JN9 Posted 24 April, 2013 Share Posted 24 April, 2013 Is this quite a regular thing? I'll be looking to play some weekend football again next year, and this looks right up my street... Sadly even if there was a open slot I couldn't make this one, but I'd be very interested in the future. I generally play right back or right wing and I'd describe myself as somewhere between poor and average (I'd fit right in by the sounds of things).

stevegrant Posted 24 April, 2013 Author Share Posted 24 April, 2013 Hoping it'll be more regular next season, playing games against other fans teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 25 April, 2013 Share Posted 25 April, 2013 Hoping it'll be more regular next season, playing games against other fans teams. Looks like we wont have any problems getting the numbers together if we've got 2 teams for this one. We'll just have to get on other clubs message boards a good couple of weeks in advance so they've got long enough to get a team together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll just have to get on other clubs message boards a good couple of weeks in advance so they've got long enough to get a team together. There's a long-standing email list which other team managers are subscribed to, so that side of things is already sorted. This game would have been fine but for the fairly exceptional circumstances with their manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 25 April, 2013 Share Posted 25 April, 2013 FWIW shirts are v If people want to know which colour shorts and socks they should try and bring if they can. (i.e. black shorts, red socks for home and navy/navy for away). I'm sure Steve won't give a toss if people don't match but I'll be bringing my kit OCDs.

Fairing slightly better it has to be said I didn't realise you were still even playing tbh, and I didn't know any of them in the first place. Besides, it wasn't your lot that was the problem, it was the opposition.Took that one game for me to realise I wasn't fit enough and was too injured to be competitive, you just can't make the tiny balance adjustments you need to make when you're seized up and think your knee's going to go any time you change direction. I haven't got any younger or less injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 27 April, 2013 Share Posted 27 April, 2013 The best bit had to be 3 home players all going for the same header and landing in a head on the floor. I was the right sided CB for the away team in case anyone was wondering. The dodgy one in other words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Share Posted 27 April, 2013 You couldnt have been that dodgy, you managed to keep us out of the net. Special mention to Tim from a member of the home team BTW. It was a good laugh, the three striker pileup a particular highlight, or Baj's (can we say goal ?) effort, would have been nice to put some forum names to faces though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwanamakubwa Posted 27 April, 2013 Share Posted 27 April, 2013 Number 8 home team, having switched allegiance before kick off. I liked TT's quote when free on the edge of the box and asking for a pass "make an old man happy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just gone lunging in on Rabbit and looked up to see Baj tripping over the ball and falling into the net with it stuck between his legs. Unbelievable tekkers! Definitely offside though.
