Summers Posted 21 October, 2013 Share Posted 21 October, 2013 How'd you get on Steve? Citeh at home might be a good game to try an arrange to get our own back for Worldnet? Especially with the travelling they'd have to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 21 October, 2013 Author Share Posted 21 October, 2013 Got battered 10-1 - they were a very good side to be fair to them, much younger and fitter as well. 6 of our 11 were over 30. Thought we played some decent stuff in patches, created a few chances especially in the second half when their defence switched off a bit. I don't think City are able to get a side down to us for that game, unfortunately, as they've all organised a trip to Munich the week before to watch them get their arses handed to them on a plate by Bayern again.

The9 Posted 21 October, 2013 Share Posted 21 October, 2013 Missed a talismanic presence in the number 9 shirt if you ask me. I had assumed you got battered by the complete lack of mentions of the match by anyone anywhere. What's the Worldnet qualification cut-off for games played?

I had assumed you got battered by the complete lack of mentions of the match by anyone anywhere. What's the Worldnet qualification cut-off for games played? My first XI a side games in about 5 years told both in terms of fitness and the ability to play a simple 10 yard pass!! They were a very good side with some excellent players, particularly the lad in centre midfield who was superb and their two strikers. All very fit and play together every week. Good finish from Mr Grant for our one moment of glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 21 October, 2013 Share Posted 21 October, 2013 They were very good, very quick and fit but I enjoyed the challenge and we had some half decent moments in the game ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewell Posted 21 October, 2013 Share Posted 21 October, 2013 Got battered 10-1 I think we had the last laugh though. It would have been good to see there faces at the final whistle of the 2nd match that day. Fair play to all those still playing, particularly the over 30's. You need to play as long as you can as you never know when you may not be able to and then you will miss it. Also not an easy thing to organise playing a game a few 100 miles from home so top effort all round especially to Mr Grant. So who really gives a **** about the score?

Was there any dressing room unrest? Must be hard sitting down together when some might've disagreed about the validity of a transfer rumour or whether Ramirez is any good, What are their saintsweb names? it would kind of spoil the mystique knowing Turkish had a real name though Edited 22 October, 2013 by whelk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveyR Posted 22 October, 2013 Share Posted 22 October, 2013 Still aching. And I fit into the over 40 bracket and it showed, good laugh though. Nice to meet some of the posters off here. Did enjoy the second match of the day more though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
