More than happy to run a match report for the forum!!! The email which nickh hasn't had says they're looking at charging a fiver for adults, which will go either to charity, Saints in the Community or SOSaints depending on the circumstances by then. I think it's pretty short notice to get a programme in place, though I'd be happy to provide an extensive list of my former clubs (lifted from a note I put on Facebook, cos yeah, damn I'm exciting).

Granty's got some previous with Match Programmes, but he is a very busy chappy... You'll probably struggle to keep it to a sheet of A4, though that is the best option for simplicity, it doesn't even have to be in colour. Now we can start arguing about what should be on the cover... I say a massive photo of me ! :cool: Seriously though a picture of the Stadium (maybe with the statue) is probably the best bet, then we don't have warring egos (see my comments above ) and that's what it's all about really innit ?

dubai_phil Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 Right. Sorted. Hotel booked Rental car booked, arrangements made to collect our world class CB ringer from the station. Hmm previous football experience.... nope still haven't thought of any although I suppose scoring a late winner in the local Derby against Damerham about 32 years ago may help pad out that A4 page or of course the own goal against Porton Down with two left boots...

I need some good insider info on any threats to our glorious victory I know stevegrant, pride of the south and Banana Factor (the goalie). I'd start on the keeper's injuries, but I think there may be Forum crashing problems or bandwidth issues. I've also seen JustMike at Fleming Park and probably a couple of others but I won't know until I see them... I should point out they also know me and lee_saint.

Justmike has already been sorted by Griffo.Those 2 are going to spend the whole time trying to nutmeg each other.Im considering just giving them a ball and leaving them to their own game. So is the keeper dodgy or just a complete liability? Granty is going to receive special attention Im going to get Baj to man mark him.

I have got plans for Baj to use the JPSize hold around the neck for 90 minutes. Keeper is good, but very injury prone. I wouldn't ask Baj to mark anyone, he'll be up front in gay boots running in on goal, assuming he can still run that is, I haven't seen him play for about 3 years. Just get a fat bloke to sit on Granty, that'll nullify him. I do mean sit on, literally, as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scudamore Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 lol me too :-) I remember saying to hamster that im not sure how the hell im going to last for 90 mins!! The step up from a five-a-side (30m x 17.5m pitch) to six-a-side (50m x 30m) was surprisingly painful! On the plus side a quick check on google maps revealed St Mary's pitch to only be about 110m x 76m! *shudder* I expect most of my crosses to be coming from deep within the half...and St Kenny to be exposed in a way that only a full back who has played with Ryan Smith could possibly understand!
