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).

Yeah i wasn't actually thinking of getting something properly printed here. Maybe just an A4 folded in half with front page, back page with line ups, and some gumph on the inner pages.

 

All ran off my work printer when the boss has gone home...

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 ?

I have great expectations of The9 up front. You say you can provide a list of clubs you played for, that could be a plus or a minus of course.i have been thrown out of loads of clubs!!!

I don't think there are enough trees in the world to fit that list, to be honest... :smt117

Oooooooh. i better go and review my list of hopes to be the hero on the day

[dubai_phil]

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... (thanks mum)

You won't have heard of any of them, don't worry. Except maybe my current team, the mighty "Southampton Internet FC", propping up the Sholing Press League Sunday Division 5.

 

But on the bright side, only 2 of our players are registered for them and 3 of the opposition

So you know 3 of the opposition.....any injuries we should be concentrating on! I need some good insider info on any threats to our glorious victory

He probably knows as much about football management as Lionel Richie though

Division 4, actually

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.

[The9]

I was assuming they'd want to create us our own division next season as we are clearly in a League of our own...

yes and Baj and i have seen Neilza once up there too

Oops, mustn't upset Bajabajabajasnaaaake, at least not until he goes miles offside and won't pass to me...

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.

haha, in a recent game at fleming park, Hamster referred to him as "the one leaning on the goal post all game"

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...

[OldNick]

Looks like i might be risking infractions as baj will be getting the hairdryer at half time if he doesnt put a shift in.I assume being manager i have the power to substitute malingerers

[OldNick]

I feel wanted again as I have received my e-mail from SG

[dubai_phil]

meanwhile, where's my email with all the details??

 

You guys keep chatting, we're enjoying it. We love that whole "we're gonna do this and this and this stuff"

 

Just remember, I taught Fergie all he knows about psyching out the opposition. You keep it coming dudes

 

ha got the email while typing this!

The only Fergie you taught was the ginger bird that now is the face of weigh****chers. I saw how you trained her for The Royal Its a Knockout.

I respectfully suggest your pysching out by using the 'silent treatment' isnt very effective on the internet.

[OldNick]

GAFFER!!!! you're even trying to nick my name.

Actually she's a singer from over the pond - not a bad one actually.

She quite likes the welcome and hospitality she has had on her couple of trips to see me.

 

Sorry I have been a little quiet the last two days been a bit busy surfing the internet to find a f&^%$%%ing motor car to rent when I get in.

What is WRONG with you people?

Why you all think it would be cool to rent an eff&^%$^ing car for the Bank Holiday weekend.

Couldn't get a cheap rate anywhere.

Full price - bstds.....

 

Be warned I don't need anything to get psyched up on the day. I'll just look at the eff#$@^^ing rental car bill

Sorry to ask and I am sure the question has already been answered on this thread somewhere............... but can anyone attend and observe?

Yep I'm sure they'll post the full details nearer the time ticket prices etc

 

Should be the best entertainment of the season at SMS....

Well, at least the funniest

Oh one of those leftie liberal thinking coaches eh. My lads will be told 'run and kick the f#####s where it hurts', and then play the beautiful game when your lot are rolling around the ground crying like girls

[Griffo]

My tank is never empty, I will just keep on running and running. If you leave me to the right back that's dangerous . You should be goal side. Pfft, I'm going to keep a record of how many times I nutmeg you

[Andy_Porter]

Ha, i'm definatly on the right team then!

[Scudamore]

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!

 

However i will translate that to the positive. I will be providing an outlet on the left wing...and playing pinpoint through balls...

[Griffo]

ha, i'm definatly on the right team then!

 

Go'arn Andy!

[OldNick]

Ha, i'm definatly on the right team then!

Yep I hope you are sharpening your toe caps Andy. Phils lot are spending a team bonding day at the manicurists. Their boots are going to be as colourful as the footwear of the town twinning of Brighton and San Fransisco.

well i think it is that big already, its half a full size pitch but going the other way, if you get my meaning? And as its just a mess around you always get the guys who refuse to run at all so you end up doing their covering back etc.

I assure you there won't be any of this, people have paid to play in certain positions and they'll bloody well play there ! ;-)
