hamster Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 Scu, if you are seriously offering to create a programme can you get steve grant to send us all an e-mail addy for our CV's please? It would be great I reckon and if done quickly we could sell a bit of advertising, might I suggest that Goodies Fish and Chip shops merit a free full page ad for their fantastic deeds last weekend too?

SaintKenny Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 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... You are only playing 45minutes as well! Looks like I have my work cut out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scudamore Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 Scud are you organising this then - what do you want or need from us? I am working on it as we speak! I think player profiles are going to be unlikely on the basis that we've struggled to get sock sizes out of some members! However i would like a paragraph or two from both of our gaffers. And maybe if people feel they have something interesting to add we can look at it. I'll make the PDF available once i've got something together to make sure everyone's happy before i go to print! The basic form will be as follows: 1) Cover page 2) Home team page including managers notes and team extras 3) Away team page including managers notes and team extras 4) Team line up including first scorer odds, team numbers positions etc. I'm open to suggestions of course...but i can't promise the lamer ones will make it in i'm afraid!

stevegrant Posted 29 April, 2009 Author Share Posted 29 April, 2009 Surprise surprise, just over a week to go and a rather major headache has developed... Long story short, the club have sold all the adult-sized grey shirts, so there aren't any left for us (despite having reserved them a month ago, and the people involved at the club read the forum on a daily basis). As a result, they have offered us last season's yellow shirts instead. We're not in a position to turn this down for several reasons, so that's what we're going to have to go with. Needless to say, I'm not overly happy with the situation, but not a great deal I can do about it, sadly. Due to the timescales involved (and the lack of likelihood of acquiring yellow shorts/socks ), we'll stick with the grey shorts/socks combination for the away kit.

Not happy about this.I think the club should donate a full set of shorts to match the shirts as it will look poor and the team who are trooping out onto the pitch will lose a little of the nights experience as the spectators will be taking the rip.
