Finners, syston_fox, do you want to pick the under 21's?

Jake if you want to play then you can.

Everyone can play if there's enough space, even Shingler. These were set up as light hearted fun, get involved and meet people. Even if there are too many people come along anyway. You can watch, plus the likelehood is that not everyone will turn up anyway.

It's going to be a fair game with us only having 4 subs! I take that it's still rolling subs?

We only had one in the first game! Plus me in goal! And a linesman who was against us!

Well I'm likely to be in London about 3ish on my own, so a half day would be greatly appreciated :P

I can be out of work from about half 5, maybe a little earlier. Not at 3 though!

Looking at the squad.

1. We don't have a keeper.

2. Were lacking up front. Only Tomassi is an out and out striker with me, Sparky and Finners part timers.

3. We have a fook load of centre mids.

Not taking into account Fox123 whose position i don't know. And Sir Fyn and Alex whom aren't confirmed.

I confirmed that I'm definitely not coming! I even updated the list! How the hell has my name ended up back on the list? Who copied an old version of it? Idiots, the lot of you. I can't work with this. I'm off.

Yea exactly the same from me I turned up at St. Mags for my first game and i'm pretty confident people would of thought I was a dick because of how I am on FT. But I got on with it and got involved with most of the people.

This match has had a right dampner put on it just because we agreed on only having 15 players in our squad for the game and people who arent even in our age bracket are moaning.

It started with C man saying you only had 4 subs so i offered a solution . Have a read , you will soon see

The general spirit of this forum is banter but some people don't want the banter from the Alberts, Cheds, JMEs and Joes down there.

Biggest load of bollox ever written , i go out of my way to speak to 3 out of that 4 where i ever i may see them . In reality you guys are cracking bunch of lads

I was well up for a laugh for this game but people coming ranting off about a team that doesnt really have nothing to do with them then it takes the light off it abit for me. So if thats me being dramatic then fair enough.

It is fairly dramatic , my mention to allow two more player in your squad was only an idea which i ended with "its your call" . Bert came on and said you were happy with 15 and ended the debate which is more than fair enough . To be honest the gloss has been taken off this event for me also with this , its about having a giggle , going for a drink after and having plenty of banter , nothing more or less

Exactly it's a shame a few others didnt understand Bert when he said the squad is only 15 players.

I just want to clear one or two things up.

Firstly it's hard enough to organise the team, getting in touch with everyone, making sure everyone knows where we're playing, what time it is, what kit we're wearing and so on.

I can see where people are coming from saying it shouldn't be exclusive, and it isn't. Uncle Albert didn't play the first two, but played the third, JoeyB and Michael The Work Geordie haven't yet played in one of these but they will be this time.

We've always said or at least tried to maintain that priority goes to the people that played in the last match and again that's what we've tried to do. There was a big gathering before christmas and we all had a chat about what we thought was best, the main issue that was brought was squad size.

Now, this wasn't brought up because people are being selfish for more pitch time, but because we don't want people to turn up, and moan that they didn't get to play as long as everyone else.

Finally, I don't decide what happens with the u21's on my own, I try and get in touch with everyone and see what they think of the situation. They give their opinion and again it's discussed on the whole. After taking everyone's suggestions, I simply see what the majority decision is and then finalise it to try and make as many people happy as possible.

You may think we're taking this too seriously, but that's not the case, we just want to be organised to make the day run smoothly.

To be fair, I did mean that I thought it was good that we only had 4 subs. I didn't think it was fair on IF last time where we turned up with 2 teams and obviously the superior fitness at the end would win through, (that and having Bert and JME destroying them).

Personally, I think it's about having a laugh, but I think people have to take it a little seriously, otherwise there would be no point, we may aswell just go down the boozer if no-one was trying to win the game.

Bert's done his best to make it fair for everyone, and the inclusion of MTWG and JoeyB prove this. I can't believe people are criticising him for not allowing others to participate. At the end of the day it was the group's decision and I can see why a lot of people don't want Jake to play.

But if he has the pace he showed running off from that steward at Swindon, then I'm sure we could accomodate him in a sort of Elvis Hammond role. :P

To be honest bud , as long as we get a decent number in the pub after and no one goes there trying to give it the big un then i aint fussed

It is blue but I might just wear my 'Fritzl 7' Austria shirt.

Haven't actually got one of these just to reassure you, but if anyone knows where I can pick one up please let me know.

What shall I wear? Berner 31 Leicester shirt? It's a great shirt but a tad small to contain my Christmas pounds.

Have you been at the large boys again Ryan?

Loaded Doggage. It's all sorted :thumbup: at least there's no screens in there you can send texts to and make me cry :(

:D You big girls blouse.

OOOOOOOOOOOH Fezzler is half Welshman,

He wears a Welshman's hat,

He's gonna live with Katy,

In a Norf'amp'n council flat!

He Smurfs Her With His Left Ball

He Smurfs Her With His Right

And when he's had a Magners, He Smurfs all fooking night!

[i'll leave it to Smutts to get to the bit that ends 'all fooking night', I really am off to sleep! Ciao y'all!]

That's not even a tiny bit funny Finners. I can't imagine Fez living in a council flat. Now be off with you!

Better?

Nope, they are just winding me up as usual. It's soooo last year.

Must bite toungue ...

I am sure like most you will be welcome, I am saying that an I haven't met anyone yet just stuck my name down. Bring your camera though, there could be some potentially funny sigs to be made :P
