The Doctor Posted 26 March 2011 Posted 26 March 2011 that's a good point actually dj barry hammond - i play goalkeeper as well, just to warn you though, i deal with crosses like ricardo (although that doesn't matter here) and the general shot-stopping ability of jim leighton.

If you can't catch or stop shots, what are you doing playing in goal?
lildave3 Posted 27 March 2011 Posted 27 March 2011 If you can't catch or stop shots, what are you doing playing in goal? Maybe he has an irrational fear of antelopes?
The Doctor Posted 28 March 2011 Posted 28 March 2011 Maybe he has an irrational fear of antelopes? Antelopes? anyway i can catch, i just prefer to punch and shot-stopping - it's actually not that bad, i just make a few too many howlers.
davieG Posted 29 March 2011 Author Posted 29 March 2011 Have contacted St Margaret's and it's either Saturday 9th July from 9-12 or Sunday. Can people let me know if they prefer the Saturday morning or should we change to a Sunday? Why do these things always turnout to be so complicated?

Can people let me know if they prefer the Saturday morning or should we change to a Sunday? Why do these things always turnout to be so complicated? Stick with the original plan of saturday.
davieG Posted 29 March 2011 Author Posted 29 March 2011 Stick with the original plan of saturday. Will people be prepared to be there by 8.45 after a Friday night of drink, drugs and rock and roll
The Doctor Posted 29 March 2011 Posted 29 March 2011 8:45! 10:45 - of course but 8:45 is too early to be doing anything on a saturday.
DB11 Posted 29 March 2011 Posted 29 March 2011 If I was to be refereeing then it could only be the Saturday.
davieG Posted 30 March 2011 Author Posted 30 March 2011 Could we play this on a local park somehow, ok goal posts and balls disappearing across the park maybe a problem but at least we could play when we wanted and for free
General Smuts Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 Could we play this on a local park somehow, ok goal posts and balls disappearing across the park maybe a problem but at least we could play when we wanted and for free We could just half (halve?) the pitches at Viccy Park maybe? Although personally i preferred the small goals etc. There's loads of other astroturf pitches with multiple 5-a-side pitches in Leicester surely? Theres one at Groby College for certain.

Can people get to them?
General Smuts Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 Can people get to them? If people were catching buses to St mags itd just be another bus out again for most places i imagine. And those who were driving would be fine anyway surely. Saying that im coming from Hertfordshire and am not bothered where it is.
The Doctor Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 There are a couple of 5-a-side astroturf pitches on viccy park - up near DeMont hall. Open to the public (or they were last year at least, not sure about now but it'd be easy for me to check).

A few years back after walking past them, i saw a few chavs with their hoodies on in there...
ozleicester Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 Am flexible, can be sat, sun, whatever time, wherever im such a cheap football tart

General Smuts Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 Thanks I'll await your feedback. Thatd be ideally placed for the pub as well.
davieG Posted 30 March 2011 Author Posted 30 March 2011 Thatd be ideally placed for the pub as well. That'll do whether there's a pitch there or not then
General Smuts Posted 30 March 2011 Posted 30 March 2011 That'll do whether there's a pitch there or not then Truesay.
The Doctor Posted 31 March 2011 Posted 31 March 2011 They seem to be open to the public, one of the gates for each of the two pitches are permanently unlocked - owned by the football foundation and they ask that you get authorisation before using the pitches. No-one there to check though and you could probably get away with using them without authorisation.

Thanks for the info, I'll see if I can find out who you book through as I don't want to go to all the trouble of organising it and then find we can't use them.
