Title: Your chance to be Michael Pook
Post by: donkey on Wednesday, January 16, 2008, 20:51:14
Do you want to play football for Swindon?  If so, read on...

Swindon Town have had an internet supporters football team since 1997, and every year since then we have entered the prestigious event of Worldnet.  Worldnet is a tournament for fans - see http://www.boocock.net/ifa/fanbantanet08/ for details.

The tournament will take place in Leeds (at the Uni at Boddington Hall) on the weekend of 18/19/20 July.  Games will be played on the Saturday and Sunday, but we need to be up there on the Friday to drink beer at uni prices  :beers: , and outsing random Scottish teams in the bar.

Games are 11 a side and 15 minutes each way.  We should play either three or four matches on the Saturday (group stage), with Sunday being the knockout stage.

This is a call for players of all standards to stand up and be counted for Swindon Town. If you are free to play, the cost for registration and accommodation for 2 nights B&B is £80.

I'll happily answer any questions, Tails plays each year and can probably answer some too.  Bennett and Crouchie have expressed an interest so maybe we can get a good TEF presence.

Come on you reds.

Before I post the answer I want to spell out I was not manager last year.

We lost every game, we didn't even score! :oops:

We will be better this year (couldn't be worse), we have a better squad, and I'm back in charge  :wink:

And Sonic, don't worry about fitness, we have five rolling subs per game, me and you can just swap every 15 miunutes  :wink:

Trust me DV, a few beers will be fine, my best matches have with hangovers, just ask Tails dad, who made me play with a stinking hangover.

Flammable, you have always amused me on this forum, for that reason alone I'm sure we can come to an arrangement over payment of subs.

We do have a keeper, but two is always good.  If you were to come up I would guarantee you at least one game on the Saturday.  If you can offer any other positions that would be good too.

And as for you Tails, I've got you and Pete, if Adam comes that's 21.

Yep, I'll be there on Saturday, anyone who wants to pay me then to guarantee their place, I'd be most grateful (especially as I'm currently out of pocket, having paid the entrance fee).

Cheers for the offer kind sir. Can't really commit to anything that far away.  Also it sounds like it's at a time which reminds me that my cousin's wedding might be then. Not that I can find the invitation to check.

I am, and so is my mate Pete who was at Forest Green but now plays Saturday and Sunday league football.. He did play for DV's side. He's going to Australia soon and will be back just in time for it so I think he'll be a bit rusty.

There's two guys from Hull who are both pretty decent. Hopefully we'll have Peter Hilton back as he's a great CB, and a bloke called Bunny who we missed last year. Then there's 4 young guys (even younger than I am) who are OK, one of thems a goalkeeper and can be pretty indecisive. We've got donkey who's name nicely sums him up tbh, a bloke called Mike upfront who's pretty decent and then I don't really remember the rest.

Probably not many you'd know, because i believe very few of our team are actually Swindon fans! We definitely need more players though, particularly in midfield unless the gaffer keeps up his great long ball tactics!!  :wink:

It's a good laugh definitely, we've made some good friends with other teams and I know a few of the guys on the Oxford team who are always up for a 'friendly' with us.

Probably.  I've just agreed to anyone who said they wanted to play.  I thereofre actually don't really know the make up ofthe squad!

Tails summed things up rather well.  Bunny is a centre midfielder, who works in the RAF, fit as a buitcher's dog.  The young players sometimes need looking after a bit, but with each year they get more experience and stronger.  I think the reason we were so poor last year we that we were missing our two best players, and a lot of our squad were young.  Both those players are back, the young have got bigger and more experienced, and we have a bigger squad thanks to the TEF.

It's seven months away, bit I'm getting quite exited.

Provided everyone who says they can play makes it (including our motivational coach Flammable) we now have 21 (also including Land of Bo), out of a maximum squad of 22.

Off to the pub now for beer and pizza, and then the Leicester Comedy Festival Preview Show.  Provided the game is on tomorrow, I'll be outside the club shop at 1-30pm if anyone is in position to pay me.

I think you've hit the nail on the head there.

Me being one of the younger players it is really tough to walk into games like that but I'm getting older, fitter and stronger now and after two tournaments I'm getting to grips with it. I was part of a pretty shambolic defence last year, although I think our managers random formations didn't really help! With Pete back it'll be much better IMO, as we've got a bit of a leader.

A squad of 22 will be ace (especially compared to our squad of 13 last year). Means players can actually get a rest!

Not sure how to fully resolve this, I think I might wait, in the expectation that at least two people will drop out (this usually happens).  Once I get the remaining five people's details I'll email you all.

At the moment (seven months until the event) I expect a couple make drop out anyway...thanks for the offer.

Mex, I can add you to the list (no. 25 in a maximum squad of 22).  Please PM me your email addy and name.

Oh and I'll not be outside theclub shop until 2pm, should anyone wish to say hello (or give me cash  :wink: )

I'll be at Forest on Saturday if anyone wants to give me a cheque/cash, coz I could do with the money.

Following a couple of drop outs I have two spaces in the squad, I know Mex, Sippo and Flammable have expressed interest...but anyone else who is interested let me know.

No chance I'll be able to afford it I'm afraid.  

Unless I invent a new super drug which can be easily made from household items.


Try some pesticides Ben, The main ingredient of yabba is pesticides. A google search should reveal all.

We have at least one place if anyone wants it.

To those who want to play, please send me the money asap.

Erm...we're a bit fucked to be honest.  Loads have dropped out for a variety of reasons...anyone want to step in to the breach (or if you still intend to play we need the money to pay the b&b costs by the end of the month).

All help needed (even those that dive at the CG are welcome :wink: )

The last post...the final request...it just got cheaper!

All I need is £20 and you're in!

Why?  Well we are no longer staying on site, so I do not need to pay all the money up front.   We will be staying in a B&B in Headingley (not far from Leeds Uni), which will cost about £45 per twin room per night...you can pay that yourself in July.

So anyone now think they might be able to make it?  If you can send me £20 by 14 June I can book your place in a B&B.  (If the TEF bbq is still on that day, and someone puts me up, then I'll be there...can collect then!).

We will have enough for a squad...but the more the merrier.

Any questions, please ask.
