Title: Margatania F.C.
Post by: Saxondale on Saturday, September 10, 2011, 21:46:15
Excuse me for being a soppy twat, but this is a lovely little film about a kids football team who are just happy to play.  Really reminds you of why you love football.  If you're a soppy twat that is.

Ahhh bless 'em.

Cracking video. Loved it that when the goal difference was-270 there was only a slight proportion of blame associated with the keeper before deciding it wasn't really his fault.

That's a great reminder of why kids play sports. My experience of coaching is that the adults get so hung up on winning that they forget why the kids play in the first place.

Kids football was mental at times.

I played for Warminster Boys in the mid-90's and the amount of parent arguments was crazy with both parental politics within the team and then against rival sides on a Sunday.

I stopped playing for them in the end because it became pretty boring.

You from Warminster then? Were you Highbury or Town FC?!

All that and we didn't even see the goal they scored. Did ITV make this movie.
