Post by: McLovin on Thursday, October 20, 2005, 09:57:47

Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, October 20, 2005, 09:58:55

You did look very sharp on Tuesday night Spacey.

Mrs Spacey must be about 4 foot tall, she's tiny. :)

Was good to finally see some evidence of her existance though - and to meet her of course.


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Sippo on Thursday, October 20, 2005, 20:01:06
I'll play in goal. I must admit though I had a bit of a Tom Heaton last week  :oops:


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Kinky Tom on Thursday, October 20, 2005, 20:02:17
Sounds like we could get a couple of teams together, obviously two keepers will be needed, fan being one of course.


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Johno on Thursday, October 20, 2005, 20:53:22
i can play mostly left wing or upfront.

I Can't play but I would do if for a laugh :D I'm in goal for the ladies team.Just watch the hair ok.

I play in the centre mid or on the wing.

Would you wanna get a few teams together?? I can get my fellow hanson buddy to come along - he's at forest green at the moment, decent player.

In my younger days I played against a selection of the Swindon Town Ladies and Swindon Spitfires teams.  We won 11-1 and I scored their goal!

Yeah, but it's an agent's coat that, not a manager's coat - too flash, and not cheesey enough. You could show mex some dubious video of a dodgy French player who looks great on the tape but turns out to be "challenged" in the cow's arse/barn door department.


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Rossi on Friday, October 21, 2005, 00:40:49
You tend not to have centre mids or right wingers in 5-a-side Tails, it's basically either you attack or you defend or you go in goal...


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: McLovin on Friday, October 21, 2005, 08:43:20
I'll hang around at the back, soaking up their attacks, and occasionally kicking a 'fancy dan' twinkle toes up front.  Then playing it long.


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Kinky Tom on Friday, October 21, 2005, 08:47:56
I like to sit just in front of the defence.  I win all the headers too. :wink:

That's only cos you're so tall, she's actually 6ft 2.

If its the same as the 5-a-side I go to then 1. it's not allowed over head height and 2. Your not allowed to head the ball or the other team gets a freekick


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Kinky Tom on Friday, October 21, 2005, 11:07:09
Thats crap though, I maintain that the ball should be able go above head height.

Still I'm so tall that my head height is higher than anyone else.

Also what if the only what you can get to a ball is a diving header at waist height?  Crap rules imo!


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side
Post by: Kinky Tom on Friday, October 21, 2005, 11:08:19
Further to that this is supposed to be fun to raise money for the club, so silly rules like that should be left out.

The league I played never had rules like that, my side were long ball exponents.


Title: 24 hour 5-a-side

not aimed at you personally Dan, but if you fall into that category, then yes...

Is that in the cages at Abbey Meads? That's one of the leagues I play in, the referee's are shocking most of the time and always give a freekick the wrong way for over head height. Just do away with the rule!

Post by: sonicyouth on Friday, October 21, 2005, 13:34:17
Shall we start organising some teams for this 5-a-side or what? Seems pointless having loads of people for one team, we could probably put out two or three which would create more money for the club, no?

If you do it somewhere nearer Abingdon then I'd be interested perhaps, but if it's going to be Swindon I'll have to give it a miss - not really worth it.

I havent got a Swindon card personally, but I do have the number for a work mates card as we use his one when we book Croft Tuesday lunch times.

I'd be up for a game at the Oasis....cant do Wednesday evenings thats about it....

I could get some more players if we needed.

Do we need two set goalies or would everyone take turns, I can get my hands on a goalie....
