Re: Freekickabout

Any famous cases of team-mates really hating each other?

Hope it doesn’t spiral into violence or some other untoward scenes.

Cian O’Connor and Jessica Kuerten

John Hartson and Eyal Berkovic

Well Farmer’s “I’m not going to pass to you” comment obviously evokes memories of Bowyer v Dyer

Didn’t Sheringham and Cole refuse to speak to each other when they were at ManU?

When one would score the other would shake his hand but they never spoke as far as I recall.

Seem to remember Olaf Mellberg bursting Freddie Ljungberg with a tackle in training for Sweden before a tournament a few years ago - fair play to him I say

Yeah it was funny Hartson kicking Berkovic in the head - and it was filmed and all!

I hope it does spiral into violence. Let me know when the first game is and I’ll come down and stir things up a bit. Bing bang boom.

I’m in, and I’m f**kin class too.

  1. When does this start anyway Rocko?
  2. How many definites do we have so far?
  3. How many do we need?
  4. Are we getting jersies? For another team I am involved with (in both a player manager role and at board level) we are getting the jersies here: http://www.discountfootballkits.co.uk/adidaspages06/adidaslibero06.htm
  1. Can’t remember - I’ll find out this evening.
  2. We have 4 definites off-site then another 5 here I think plus a few more probables - plenty of numbers anyway
  3. We need a squad of 10 or eleven registered I think but we can always have more and just rotate it among ourselves - most people can’t go every week I’d imagine
  4. I’m looking into kit - I’ll have a look at that site too.

Yeah it will be rolling subs. Some of our players (not looking at you Bandage) might literally roll on and off the pitch.

Went for a little 3-a-side on Wednesday evening and fitness was an absolute disgrace. The lads I was with wre able to run for the hour. I was playing the Molby role after 5 minutes, calf muscles cramping like bejaysus. I suspect that I spend too much time drinking and not enough time exercising.

I’ve played a couple of eleven a side games the past couple of weeks and I’ve been really struggling for fitness. We might have 6 guys on the pitch all sitting in the Molby role.

We’ll need a Le Tissier I suspect.

Right the definitive team gathering exercise for this thing.

We need at least 6 players from here to sign up for the team - I’ve 5 from elsewhere. The cost is EUR 125 each, though if we have more players from here we might split the money another way and share out the games (22 games in the league I think).

The venue is more than likely to be YMCA in Sandymount but it’s first come, first served and we need the money before we can guarantee our place in the league.

So for the final time sign up here if you’re definitely interested and that involved getting money to me by the middle of next week.

Time and dates Rock please

As in when is the first game? I presume its on a weekly basis on Monday nights

I’m in if it is Sandymount - can you PM us bank details or somethin Rocko so we can transfer the cash?

Did I mention I’m class too?

I’ll PM bank details to everyone who is interested on Monday or Tuesday.

It should be weekly on Mondays in Sandymount at various times - schedule will be confirmed shortly.

What date does it start? Roughly…

Why all the questions Farmer? To be honest I’m questioning your desire to play, all these demands sound mercenary to me.

By the way Rocko - is it astro.ie we’re playing in? And if so what grade?
