F*cking hell! Wish i was 10 years younger! (or my current age of 37 but without the body of a 60 year old and the fitness of a beached porpoise which has just spent the best part of it's day struggling to get back in the sea before some chavs come along and attack it with sticks and boxes of matches).

Not fair this, can we have a veterans game where ex-players play against elder members on here or younger members with weight problems? I could do that.

Like i said, i could be manager, a modern day Brian Clough but with issues!

NOTE: I haven't actually got weight problems, it's my bones, they're too big for my body see.

More than up for this, could probably provide a bit of pace out
wide with my youth.

probably get slaughtered unless we mix it up a little with the pros and fans

No ringers! I've heard all about you, Mr Semi-Pro!

Anyone else?


Matt.

All I have is a long-throw and more pace than Nico!

That's a long thrown then...

Matt.

Fortunately Matt I did mean scoring in the footballing sense, in front of the family stand with a header!! My poor girlfriend has had a verbal replay more times than she has cared to listen to!

...should have seen that one coming!

This is a brilliant idea. I'd love to do it. Fitness not great these days but still have the ability of at least 10 Lee Thorpes. (or 1 Rene Howe at the current exchange rate). Although I live in a different country so that sucks.

If you could make it July 27th I'll be there, though. I've no worry about humiliating myself. I've done it plenty of times before at Clennon Valley 7s.

Speak to my agent-will require a hefty signing on fee,win bonus,club car,and % of gate takings(lets start negotiating at 35%)!

Can I run on with the magic sponge, as and when required? :devil: (Or at my own discretion)

I have a feeling that, if it happens, Knilly will want to play it earlier rather than later, so I'd guess July 27th will be a little late, but I'll keep you in mind.

Check Andy's response e on the "Ideas for Mr Candy" thread.

Bugger.

Oh well. Saves Mr. Knill having to be disappointed when I turn down the contract offer that is sure to be forthcoming after my performance.

He's available and willing to pay his own transfer fee to join up with us again

If this is serious, Id play.

A little bit of background history. I scored a 30 yard screamer for TUFC fans versus Bristol Rovers fans in 2005 with my weaker left foot. Id dont know if robc still reads these boards but he can vouch that it was in no way a completely fluked mishit from 18 yards. Later in the day, Morike Sako liked what he sae and banged in a last minute winner in what I recall was an exact replica of my goal.

In my early years I both nutmegged Ashley Bayes (he definitely didnt let me) and hit Darren Moore on the back with a wayward pass as mascot vs Chesterfield in 1994 on my 11th Birthday.

I also have tucking away a penalty against Peter Shilton at a (shamefully) PAFC soccer school.

I played a season for The Hurricanes (exact replica kit to boot) in The West London Amateur Prem, and am currently part of the force thay is becomingThe Swan and Pedalo in the Monday Night Filton Goals Division 2, where we are top after 4 games following back to back promotions.

Quite the resume, Im sure you'll agree!!

well, if we played the team that we had from the forum that played v the excretia forum, then we'd spank them 4-0.

no problem.
