Should split UEFA & FIFA competitions into cups and shields with winners of shield getting into the next cup.

Bellsview Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 My dad’s 77th birthday tomorrow so spending some time with him.

Frickley only get about 4-500 per game, so new fans can only be a good thing. A decent percentage is kids. Last time I went, the food was pretty good and reasonably priced, so I'll end up spending a bit on food and drink. It's only £7 for an adult anyway, so they'll make it up on concessions.

Tewksbury Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 (edited) Frickley drew 0-0 with Tadcaster. Little one lasted till full time, which isn't bad for a 6 year old. Forgot how windy it is on Frickley hill, knew I'd fucked up when I went in and saw all the massive coats and bobble hats. Frickley play in the Wednesday template kit from last season, saw some of the Frickley version of the green macron Chris Powell bobble hats, tried to get one but they'd sold out. Chips, pie, peas and gravy for a fiver, £2.70 for chips and gravy, spent about £16 all in with the ticket. Can't argue with that. All in all, decent afternoon out, little one enjoyed it and wants to go again Edited March 23 by Tewksbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was niggly on and off the pitch all game but really kicked off after a Heanor defender got sent off for bringing down the Hucknall forward through on goal. The ref bottled at least one more red as Heanor then decided they were just gonna snap players. Finished 2-2 as Hucknall couldn't capitalise and then their support started to exit and found Heanor waiting in the car park. Mostly kids, who looked like they'd robbed a JD Sports, but quite a few old boys egging them on from behind. A few cars got damaged. Worse I saw was one fella pushed his way through with a couple of young lads, put them in the car then flew into the middle of a group and slapped about five of them before they knew what was happening. God knows what his kids thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still play. Primarily futsal and 6-a-side. Our futsal season finished last weekend and I play in two 6-a-side leagues that start in April (two different teams). I’m over 40 but still play in the normal leagues and not in the over 35’s. I’m signed to an 11-a-side team but only play if they are short of players, which last season, was way more than I wanted it to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not competitive but play five a side twice a week. One game mix of ages from 18 to 60 and other game Dads v Lads. So late 40's to late 50's against 18 to 23 year old. Proper tough game that.

HoylandOwl Posted March 25 Author Share Posted March 25 I've given walking footy a go on and off over the last 12 months, as it's the only way my right knee says, yeah that sort of football is ok and I won't collapse on you. Played last Monday against Russ Wilcox, (yes that one) and a load of other old boys who play for Donny's walking footy side who I'm led to believe played decent non league/league 2 level. They were chuffing good players still, can pick a pass. Russ tried nutmegging me, and called it. Didn't work. I caught him out and nicked the ball off him. Naturally I had to poke fun at him after the game, and he admitted I'd made him look at bit of a pillock. There's quite a few ex pros playing so I'm led to believe, Forest apparently have a few more 'recent' pros turn out for them now and again.

Lad I work with went to a walking football session last week in Rotherham. Said only 4 turned up so he is trying to enlist me. Might give it a go.

I slid in at back post to make it 2-2 in last minute, got gobbed on and swung at from 5 or 6 big lads. Never said a dickie or really celebrated. (Bottled it). I had to be escorted of the pitch by the ref, lino's and most of our players. Tbh I did get home very early that night. Is it legal to drive in football boots. Baring that in mind, I'm off to Sunderland with winco and our young un. Maybe it's groundhog day 20 years later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always recall watching my step brother play in the County Senior League one time up at Mexborough or the like. A feisty game, but one where the smallish crowd to start with started to grow a bit, cars turning up with 3 or 4 tough types getting out. I think the ref called time on the game though that recollection is more blurred. I just recall being happy escaping the place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get a few going it can still get the blood flowing about without haring around. We’ve had 9v9 some weeks so change to 3 touch and it’s usually just as good if not better! I can’t go after tomorrow till about October, as I mainly only play while the middle lad in our house trains on the other 4G pitch where we play next to the Imps stadium during the ‘dark nights’.
