Northern 5-a-side Footy Team!?

[TurboMac]

Gaz Taylor has put a post up to organise a team from W.Midlands.

see his post here

I'd be up for being in a Northern team to play against them (as long as the date/time was OK).

Anyone else? Preferably good footballers, but if not whoever...

[TurboMac]

Am I on my own!!?

[offtheclockuk]

hiya mate,
i would be happy to stand as a last resort for yer team, its been a while since i played football (at school)and im no ronaldo lmao but what the hell i need the excercise for sure.

Hi, if i could play, i would, but i cant, honestly!!! Was never a footie kinda person!!

Sorry chaps. Top idea though.

[TurboMac]

hmmm... so only TWO of us so far...

Ronaldo actually lives just round the corner from me, so if we cant get any more, i might have try and persuade him to buy a new VXR & join Mig

[david sadler]

Hi Chris, great idea for footy, and I hope you sort something out. Unfortunately I stopped playing regular, 11 years ago, see my profile LOL. Regards Dave

[GazTaylor]

Come on guys... Us west mids guys are just itchin to beat ya all... lol

Only joshin... But i can promise you it will be a great laugh... and maybe even involve a trophy...

[TurboMac]

Anyone else then...?

(hopefully i'll be at the NW meet tomorrow, so you can give me all your excuses then)

[TurboMac]

bttt. we've got 3 so far...

C'mon... if we can just get a couple more, then we can arrange summat against the West Mids lot.

[GazNofx]

I'm in mate, put me down.

[TurboMac]

Cool, thats 4 players... just 1 more and then we can arrange a game against West Mids.

I was also thinking that it'd be cool to get some of our own tops, with Migweb North on the front and maybe a Name & No. on the back lmao , as long, as it doesnt work out to be too expensive. I'll look into it... Or if anyone knows anybody in the shirt manufacturing/printing business??

If we do, i'm tempted to bagsey No. 7 for me lmao , but if ya could let me know your No. preference & more importantly your size (i.e. large/extra large). And any other comments would be welcome...

Cheers

Number nine , i'd be a large size mate.

[TurboMac]

There seems to be quite a few NEW Northern Members in here, so...

I thought I'd bump up this thread to see if any of you newbies play football, casue we just need another 1 or 2 players and then we can arrange a game with West Mids.

[--roybacer--]

ill play if your desperate!! lol
used to play five a side every week, its good for a laugh!!!

[GazNofx]

Gettin there, we got enough for a team yet Mac?

[TurboMac]

well yeah, I've got 5 people that have said yes provisonally, but not sure if getting them all together on one day will be as easy lmao (so maybe 1 or 2 more would be nice...??)

but in theory - YES, we got a game!! So where? & when?

I would suggest indoor at this time of year, so we dont all catch pnemonia or wotever lmao there's quite a few places in Manchester. Trafford Park is very easy to get to (hint hint)

[--roybacer--]

id be willing to travel if i have to, is it just turn up for a game then bugger off home or is there something else happening?

[GazNofx]

Trafford Park sounds good.

[markjd]

I would be up for this if ya need another one bit of notice would be nice to get back up to speed

[TurboMac]

So to recap the squad includes-

TurboMac (Chris)
offtheclockuk (james)
imscherkris
Gaznofx
roybacer
markjd

We just need to arrange a couple of dates with West Mids. So I need to know when everybody is available...?

Possibly weekend afternoon/evening? or...?

[--roybacer--]

i can be free pretty much anytime as long as i got a weeks notice
stupid question but what we wearing? bibs or are you getting some t shirts printed (id be happy to pay for one if so)

[GazNofx]

Well most weekday nights i'm free apart from Thurs and Fri, but not Saturday afternoon as i'm usually watching football.

Sunday afternoon, how does that sound?

[markjd]

I work late shift so weekday evenings are out for me unless i get a bit of notice and i can get it off then

[TurboMac]

It looks like a Weekend afternoon/evening suits most people. just been speakin to Gaz from West Mids and we got some provisional dates for the home & away footy games.

Sat 19 / Sun 20 Febraury (North)
Sat 26 / Sun 27 February (W-Mids)

please let us know if you're available on these dates...?
