Eye sports v PST select XI

[Ross]

Here ya go fellas. Fill ya boots

[Back of the Net]

Appreciate that Ross...

Ok here's the deal lads, Eye Sports are to play a P'Boro Sports Talk XI on Saturday 16th May at Eye's ground.
Gino will obvioulsy take charge of the favourites with the stars from Eye and my good self (assisted by a volunteer or 2?) will field a PST team from volunteers off this site - mates etc.

Right - who fancies a crack at the Eye lads then? Register your interest here or PM me with you thoughts/plans to give the Eye boys a taste of defeat.....
It's a maximum of 2 lads from any given team, no regular Saturday Prem lads, Sunday lads welcome, UCL too if we can lol.

Who's up for it? or at least gimme some suggestions of lads to approach?

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

sean im defo game for that m8!!!!*1010*

[Harbs]

well there's the weak link lads... 2 goals min!

[Back of the Net]

Great stuff a volunteer and banter from the Eye boys already, hahaha..

Shaun your names down mate, nice one.
This is the fairest way we'll do it - get as many as possible interested and then take a couple of senior (experienced) Sat and Sun lads aside to help me select the 11 with 3 subs...
Please feel free to post names/clubs of lads you think should be in a Peterborough select 11 (non Sat Prem) squad.

[Dugout 08]

I'll have a bash sean mate , count me in mate , i got a few young lads who will have a game

[Big G]

Remember lads its about the crack and money for charity so lets keep it to that.

looking forward to a good game and for the record we will be massive underdogs. Sean you have the pick of the cream players from all the Sunday leagues and any player from our leagues below prem.

The best thing we can hope for is a fair ref, just think how much Bob Hope done for charity?

[Back of the Net]

nice one Paul, sling me 2 names (can only have 2 from any 1 club) on a PM via here and I'll stick them on the list - if you know of anyone else outside of the Oundle set-up that I should go after then let me know also mate...

[Big G]

Paul, your one of my best mates in football, what you doing?

[Back of the Net]

Gino is right lads... this is about having a right good laugh, a good game and a few beers after....
Keep those names coming boys...

[Big G]

Come on Seam lets post them as we get them, max 16 players (5 subs)

[Back of the Net]

G I cant post all names as I get them because if we get more than 16 (I Hope we do get more) then when we select the squad and some dont make it, that aint really fair is it? I wouldn;t want to have my 'NON-SELECTION' broadcast on here..
I will post regular updates on clubs who are interested though...

So far we have Manea x 2 lads, Oundle Res 2 lads, Mr Harley, Bauer 2 lads....
Come on boys keep em coming... Harbs do me a favour, ask Jamie what he's doing on the 16th May lol..

[Harbs]

i will, if he's free im gonna give him £50 to go down the pub!!! :)

[Big G]

Just let Jamie use my house in spain for that weekend, hope the weather is good for him

[.a.trick.or.2.or.3.or.4.]

i wana play for sean ha.
only messin gino lets do this.
what charity is this going to.

[Big G]

Not sure yet but think we should keep it local?

[Back of the Net]

love it...

Seriously though, if any Saturday manager or senior player with recent expereince of Saturday leagues/players fancies helping me out select the squad and round up the lads (general advice on who's who and who's decent etc)then please PM me..
This is for Sunday players too lads, anyone keen?

[Back of the Net]

Gino can you handle the money side of this? I'll collect the £5 each from our side and hand it all to you if ok? your call on who benefits if ok by you

[Big G]

Yes mate and I think the winning team should choose, I`ll get the ET down for some photos?

[Back of the Net]

Good man.....

spread the word lads, anyone wanting to get involved is welcome to register interest with me or others on here that can pass the message to me and we'll get the PST Select XI sorted.
Who doesn't want a crack at the Eye lads with a decent crowd watching and cold beers waiting afterwards?

[sneeksxxx8]

So BOTN, you have the wholleee of the Peterborough scene to chose from(bar the prem and players that dont play Sundays).

Do you fancy your chances;)

Ill place a beer on it?

Obviously my Beer would go to charity(Big G)

[Big G]

Can the ref bet, if its a draw and we have a corner in the 90th min would you bang one in?

[sneeksxxx8]

The Ref can and will do what he wants. Got it manager?

[Back of the Net]

no bets on this one from me.... it's for charity, but also to raise funds for Eye via the beers etc and for a good laugh.

[Mahoney]

Yea count me in for that please, this should be a good crack.

[BEZZA1980]

G I cant post all names as I get them because if we get more than 16 (I Hope we do get more) then when we select the squad and some dont make it, that aint really fair is it? I wouldn;t want to have my 'NON-SELECTION' broadcast on here..
I will post regular updates on clubs who are interested though...

So far we have Manea x 2 lads, Oundle Res 2 lads, Mr Harley, Bauer 2 lads....
Come on boys keep em coming... Harbs do me a favour, ask Jamie what he's doing on the 16th May lol..

Sean - Are they all registered on Sportstalk as i thought it was meant to be a Sportstalk eleven?

[Big G]

Well said beza1980 and yes I have my eye on that

[CoatesFC - Dave]

If you want to approach any Coates lads BOTN, i believe the following are members of the site:

Lee Colbert - Centre Half
Craig Crofts - Centre Mid
Kev Gilbert - Right Mid
Liam Higgins - GK
Luke Mason - Centre Half

I have probably missed one or two but that should give you a few possibilities!!

I am not sure on what all of their usernames are but let me know if you want to contact them!!

Dave

[Admin]

i'll play, plus one other from Sspio Sean.

[jb]

May 2nd Season Finish - Coca-Cola League 1 & League 2 3rd Season Finish - Coca-Cola Championship 8th-17th Coca-Cola Football League Play-Off Semi-Finals 23rd Coca-Cola League 2 Play-Off Final (Wembley Stadium) 23rd Community Cup Final (Wembley Stadium) 24th Coca-Cola League 1 Play-Off Final (Wembley Stadium) 24th Community Cup Final (Wembley Stadium) 25th Coca-Cola Championship Play-Off Final (Wembley Stadium) 25th Community Cup Final (Wembley Stadium)

might be advisory to miss these dates out as i think clashing with a possible promotion clinching game or the playoffs with posh would see a lot of last minute drop outs. maybe a sunday would be a better day to do it on?

you'd also get more people down watching and spending money in the bar!

[MagicMan]

I would be interested in a game, BOTN, don't think I really know any of the other lads but I'll give it a shot.

[Big G]

Sunday no good for me and its family day.

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Sean i have a centre half who is registered on here, he plays for my Sun team and was at roxham this season and last but due to work cant play for them anymore!!!
He is my boss hence why i got him at my sun side, but he is a hell of a centre half and would be well up for a game to m8!!

also Whitt res lads on here that are good players

assasin - Luke Quince Striker
Nails- Adam Moore Midfield
No9 - Micky Burch Striker or put him in defense as no one would ever run round that lol
Tin Tin- Matty Heron Midfeilder who also plays sun way me

prob missed a few but more sports talk players for ya!!!

Dave

Ideal mate cheers...
Dave would you sound those boys out for me and see who's really up for it? If we can get 2 that are 100% interested then I'll defo put em down to play, the 2 best if possible lol...
seriously though, the 2 lads best up for the crack would be better, all about having a laugh this one.
Please let me know though and drop me a PM or message on here.

[Back of the Net]

Yea count me in for that please, this should be a good crack.

you'll have to PM me your name and club you play for mate? sorry I dont know it from your profile..
I'll put you down on the list... yes we have a list.
the plan is we'll pick the best 14 - 16 lads and that's not just the best players, it's a combi of that and those who are up for a laugh and gonna bring personalty, beer drinking and general banter to the party!

It's now I'll announce my number 2 in all of this... welcome aboard Bratts.... him and I will be sorting the PST select XI from here on in.

Gino.. how does it work with being registered on here.. I have 2 Manea lads (mates) and I think only 1 is currently registered on here, the other will do if it allows him to play, but I dont wanna cut out decent lads who are mates cause they aint on here - do we allow them, or negotiate them etc? gimme a shout yeah.

[Back of the Net]

Shaun, sounds good mate
drop me a PM with you and your bosses name and number (I think I have yours but confirm it).
We have our eye on a couple of Whittlesey Res lads for sure, but if any are reading this and fancy it then drop us a message yeah? it'll be a great game.

magicman, drop me your name, position played and contact details?

[Big G]

Sorry they must be members of Peterborough sports talk but if we both agree I will allow you 1 wild card that is not a member or does not meet the rules outside the Saturday prem?

If you and bratts agree we will both have a wild card choice?

[BEZZA1980]

Sorry they must be members of Peterborough sports talk but if we both agree I will allow you 1 wild card that is not a member or does not meet the rules outside the Saturday prem?

If you and bratts agree we will both have a wild card choice?

Obviously have someone up your sleeve G.

[Big G]

In answer to them question just to remind people of the new updated rules, remember lads its all for fun...

1) Played anytime upto this season even if this is their first year.

2) As long as they have played at least half league games (outside prem) on sundays. Jamie has played over half sundays so players like him are fine.

3) 2 players is fair per team but willing to negotiate if players are needed nearer the time, I think thats fair?.

4) Both teams will have 1 wild card pick outside Saturday Prem

5) All players must be members of Peterboroughsportstalk at least 48 hours before kick off (unless agreed)

All our players will be registered for Eye sports, same rules as above apply to us.

[Big G]

Its all about the crack Bezza1980

[BEZZA1980]

Yeah i know, looking forward to it. Still think Sean should put his team up as they come in. He knows which players will definately be playing.

Be good to know, he could like announce 2 players and their position a week. That will nearly take you upto kick off date.

[Big G]

I have ask mate but he wont do it

[Bratts]

Thanks sean, more than happy to be invovled, especially as its for charity. Gino if sean is happy for you to have a wildcard then i am too......

[Big G]

Just thinking about a mate of mine that would like a run out?

[Bratts]

Who's that G, YOU?? lol, tell you what you play last 15 mins of that game in a bright pink too too n i will donate £20 to the charity

[Big G]

Please mate

[Bratts]

Ha Ha i take it thats a NO then ha ha

[Back of the Net]

1 wildcard is fine and makes it interesting for everyone watching and wondering who we'll come up with lol.

I honestly don't mind announcing on here who's expressed interest but I just dont think it's right to do it before we've had a chance to look and see who's up for it, we may end up with 20+ lads and have to cut a few, doing that on here aint really on to be fair...
We could perhaps announce the sqaud (minus wildcard) on a set date and Gino does the same?
If we get any 100% confirmed lads that we know 100% will be playing then if they're happy we will put up their names before then - fair enough?

So far we have 2 Manea, 2 SSPIO/Bauer, 2 Hampton and 2 Kings Cliffe lads showing firm interest, plus Mr Harley and a couple of others who I'm yet to get names/clubs from....
Anyone from Whittley Ress on here able to put the word out to them it'd be appreciated, those boys always seem up for the crack and they have some decent players too - ideal for this!

[Harbs]

wow this is the first time an idea has been suggested and followed thru with.
see where would we be with out all the **** we talk on here! :)

[jb]

Second time, rangers v Celtic was first.

[Harbs]

oh apologies, this is only the second time!
though i cant believe i didnt get asked to play on the Rangers team!

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Harbs are you are Rangers fan then?????

Also there was enough publicity on here asking players to contact myself regarding the game!!!!
But dont worry my friend as we have a game again this year so pm if your a true blue and wanna play!!:nwy:

[Harbs]

no i dont support ramgers mate, my mother dearest does born and bread.
explains why i am so god damn pale!

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

that explains why ye were not asked then lol!!!

i would love to have you play buddy but this year is true fans only as last year there were a few ringers playing so we agreed on true fans only soz m8!!
but if i do get short ill be sure to keep ya in mind.
oh and yer mums got a good heed on them shoulders!

[new blue boys]

alright botn,is it you who is looking at running the side for this game.if so id be up for the game especially as its for charity.

[Back of the Net]

It is mate.. I got your PM and have added you to the list... can you drop me a contact number and your preffered position please? CB isn;t it?

[Back of the Net]

So which lads from Coates are up for this then?

[Bainesy]

Not liking this no one outside the prem rule!!!!!

[jb]

you can still play bainsey as you've played a fair few times for stilton and sunday mornings. i dont recall you playing in the prem at all this season.

[Big G]

Just for the record lads, UCL or above players CAN play as long as they are members on here and have played at least half the games on Sundays.

[Back of the Net]

Bainsey you in then mate? would be good to get another Stilton lad on board also?

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

I should say that Bainsey will be in now he read all that, anyway sean if not you are allowed 1 wild card i do believe there it is then lol!!!

[Big G]

Let me think ?

1) Is Bainsey a member of Peterboroughsportstalk ? - Yes
2) Does he play outside Saturday Prem ? - Yes
3) HAS HE PLAYED AT LEAST HALF SUNDAY LEAGUE GAMES ???????????????

I have my eyes on you boys Sean

[Back of the Net]

Mate I haven't played half Sunday league games, but my name is going on that sheet as number 16 I can assure you and NOT as our Wildcard either lol... I gotta have 5 minutes against Harbs n Nipper etc for comedy value alone!

We'll have a team together and it will conform to the rules as best I can possibly manage, you have my word on that G.

[Bainesy]

No only played one sunday game this season mate!!!!!! im sure couple stilton lads would play

[Big G]

If your signed for a Sat team outside Prem your fime Sean.

[BEZZA1980]

Bainsey has played and signed on for stilton this season, and on sportstalk. So officially he can play and not as a wildcard. Spoke to Gazza Sean and he seemed interested as well. There are your two stilton lads if Mark will play, if not get his brother Richie to play. he is on here.

[Back of the Net]

There you go Mark - you and Gazza fancy it?

[jb]

i've got an awesome wildcard, is it allowed to be ANYONE gino?

[Big G]

Jb ???????????????????????????????

[Bainesy]

yeah count me in a guess gaz will as well

[Back of the Net]

Nice one mate... can ya drop me a PM on here with a number for you and Gaz?
Me n Bratts gonna get the team sorted soon and then need to call or text everyone to confirm they defo up for it and tell them all where n when to meet up etc...

[Back of the Net]

As long as they are all on PST 48 hrs before K/O it's fine.....
Bainseys in goal isn't he?

[moe]

I will be there to watch this game just sort the date so I can make sure I not going golf

[Assasin]

[Back of the Net]

Nice one mate... I have you down to play now, thanks for the PM..
If you can bring another Whittlesey lad like I mentioned in my return message that would be good...

cheers

[Big G]

Sean you cant have 35 players.....................

[BEZZA1980]

[Admin]

Don't worry, I think we only have 33!

[Back of the Net]

We'll have 16 maximum.. me n Bratts meeting up next week to sort the squad and then calling the lads involved to confirm they defo will play.

What date have we got by the way Gino?

[Big G]

We've had a couple of decent Wildcard discussions and people showing interest so this should be a good one...
The main thing though, is we're all down to Eye for a cracking game and a good laugh, beers etc afterwards so get yourself dropped off for the day hahaha...

[BEZZA1980]

Not many strikers there Sean

[Bratts]

Best dust off me boots then if we in need of a striker :ner:

[Back of the Net]

Got 3 in there mate and perhaps a wildcard that could do a job up top!!!
Oh and same as Bratts - I'll bring my boots too hahaha

Still room for others to show an interest and let me or Bratts know, gonna be a good day out and looking like a decent game in store!

[CAFC EGG]

definately getting a lift down or my car can stay in the car park and i'll sleep in the changing rooms! :alc:

any danger of a date yet though?! i need to make space in my hectic diary! :lol:

[Bratts]

Should be a great day all round..i hoping the strikers we got will do the job cos me n sean are getting a little to past our sell by date nowadays ( which is lucky for the eye back four!! ) lol

[moe]

bratts, a little past your sell by date, damn you two must have gone mouldy...lol, and yes before you say it me too...

[Back of the Net]

Morning lads....

Gino, are we any nearer to setting a date for this mate? I've got a few lads asking me if it's going ahead and when etc!
What about the Bank Holiday weekend end of May - Sat or Sun?

[Back of the Net]

Right lads... We have a choice of these 2 dates on the table

13th June or 20th June.

Anyone who's already expressed interest in playing, please let us all know if you can make these dates, Gino, Bratts and I will then get it booked and finalise everything!

[jb]

i'll be good for either date mate

[HSFC]

Just spoke with ibbo he be available on 20th not 13th chaps.

[Ross]

Perhaps one of the new mods will add a poll to the thread ;)

[TheCat]

Maybe the cat in the stick??

[simplyme]

Perhaps one of the new mods will add a poll to the thread ;)

Or an old one could ;)

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

to be honest i can do either date so just went with 13th lol

[new blue boys]

likewise i can do either if i make the cut.

[CAFC EGG]

i think i should be ok for both dates but don't think crofty is available for the 13th so im voting for the 20th as he's my drinking buddy! :alc: harbs cant keep up with him! :lol:

[simplyme]

Harbs can't keep up with anyone!

[Admin]

I'm up for either date.

[Assasin]

either

[Admin]

Has no decision been made on date? I can see this idea falling on it's Rs!

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Yeah come on Hammil, Bratts and Big G when we gonna get this all going!!!

[Big G]

Date is 20th June at Eye Sports

[Back of the Net]

Nice one G... right the date is set 20th June at Eye.

Bratts and I are now going over the team we have from people who showed an interest, we'll be calling people to confirm and then posting a message on here to say what's what with the team etc...
Anyone else not yet registered an interest who wants to play - please do so on here asap!

Rapha, email me details of who's still in from SSPIO please? can you confirm with them the 20th for us also?

[Admin]

No worries. Have emailed you Mr Sean

[Back of the Net]

Gino, can you confirm K/O time and everything 100% confirmed for the 20th please?

Here's the PST squad so far:
Liam Higgins - Coates
Jim Waters - Manea
Mark Heading - Manea
JB - Kings Cliffe
Macca - Kings Cliffe
Raph - Bauer
Hamad Javed - Netherton
Shaun Harley - Real Whittlesey
Anton Sgroi - SSPIO
Mick Gale - Gedney Hill
Lee Colbert - Coates
Craig Crofts - (Crofty) Coates

We're waiting on a couple of others to confirm also!

[Bratts]

sean , liam higgins is coates mate, sorry i may have told you wrong

[Number 9]

put Lam where he will be next year........................... Manea thats ok LMAO...........Fott in mouth maybe?????????????????

[Bratts]

lol na it was an honest error on my part, but sean you have forgotten to put our 2 star strikers down!!

ST - Jimmy Brattan Kings Cliffe
ST - Sean Hamill here there n everywhere lol

[Big G]

20th at Eye Sports is fine, 2pm kick off

Looking forward to it lads

[Bratts]

and were are we heading for after game drinks G :pty:

[Back of the Net]

My error I think actually, spreadsheets doing my nut in at work lol...

It went without saying that our 2 start strikers are Jimmy and myself surely? I'll represent SSPIO to avoid the shame on Bauer hahaha...

All the lads confirmed to date are well up for this one, you'd better get the beers well stocked Gino and maybe a venue for the lads to go on too afterwards - pub with grub somewhere?

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

sean who are the confirmations you are waiting on m8???

is Bainsey in or out???

[LIAM HIGGINS]

Number 9, i can confirm that i will be at manea next season!!!!!!!!!

[Back of the Net]

Shaun, I'm waiting on 2 to confirm that play Hampton on Sundays - Lee if you're reading this drop me a line with their numbers please mate?

Jimmy has another 2 to confirm on his 'hit-list' - possible 3 if we play the 'wildcard'.

This not confirmed wont be named until they do, nothing shadey or anything, I just dont think it right as they may not play and then others who come in think they were 2nd choice etc... just playing it fair n square mate.

C'mon Gino, how about posting your squad up here mate?

[LIAM HIGGINS]

You trying to get me in trouble with coates?!!!!

Only joking, no harm in a bit fun.

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

lets be honest if anyone believed what they read on here they would be silly lol

this site is all about the banter 90% of the time

good to see 3 coates lads involved.

even better good to see 3 scots in me macca and crofty!!!

[Bratts]

Shaun, you n macca are there purely for comedy value :ner:, only joking it should be a cracking day & night

[Admin]

How about back to SportsLounge in town afterwards? Great setup there and full of screens and good beer, plus central for all.

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Only if sports lounge get the 1st beer in lol:joke:

[simplyme]

I am looking forward to watching this! Jimmy, if you do need any backups, give me a shout

[Big G]

Just found out Eye Sports pitch can not be used on that day. Does anyone have any ideas where we can play this game, should be good for their bar??????

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Try PSL gino failing that both Werrington and Bushfields have pitches available.

[Admin]

Go for Werrington; new changing facilities and The Ploughman would probably put food on too?

[Back of the Net]

Bushfield the way forward here I reckon - The Windmill and Cross Keys afterwards is ideal?
Rapha just wants Werrington so he can walk there lol.

[Big G]

Bushfield and windmill sounds good to me?

[Admin]

Okay, you got me! Bushfield and Windmill then.

[Back of the Net]

Can you book it up Gino?

Our squad have all confirmed (barr 2 from Stilton who will do so tomorrow!) and we'll make sure our 1/2 is paid up to you before kick off.

The Windmill is under new management now Luke has left, Gino do you know the new guy, would he lay anything on for us you reckon? just a thought.

[Big G]

If you sort the booking as you know them I`ll sort the windmill, cheers

[Back of the Net]

They'll be wanting cash up front Gino and I'm not really too keen of fronting the £50, as I've had a lot of X's already this month that has sent the C/Card into overdrive!

[Big G]

I know, just putting the squad up buddy

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

ahhh cool very strong side that is m8!!

[maccaceltic]

very strong but the select has me & you so they have no chance of winning

[Big G]

Hope its close lads, dont want my boys kicking arse for 90 minutes, hope you can make a game of it???

[maccaceltic]

is it extra time & penalties or goalden goal if level...????

[Big G]

No need to worry about that Macca

[maccaceltic]

so you have had the same dream as me were its 1-1 in the 89th min & i pick the ball up from our 6 yard box run through your whole team get 1 on 1 with the keeper & flick it over his head run round him & overhead kick it into the back of the empty net to win the match

[Big G]

nearly, you do pick the ball up in the 89th minute but slip over your own feet, lose the ball and Harbs scores to make it 4 - 1

[maccaceltic]

hey thats not fair, have you sent out scouts to watch me play? thats to much like the real thing..!!

[Back of the Net]

Squad so far:

Liam Higgins - Coates
Jim Waters - Manea
Mark Heading - Manea
JB - Kings Cliffe
Macca - Kings Cliffe
Raph - Bauer
Hamad Javed - Netherton
Shaun Harley - Real Whittlesey
Anton Sgroi - SSPIO
Mick Gale - Gedney Hill
Lee Colbert - Coates
Craig Crofts - (Crofty) Coates
Gazza - Stilton
+ 2 or 3 others TBC....
Not forgetting jimmy n myself making a late cameo lol....

[Big G]

Sorry Macca didnt know Colbert was playing 5-1, lol

[maccaceltic]

& shaun harley Rangers scum 6-1

[Big G]

Good point, this may be a cricket score

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Ill have a pint with ya Gino that you dont win by more than 5 goals lol makes it interesting!!

[Big G]

Deal I`ll take hat bet (fosters please)

[Bratts]

Gino i didnt think your Number 9 would be playing??? I personally dont care what the score line is, i there for the crack with the lads that are taking part and the beer after.

Just got confirmed that Messi, kaka n ronaldo are available sean

[Back of the Net]

Yeah I've had em ringing me all last night, let em know we're sorted already will you and to stop calling me lol...

With Bratts all the way, it's all about having a good laugh before, during and after the game for this one, We do have a decent squad though and I'll be amazed if we get beat by more than 4 or 5 - depends on who else Gino drafts in though, Should be the main Eye team though really????

Jimmy and I could have gone after all sorts of players who on paper would take Eye to the cleaners, but as you can see from the squad, it's all about getting players in from mainly Div 1 Saturday and other lads who are up for the banter...

Dont be driving down to this one, get a lift, taxi - whatever... Beers, Cards, Pool etc after are a given!

[Big G]

Bite bite bite, thiers not a team of players on PST that would take us to the cleaners (and just one more time BITE)

[Bratts]

Sean 2 more lads for the squad, Joe ellis n Ian bradbury just confirmed they are okay to play.

Gino, you na me i dont bite mate, just nibble, i will get round to seeing you soon with your delivery

[Back of the Net]

If we could have any players at all, we could assemble a squad capable of taking Eye to the cleaners I'm sure, but where's the fun in that - we'd rather do it with the lads we have lol....

[Back of the Net]

So the final squad for us looks something like this:

Liam Higgins - Coates
JB - Kings Cliffe
Hamad Javed - Netherton
Anton Sgroi - SSPIO
Mick Gale - Gedney Hill
Lee Colbert - Coates
Craig Crofts (Crofty) - Coates
Macca - Kings Cliffe
Jim Waters - Manea
Raph - Bauer
Shaun Harley - Real Whittlesey
Mark Heading - Manea
Gazza - Stilton
Joe Ellis - Kings Cliffe
Ian Braders – not sure which club!

Just need the venue and it's all go for next Saturday!!!

[Big G]

Sean you could and can pick who you want and would still have no chance, good luck you will need it

[Admin]

Is that me and Yido up top then? ;)

[Back of the Net]

there you go boys, Gino has laid down the gauntlet...

If we cant beat em on the field, we move on to Beers/Cards and Pool - no contest there, as Crofty assures us that one is in the bag lol!

[Big G]

Sean you have no chance on the pitch and even less in the bar, easy win on and off the field

[yido manea]

Lol ur on the left Raph.... lol

I'm going right back!!!

[Admin]

JB will be right back, else he will cry

[maccaceltic]

Right back in the changing rooms,we could be there for ever with some of those drinkers of beer, im only a pro at drinking whisky & coke so im in for that challange!!!

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

ill challange harbs at drinking!!!

[maccaceltic]

With 2 Glaswiegans in our team we have the drinking won hands down its our1 nation sport

[Big G]

Spencer took his mates/mothers/friends dog for a walk in scotland, so that makes him part scotish

[sneeksxxx8]

bring it on i gaurentee to score at least 1 mayb 2 dunno if im feelin frisky 3 :)

nicos friend

[Ebbo]

i cant play gino. only play in big games.:)

[Big G]

Good point mate I understand

[Big G]

Pitch "WILL" be at Bushfields next saturday 20th, 2pm kick off but can we ask all players to meet at 1pm for photos as it is for charity..


BUSHFIELD SATURDAY 20th. MEETING AT 1pm FOR 2PM KICK OFF

[CAFC EGG]

Sorry Macca didnt know Colbert was playing 5-1, lol

oooooooooo you bitch! *bkk*ha ha

[Back of the Net]

Next Saturday 1pm meet at Bushfield it is then................

Sneeks, Aren't you reffing the game?

Predictions of score then lads? I'm going for 7-5 to us!
Drinking after, last 2 or 3 from either side standing? PST all the way.... Although Spenny will be there whatever happens lol

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

im saying 5-4 PST last min goal from Hammil :clap:

[sneeksxxx8]

I dont mind playing or reffing. If you cant get a ref i dont mind.

Im going for 4-1 Eye.

[Assasin]

8-0 eye

[moe]

Personally I think it will be a good game, good luck to both sides, I shall wonder down to watch.

[maccaceltic]

If it dosent take away from the actual charity game would anyone mind if we wore black armbands in tribute to a great friend & strike partner Karl Mazurak who unfortunatly passed away suddenly yeserday.
I know that some of the players might not have known Karl but as he is a local footballer i thought it would be a good idea & I have also asked if we can retire the number 9 shirt from the Coopers football team which has been accepted.

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

My thoughts are with Karls family and friends. Having played against him many a time and with him in my early years in peterborough he will be missed hugely.
A real gentleman and character on and off the pitch.

[Back of the Net]

Happy to honour Karl in any way you see fit Macca - bring bands for the lads? or tape etc....

Everyone below all confirmed to attend Bushfields this Saturday at 1pm yeah?

Liam Higgins - Coates
JB - Kings Cliffe
Hamad Javed - Netherton
Anton Sgroi - SSPIO
Mick Gale - Gedney Hill
Lee Colbert - Coates
Craig Crofts (Crofty) - Coates

Raph - Bauer
Shaun Harley - Real Whittlesey
Mark Heading - Manea
Gazza - Stilton
Joe Ellis - Kings Cliffe
Ian Braders – not sure which club!

[Back of the Net]

Gino... Anything arranged/booked for after the game mate? Got the lads all dead keen and asking what's on, if anything?

I pressumed it's back to the Windmill to start and then take it from there? All the Eye lot up for that?

[Big G]

Yes mate Windmill after where some food will be put on mate, maybe have a drink or 2

[maccaceltic]

Thanks Gino much appreciated

[Back of the Net]

Dont forget boys it's £5 subs for EVERYONE playing, excess cash after paying for the pitch etc, goes toward food and anything over too Eye Sports!

Cheers Gino..

[Big G]

Should be a great laugh. I told the lads not to go all out as its for charity, we will keep it close, maybe do 2 touch and maybe no over head height, just a thought?????

[Back of the Net]

Not that ole chestnut Gino?

We're talking about no over head height, only after 13 passes can we shoot and only if it's been dragged back from the byline for an odd-number shirt to back-heel in - should keep our score down to single figures lol..

[Back of the Net]

Gino - any shout on after game activities mate? got the Manea and Coates boys in particular asking?

I presume it's back to the Windmill after the game, for food (you've sorted yeah?) and take it from there?
No pool or darts etc at Windmill though boys - maybe the Cross Keys is the way to go - Gino?

Oh and G, would you PM me please mate, need to discuss payment/subs etc on the day... Ta

[Harbs]

god you lot have been busy wit the old banter!
hows it going fellas .... its nearly time to let the games begin.
Sean you might out last me in this game im feeling about as mobile as you were in the last game we played
remember when that sniper shot you 3 minutes into the game! even mr Flynn was laughing
im not taking any one on at shots after the game! unless the game is who can pass out first i know i got that in the bag!!!

[Back of the Net]

get the excuses in now Harbs lol...
I do recall that game well, I was on crutches with ligament damage the week before and should not have played, but we turned up with 7 men, so I hobbled on - 1st pass was waist height and I stick my foot out, sheer agony and I went down like a sack of spuds hahaha..
Talking about funny things in that game, didn't you take a ball to the side of the head then wander about lost for 5 seconds - even all yout team mates were wetting themselves!!

Good to have you back mate.

[new blue boys]

have to have a check on the kit bag see whats useable lol,plenty of banter being thrown around.dont think it will be a thrashing either way lol.is the pitch being watered just before as i can see a few grass burns coming if not.hopefully there will be a few down to support the day.

[Back of the Net]

Got a couple of adiditions to the PST squad - we lose Gazza unfortunately but he'll be there to support our post-game efforts though!!! Also Anton is out as he has family committments!

New Squad as follows:

Liam Higgins - Coates
JB - Kings Cliffe
Hamad Javed - Netherton
Mick Gale - Gedney Hill
Lee Colbert - Coates
Craig Crofts (Crofty) - Coates
Macca - Kings Cliffe

Raph - Bauer and SSPIO
Shaun Harley - Real Whittlesey
Mark Heading - Manea

I'm gutted I wont get on the pitch, did my ankle (again) last night at Powerleague, that's me done for good I think - gutted.

[Admin]

Really looking forward to this match . . . the missus is off to the Showground for the day, so a nice PST win followed by a few beers is the order of the day :)

[Bratts]

Well D day is here, should make for a cracking game of footy n a few laughs!! Just wana say in advance a big thank you to Gino n the boys at eye for agreeing to this game and hopefully we will raise some money for a good cause. Hope to see planty of people down there giving there support and donating as much or little of there cash as possible for the charity. which i believe gino has chosen cancer research.

[Big G]

Yes we have Jimmy. Many thanks to you and Sean, should be a good laugh on and off the field. May the best team (Eye Sports) win

[Big G]

Question? Has this thread had the most hits ever?

[Back of the Net]

group hug? lol...

seriously though, thanks G for sorting the difficult stuff with pitch and food back at the Windmill...
Should be a cracking game and more importantly a good laugh whatever the result on the pitch!

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

Just to let everyone no the score was .................................................. ..

2-1 to the PST select side!!!!

Great game played in great spirit. Although you could see it hurt Gino to see his side lose 2-1 to us boys!!
You never did buy me that drink Gino!!!!:non:

Seriously tho it was for a great cause and hopefully each yearthe game wi llbecome bigger and earn more money for Charity.

[Back of the Net]

well done the PST lads who travelled from all over and played in a team new to them all, some decent football from both side for a very worthy cause!!

Man of the Match for me was Crofty, energy levels were awesome and pretty much ran it for the PST side in the middle, Goal of the game - gotta be wee Karlos (SSPIO/Bauer)! and a pen save from Liam...

Eye were missing a couple of good players, but then again so were we - aint that right Jimmy!!!

[Back of the Net]

Massive shout to Mick Belson who made it down to watch also, great to see you mate!

[jb]

Massive shout to Mick Belson who made it down to watch also, great to see you mate!

:stpd:

[Ebbo]

great day out boys.. ill take blame 4 eye losing 4 missing pen but first 20mins we was awesome. gona win div 1 and take 6points off kings cliff.. HAPPY DAYS.

[Big G]

Great day lads played in great spirit. On the day only one team could win and the best team did, great flowing footballwith both teams trying to pass the ball around. Hats off to Jimmy & Sean,really enjoyed the banter and hope its the start of a yearly challange?

Money raised of £200 will go to Cancer Research...

All our best wishes go to Mick Belson and his family, it was great to see him yesterday.

[jb]

great day out boys.. ill take blame 4 eye losing 4 missing pen but first 20mins we was awesome. gona win div 1 and take 6points off kings cliff.. HAPPY DAYS.


:nono:

[maccaceltic]

ooooohhhhhh, the league banter has started lol. carefull Ebbo dont pedict it to early

[Harbs]

was good to see everyone out side of the season
well done pst you definately earnt the win
sean your comments about crofty are sooo wrong! i thought mom was our right back for giving you boys the ball every time he had it ha ha
good to see mr belson yesterday and the family
Big shout to the last man standing Ian flew the flag for the light weights and the two coates boys even if they did leave early to change their tops :P

[Admin]

Maybe it could be a yearly challenge of PST versus the PFA Challenge Cup Winners . . . a bit like a community/charity shield?

We'll get some good sponsorship for next year and bump up the money raised.

Well done to both sides and the managers too.

[Bratts]

Enjoyed the game, enjoyed the banter. Great day for everyone. Big thanks to Bushfields who allowed us the use of the facilities for free and to dave stapleton for reffing the game free, Gino n all the boys associated with Eye sports :clap::clap::clap:, n all the lads that came n played for the PST side :clap::clap::clap:.

[LIAM HIGGINS]

It was a good game played in great spirit, gino your boys passing game was great its a shame it didnt turn into anything when they got to the edge of our box. I think the turning point was the pen save HA HA HA HA!!!!.

Jimmy i like the new name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Big G]

Its was all about the crack for us, you boys got the (offside) goals to win and fair play. Enoyed it, before, during and after which is what its all about, Ryan Francis never could hit a barn door, never seen a goal hes scored hit the net he always walks it over the line. People should have taken note from Little Ollie, 40 yards, top corner which 8 keepers would never have stopped...

[Admin]

Karl not Ollie! Ollie played for you and had a tremendous first touch on Saturday . . . think he'd been watching me!

[Harbs]

think u missed the irony there raffa ;)

[Admin]

It's Monday ;)

[Ross]

It's Monday ;)
Poor excuse Rapha!!! :blh:

[Admin]

. . . and I'm thick? Is that better? :)

[Ross]

. . . and I'm thick? Is that better? :)

Much better :mrgreen: :p :lol:

[ryanf9]

gino!??!?!? cant hit a barn door???
if im wid u nxt season ill hit the net 50 times in all comps at least,
centre mid or upfront!!!!!!! ;)

[Big G]

ha ha we will see Brian

[Back of the Net]

50 goals, you sure?.... You couldnt find the net against a team that had never played together before last Saturday lol..

Gino take the bet mate!

[Big G]

Cant mate the best team won, the football you played was fantastic and the tactics spot on, you guys should team up for a run at the league.

[Admin]

Sorry Gino, we'd have to start in Div 2 so couldn't possibly attract that sort of talent. Harley would never drop from the Prem ;)

[Glasgow Rangers Champions]

gino cant take the bet as he doesnt pay up lol:batr:

[Back of the Net]

we cant take the credit, the lads we put out there did the business without me n Jimmy having to say much to em at all...
I reckon the defence we had, wiith crofty in front of them would keep out all but the very best teams!

[maccaceltic]

yeah we were solid when i went to Center back......

[sneeksxxx8]

Dunno about you guys. I won 1-0 overall. Came on at half time and helped us with the 2nd half win.
Some called me the missing peice;)

[Back of the Net]

you miss-heard Sneeks - it was 'the missing link' ...!

[ryanf9]

all have bad days!!!!!! but was charity game, league diff story,
see end of season!!!!! im thinkin 50

[Ebbo]

u play for eye sports next season. every goal u score each match ill buy u a drink only at home though as its cheap gino will get the away ones..:beer:
