Sunderland Calling

Highly unlikely we will have a team at this rate - we had the bare 11 last year and 3 of them are already ruled out

[franksav63]

chunky has to go to hospital for an op soon so dont know if he will want to do it again this year, maybe make franksav manager as it cant be worse then last year when poor old frank hobbled off with a hamstring after 5 min leaving the gooner 11 playing with 10 men

It wasn't a hammy, it was my thigh

Phew.... that would be a relief!! Not sure our (and by that I mean you guys that ...er....'played in the games...) reputation could stand yet another humiliation!!

Tell you what, arrange the meet-up anyway and all go to the pub instead!!

Only if he can wear his brown velure tracksuit

[WoolyFTM]

Ha'way lads, you must be able to scrape 11 together. If not, we could reluctantly scale down to 7 a side?

Happy to go along with your plans and will keep following this thread.

No... I'm not manager material I'm afraid... that's for arseholes... Surprised you haven't applied for it Flash...

[Number 5]

Should be able to make a return to the team this season.

We don't need a manager just 11 bodies and someone who knows and can book a local pitch.

Fuck Leyton Orient again. Got any numbers Chunky?

I havent matey. Good to see you on here again too. When I went to book market road which would have been ideal they told me if I was a resident of Islington which Im not then I could book it 2 months in advance and of course when I was finally able to try and book it it was always booked. Leyton Orient is far from ideal I agree but it was the only place I could get for the time / date we needed. Ideally somewhere close to the ground but apart from where we first played and market road I dont know of any other local pitches for hire

I just rang about one of the Islington pitches. Apparently you can book 28 days in advance, whether you're an Islington resident or not.

There's 2 pitches at Market Road and 1 at Whittington Park.

Look at this, it takes an out of towner to get things going round here.

Surely we can muster up an Islington resident between us. You know, a resident of the borough that our club play in.

Fuck sake, we're a shambles at best aren't we?

I've got access to a 7-a side pitch and could probably book it now, but it's up the arse end of north london where the A406 meets the M1. On the plus side it is close to the Thameslink that goes straight into St Pancras/Kentish Town in about 20 minutes.

Thoughts? Impressions?

[augie]

Hadnt we got a poster on here some time ago stating that unless you were born and raised in islington then you are not a proper Gooner ? Surely he would know somebody to book the pitch for us ?

On a serious level can we get lads who are committed to playing in this game to say so now ? Obviously a man would need to book an earlier match if he is going to play his part in another Gooner FC drubbing
