"DO NOT get so drunk that you can't remember the 90 minutes of football you just played in" lol... That's shameful, but hilarious.

I've played a couple games drunk. Not a good idea.

One occasion I was so pissed the coach subbed me at half time, gave out shite to me and then laughed his ass off as I puked all over the showers. And it had loads of bits of undigested bean sprout in it from the chinese I had somehow slapped into me at 5am that morning!

I was reading this thread on my phone this morning and forgot about it.
It reminds me of two storeys:

First being when Arsenal travelled to Liverpool and Ray Parlour wasn't included in Grahamâ€™s squad. So he went to the bar pre-match and already had downed a pint when he was called back due to a last minute injury. Not only was he included in the squad he also started the match!!!

The other was TA...
Totally plastered on the Friday before a match in a night club. I also think it's the same night in which he fell down the stairs and famously cut his forehead.
He played with a plaster, and still plastered, and just 'tried' to get through the game.
I'm pretty sure he also doesn't remember much of the game from still being to drunk.
Not only did he manage to score but he was also MOTM!!!

(Please correct me if I'm wrong)

As a man who has witnessed this first hand, I feel obligated to correct you there Mr 10.

You most certainly did not play in its truest sense but merely stumbled around the pitch in zig zaggy patterns.

Come to think of it was Augie pissed that day too?

The game he played in with his plaster on his head and scored was away at Ipswich in the FA Cup in 1993 I think.

I always look back with regret at the period when George had Merse and Adams playing through their drinking days - for as good as they were and as many trophies as we won, who knows what else we could have achieved if those 2 and the others involved had been that much more focused and disciplined in their dedication to the mighty AFC ?
