[superfrank]

Hopefully dfx- will fill in. He plays in nets.

[Stevo Da Gull]

the seagull is the other lad

No he was talking about me! :eek: :D

I'm hapy enough to be 3rd, 4th or 5th choice anything.. you know, reliable in a sort of unreliable way ;)

[LeixlipRed]

You were the the lad in the same Bray jersey as superfrank were you Stevo? I'm rubbish with names

[theworm2345]

What was the lineup and score (or weren't you counting?)

[Stevo Da Gull]

You were the the lad in the same Bray jersey as superfrank were you Stevo? I'm rubbish with names

Yeah thats me, and I'm equally as bad with names.. cant remember yours either :eek:... Jaysus, it was only about 4 hours ago.

[superfrank]

What was the lineup and score (or weren't you counting?)
Rotating teams but the top scorer was Phil, the keeper. :o

[LeixlipRed]

Superfrank will fill you in on the lineup there. I think everyone rattled in a fair fw goals. The goals were ridiculously wide and defending is only an art on tv :D

[LeixlipRed]

Yeah thats me, and I'm equally as bad with names.. cant remember yours either :eek:... Jaysus, it was only about 4 hours ago.

[Buller]

Buller (James, not John)
*Nods in approval* :)

Yeah good game lads... 5 euro for 2 hours wasn't bad!!! :D I'd say we'd have a very decent 6 a side team alright

[superfrank]

Any plans for another game lads?!
Yeah sure. Will you be able to join us next time?

[steno]

Was a good ole kick around yesterday would be up for it again.

[bray boy]

I'd say we'd have a very decent 6 a side team alright

i think wed have an alright team if we actually got positions and tactics sorted but sure thats up to thre gaffer i suppose;)

[sfc red]

I'll be there next time too.

[LeixlipRed]

Did you send an email off about the 6 a side superfrank?

[superfrank]

Yes I sent it last night. I'm still waiting for a reply. The last time it took a few days and the email was sent at 1 in the morning.

[John83]

Astro is nearly €1,000 for a panel of 10.

If you're booking in UCD again, let me know, and I may be able to get it done on a student card.

[Block G Raptor]

Would Be v-interested in a coaching role if there is one going
Quite good at tactics and that sort of thing

[LeixlipRed]

What sort of a professional outfit do you take us for??? :D

[superfrank]

I accept BGR's application as coach.

[bray boy]

he just cant handle the pressure

[sligoman]

Pulling his hair out and everything!:p

[inexile]

id be well up for it as well lads if ye could fit me in

[aido_b]

Yeah sure. Will you be able to join us next time?

Yes midweek the until the 7th of August and then im around all week after that.

[theworm2345]

I accept BGR's application as coach.
Isn't that for the chairman to decide? If Glazer can do it from over here so can I. I'm not pouring all of this money in to attract foreign players to be underminded, am I (I really just asked who Mohammed was to try and make it a secret, he's our new recruit)? ;)
Your doing a great job otherwise though :)

It's definitely a lot cheaper then the 11 a side and as LeixlipRed pointed out the pitches are bigger then the 5 a side one in UCD.

Still about 6 weeks to prepare for it if there's enough interest.

Good stuff. I'd be definatly interested, as long as the pitches are a good bit wider than those ucd cages!

[superfrank]

Yeah well we appear to have some wide players so a bigger pitch would help.

[LeixlipRed]

The DCU pitches are identical to the UCD ones. And that's one of the venues. the other pitches I don't know about. And it's 6 a side so wide players aren't our real concern. Remember you'll only have 5 players outfield. Small side games are all about first touch, close control, good finishing and physicality. Also, it's not that much cheaper. you're still talking about over 100 euro per person not including the cost of getting a kit.

[superfrank]

kdjac brought up the costs of kits on another thread.

I don't know about anyone else but I personally prefer the Europa no. 2 (the orange one) (http://www.proteamsports.net/Resources/europa.jpeg)

If we were to have 16 players, register for the league and get the kits with proteam, it'd break down about 120 each. At the moment it'd be about 213 each (for 9 players).

[steno]

Orange one is not bad all. I'm up for this as long we definetly have the players for a 'season' .

Could just get the foot.ie shirts that dahamsta put up for sale and get numbers printed on the back. Everyone could buy their own green shorts and socks. Can't find the thread about the t-shirts but I thought I definetly saw one or maybe I am going mad. Just a suggestion I'm easy either way.

[Anto McC]

Orange is rotten and unlucky.

BTW,Milestone 6000 threads in the Eircom League section of the forum.

This is the thread (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=66311)

I was thinking that too, especially for the first year. It would be an awful lot cheaper.

[LeixlipRed]

6 weeks til we have to enter? Will we have time to assemble all the people who said they were interested and see what we've got before then? Because, and i don't wana offend anyone here, if we enter a team based with who turned up Sunday we'll get destroyed. At any standard. Does anyone else not think that? I;ve played in leagues and competitions like this for years and I know what they;re like. They're tough as hell

[superfrank]

I know what you mean. The thing is though right now we've a chance to put a team together. I know very well if we wait around another few months some of the lads will go off and join other teams and we'll be back to square one. If we really want the team put together now's the time.

[LeixlipRed]

You're right on that probably but I don't think the players are there right now to enter a league. As i said previoulsy I'm playing with boards.ie team now so if this doesn't go ahead I'm not too bothered but I'd still like to see it happen if possible

[superfrank]

As would I, which is why I really want to put this team together. You said yourself it's a football website and we have the opportunity to put a team together right now. It is very hurried and I'd prefer the whole summer to prepare.

Unfortunately this wasn't brought up earlier. The players we have right now mightn't be ready for a league but waiting around for 6 months or so won't help either as people will lose interest and, let's face it, not everyone will turn up for friendlies.

Imo, now's the time to act. Now I won't be around for a meet up this weekend but I'll be free afterwards. Can the people genuinely interested in the team let me know when they'd be available next.
