Somebody needs to take the bull by the horns and organise this. I'm no good at this kinda of thing and to be honest it's way too much effort for me but be it a one off game or a team,count me in.
how old do you have to be???
Well if it's a once off game who can we play against? Perhaps the Shels AFL team would give us a game and I'm sure plenty of you on here would love to get one over on a team wearing Shels jerseys :)
How old are you?Quote:

It would make my day if someone applied to enter a foot.ie team into the A league next year. :DQuote:

I'd be semi interested. Only know 2 or 3 people on here in real life though so that might hinder things a bit. One of the more popular lads might give it a shot :D
Are we entering into a proper league???
Green Tribe and Babysis live in Galway now so they've no excuse not to manage the team again:D.
I'd say it would be best for someone that has been on the team before to organise it.
Right well the only way that I can see this working is for a load of us to have a game some day next week or the following week if people are around, just a simple 7 a side or something like that, Phoenix Park suit people ok?!
Not really but majority rules.Quote:

Ah come on, a trip to the countryside would be good for ye. Bit of unpolluted air and all that:D. Plus, if Longford go belly-up, we can take over Flancare as our home ground. Forward planning lads;).Quote:

There isn't enough interest to have a full team to enter into a league. Which is a bit sad because the amount of people who think they can talk a good game on this site is about 90% of the members.
I'd be interested in playing for a team that was entered into a league. I'm sure you could get 15 players together that would be able to get to Dublin on matchdays
I'd be interested in joining a proper team going ito a league but there doesn't seem to be anyone with any info on joining a league and stuff.
Right then time for a list for a one-off game..

Now obviously there will be last minute omissions from that through travel/work/having to wash their hair, but for an initial run..
Are they three deliberate pokes at me!;)Quote:

after september im available i have to work weekends at the minute busy season and all. :(Quote:

I'll get around to organising something and I'll PM all in dfx-'s list and anyone else that's PM'd me.

Your best player defects :D
Follow the boards.ie way of things it worked very well, i could get foot.ie a kit if needed sponsored by www.filestores.com
kdjac
We don't need him. He's a poor man's Peter Crouch :D
Don't worry I'll take over the playmaker role.
I could play a game on a weekend from October on. Working weekends for the summer until then.
To get a team going to enter in a league you'd realistically need 20 to 22 players. Anyone think it migt be word duplicating this thread in every forum on here? There are a lot of people who post on here that might not have noticed it hidden in here
One in the junior forum would be a smart idea actually. I'll get on it now.
This is the league the boards.ie team is playing in. The matches are played in Rathfarnham on a Sunday. Cost for a season works out at a bit more than €100 per person. New season starts in September AFAIK.Quote:

www.astro.ie- there's actually a good few venues around Dublin but I insist on Rathfarnham.:p I think you're right about the squad thing but there'd be a limit on matchday squad.Quote:

Not having to register players would be perfect. ie, if you're stuck your Dad can play :D I think all the astro.ie venues are on the southside anyway
