the 'event' has been immortalised here.

**James** · 23/02/2003, 5:34 PM

bah humbug
bad refereeing decisions and all that
dont think the pitch or weather or the fact that we were unfit suited the mod team

**Colm** · 23/02/2003, 8:18 PM

We were robbed, our unbelievable footballing talents were overshadowed by our alarming, but not surprising, lack of fitness.

All mods have now been put on an intensive training program and we are confident that we WILL win the rematch.

Excellent result! But how I cant understand!

Come on ye boyz in green!

Boo, Boo Scotty questioning the ability of of wonderful team after crying off!!!!

Scotty out

Anyone else having serious trouble walking after playing that match? I suppose I was given rough treatment by the Mods defence, especially one tackle by James in the box, fair play to Ref for picking up on it

So for the rematch will the Mods have 20 away goals?

Here, when people were saying we'd make a regular thing of it, I thought we were talking about, like, once a year?

Good man ref. That would be the job. Maybe this time you will hang around for a few pints afterwards?

Good game as well, where fitness was the telling factor. Thanks for the ball in face SOC.

The rematch will be great. Revenge is great.

Nice one Ref, we'll even try to give ya a bit more work next time- it was a very clean game apart from a few tackles that James was aiming in SEJ's direction and Eannas yellow card. This time there is a score to be settled and blood will be spilled!

Sorry GWA I was aiming for �anna, got you tho'

How could fitness be the telling factor?? We were shockingly unfit too, although our ringer Rob seemed to be able to play a bit

**James** · 24/02/2003, 12:13 PM

ROB OUT
or else he's a mod nxt time

Em, maybe if we could get a few more for next time, and have a few players rolling etc.

Yeah, even if each team had one extra player it would enable us all to take a few minutes much needed rest.

Lads, one of ye was disputing the fact that fitness was the telling factor. Well from what I've heard most of the non-mods play on some sort of regular basis, none of us do. Work it out.

**shedite** · 24/02/2003, 4:47 PM

I know the subs idea sounds great but would anyone have fancied waiting around in the rain waiting to go back on? I prefer tiredness to the flu any day.

Defo in for a rematch though

**Gary** · 25/02/2003, 10:51 AM

Are we having the same people showing up, or do we have a few drop outs?

**pete** · 25/02/2003, 1:24 PM

I think the jinx of the red jerseys definitely affected the Mods confidence as you only have to look at citys perfromances any time they wear it as weel

Obviously my ringer did not work out so well so think i'll refrain from trying that again.

Sorry i didn't make the Gateway for afters mainly due to my own stupidity - looks like good time had by all from those pics...

I wouldn't be able to make any March date (not that my skills be missed) but could maybe a 2003 season opening weekend date or something...
