The game against boards.ie was 6-2 i think with only a goal or 2 in it at half time, which considering they'd all played together regularly,had the right footwear and were a hell of a lot fitter wasn't as bad as it sounds.
Last year we played a regular playing Dutch side who were familiar with each other and only lost by two goals and the same with the boards side..only me, Anto and Bluebeard have played in both, so we hadn't played together as a team before and we were always going to lose heavily..
That's why Sunday if it gets going is more about becoming familiar
That along with the talent and fitness deficiencies of course![]()

Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.

I think we should hold off til the summer season tbh. Remember we'd have to buy a whole set of gear as well which would cost a bit
It sounds a good idea - figure out a regular squad through a few games between yourselves, and play a good few friendlies during the Winter if possible (watch as the numbers dwindle in the wet!). Fund raise at the same time, and come the Summer season, you should have people interested, "Fit" and enthusiastic, plus the money for the kit will be raised, and by then someone should have tricked dahamsta into getting his internet empire to sponsor the team.
I reckon that it wasn't just as a team that some of us hadn't played before
Present company clearly excepted, of course
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

Looking at the Superfrank, even if one or two drop out we could still have a decent side, especially seeing as we can sub on - sub off as much as we want!

I've decided to join the boards.ie side for the new season so hopefully there wont be a clash as I'll choose boards over this one. The manager is a mate so I'd feel bad otherwise. Fully committed otherwise. See you all Sunday

Right so. Makes perfect sense to me. I'll play for both teams unless the games are the same night and then I'll choose boards first
Fair enough.
