Quoted from GrimRob
Didn't we have something a few years ago where you there was an auction to get in the team photo and get a squad number? If I remember rightly the FA or league weren't too happy it and it was never repeated?

The idea of paying to play, albeit for minutes, doesn't seem to be too bad. F1 teams do it and Crawley fielded a tv reality star for 3/4 minutes.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I have had my 15 minutes of fame thanks when I played for the boys and juniors scoring 11 goals in 5 goals on the park. I had one game for Town A which I did not score but I was only 15.


Which one was their goalie standing in Pete ?

Seems you must have had a pint or three pre-match.

Impressive!

Did you score them all in the same goal or share them between the five?  


If we had five sets of goal posts on the pitch maybe one of our strikers would score now and then? It would mean more own goals though, obviously.

Supposing they are promoted with two games to go - why not stick the kid on the substitutes bench?"




Well that went well

Sounds like you're a bit like me, Pete.

I can remember some things from 30+ years ago with clarity - but ask me what I was doing 30 minutes ago & I'm not so sure!  

Keep on truckin' m8.
