Veterans League

After watching the divisional cup final on Sunday it made me realise how much I missed my Sundays playing football.

Ive now got thoughts of getting a team to play in the league next season.

I did used to run a team in the league about 4 years back and its one of the best leagues to play in for veterans (though there arent that many about).

Anyhow if youre 35+ and want to play on Sundays (11am kick offs),contact me either by P.M or e-mail halesy@sky.com

I may turn out for the odd game but can't commit to full time.

Our first friendly is this sunday (16th) against Breightmet Utd Vets,on Breightmet Utd`s ground,Bury Road (near speed camera/tyre place).

Kick off is 11am.

Any supporters are more than welcome (there is a bar facility).

 

 

You're going to get absolutly dicked! 8-0 at least.

 

Do you want supporters like me to attend?

Lost. 3-1 or 3-2. Wife saw The Daubhill dribbler at rounders today.

 

Very conservative!

It was 3-0.

 

First goal was a combination of TSO being slow to react to a ball over the top (due to him being inebriated from his early morning dancing at The Swan) and our keeper fumbling the ball under pressure.

Second goal was from a badly defended corner - resulted in a shot from edge of box that I tried to block.... but inadvertently sliced it past our keeper!

Third goal was again from a badly defended corner - ball swung to back post and nobody picked up their big lad who headed in.

 

We had a few chances - but didn't really put them under enough pressure.

 

Bear & AWO both had pretty outstanding games in the middle of the park.

 

3-4-3 formation didn't work.
