    I am coming from the northside and I don't mind Leister City,its all the one to me the poxy southside is the southside.

    I know were nutgrove SC is and I believe its not far away,should be easy to find dead straight from Harlods Cross.

    It's on the road behind it. Bout a 2 minute drive. And it's only that long because of the ridiculous amount of ramps...

    I'm sure lifts can be arranged for the few of us that live northside, I trust that no one is a weirdo.

    You need a lift up man?

    I agree with Sam, book it and they will come. Just tell people where to go and they'll get there. Can't please all the people all the time etc.

    Ok rang about the Leicster Celtic pitch there.
    The guy isn't in front of his computer so he isn't sure if there's a booking pending or not.
    He's going to ring me back.

    There's an FAI course on there until 3 so it's a possibility we could book from 3-5.
    However if there's a pending booking how would it suit people to start later if we cant get it for 3?
    Would around 5 be too late?

    To be perfectly honest I'm hoping myself for at 3 o'clock kick off. He said he should be able to accommodate us as three. He just has to check that the other guy who takes bookings hasn't got any lined up already.

    the leicester celtic pitch, beside nutgrove, is a synthetic grass pitch. it is ideal!!

    the kilians pitch is a hockey surface.

    Ok lads pitch is booked for Sunday.
    Earliest I could get it was 4 o'clock as there's and FAI coaching course going on.
    However the guy agreed to do us a deal so we're getting two hours for the price of one, so it's only costing 140euro.

    Here's the website of Leicster Celtic, it's pretty good, they have a google maps and a directions tab depending on which direction your coming from so it shouldn't be hard to find for anyone.

    http://www.leicesterceltic.ie/

    I want everyone there by half three to sort the team and get paid up.
    You don't pay you don't play, simple as.

    Nice 1 looking forward to this.

    1 question though - is it possible to wear moulded football boots or are dimpled runners only allowed? I played on different all weathers where 1 or the other or both are allowed

    Thanks

    Straight from the website:
    Note steel studs are prohibited.

    So I assume you can wear mouldies, I probably will. Bring astro's aswell just incase. Also everyone make sure to have shinguards!

    What rules are we implementing?

    Offside?

    Slide tackles?

    In the Astro.ie League, in which the Boards Team plays there is no offside, and no slide tackles allowed.

    There IS a backpass rule.

    ty Des for agreeing to ref.

    I wouldn't mind if we introduced offsides, even if the ref makes mistakes it will be a lot better then having lads blatently standing offside, I'm doubting that either side will be playing an elaborate offside trap.

    Also even though slide tackles were allowed, I'd say there was probably less then five slide tackles in the whole game so its not something for those who are afraid of slide tackles to be worried about.
