    Hi Folks :)

    Most of you will be aware that we started a Football Team here on Boards two and a half years ago.

    We've just come to the end of our fifth season, one game left, and we have secured second place, so will get a runner's up medal.

    We can still mathematically win the league, but it would take nothing short of a miracle, as the top placed team are 3 points ahead of us, with a far superior goal difference. We'd need them to lose, and us to win, and a swing of 14 goals in the results, so it probably won't happen.

    However, after five seasons with the lads, I'm extremely proud to be able to tell you this, we'll be bringing home the silver medals.

    I'm football-playingly challenged.

    My mad skillz are in the organisational and team picking side of things :)

    I'm an excellent motivator, and all the lads heart me.

    Well done Des. Looks like you and the team have come a long way from those modest beginnings in the Phoenix Park.
