    sounds like your playing solo a bit too much, got hairy hands as well?;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,844 ✭✭✭shivvyban


    There are only a number of ways for me to come back at you on that... All of which result in me being banned!

    Once again...

    attention please...

    basketball in Sportsco (which was suggested by Nialo and by some freakish coincidence is next door to his house :rolleyes:) is on this Sunday, the 18th of October, at 6pm!

    I would love to do this, but I'm not sure if I can make it this Sunday - I won't know until Saturday, so I'll post early on Sunday if I can make it. Either way, I'm definitely up for playing on an ongoing basis.

    Word of warning, I haven't played any basketball for about 15 years and I'm pretty unfit at the moment, so don't be expecting great things from me!

    Thats no problem at all! I'll keep tabs on the forum or if you like send me you number in a pm and I can give ya a text on saturday! :)

    Seriously, don't worry about being unfit! Most of us are in the same boat (except of course the amazing tall hairy Nialo who has to trek to and from sportsco on Sunday! :rolleyes:)

    Also anyone who has basketballs, please bring!! :)

    Excellent.
    Hope you can make it.

    I’m very unfit too, and hadn’t played for a good few years too. Started playing basketball again about 3 weeks and a bit of jogging, and I feel allot better for it.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,844 ✭✭✭shivvyban


    Hey ya N-LINE, course you can! 6pm on Sunday at sportsco... hope to see you there....


  • Registered Users Posts: 33 N-line


    Ok, can you tell me all details first, like how to get there and how much $$ i need to bring ?
    And for how long are we gonna be there?


  • Registered Users Posts: 666 ✭✭✭scottie pippen


    N-line its in ringsend, at the Sportsco Gym near the race track.
    have a look back through some of the posts.

    Shivvy Booked it for 6 until 7

    you can get a 1,2 or 3 bus from city centre.
    Bring about €10 just to be safe.

    should only be about €5 a head if we get a good turn out.
    prob about €7 each.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,844 ✭✭✭shivvyban


    Ok guys, every one needs to be there at six! the court is booked before and straight after us so to get our hour please be on time!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 104 ✭✭Tourneque


    Wasn't sure if I could make it before but I'll drop by too :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,806 ✭✭✭Lafortezza


    That was fun, although I'm really out of shape, hopefully that will improve the next few weeks.

    I didn't catch everyone's name but I was Luke, the guy with black track bottoms and glasses.
