Theres a few people on here in Perth looking for a game. Check back on previous posts there, i linked to 2 venues in Perth as well. I reckon you could get a team together handy enough.

The fellas all turned up but they had underestimated how good I actually was. I could see that my superior skills would mean that our only chance of success was for me to hold on to the ball. The rest of the lads walked off in disgust and left me to win the match for us 6-0 with me scoring 5 and the ball hitting off the goalkeeper's backside.*






















*Either that or we were the only team that turned up.

Lads, Got this email back from them:

Hi ****,

Extremely sorry for the huge mix-up! On Friday we found out that the venue
wasn't going to be usable this weekend and called all teams from both our
Sunday and Monday competitions to inform them of this. Unfortunately I
could only leave a message on your phone.

We will be definitely starting this coming Sunday February 7.

I will be in contact with all teams ASAP with game times.

Extremely sorry for the huge mix-up and look forward to seeing you next
weekend!

Regards,

****

I never got any message on me phone!

But yeah, looks like its DEFINATELY starting this weekend!

Sorry again, and cheers to everyone who showed up Sunday! Bring on our (2nd) first game!!!

BossArky

We should push for a tournament walk over... or at least a 10 point deduction for all other teams :pac:

The_B_Man

jaysus i'd say we'd be lucky to get a free game outta them!

The_B_Man

Hadnt heard back so rang the bloke.
He said he's waiting on the venue to get back to him so he'd said he'd ring me tomorrow definately before noon to give us our time, or to tell us it starts the following sunday!!

Either way im bringin a soccer ball so we'll have a kick about in albert park if its not on.

CiaranC

Sounds like a bit of a chancer this guy

Was thinking that myself.

The_B_Man

We'll see if hes a chancer in a few days. At least no money has changed hands at this stage, but sure who knows, everything might come together in the next week and it'll be grand! I'm expecting a call within 2 hours. i'll keep ya posted.

The jerseys thing was funny. Why would you need jerseys when you can just wear bibs? It's not La Liga ffs. :pac:

BossArky

I'm bringing my red Leyton Orient jersey on Sunday.

Maybe we can all wear red if enough of you support the likes of Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal.... etc

The_B_Man

Ye good idea. i've a united jersey i can wear.

Doc

Dont think I even own a red t-shirt.

Just wear white and use the blood of our opponents - Terry Butcher-style. :pac:

CiaranC

Red me hole

The_B_Man

I also have a black one if thats better?
we'll prob have bibs anyway so it doesnt matter.

did anyone happen to catch the Futsal on the telly the other day? think it was on ABC. It was a pretty high standard, coz it was the finals. Dunno what venue it was in but I thought for a second it coulda been why our place was busy last sunday, but then sure we woulda seen more people.

It looked good though. And they all had jerseys and it made it seem way more professional so i can see why the ask for everyone to have jerseys.

CiaranC

Sidney77

The_B_Man

i have a soccer ball if anyone is interested for a little kick around in the park on sunday?

CiaranC

Any football this weekend?

Funkstard

Just got into Melbourne yesterday. Haven't started work yet so if there's a kick around* happening soon and you need numbers I'm well up for it. In St. Kilda.

Cheers.

Is anyone else up for this? Theres either Albert Park or another real good one across from the ALbert Hospital at Commercial Rd. If theres no 5-a-side we should at least organise this.

CiaranC

Yeah I reckon we should try organise our own weekly kickabout. We are nearly there with the numbers for a 5 aside anyway. Some evening during the week would suit me.

The_B_Man

Just got this back:

Hi ****,

I am still awaiting conformation from Wesley, however at this stage,
unfortunately I believe we are going to have to put our Sunday Men's league
on hold until we hear from Wesley. (I did have a two hour meeting with
them on Tuesday). As soon as I know anything I will email all teams.

Apologies and regards,

****

kickabout here??

Funkstard

How does Monday evening sound? St. Kilda fest makes the weekend a no-go for a few of us I imagine

CiaranC

Sounds good to me

The_B_Man

ye im good. i work 9-5 so maybe 6:30 kick off, or does everyone want to get some grub first?

BossArky

I cannot do Monday or Thursday evenings as I train elsewhere those days. Other weekdays would be fine.

Funkstard

Right so is Monday out then? I don't think I can do Tuesday but am free apart from that

The_B_Man

lol right so some ppl cant make it this weekend, others cant make monday, or tuesday.

Hows wednesday?
i can do any day.

m@cc@

Any day is good for me.

The_B_Man

OK, Who is available wednesday? We need enough for preferably 2 teams so feel free to bring some mates too. maybe if we could get 10 people we could have a 5 a side game!

CiaranC

Wednesday is fine by me

BossArky

Don't wait on me. I've got a competition next Saturday and cannot run the risk of getting my legs hacked off before it

Any other week I'm fine with the exception of Mondays and Thursdays as mentioned above. I may be able to get another fellow to come along too.

Funkstard

Wednesday is sound for me.

Tigerandahalf

Doc

The_B_Man
