Lovely Bloke

I've sent texts to the Summer squad.

I'll also expect to hear about any newcomers from you too.

Start a 12 week course on October the 1st. It's Monday evenings, but with a little one and another little one on the way I may not be able to commit to every week this season, possible every 2nd game and it could go potentially to every 3rd.

See you on November lads, Des if you're stuck up until then send me a text

Doing the Dublin marathon so training for that mate

Hoping that I might be able to take a bigger part in this season than I originally thought. I can walk again and am starting to work on running. They originally said it'd be near the end of the year but after a lot of work with the physio they think I could play again sometime in mid Oct. I'll see how it goes.

Says the man who headed the ball for the first time in his life and was out for six months.

I tore pretty much every ligament in my ankle.

Might have been, but then again that's most weeks on the pitch for me.

homerjay2005

yes,decent,11 a side

homerjay2005

think we are good to go for the friendlies in the next 3 weeks, most likely going to be on Mondays in Colmcilles, with the last week being in Wesley.

will confirm asap, waiting on one team to confirm they will be there but at the very least we have three teams confirmed for next 3 mondays, plus a pitch and ref.

Lovely Bloke

Can you post times?

will confirm in the next few hours.

homerjay2005

confirmed lads...7.15 in colmcilles on monday.

will worry about the next two weeks, on tuesday.

I might pop down to watch actually .

sReq | uTeK

will do but only if you remember to head the ball with your forehead not nose and eyes :P

homerjay2005

lads, anybody heading out to colmcilles from the southside near n11? its a pain in the ass of a place to get to for me, espacially for 7.15 kick off.

I'll drop along as well

homerjay2005

these lads will be very good tonight, they play in the top division so a good early test for boards.

Won't make it up to watch tonight lads best of luck

sReq | uTeK

Homer, ring me

Lovely Bloke

I texted him your number, unless you want Gary Glitter types calling you then remove your number from that post.

homerjay2005

sorted! thanks lads.

mrDerek

a good win tonight few more games and i think we can step it up a notch, by the looks of things players will be fightin for their positions in defence which is great and it looks like where nicely stocked in midfield as well.
also cheers derek for the lift

Lovely Bloke

Craig, Keith and maybe your other two to come in too, that would be 19, perhaps slightly too many by one or two, but like last season, people who don't start for one or two games in a row potentially stop coming, so I'd like to stock the squad from the start.

I think with proper full backs in place, and not square pegs in round holes, we'll be even better. No offence to those who did play in the full back positions tonight, but we do have actual full backs in the squad who are better there.

I liked that we created enough to win that game by four or five really, they never created very much though, we cleared one off the line, but it was a weak enough shot and we'd a man on the post as is proper from corners.

I think we're fairly adaptable, and can tweak the midfield combinations to suit if we want to go all out attacking or be slightly more conservative.

homerjay2005

good win, probably deserved to win by 3 or 4, but overall we were well on top.

the two results tonight were -

Boardeaux 2 Dell 1
Rocco 5 Portugal FC 2

Next Mondays weeks fixtures are -

Portugal V Dell
Rocco V Boardeaux

I think Dell want to play at 7.15 every night, so will confirm if that is what will happen.

dfx-

Pretty solid, impressive win.

I thought it took a while to settle with the fullbacks, wingers having to cover back a bit more, but it got better after half-time.

Great second goal.

Well done lads

homerjay2005

lads,

confirmed for next week - Rocco v Boards at 8.15, same venue.

Lovely Bloke

Cheers

homerjay2005

we are down 4 or 5 lads later so may need a player or two if ye have 12 or more!

hoping to get the 11, am asking a few lads, but seems that half the country is hungover today.

Lovely Bloke

I think we've 12 or possibly 13 coming.

homerjay2005

we have 11 now, but most are hungover after yesterday.

Lovely Bloke

getting the excuses in early

helimachoptor

Score?

mrDerek

we won 3-2 goals from luke collie and im not sure if jules is claiming the 3rd :P

Lovely Bloke

yep, with deflected OGs the last player from our team who touches the ball is credited with the goal.

How are you Derek?
