Long time ago. 1956-63. At a time when the school didn't have a dedicated PE teacher until the last year I was there(John Myton). Father Salmon the headmaster. He nearly killed us driving to athletics in Middlesborough.
I'm swapping for an outfield position. I spent 9 weeks in a full length arm plaster cast when I was 13 shattering my left arm saving a shot. GTF if I'm playing in goal again!
Played against your school a couple of times in '56 in my last year at Riley. Was captain and played as a centre half sweeper. Would offer my services as Manager for the team. Career CV has a 30 year playing history (from age 9) on 3 continents with subsequent spells in coaching and management. Team would have to adapt to a revolutionary 2-3-5 system!
I am actually a goalkeeper. But you left me out so go **** yourself. Caykur Rizespor XI to face Hull City Tigers Allamhouse Ehab Super Mega Turbo: -----------------Sterling Archer-------------- --Ellewoods ---City Man --- Febbos ----- Altrincham -----------Bengals Tiger-----Tigerscave (c)------- --Cortez -------- Mr Shoes---------------- Sydney ---------------------Walt------------------------- We even made it onto the news last time we played. How you say, 'come at me bro?'
Speaking of world class goalkeepers, Caykur have Charles Itandje in goal. You don't need a copy of Football Manager to remember that guy.
I'd strongly recommend dropping me to the bench, then not bringing me on. I'm a dreadful footballer, but I'm alright at intimidating the lino.
Oi, Chazz! You do know I've only got one functioning leg, don't you? Mind you, I think some City players in the past were similarly endowed/limited... So it won't be a problem, will it?
I'm comfortable with my role up front My slight lack of pace may cause me to arrive after the keeper has caught any crosses, but I can guarantee that the ball, and keeper, will be going in the net regardless As for holding the ball up, that should be ok. I reckon I'm tall enough that if I hold it up high most of the little ****ers won't be able to reach it No pre match bar though?! What is the sporting world coming to? If anyone else needs a nip to relax don't worry, I'll bring a bottle of port for the changing room Right I'm off to stretch
I can piss about half arsed and still get in - i'm that good I can't be denied. This approach never fails - just ask jimmy greaves.
Quill and Castro roll is exactly what it used to be like with a Sunday league team I played for. The 2 that were still pissed from the night before where put on the wings out of the way, as usually they could move.
