Did Nigel See This Coming?

Last week, before the game, he said we had 17 players out. It might be about to get a bit hairy

Does he want us to play?

 

Me? I'm waiting for a leg op. (8th Jan).
I'll be OK a week or so after that.

 

I played on Sunday. I’m now ****ed. Knees swollen, cuts, aches & bruises. I can hardly walk. Count me in.

 

I heard you'd been declared fit, anyway.

 

Do we need another goalie?

 

Declared “fat” Doc, you misheard

 

That's the spirit! Some of you sound in better shape than our starting 11

 

I only fell down 4 stairs. The head injury is nowt. The bad back means that I'll need the ball threading through to me instead of over the top. But apart from all this I'm up for it if Nige needs me.

The wife reckons I'm too old but she can **** off...this is for club and country.

 

Mine is 9th March (put back from 10th January) so count me in. Although I can't actually run.

 

I have had 3 hip replacements (I have had one done twice), back is reet dodgy but wtf. Bring me on for the last 10 minutes when the defence is tiring and ill slot in the winner.

 

Well I'm in my prime and fit as a fiddle.

I'll take over in injury time just to shore us up.

 

Might be needed for more than 90 if Lester v Citeh is anything to go by... 8 minutes added..... and the softest penalty you'll see...

 

There's no such thing as a soft penalty. It's either a foul or it's not.

 

We'll be alright if we buy wisely.

We could do with you if you have 3 legs

 

I had total hip replacement Jan 2016,varicose veins op ,minor stroke 2016 but all clear this year so far ,so waiting for the call .I liked to think I was another Chris Simpkin but probably more like Vinnie Grimes.

 

I will fly back immediately.....
I can play a bit of an enforcer role, work out who is their best player pulling the strings and I will go and boot him really hard putting him out of the game.... If the ref sends me off for it then it’s no great loss to the team, if he doesn’t the we identify the next best player.... we keep going until we run out of opposition players or i acquire too many coloured Christmas cards... if they have an equal enforcer type player who tries to take me out, then I can roll around on the floor crying and the ref is sure to believe i have been picked on and send off the nearest big nasty man.....
