    Seeing as Anto is a midfield i'm quite happy playing mid if Joe wants to play right back that much, i'd be more a defensive minded midfield I would suppose (ie. no skill but no problem diving in there with dodgey tackles)

    And the auction begins, 10euro spots available at centre half, competition for everything else.

    Shane, like in any auction if you make a bid by accident it stands.

    superb idea, i bid a tenner for a centre half spot. play or not, if you want an eleven a side astro turf (in ucd) to play on ill sort it out for either free or very cheap.

    Is centre half midfield or defense? Also are we playing on playing some wacky 4-5-1 formation or are you lads just bidding on the same striking spot for sh*ts and giggles.

    Finally anyword on a date for this?

    you've clearly never tried to mark me!!! (doubt i'll be allowed play up front, apparantly im a cnetre back these days)

    a couple of things:

    1. sat 31st of march, 8pm reg, 8.30 cards dealt is confirmed.
    2. structure i discussed with sarah was a 2k starting stack (€40) and 2k for rebuys, rebuys are only €10 so this should allow for plenty of all in action! Any comments on this?
    3. all grosvenor lane players MUST wear their jersey while playing... its only fair!
    4. as for the footy match, can people start suggesting times. does weekend midday suit better, or midweek in the evening? 90mins (45+45) or (30+30+30) to give gholimoli a couple of chances to get his breath back?
    5. we have a pitch, pitch number 7 in bushy park in terenure, lovely pitch!
    6. for a date i was thinking monday april 30th, maybe 6.30 pm kickoff. (we will have to check with the park if the pitch is free as this is usually when midweek fixtures start piling up.) the alternative would be to wait til end of may start of june when there's no irish open, no GJP festival, no student exams, no footy season to cater around. or.... BOTH, the first match, then THE REMATCH!!
    7. we will need someone to do a book for the match, i want a tenner shoutman to be sent off!

    Centre half is DC, KP is in the running for a CF spot thats why the lads are bidding, I believe KP is working on an improved offer.

    the sooner we play the game the better, in fairness its only 3 hours max outa everyones busy schedules (exams etc) and could be a nice break/good bita craic. three thirty mins could be good, just for the purpose of those of us who arent able to breath cohesively - ps im a competitive cu$t so cant wait to beat yee - fundraiser or not!!

    i suppose if the majority of wannabe footy players are at the fundraiser we can agree on a day and time there.

    yeah, I'm hoping to borrow a few quid off Ollieboy after he wins the Cardiff GUKPT so I can up the ante in the bidding for the centre-forward spot ;)

    I'm pretty certain I'm the best footballer that posts on the poker forum, but with all the positions taken I'll just have to do my best Roy Keane impression on the touchline.

    I'm definitely up for the football, and may be up for the poker depending on moving some other things around next weekend.

    I would. That result was achieved before the mighty Lloyd returned from America to keep goal. Just so you know.

    saturday june 2nd!? i'll get onto the council to make sure our pitch is free for saturday june 2nd at about 2 or 3pm. dont think it clashes with any big poker event and the season is over and exams are over. so that could work.

    i also think our end of year bash will be that night so it makes sense to have a match in the afternoon!
