    I'm Hugh. It's Pete and myself doing most of the organising.
    Anyway, good man on the entering. It should be a good buzz.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Lads, there's a Boards Beers that night.

    Could be a chance for the boards masses to meet their heroes.

    Expect to be asked for autographs!

    Anyway, I think I'll pop along to this, if anyone wants to join me.

    Messrs Maguire, basement area, from 7.30 on Sat Aug 11th.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,032 ✭✭✭FrankGrimes


    I'm well on for getting a session together for our team, cos it's about time we had one...so maybe calling that night a Boards Team Session will help others like me get over the mental hurdle of attending a boards beers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    :D

    Would you be nervous in front of the seventy thousand fans you were on about on Tuesday night Jules?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,346 ✭✭✭✭homerjay2005


    yep, im well on for the footie and the piss up...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Right, that's seven people, including me. Is Ste still coming??

    I'll ask on Tuesday who else is interested.

    i can maybe get a player or 2 if we are stuck...

    not that it bothers me, but seen as we have a few dubs, dublin will be playing their 1/4 final that day in croker....maybe somthing to note now, rather than later on....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    What?

    Are you talking about Gah? On my forum? I'll ban you.

    Email; regarding this
    Hi everyone.

    Just a quick update on the tournament..

    We've decided to expand it to a 16-team competition.
    This means everyone gets to play at least three games - 4 groups of 4 teams.
    The top two in each group go through to a semi final.

    This also means that we have room for a few more teams, so tell your friends!

    Also, if anyone can bring a set of bibs for their team, let me know.

    We could also use volunteers to referee games, we'll even provide whistles!

    I'll be back in touch soon with final details.


    Joe, Michael, Jules, Darragh, Des, Russell, Geoff

    We need two or three more lads, surely two or three others want in.

    I'll ask again tomorrow evening.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,282 ✭✭✭BlackWizard

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,118 ✭✭✭LoBo


    where are the grounds in UCD?

    also let us know if anyone from that list of 9 can't make it (or doesn't want to pony up the €20 for the starving puppies), so's we can organise replacements


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Did you not play in either of the friendlies in UCD Colm?

    Do you know UCD at all, they're behind the Sports Hall out there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    I've sent a text to the nine people listed.

    Bring Water.

    It kicks off at 11.30, so be there at 11.

    Bring Water.

    I'll have the Boardeaux Jersies, and Bibs with me.

    Make sure to bring plenty of water.

    We are going to Messrs Maguire afterwards.

    Bring Water to the football tournament.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,081 ✭✭✭LeixlipRed


    Dave Murray (WeAreShels) was trying to get a team in for this but think he didn't get enough in the end. PM him if you want an extra player Des

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    Probably see him tonight in Tolka...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 154 ✭✭WeAreShels


    And you did ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 732 ✭✭✭kaizersoze1980


    We were robbed...
    Won 2, drew 1 of our group games . 0-0, 6-0, 1-0 I think.
    Through to the semis, we lost 1-0, hit the crossbar twice I think in that game. We could have won the whole thing but for some poor reffing and some bad luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,282 ✭✭✭BlackWizard


    That team that beat us went on and won the final 2-0


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 49 avernus


    Thanks for coming out lads. Hard luck on going out in the semis - my team did too, we went down on penos. Tough break! I think one of your lads helped us out with reffing too, so cheers for that.

    We raised a good bit of cash for PAWS, had some great games and a fun day all round.. so mission accomplished. not sure of the total raised yet but we'll post it up on thumped.com later in the week if you're interested.



    Also - we lost a few footballs out there on the day so if any of you came across 2 brand new white & black Adidas F50s, a brand new white and green Nike premiership ball or a slightly older white Nike United ball - give us a shout. We'd really appreciate it.




    Thanks again for coming out.

    Hugh :D
