**Match Thread** Tue 1st July 21:00 Wesley College -v- IBM DSL FC

pvt.joker

We beat these lads 6-1 the last time, were they missing players?
Either way, let's take nothing for granted. It's a must take 3 pointer.
A good win would keep the momentum going after a hard fought draw last week.

I'm also carryining minor injury, seems to be clearing up but not entirely sure how it'll hold up in battle. Sure will see how she goes I shpose.

LeixlipRed

Yeh mines to my ankle so I'm not chancing it. Not sure if I'll head along to watch tomorrow as might take the free evening to do some college work. Good luck if I'm not there anyway.

jaysus, we are getting some bad run with Injuries. on the plus side, dan got his cast off already and should be ok in about 4-5 weeks to play, maybe sooner but not sure, so he may get in one or 2 games before end of season. Jules, hows your injury clearing up? still missing the likes of larry and dave, any word on them coming back?

...Joe should be out again too and my brother said he'd come out if we're short.

FrankGrimes

Gav is in Spain till Saturday. Good point on Keith, where the hell did he disappear to - Des have you heard from him at all?

I'm still on crutches and have to keep the leg up so at the moment I couldn't say when I'll be up to playing, would guess 3 weeks anyways.

Good luck tomorrow, as usual you'll have to make do with what's available, but sticking it to these lads would give everyone a taste of that winning feeling again and it's easier to win again when you have fresh memories of what it...

pvt.joker

also bear in mind these lads are going to be out for revenge and may bring a few ringers along with thems so no complacency.

None.

He either got scared by being asked to pay his way, or he replied to the wrong number, like a clown

While you're here.

What is your position?

I can't remember what you said.

When fit, central midfield. In current state of fitness I would probably be a liability in the center so anywhere on the right (RB or RW) would be better.

As I said, more than happy to just watch or make up the numbers if yea are short.

pvt.joker

Bring your boots / shin guards anyway

homerjay2005

if memory serves me correct, our record against these is something like -

0-1 defeat.
6-0 win (think they started with 10, then 11 and then one lad left in a huff and walked off)
6-1 win (think they only had 10 again)

so, they seem to struggle for a full team and they have beaten us before.

3 points is a must, no excuses!

LeixlipRed

They only had 9 last time. Wont make it along for support this evening so good luck.

RB

lol, Simon might leave you at the side of the road then.

homerjay2005

5-3 win, with us leading 4-0 with about 15 minutes left. 2-0 up at half time, from 2 set pieces. we got a free kick out wide that art knocked home from all of 2 yards and then lepos corner went all the way in, via the head of a defender, possible og, but looked to me like it was going straight in as the wind had it.

sav made it 3 from close in after a great cross from simon and then art and myself combined for art to get his second. they got one back from a set piece (i think) good finish in all fairness and then we made it 5-1 with about 10 left. we had 3 or 4 more chances to make it 6 but poor final ball or just not getting on the end of it cost us. we then conceded 2 late goals, both when we got caught possession in their half and got suckered two times, the second being the last kick of the game.

so, a win is a win, im disappointed that we left them in for 2 late goals, but we have ended a streak that hopefully will see us pick up a few more wins. some good performances tonight and we opened them up in the second half 6 or 7 times. we also got to try alot of things with players in different positions (im like it upfront!) so thats pleasing and all 16 players got a decent run out. so alls happy, 5 goals and 3 points. cant argue with that.

scorers -

art, lepo, sav, art, ed.

LeixlipRed

Great win guys!

FrankGrimes

great stuff lads, fair play. Good to get the win under the belt and bagging 5 goals is always nice so.

How are you Jules?

Tusky

Yo, didnt expect to get a run out but was happy to play. Im definitely well below my desired fitness & am very rusty (havent played 11 a side in 6 years!) I'll hopefully get there in the next month.

Very strange playing 11 a side with no offside. My first time...changes everything in regards to the shape of the defense.

Its also difficult when you dont know what positions your team mates are playing in but I suppose thats to be expected in a first game.

Cheers for the run out though Des. Enjoyed it.

p.s what a corner, eh ? :P

Howya.

Keep coming out, I liked what I saw

The only to get fit is to keep playing.

Tusky wrote: »

Yeah, definitely.

Also, the defence when you went back there wouldn't exactly have been thbe most experienced with playing beside each other.

So, don't mind the goals that went in, these games from here in on are all about having a look at people in different positions, and getting lads to know each other.

Agreed, but I knew what I wanted, and I was happy with what I saw tonight from everybody

Fair enough, but you could have been the best corner taker in the world, and we'd never have known.

Now we know you are the worst

Only joking dude, practice, practice, practice.

See you again?

Still posting on boards anyway. So it's not like he's in jail or anything

FrankGrimes

DesF wrote: »

Doing alright but its a much more serious op to get over than I was expecting. Total of 60cm deep internal cuts on one leg, it has swelled, bruised and scarred like a mofo and theres a bit of an infection so I'm on antibiotics, but I'm starting to be able to put a little bit of weight on it and the physio is coming along reasonably well. He reckons my right quads have faded by almost an inch, calf by about 1/2 inch at least, so there's going to be some serious rebuilding of the leg required but for the moment the wounds are still healing so we can only push it so far for the moment.

Hoping to make it to watch one of the games next week, but to be honest, if I play a game in July it'll be a bonus.

homerjay2005

are u coming back keith? we were pretty short in defence last night, it was very close to sav being in center half :eek::eek::D

also, Des, we are not showing up as having won last night on the league table? we will stay 7th for a few more weeks, but 6th is well achieveable and then 5th, though that would need a mammoth catch up to them.however, 3 points next week and results going our way would see us 1 point off 6th and 6 off 5th and we still play both of those team and they also play each other, so its defo possible. 5th would not be a bad return after the last 2 months of injuries and absentees.
