    Hi,

    I have a headcold coming on. Just felt very weak yesterday and been sneezing, etc all day today. Don't feel as weak though.

    I have a soccer match tmr. Anyone think I should definitely not play because of my cold? Or could I chance it?

    Ta.

    If you see this in time, I'd say go for it. Wear a couple of layers under your jersey (and keep them on even if you feel too hot) and a heavy enough jacket for when you're warming up or if you're warming the bench. I'm sure it won't do any harm but I'm not a docter so I could giving potentially harmful advice. But I personally would be playing, it takes broken bones to stop me.

    To be honest with you I would knock the match on the head, now I know guys will get on now saying, feck that Pro-Nutrition you must be crazy but I always listen to my body. People will tell you to wear extra clothes while playing and all that but of when your finished your game, one minute your body temp is really high with your pores open, then the game is over and your temp crashes again. Not good. I would rather miss the game and not spend the next week in bed
