Off Topic Thread!

Seeing as most seem to get on and have good banter on the league threads, I figured we may as well have a thread for non soccer manager stuff!!!

Had a nice accumulator on for tonight myself, just missed out cause of West Ham holding Chelsea!

I'm from Belgium but moved to Ireland when I was 17 ... I had a choice and picked Cork ..Been in Ireland now nearly as long as I was in Belgium.


Oh and my club in Belgium was / is Club Brugge, but I support "Newcastle Dissilusioned F.C." and also keep an eye on Swindon Town results due to family ties to swindon.

What do The Groves call themselves now?? It's so hard to keep up with names given that there's always a whole host of them changing every season!!

LC = Lakelands Celtic??

Played in Belgium through every age group upto u16's

moved to Ireland, signed for the local team in the west cork league, played every game while the coach was on a few months hol in US, he came back and all of a sudden 'local' guys started getting game time and mine reduced week on week.

then for a west cork cup final (even though fellas would get a fair shot, ie show for training and you are on the panel) I found out I wasnt on the panel despite making EVERY training, and other fellas who'd missed 40-50% of training were in --- at 1/2 time I got in my car and fecked off, refused the stupid minature cup when they brought it round to mine after.

Havent played since (other than the odd friendly 5-a-side while in college)...

No no I'm not with a club..

In all honesty I had absolutely no interest in soccer whatsoever until about 6 months ago! I said I'd set up a fantasy football team for the craic and it sorta spiraled from there.. Now my weekends have become devoted to the premier league! :eek:

I'm on a free package (promotion) with Sky atm, and I just rang to lower my subscription to a more affordable €36 when the bill kicks in next month...

I'm not sure where I read it, but I asked about adding just SS1, and it's €20 for anyone that would be interested.
