    I dont mind where or when, I'll play.
    Just remember as well gents that most of these places have block bookings - so just because we decide on Thuesday 6.30 @ Leisureworld (for eg), does not mean that is what we will get.

    TBH, at this stage, I think Gav should take an executive decision. As if we keep only talking about it here, it just will go on forever and nothing will happen.

    As hard/impossible as that is to believe one can only take your word for it.

    I'm technical proficient and my style is not aggressive yet there have been times when I've lost out in 50/50's, 60/40's etc. and caught my opponent with the sole of my astroturf runner.

    Very possible, even when playing with my friends I wont go in for a challenge with anything other then the side of my foot, so on strangers it would be even more timid, couple that with the fact that I know I'm wearing boots means I never throw in tackles, only block shots.

    Now on a pitch, 11 a side, not a chance, full contact. :p

    All this talk of studs and flying scholes type tackles :confused: Its just a kickabout for the laugh no?

    I agree about the executive decision, Highfield sounds good, decent pitch, decent price. Sorted.

    I done all the fancy polls and things, cant I be exempt from setting the actual game up? :o :pac:

    Ok so, lets say Highfield, on a Thursday, now, does anyone have a time preference?

    I assume 7pm would suit most, its not to early and not to late.

    I am good with that time and venue anyway.

    I can play next Thursday, but gladly am away for 2 weeks after that. Will be good to go thereafter again.

    You been doing a great job so far Gav. I would hate to usurp you and take all the glory.

    Good day.

    I think I'll be available for next Thurs as well never been to Highfield but I'm sure I'll find it.

    Can anyone recommend some trainers for astro or any sort will do?

    Another thing will it be wise for people to bring two different coloured tops?
    I'm not sure about everyone else but I have a bad memory recognising my own team when playing with people I never met before :o

    I've been known to tackle my own players before and it has been embarassing!

    I suppose if we can get 10/12 yes then we can try book it for 7 next week.

    10 ppl makes it 5euro
    12 ppl makes it 4.25euro

    Ideally it would be a Boards.ie game and first preference will be given to Boards members but if youve friends who want to tag long and make up numbers then by all accounts invite them.

    Also women are welcome for any women out there that want to take part, its all a bit of fun for an hour after all.

    So far :

    That's our 12.

    vlopes and Mushy are "maybes"

    If anyone else wants to play let us know and if for any reason any of the above 12 cant make it you'll be 1st choice to replace them, the more oprions the better.

    I'll contact Highfield about the pitch and keep ye posted folks.

    Yeah, good work on organising it. That's usually the biggest obstacle.

    On another note, is the time in any way negotiable? Starting at 6 would suit me better as I've a 2 hour cycle home after, but obviously it can't be rearranged to suit just one person.:pac:

    Its proving hard to contact Highfield for whatever reason but 7pm mightn't be available.

    I'll keep trying and let ye know whats happening in due course.
