charlie Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Its the boys who started 5's before I came here. They organised it initially, they decide the teams and kep the scores re player of the year etc. 3 points for a win, 1 for a draw, 0 for a loss. night out in May. £4 a week each, £3 for the park. Balance is night out kitty. Last week a kitty of £650 - good night out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irvine_buddie Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 Div, I supect the thing to do is to try and organise the teams in advance. I know that is what happens in here. there are 2 or 3 boys (the self appointed committee) who try to pair players off against each other ( A keeper in each team Ball winners / players etc). picking teams on the evening doesn't really work and no one wants to be last pick. Also, if we can issue teams in advance we might even know some names. just a thought but what do I Know. I won the donly of the year on Friday, won a trophy and left it on the train - It may be in dalmuir. Charlie Could be a good idea to pick the teams beforehand since we pretty much know peoples strengths/weaknesses by now. We wasted a good 5 minutes trying to sort teams out last night. Would help with names too (I have a memory like a sieve). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
div Posted May 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 I will try and pick teams for next week then Our current kitty stands at £22 but there was a suggestion that we should invest in another set of goalkeeper gloves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum Gilhooley Posted May 30, 2013 Report Share Posted May 30, 2013 I should be back next week (unless all 16 who played last night can make it of course). We probably know the players well enough now to appoint two captains and just have them pick teams. Im not available next week Div, but as usual i`ll be ok for Monday !

RickMcD Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 We will of course do "Tic-Tac" to decide who gets first pick. And if I am last pick I will take my ball home in a huff. 'Tic-Tac' I've never heard of. What's that? Could it be like 'Cock or Hen?' I imagine some of our slightly more senior members (I'm getting there) might remember that.

The best one was to do get someone to turn their back and pick a number for who was to go in goals.. and they always seemed to pick their own number .

Tennant's Lager Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Could be a good idea to pick the teams beforehand since we pretty much know peoples strengths/weaknesses by now. We wasted a good 5 minutes trying to sort teams out last night. Would help with names too (I have a memory like a sieve). Would agree with this - having a 'gamesmaster' type figure or figures that can act to balance the teams is a decent idea. Unfortunately though, fear I'll need to take a back seat. About a week before my first game was noticing bad knee pains, and over the last fortnight they've been getting worse. Daren't risk it next week anyway - better that someone else has a shot instead. Hope it's a closer & better game lads! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without trying to sound harsh, I really don't think those teams will make for a good game. Don't know everyone's names yet but those I do makes me think it may be a bit one sided!

DannysRevolution Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Very difficult to pick the teams, what way to you think one sided ? I know its not easy for you Just those teams are strongly 1 sided. I know its not everyones cup of tea but I reckon captains is the way to go until everyone knows names so we can then choose teams in advance. Just my opinion though!

Guest somner9 Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Get the fans/members/corporate board to decide the teams, that'll expidite things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilPar72 Posted June 4, 2013 Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Very difficult to pick the teams, what way to you think one sided ? The bib's team looks the same as last week, and a bit stronger. When it was already quite onsided in their favour last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

div Posted June 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2013 Ok, maybe I have got the teams wrong. I didn't play last week so I have no idea who was in what team and how the game went ! Might just appoint two captains and let them pick the teams on the night instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer it when you are in my team as you are one of the very few who stays at the back. Along with perennial right back Richard ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
