Greg Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 This game will either be on the 3g pitch we played on last time or the new Newcastle Uni 3g pitch if we can get it. Obviously if we can't get either then we might need change to normal astro but with it still being a good few months away we should be ok. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do get 3G I'd make sure they know you can only use football boots with blades not studs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 actually Nixon, that's not true. we had this debate before, can't remember who it was that kept confusing people... on 3g you're not allowed meta studs or metal tipped blads....plastic studs, blades and moulded boots are fine. either 3g pitch is more than adequate for our standard of football ;-) the newcastle uni one can only be booked up til 5pm, so we'd have to book 3pm-5pm IIRC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hmm I thought that last pitch was heavy on the legs, can we not got for a grass pitch? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 had this debate as well 3G allows people to play football, although it does take the edge out of the game by discouraging sliding tackles. in terms of how hard the pitch is, I suppose in May time we'll have pretty firm pitches..otherwise they'll be waterlogged and unplayable Nixon - metal tipped studs/blades are all over the place, my last purchase was a pair of Addidas Predators with metal tipped blades a few weeks ago, they're mint.

gray Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm currently in the process of setting up a tool for organising footy matches online - you can sort formations, subs, reserves and do it all via web and sms - would the organisers of this game be interested in testing the site for your upcoming match? http://www.whocanplay.co.uk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gray Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hahah It basically means you get a text saying "DAVE has invited you to play as STRIKER on 23/5/09 at 3pm at NE8 9KH. Reply YES/NO" Doesn't go into detailed tactics or anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hopefully I'll be back in blue for the next game, bit of match practice and general fitness and you'll see a different player. :colo: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 late afternoon/early evening I suppose. 1) gives people a chance to recover from drink-related activities on saturday after the match 2) its not slap-bang in the middle of the day so those people with non-football 'commitments' (wives/girlfriends, children, jobs, etc) can play.

The Prophet Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 OK I want to confirm but exams start the 18th of May and I might need time for some last minute panic revising should I have one on the Monday so I'm going to have to delay confiriming I'm afraid.
