Flip Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 http://www.nufcblog.com/2015/01/24/if-magpies-safe-second-half-of-season-doesnt-matter/ Maybe Newcastle fans shouldn’t hope too much that we have a good first half of the season as we did last season, because then we will likely sell our best player in January, and because we are presumably safe – it really doesn’t matter if we have a bad run – or even a terrible run in the second half of the season – last season we lost seven of the last eight league games – including six in a row – but who cared – we were safe. Doesn't he know there's a worldwide shortage of dashes at the moment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Nostalgia overload. http://www.buzzfeed.com/robinedds/whoever-kicks-it-gets-it?utm_term=.ydZ8RX02Y7#.pp86d359Ad Stumbled across the Playground Football page on Uncyclopedia a couple of months ago at work. Ended up spending around five hours on the site. http://mirror.uncyc.org/wiki/Playground_Football "get ya yards, man!" Classic memories. Rain sodden on its last legs ball - This patchless rain sodden mouldy black coloured ball is what playground football is all about. The keeper gets stinking hands when he saves it, anyone trying to control a high ball normally gets sliced open by stray bits of leather that are hanging off. In its very final days, the inner pigs bladder starts popping out causing random bounces and some top class goalkeeping howlers. :lol: yes yes fucking yes.

Village Idiot Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 I always voluntereed to go in goal in what the article calls Wembleys (we called them Taqui-Gol in Spain, I still don't know why) Our rule against goalhanging was that you had to run out of the box if you stole the ball or caught a rebound - otherwise if you scored it wouldn't count. Clean and simple. Penner or goal?/Penalty or goal? - THE most arrogant rule in playground football and a logical trick: the team who scored a contentious (i.e. illegitimate) goal offers the defending team the option of conceding a goal or, ostensibly reasonably, a penalty despite neither being the correct outcome under FIFA's Laws of the Game. A team may play this card whenever a ball goes close to being over the outside of the post (see above). Hated, HATED that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although If someone deflected one of my shots they'd get my goal.

At school we used to play 2nd years v 3rd years and 4th years v 5th years. I don't know what the fuck that equates to in the new style year 8 system we appear to have stole from the yanks, and I care even less. The contentious goal rule was very simple, the older team got the benefit of the doubt. The younger team kept their gob shut for fear of getting their heads kicked in.
