Startlingly they missed out 'don't sit on it, you'll egg it!' and 'no mooching/no blasties'

 

Our Wallsend Boys Club team was called No Blasties like, on account of playing football with me dad in goal and him always saying it.  He was the "manager".

Remember fog sec lag for first, second, last? What the fuck was that about?

 

Honestly though, there were so many days I just didn't go for my dinner because I was playing football.

The nostalgia in this thread :lol:

 

I'd completely forgotten the "play on" rule when you were keeper and couldn't be fucked to go after the ball. You'd always end up with a pair of scrotes miles away trying to meg each other.

Used to use bottle caps in Primary school cause we weren't allowed a ball in the playground and bottles were deemed dangerous. One of the dinner ladies would bring in milk bottle caps for us, aka the ultimate cap. Power and swerve you could get on those things was ludicrous.

We had to use sponge footballs in the playground at primary school.

 

Class on wet days when they used to be full of water, having taken up a bit of dirt, grit and the odd small stone and you took it square in the dial. Also got to the point where it'd disintegrate into something barely even spherical but would still get kicked about.

At middle school we had to use a tennis ball on the yard.

 

Worst was always when you'd be playing on the yard in the summer because you weren't allowed on the field but they had the tennis nets up.

In Primary school you couldn't use a football in the top playground (small). We used to donate a sock each and roll them into a ball. I tell my wife that and she thinks we must have been living in some sort of slum (or that I'm making it up).
