Guest Open_C Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I think for us, rush keeper was where the keeper could come out and play but was still the only person who could use his hands. Fly-and-rush was where anyone could be the keeper. This is how it worked between Amble and Ashington in my experience, although the latter was just simply Fly Keeper I later came to realise that Rush Keeper was actually just regular football Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Fog man back, was the first back, rush goalie the keeper could come outfield This is correct. All other opinions are wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 On a related note, how much better would life be if two goalkeepers would turn up every time you played football? Amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Mundial ran a poll to see what people used to call it when anyone was allowed to be in goal. Rush keeper for me It was 'Goalie When' when anyone could save it surely ? Rush keeper was when the keeper could come out of goal and join in farther up the pitch, i always thought Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Open_C Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I think most people agree on Rush Keeper (which is of course just football, depending on how buccaneering the keeper is feeling). It's the Anyone Can Be Keeper variant that's always had different names. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I do miss Wembley Doubles. I miss rebounds, we had a great wall in the garages next to our house to play that on, and it had a wicket sprayed on for cricket Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superior Acuña Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Fog man back, was the first back, rush goalie the keeper could come outfield Aye, same. Is 'fog man back' just geordie/north eastern? We just called it singles or doubles - not Wembley - when you're playing solo with one keeper. And SPOT when you took turns to try and hit the wall - you won if you were first to do it four times (spelling S P O T - and sometimes we'd add a ! to keep it going) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Never understood the concept of rush keeper. Keepers can do that if they want anyway. In most formal small sided games the 'keeper can't leave the area. That's the difference really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginola Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Now I think about it I think ours was similar. Rush= a certain outfield player was the only one allowed to be keeper Fly= anyone could be keeper Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Never understood the concept of rush keeper. Keepers can do that if they want anyway.

In most formal small sided games the 'keeper can't leave the area. That's the difference really. Yeah that makes sense. Just people used to say it on the playground/park etc, as if it meant anything. I feel like it must stem from some inane child logic based on the fact back at school no one ever really wanted to be in goal. I was the antithesis of that. I'd only play if it was 'stick' 'keepers. Shame I never got the growth spurt my love for goalkeeping deserved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
