Rematch 25/1/04

[* ORM *]

We should all know the time - KO 10.30 and the place - Southend High School for boys.

I don't want to dampen people's expectations but we have to seriously consider whether this game is likely to be given the green light by the School PE Staff/Groundsman. Of course I hope it is but we have to be realistic here.

If we get the go ahead I think we all know we can beat the opposition. We cannot be complacent and we have a 1 game unbeaten run to protect as well as being totally undefeated in the whole of 2004 so far.

As before I'd expect people to be there by 9.45am. - We'll also be doing a Southend Central pick up at 9.30 am. Please indicate availability for selection. I'll assume everyone is making their own arrangements to get there unless they state Southend Central in their reply.

Please confirm availability and KEEP ANY COMMENTS NOT RELATING TO THIS AWAY FROM THIS THREAD

Transgressions of this are likely to incur club fines http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I will be there this time, and hopefully feeling better than I did today. A week of the booze should cure that.

Good plan Snowy. You make sure you stay on it.

I shall be there, assuming I don't have another vomiting fit the night before.

[MrB]

I shall be there

Dave

[Bob Cratchitt]

I will be there but cannot play due to a cracked rib, but as everyone knows that due to A) I have posted it on this board a few times before and B) I told everyone at training yesterday - oh yeah you werent there. http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif I did not feel the need to carp on about it again.

[Leeboy]

yup.

direct.

You know my answer http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif I'll be there.

[steveh1510]

I'll be there to watch, with boots in case I'm needed.

Also the club fines are racking up nicely - oops there goes another one !

[Vange Shrimper]

I'll be there, but i'll be getting a lift so there's no need to pick me up on Sunday, Orm! http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[hockleyshrimper]

ill be there. Just to let you know we beat a bunch of marsh rats somewhere between 6-2 and 8-2 on Sunday. We lost count of the goals.

So 7-2 then?...

[Shagster69]

I'll be there, going direct.

[Shagster69]

So we currently have 11 plus the 2 new ones. Wheres the rest of us then? Still no reply from some i.e. Alexis, Shrek, Barry Harris, Axeman etc, Who is Benjy playing for (if at all)?

[Leeboy]

Axeman is injured, so he'll be a no.

[* ORM *]

As everybody who has played for us knows whilst we are in the transition period everybody always gets a decent runout, so hopefully Steve + Durera will both reply in the affirmative.

We still need answers from a few others as well e.g. Alexis, Shrek, Bazza.

Unc and I are already working on team selection and tactics http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Remember we need to be serious about this game. We have a point to prove and we know we're good enough if we play to our strengths. Naturally Snowy will be leading by example and has planned a relatively quiet Saturday night http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

and Andee ( Bob Cratchitt ) is injured as well

Benjy91 is watching from the touchline and not playing for anybody....

[MrB]

Quote[/b] (Leeboy @ Jan. 20 2004,14:58)]Axeman is injured, so he'll be a no.
He reckoned he'd be ok on Saturday.

Idiot here managed to fall down a single step walking to the station last night (sober), totally stacking it like a tw*t in front of loads of people and turning my oh so delicate ankle. Am stumbling about today but still hope to be ok for Sunday.

Patsy will be turning up in a spectatorial capacity but will have his stuff in case he's needed.

[The General]

Your all a bunch of Napsters ...

[east stand drummer boy]

I will come to watch and cheer you all on!!!

[dave]

Ive injured my little toe on my left foot. My toenail was kinda starting to ingrow, so i yanked it out (not all of it, just a dead end), and it hurts to walk a bit. But hey, its only me left foot, so dont really matter!!
Will be better by Sunday.

Dave

[McScriven]

Blimey me what a bunch of poofs you lot are. Napster told me yesterday that he went back to the hospital and they have diagnosed him in a interior crutiate ligament tear.

Only a minor one it's barely torn (unlike me 100% tear comeon!!!) so with some physio work he should be back soon which I'm sure you are all really pleased about!!

http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif

[Leeboy]

He won't get back in the team mate http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

[Snowy]

Oh my god how many people are we going to have for Sunday, is everyone going to be injured. What happens if Kev has a bad hair day, and Carter forgets his warpaint?

[Leeboy]

or you get w***ered Saturday night http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif

[* ORM *]

Fear not - we should have at least 13 players on Sunday - but possibly as many as 15.

The only bad news is that I'm probably starting the game http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Oh and of course we're all 'distraught' to hear the news about Napper who at one stage jointly held our top scorer and goal of the season award (just before we scored our second ever goal in fact) http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif

Just to let you know I've also PMd Chadded this morning to find out who/when/where/how makes the decision about whether the game goes ahead.

There is no truth in the rumour that Leeboy won't tell Scrivs anyway so that he doesn't get a lay-in.
