OFFSIDE! IT WAS OFFSIDE!!! DiS Football
Apologies for :
1) Being totally shit
2) Screaming about the offside when it didnt even matter. I had a point - when Bamos initially shot, it hit Hedges in the shoulder when he was standing in an offside position. However according to Sean it hit him first so it was irrelevant anyway. I didn't see this. Apologies for shouting.
In mitigation, I had been up all night drinking - slept from about 9:30am to 11:30am on a rug on a wooden floor that was soaked with Strongbow.
Those teams were ridiculous though, I thought we did amazingly well in the first half to still be in contention. Pretty much player for player they were better than us. Got absolutely raped in the second half, it stopped being fun about 55 minutes in. Arthur - you've done a sterling job organising these games, but I think this was one re-sorting of the teams too far.
Maybe have a radical overhaul of the team selection process for the next game? Get a list of everyone playing, then do a private draft session (to avoid potential embarrassment of being picked last), where two designated players choose a player each one after the other? I'd be up for being one of these people!
Whens the game? I can't do September 5th/6th so if we could make it the weekend after that would be great!
