Although we are in the middle of our Market Road mini-league adventure, we will revert to tradition and play a Reds v Blues game at our spiritual home, Whittington Park. And I may be repeating the refereeing experiment, or I may return as a player. Don't know which option is worse.
Not much to report on further international friendly matches, probably try and pencil something in for September time, once everyone is back from holiday. Sheffield? Glasgow?
The usual blurb:
- we play on a full-sized astro-turf pitch
- there are changing rooms and toilet facilities
- 5 min walk from Archway tube station (Northern line)
- 1 min walk from Upper Holloway train station (Barking - Gospel Oak line)
- Buses 17, 43, 263 and 271 all stop at Upper Holloway train station
- arrive at 3:30 PM for warm-up, tactics discussion, pre-match fags, team pictures, etc.
- kick-off at 4 PM sharp
- full 2 x 45 minutes and injury time + 15 min break
- one team will play in red shirts, the other in blue
- everyone can participate, the skills on display are wide-ranging
- final teams will be announced in the week leading up to the game
- 5 pounds each will be collected on the day
- post-match analysis in the Landseer pub on Landseer Road (5 mins walk away)
Come on, you know you want to. Put your name down by replying below.
