  Victor Valdes

Looks quite solid that Liverpool will be signing 32 year old ex Barcelona keeper Victor Valdes

Whilst the guy is class how different is it in reality to the Pepe Reina situation ?

  Gboly Ariyibi will represent USA U20s
Posted by: spireitematt - 05-09-2014, 01:07 - Forum: Chesterfield - No Replies

Gboly Ariyibi will represent USA U20s for the first time and play against Argentina U20s in Buenos Aires.

I think Gboly could play in the Premier League in a few years, so could Morsy as well.

Rainbow Prediction League Week 4 !!! ... 13/9/14

Your Team ,...... Harry (overall Table scorer) Skad (Division 2 scorer) Luke (Division 1 scorer) Joker (Helping Harry with overall tables & adjudication officer)  Rolleyes
Beefy (Fixture organiser & Holiday score cover)


Scoring System

Bonus Ball =  Smartass  ................ Insurance ball =  Cry   .................. Gamball =  Exclamation

Incorrect Result = - 1 point
Incorrect Result (Insurance Ball) = 0
Incorrect Result (Bonus Ball) = - 2
Incorrect Result (Gamball) = - 4

Correct Result = + 2 points
Correct Result (Bonus Ball) = + 4
Correct Result (Gamball) = + 8
Correct Score = + 4 points
Correct Score (Bonus Ball) = + 8
Correct Score (Gamball) = + 16

* You must use the Gamball on the Game chosen , This game will be marked with ** in front of the chosen game, highlighted Red, and have the smiley  Exclamation   at the end of it to avoid any confusion. You DO NOT have to play the Gamball , Your score will then be marked as normal (Y)
If anybody plays the wrong ball on the Gamball game, this ball will be treated as though you have used it and there for scored as such. Rolleyes

If you do not predict,...........
If in your league everyone scores above zero you will receive Zero points,
However if in your league the person with the lowest score is below Zero (eg -4) you will score -5 and receive your first strike, Remember 3 strikes and you're out. :'(
Unless you talk to us nicely (Well the Joker that is)
The Example that is shown for the minus score will increase by one each time you fail to predict.
Strike 2, -2 below the lowest score , then finally strike 3, -3 below the lowest score unless in your league unless all scores finish above Zero, Then Zero is what you will score ,

All scores must be in before the first game kicks off on Saturday.
If the early kick off is missed the rest of your predictions must reach us by 3pm or NONE will be counted.

** Disclaimer, Myself, Luke, Harry, & the Joker are almost 100% sure we get the scores added up correctly, From time to time over the season we may get now and again get this wrong, SO IN THE EVENT OF ANY POINTS DISCREPANCIES can i ask all you guys to check your predictions and if you feel they are incorrect in anyway contact any of the above 4 people within a week of the TABLES & SCORES being presented and they will be corrected the following week.
Anything later unless it is a Major error will NOT be corrected. It is as much your responsibility to check your scores as much as it is ours to try and score them correctly.

Here we go then  Thumb up the 1st match thread on the new site  Big Grin Let's hope it all works out  Thumb up and all the Owls find us Whistle

I've decided to put the thread up today as it's our birthday  Thumb up  147 and still going strong  Smile and to coincide with the launch of, what we hope will be, a site that New606 should have been Angry

It's going to be short and sweet as it's so early because we can't speculate on the team or owt until we find out if all our International Players have come through unscathed Whistle

THE LAST MATCH

As with the last thread, I missed the last match  Angry that's three in a row  Angry so I can't really comment on what happened. From the reports we were a tad unlucky and deserved at least a point  Confused or a win  Confused or a defeat  Confused


THE MATCH

Sees our old pals from the BBC, JA etc, Noblot Wankerers, on the agenda  Angry

SATDI 13th SEPT - KO 15:00 BST

on the back of some pretty shite form n'all  Big Grin I suppose they are rediscovering their level after a period at the top table on the back of a Sugar Daddy who appears to have run out of Tate & Lyle  Big Grin

Again, short and sweet but the main objective is to get this site moving  Thumb up .......... but I'll be pissed off if we don't come away with 3pts Angry


CURRENT FORM

For what it's worth after an International Break  Angry

Us -  Big GrinUndecidedUndecidedBig GrinBig GrinAngry

Their only  Big Grin's were against Crewe and Bury in the pisspot cup Rolleyes though  Big Grin

  England v India - the 5th ODI
Posted by: Lord Snooty - 04-09-2014, 23:31 - Forum: Cricket - Replies (3)

England v India
The 5th ODI Match
Friday 5th September
at Headingley
starting at 10:30




[Image: 20031030_34670657.jpg]




And so to the much anticipated series decider in front of a packed house at Headingley.........well......hmmm!
The packed house bit is right. Most of the tickets have been sold as Yorkshire CCC seek desperately to hold on to their test match status. Thankfully advance sales have been good, otherwise this could really have been a massive damp squib.
The home crowd therefore will be looking to cheer on two of their own as Joe Root and Gary Ballance play on their home ground. Both will definitely play as Ian Bell is out with a broken toe.
Even though this is a dead rubber, the Indians are expected to field their strongest, unchanged XI.


England squad: Alastair Cook ©, Moeen Ali, James Anderson, Gary Ballance, Jos Buttler (w), Steven Finn, Harry Gurney, Alex Hales, Chris Jordan, Eoin Morgan, Joe Root, Ben Stokes, James Tredwell, Chris Woakes.

India squad: Mahendra Dhoni (c & w), Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Stuart Binny, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Mohit Sharma, Ambati Rayudu, Umesh Yadav, Dhawal Kulkarni, Sanju Samson (w), Karn Sharma, Murali Vijay.

  Missing Players
Posted by: Stairs - 04-09-2014, 20:50 - Forum: Jumpers for goal posts - Replies (1)

I was a reasonable player. A striker. I played for Juniors, Seniors, Clubs, Scouts and a few local clubs and could score with regularity.

Playing as a teenager for a local team one of our fixtures was against a borstal. Normally both the 'Home' and 'Away' fixture were played at their ground, for obvious reasons. But one year, they were allowed to visit us, in the country.

Our pitch was set outside a village. You changed in the village hall and then walked to the ground just outside the village. Normally the opposition changed in the same place and walked up with us. But the 'Borstal Boys' came ready dressed for football and piled out of a minibus at the ground.

The game was good. We won. I scored a few, but I do recall their captain encouraging them while it was still close by shouting 'come on lads, if we win it's baked beans for tea'. But the reason for remembering the match so well was, at full-time when the lads piled into the minibus they were two players short.

When we looked around to find them, we spotted them. They had crossed a corn field and were breaking through a hedge and scarpering. Not sure when they were recovered or even if they ever were.
