ShakehandsTom - DFC Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I enjoyed that last night (as I do most weeks), and despite the un-even start to the game, it seemed to get more even as it went on. David W had some horrendous moments defensively, none more so epically shown as his error for the opening goal 0.004 seconds in. Mind you, what do you expect after he was watching the shambolic Anfield mob in the pub immediately before we started playing. I think Adam Wee was good tonight, with some decent ball control and dribbling. Also, Kev was good too, with improvement visible from even a few months back. Despite not scoring many (if any ) goals, I was just as happy with my slide tackle on Greg. It was a ludicrous challenge to make, yet (strangely) it was controlled and not dangerous. (Doesn't sound like one of my tackles lol) I knew I wouldn't make the ball if I ran due to a chronic lack of pace, but knew if I slid in I could get there. So from about 8 yards away, the slide was put into motion and I got contact on the ball, preventing a pass/shot from Greg. Despite there being little necessity to make the tackle in that manner, I enjoyed it (I love a slide tackle), and glad I got the ball. Looking forward to next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM. Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Likewise. Except Cardiff is replaced by a place just as good, the wonderful Brechin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 If you want a game of 7's then Toryglen might be an idea. Shouldn't be more than what you pay for fives, travel could be an issue though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would probably need to get another local train. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Train from Central to Mount Florida or King's Park with a 10 min walk. Trains through the Cathcart Circle are pretty frequent AFAIK 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies_Apprentice Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 They have sevens pitches at crownpoint down the Gallowgate, but its shitey old style sand astro and in a dive of an area, which obviously people without a car wouldn't fancy treking to or from later at night. The only other place I know is goals at Drumchapel, and even then its well away from the town and only the pitches are sevens standards, the goals are five a-side size. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam_Wee Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 powerleague is absolutely fine Yeah, just because we have had ten players listed a couple of days before Monday for the past couple of weeks doesn't mean we would be able to get 14 every week, especially if it's in a difficult area to get to. I'm in for next Monday, looking forward to it already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudge Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You should all come to Costa Del Stenny for a game of 6's and a real 3G experience 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave258 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 There more seasoned veterans of GA 5s should be well aware that we've played 6s a few times at Powerleague quite comfortably. We also managed 7s once on one of the big pitches at the top of the hill (think it was 6v7 actually). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Kevin Of Kilsyth Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 You should all come to Costa Del Stenny for a game of 6's and a real 3G experience The goals in that place are fuckin massive. I doubt my heroics this week could ever be repeated on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudge Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 The goals in that place are fuckin massive. I doubt my heroics this week could ever be repeated on them. They're just bog standard 7 a side goals! Man up! I much prefer playing 6's or 7's on a 7 a side pitch than playing 5's on a 5's pitch but for it to work you need to actually have a reasonably rigid team with a formation etc, which isn't exactly feasible with 12/14 loons who have the combined ability of Paul McShane. I think the powerleague parks are too crowded with 5 on them, I'd hate to see it with 6! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Supoose this may be a bit off topic but.. The other night (could have even been monday), someone caught their leg in one of the advertising board, ripping their leg open, hospital followed obviously. Heafty insurance claim has to follow surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
