OT not cars but football
« on: August 09, 2006, 09:35:20 am »
I know its not car racing, but what with the new football season round the corner and me sorting out this years fantasy league side, I was wondering if anyone here plays www.fantasyleague.com ,  and if so and they aren't already in their own league would they fancy joining in with mine? Or if not do they fancy it? Tenner for the year, and you get to be beaten and ridiculed for it by me, what more could you want.

We are a bit depleted in numbers this year, people moving houses and jobs etc.

As i say, its pretend pig skin kicking, not motor racing in any form, not even pretend racing like F1. So i will surely get booted off for spamming but the offer is there. let me know and i will PM our league PIN number.

Wouldn't be spam if it was RUGBY

Union that is. not that namby pamby northern stuff
There is a corner of a foreign field that will be forever England ------ Houx Annexe

Bob I suspect you are waiting for namby pamby northerner to bite. well her I am after having played both codes, I can assure you that league is far from namby pamby (in fact it F**king well hurts). maybe we can arrange a game at Donnington 60 mins, 30 mins each code ;)

I think this topic  has been mentioned before and was on the agenda to be dicussed at the Poo Bar, but there must have been some alcohol involved cos we   obviously both forgot about it.

I am getting too old  for a game but I'm sure we can discuss and agree/disagree with each other over a few beers.

Which campsite are you using?

As an afterthought I must also mention that I am definately to old now, but I did enjoy playing both, main reason being, that as a prop I got my hands on the ball a lot more often at league.

Bob

Do you remember when the namby pamby Wigan boys won the Middlesex sevens? (which incidentally are on this weekend).

I've only ever played Union but love watching League. I think if watch the modern game you'll see it's far removed from the grim, muddy, oop-n-under days of Eddie Wareing. It is, in short, a terrific spectator sport.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.

I remember that... and they were mighty impressive too.. and then there was the influx of the players to union on the back of it.. so league then had to start 'glamorising' to keep the best players ;)

Yes I agree the glamourising was totally ridiculous. I mean, the Keighley Cougars? What the f**k is that all about? I'll bet a cougar has never ever set foot in bloody Keighley. They might as well be called the Keighley Condoms for all the relevance the name has to the continent they play in, let alone the country or local area they hail from. It's the same level of glamour (and intelligence) as people from the UK who dress up as cowboys and go away on wild west weekends at a caravan site in Bognor Regis in November.
