5-a-side SW London? - Help
at 22:19 19 Mar 2023

Hi all, bit of a random one, apologies for clogging up the feed!

I'm relatively new to the SW London area and have finally decided to try and start playing 5-a-side again. I don't know too many people around (and surprisingly it's not something that anyone at work does), and so was just wondering if there were any town fans, in any nearby leagues/casual games that are looking for players? Ideally a low-ish standard, that can accommodate someone in their late twenties who's more unfit than they'd like to admit, and not the most gifted of players!

Figured asking this community would be a great place to start as would also be great to be able to connect with more fans (am used to being the only one until I get to PR on a Saturday!).


Cheers!

Lift share for Saturday?
at 15:07 29 Sep 2022

Sorry if I've missed other threads on this!

I was just wondering if there was anyone who happened to be driving to Saturdays game from London, with available space that might be open to lift sharing? Will of course gladly pay for fuel etc.

As someone that usually travels by train, I'm in a bit of a pickle for the game! Would usually be happy (well, reluctantly) to get the replacement bus, but the last train/bus back is before the game has finished as far as I can see.

Thanks in advance!

Skuse/Hyam > Morsy/Evans
at 21:41 7 Dec 2021

The days of Skuse and Hyam were dark, but at least they made tackles and won their battles. Morsy and Evans have bottled every 50/50 and passed backwards at every opportunity.

Regardless of manager, tactics, situation and how bad most of the players were tonight, those two were the biggest problem tonight and highlighted the key issue we've had all season. Everything is too slow, too laboured and always someone else's fault.

I was surprised Cook went, and generally am still optimistic about our squad and what we should be able to do, but whoever comes in has a bigger job than I thought based on tonight. We need an identity and some tempo sharpish!

The way to win back the fans and start winning games
at 22:41 31 Jan 2017

For me, the squad we have is good enough to be a force in this division, but unfortunately we defend first and that stifles us.

Ignoring the long term absentees, for me, the team should pick itself:

433

Bart
Emmanuel
Chambers
Berra
Kenlock
Skuse (holding, dropping deep when attacking to allow the full backs to roam)
Bishop
Dozzell
Ward
Lawrence
McGoldrick

Put the ball on the deck, let the front 5 play with freedom, support them with extra width from the full backs, and make teams worry about us for a change

Berbatov is apparently in and around London looking for a club. He's 36, but if we could afford him, would you have him?

Just handed in a transfer request following bids from championship clubs at the weekend. What are the odds one is us after his performance against us!

If McCarthy does go...
at 08:43 22 Jan 2017

I'm genuinely interested to know what everyone thinks a new manager would do with our youngsters coming through?

One thing it feels like may be happening (albeit slower than we'd like) is that the younger players are featuring more, and I just worry, would someone new come in and not fancy the likes of Emmanuel, Kenlock, Dozzell, Bishop? Generally managers want their own players...

Just interested to know what others think?

What I learned tonight and why I don't blame MM
at 22:18 17 Jan 2017

1. We can't play that system without Webster. Berra and Digby panic too much
2. Leon Best should never play for us again. He was off the pace, uninterested, and thought he was too good to be there. The amount of times he just tried to turn Lincoln players and lost it was ridiculous
3. Knudsen has to be 2nd choice to Kenlock. I've given him the benefit of the doubt before, but he offers nothing going forward and his positioning means he offers very little defensively
4. Grand Ward is not a centre midfielder
5. Douglas shouldn't be the scapegoat. He didn't do anything particularly well, but offered more than most

Mick said he would mick and strong team, and I think he did. That team should have had enough to win that game. Those players have played championship games this season, and frankly let themselves down.

Jenas said we had no plan, but I think we did. I think mick wanted us to play possession based and make Lincoln work. The players were incapable of that. They just aimlessly punted it upfield and it came back.

I still believe Mick will turn it around, and would be exactly the type of manager who relishes these scenarios. Bring in a few players, establish emmanuel, kenlock and dozzell, and we'll have something to work with.

That being said. Tonight was still embarrassing, and I hope the team know that they let us all down
