when you forgot your kit did you ever have to wear stuff from a bin full of old mud encrusted shorts and tight white tee shirts with holes and spunk on them? ours was called the Steg Bin. many a game of football i played at school with one size six gola boot and one size 7 plastic hi tec boot with moulded studs, running shorts with a perished underpant lining and skids in them and an XL large Tranmere shirt on. happy days
yep nowt like wearing the smallest pair of shorts ever playing rugby on cawley fields on a cold january morning with the wind and rain piling in
I bet you didn't forget your kit a second time though eh? That's the trouble with kids today, no incentive to improve and develop. Everything's given to them on a plate.
I was given the slipper Then, nursing a sore arse I would have to sit with all the other lepers and social dropouts who had come with some lame excuse - and watch all the scummy little pet proteges either doing olympicly hopeful somersaults or scoring world cup defeating goals.</p> B @ stards!</p>
"Everything's given to them on a plate". Not true. I saw my Sister give my Neice her school lunch yesterday - and it was clearly in a tupperware box, not a plate. Two brothers at our school never had any kit - so they were made to play footy in pants & vest. Cream y-fronts with brown lining. That's the stuff character is made of.
"tee shirts with holes and spunk on them" Blimey!! Where did you go to school?? Sounds like Addio's laundry bag.
At Kingstone, last year, Laura got a warning for forgeting her dance kit - she thought it was week one not two (they have a 2 week lesson plan) and was told that if she forgot it once more during the year she would get a detention. She wasn't the only one, half of the class forgot theirs.
RE: "tee shirts with holes and spunk on them" I'll have you know at BBTGS we always had our named and numbered kit hung up on coat hangers in batting order prior to every games lesson. If anyone had forgotten any kit the games master (Mr. Harris) would delight in searching through boxes of new 'Powerpoints' or Addidas 'Roms' until he found your correct size and shoe lace colour preference. The post game massage (by Miss Susie Wong) was not obligatory either but if you didn't have one then Mr. Harris would beat the living **** out of you with a sawn off Dennis Compton autographed triple springer. It wo tuff.
RE: "tee shirts with holes and spunk on them" All we got was Clarie Mason helping us to "tuck our shirts into our shorts".
RE: wernt it pants and vest ?? When we forgot our kit, we were made to wear knights armour! Very difficult playing football in it, I think you'll agree!!!
My mate forgot his kit once The only thing that he could find in 'the bin' to fit him was a leotard (navy blue with reinforced gusset) and a pair of the old black pumps with half a tractor tyre around the front.</p> This was in November and we were on cross country day!</p> Needless to say, he never forgot his kit again.</p>
RE: wernt it pants and vest ?? Same here, no options, just do PE in your under crackers you were wearing that day and (If you were lucky) a sports bib. Wonderfull!!!!
RE: "Everything's given to them on a plate". hehe. didn't you have to wear the Caspers nearly every week, it was either them or padder bat off copper nob...
