firtESES Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 will it be a 11-a-side or less? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nips Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 We are planning on 11-a-side assuming we have enough players and it looks like we should have enough so yeah, it should be 11's.  We are playing on the pitches next to FC Luzern's stadium and the weather will determine if we play on grass or 3G (if it's wet we'll be on 3G, if it's dry we'll be on grass.  To save me taking a set of strips, can I ask all players to wear a blue Saints top as well as shorts and socks (doesn't matter what colour, but preferably blue or white).  If possible, meet at pitches for 6:15pm or if your travel arrangements won't allow that get there when you can! It will be roll-on, roll-off subs so even if you're running late you'll still get a game.

nips Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Firat - let me know if you need a Saints top and I'll bring a spare one with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al C Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hopefully will be able to get there for kick off anyway. Do away goals count? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nips Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Hopefully will be able to get there for kick off anyway. Do away goals count? _______________________________________  Yes, but not double. As it is before Worldnet they will count towards this season's total.

andrew Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 My son David wants to play. He's very modest. Says, 'Im a winger, striker, cm or full back. I dont mind the idea of cb either. I know where the goal is tho, and have 2 strong feet. LAUGH OUT LOUD, looks like i'll be bringing boots along with me. Tell them i played 1st team uni football last year.' Think he should be a trialist for Saints, never mind PSJ! He's good at heading cos he has a big heid nips 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spew Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I need to work the Wednesday during the day so won't make the PSJ game. Allowed Thursday and Friday off so just need to find suitable flights. Anybody got a spare bed/floor space? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelly78 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Good luck, lads. I'll see you in Zone 5 after the match for a few beers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCantBeatThat.com Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 How many of your lot are reckoned to be coming to this game?  We have everything organised at this end for the match and negotiations are ongoing to provide beer sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 I doubt many non playing folk will want to leave the pub to watch us but you never know!  There should be around 800 Saints fans in Lucerne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nips Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 We have a squad of 16-20 wanting to play and I imagine there will be a few guys coming along to watch but I've no idea how many. Â Beer sales would go down well I'm sure - it would probably encourage a few more to come and watch but we won't publicise it if you're worried about too many people?

The Zone 5 guys should be able to organise a few cool boxes of beers to sell. We have organised a ref too. Are you happy with doing subs every ten mins or so so that everyone who wants to play can get on the pitch? 2x 45 mins?  Edited July 14, 2014 by JustCantBeatThat.com nips 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nips Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Yeah, that's all fine Michael. Â We use roll on, roll off subs all the time and although it probably won't be every 10 minutes it will still be fairly regular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
