Chaps Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I'm up for a game this week or next. As someone said earlier in the thread we should maybe get a group chat going so it's easier to arrange games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blairdin Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Suggestion fellas. Have a look into signing up to play in the Edinburgh Futsal league on a Wednesday night at Orium Heriot Watt. Twitter is @SFL_Edinburgh. A version of indoor 5s that is closer to 11 aside. Fantastic game to play,a good workout. There is rolling subs and you need them. If you have around 10-12 in your squad you know you'll still be able to have a game on the weeks there's only say 8 of you. ?95 league entry and then ?35 per match.

The issue with that is it's a league. Which means you're going to end up playing folk who take it a lot more seriously than we probably would. I don't know about anyone else but all I'm looking for is a way to improve my fitness whilst having a laugh. Getting pumped by a bunch of guys who treat a kick-about like the World Cup Final would probably take that fun element out for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A whatsapp group might easier since PM chat here only allows 5. Folk can PM me their mobile numbers and I can set up a group? If you don't have whatsapp then still PM me and we can figure something.

Simo Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 I mentioned earlier in the thread that I would be up for it but never added my name to the list since I've just had my ACL operated on last month so realistically couldn't play for at least 6-9 months. Obviously doesn't help anyone in the short term but if you can get a regular game going then I'd be happy enough to go on a "backup" list if people can't make it in the future or whatever. Plus I won't have played in well over a year then so I'll make everyone else look good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure? It uses end-to-end encyrption and is probably one of the most secure messaging services you can use. David Cameron complained about it a few years back for this reason.

Norm Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 The thigh chaffing is real right now. Promised I'd take the kids to the zoo the morn. Those hills. I think my legs stiffened up before I even got to the bus home. They're aching now after a bath and I'm terrified of what it's going to feel like tomorrow. With a bit of luck, the pain will be gone by next week when I can punish myself all over again. On the bright side, I didn't spew my ring. Genuinely thought I was going to a couple of times.

Getintaethem Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 HAHA! Well done you guys for getting this up and running, I play every Tuesday at Sighthill so will look out for the pitch where all the cardiac arrests are happening. Fives is a great way to get some exercise, we've been playing at the pitz since it opened (over 15 years ago I think) and still get 10 players every week. Word of warning though, it never gets any easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
