Default ooh I think I've upset someone.....

....we play footy on a Monday night, its a good laugh but a total shambles the way it's run, some emails went round and I mentioned that this lot 'couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery', anyway we forwarded our email to him as we had some points to get across and mine was stuck int he middle, he must have read them all.....

'Hi xxx. We will make the changes. Please use the message board on the league page for posting scoring errors. Our admin is in charge of updating scores and occassionally we as humans make errors.


Spugsy - as for running a piss up a brewery. I appreciate your kind words. Considering we started this online concept 1 year ago with 10 people playing ultimate frisbee I guess we are numbnuts. If you have ever started a business on your own please let me know and I can advise you on the perils of entrepreneurship. I'm sure my parents would be happy to know that the 7 yrs of post secondary education doesn't qualify me to "run a piss up a brewery". As for our referee, he has an official registration from the indian national sports federation and has been refereeing for 20 yrs. How many years have you reffed? I guess getting pissed at a bar and watching and playing football games on the tele qualifies right? Even though he is indian and that may not represent the pinnacle of football, maybe if you get a chance to visit india you will see we have some solid football in the land of curry and cricket.


Don't appreciate your comments but I guess everyone has a right to their own opinion. Perhaps we can have a discussion on business and event organization at your next game- or maybe you can challenge me on an iq test (since you challenge my intelligence) and we can make it a duplays event?

Thats class!
Maybe if he spent less time writing notes like that and more time organising his 'piss up' it would be better.
I would love to be a fly on the wall for your next game.
