My works team are mid table, only 5 a side, i am goal keeper, i have no ability on pitch. With a bit of clever thinking could we keep them down to a goal every minute? 90-0 Every two minutes? 45-0 Take time getting the ball back after every goal? Perhaps really hold it up when you get posession. Maybe a bit of proper dirty play.

Lets give us the best chance. We are playing at wembley. In january, and the entire crowd is guaranteed hundred quid if we beat the spread. Players are given a milliion quid bonus for beating the spread. What is the spread?
|
|
By:
Assuming the lads are of school team standard they should be able to keep it down to 30. Spread 28-32.

I once played against a 4th tier footballer and marked him out of the game.

Mind you, he was only 11 at the time, and I was 2 years older.

I used to play five a side every week with someone who used to get paid £90/game. Basically he was at the very lowest end of the semi professional end of the game. He might as well as been pele compared to me, could just dance rings round me. Luckily we normally played on the same side and he was very modest and normally went for the pass than score himself. If he went for it himself he had a turn of pace like a whippet, with the ball stuck to his feet and a shot like a traction engine. Best player i ever played with.

I loved 5 a side. Great game but VERY hard work.

Fkin aye. If you aint super fit then you learn quickly that the secret is to conserve your enemy. Cant last going 100pc for more than 10 minutes.

I once played for a five-a-side teama nd we started off magnificently, beating a few teams, we actually got compared to brazil until...i organised a game against my friend's dss work's team on an all-weather pitch...we we doing really well, drawing 1-1 for a decent amount of time but their superior fitness and fact that theyd played a lot together told in the end ..we lost 11-1.
Sadly, my team mates lost heart and we never played again, either! |

By:
30 years ago me and 10 of my mates would have bet a lot of money that we could keep the scoreline down to 1-0.
Once they scored, we'd have physically attacked them, and got 11 red cards. Match over. Bet won. |
