New Liverpool Strip Out

A horrible dull grey and red strip from Liverpool... eugh! This could be one for DEANO!

Kuyt trying to look hard and failing. Do Liverpool have any photogenic players? Soon every club will employ a beckham-style player just for his advertising skills.



Also, Spain for the win! I reckon Torres will get some goals in the final. Hopefully beating the Germans about 5-0.

Early Retirement for 'Homebase'

The time has finally come for me to hang my boots up for good.

I would have loved to have finished playing on a high, rather than leaving the pitch and hopping into an ambulance, but this is the way of things in sunday league football I suppose. I am still having issues with my knee now and I can't see myself ever having the same determination on the pitch. Knowing that the cruciate tear could rip entirely at any moment is very unsettling, given the pain it caused me.
I've been playing football for the last twenty years as an amateur sunday league player, so I've had my share of Promotions, Relegations, League and Cup Match defeats and Victories, Cup Finals, Trophies and Medals, Injuries, Goals! But not a single booking or sending off.
I've got a few things to hand over to the team, one of them being the Captain's Armband. I'm sure that Milesy will make the right choice when he picks the next Captain.

There is training this Sunday (22nd June) at Blackshots at 10.30 am.

Seatwave have tickets for all of the Euro 2008 matches, if you did still want to see a game. Could be a nice relaxing break without England in it :(
