James,

I suppose it may be a little too late to ask for any small alterations???:rolleyes:

Could you please refer to games 33 and 34 -
The complication is when the Central Youth A team qualifys 1st in the YM/Vet Pool B, we are required to play 1st Pool A 'vs' 1st Pool B (game 33) then straight after that we have to 'beat' Central Mens (game 34)

I suppose after the trainings we have had it is not surprising you will try anything but did you really think we would let this one slide?!?!:p
But if thats the way it has to be James, I think we can just suck it up and get on with it.

Cheers,
Squirt.

Its a bugger when you're entered in too many grades!! You could look at deliberately dropping a game and coming second in pool B?? I'd suggest the game against Mainland vets but we're in the other pool..... :p

[Jase]

i think you should just suck it up and get on with it, somebody needs to be the whipping boy;) . i don't mind sean's suggestion either you could drop game 34 we would not hold that against you....for that many years

:D

Just leave it as is, it will give Robin something legitimate to complain about.

[Squirt]

Too many grades?!?! We only just warming up.
Whats all this talk about "dropping" a game?
Do you mean lose purposefully?
Or just not turn up?
How is this done exactly?:confused:
We have too much pride and too much need to whip some A##!
There wont be any complaining coming from this Whipping Boy, seeing as I will be the boy doing all the whipping:thumbup:
See you on the flip side!!!

I recall a game last inter-regionals where Fragile (Tom Neilson), Nana (Ben Leith) and myself had made a break and the only player left to beat was poor little Squirt. It was while watching the ball floating above his head that Squirt realized the complete hopelessness of his situation and gave up attempting to stop what was the most certain of outcomes. I look forward to seeing that look upon your face many times during this weekend Squirt.

Muahaha!

I recall a game in these 2005 Inter-Regionals where Fragile (Tom Neilson) and yourself (Jimmy) also made a break with only one poor little player to beat. But unfortunately for Tom and Jimmy the poor little Squirt (with the shortest paddle and most complete lack of goalie potential) never actually made that so called "look of hopelessness upon his face".
The outcome this time being that Tom fired one straight past but only to nail the cross bar. Then the ball flys away to land straight into the lap of Jimmy who then also tried his luck against 'poor lil Squirty', but the look of hopelessness flooded accross Jimmy as his shot was fired directly back to the 6m by Squirty's little piddle paddle which stood high and strong with an over joyed little kid hanging onto the bottom.
:cool:
