Who wants to learn Football? ©

Comrade_: I'll teach you the rules and understanding the game.
Show by a raise of hands.

(Open discussions)

err_HELLO: can i be the goal keeper

err_HELLO: ive only got little hands tho....is that ok?

err_HELLO: and can i wear an helmet lol

Comrade_: no helmet hmm I'll put you down as a midfielder, you might be safer there. No pressure to guard the goal, just pass.

Lεia*̣: I have experience I used to play football in the streets with my cousins but I was always the goal keeper, I think because I suck at football they put me as that

Comrade_:
First Lesson:
The very basics is that within the game there are two teams of eleven players, played over the course of 90 minutes. First half is 45 minutes, then a break, second half is 45 minutes.

Any questions? No? Good.

Comrade_: haahaha yeah those that you're not sure about gets to be the goalie..seems easy when you're playing small-goal football or street football.

Lεia*̣: I don't know, but they either put me as the goal keeper or they would force me to cheerlead !

Comrade_: ahh

what position you prefer to play?

Lεia*̣: The goal keeper of course I thought cheerleading is silly, but I obeyed to get a promotion

Comrade_: haaha everyone wants to be a goalie then.

SugarDreams: Soccer or football?

Comrade_: ey ey there is no soccer or football...there is European-type original Football. haa

SugarDreams: Yeah yeah yeah! lol

err_HELLO: oi Jack !!! My daughter is a goalie n let me tell you she s got her work cut out the rest of the team is that shite!!! She won player of the season last year!!! N the team came almost last!! Goalies are NOT the rubbish ones *kicks Jocks ankles*

err_HELLO: N FROM NOW ON B WILL CALL U JOCK!!!

SugarDreams: Just duct tape him to the goal post darrrrrling..lol and we'll all take a few shots

OCD_OCD: Oh, no, no, no. I have four brothers and a father and a husband and I've gone this long without being drawn into the game. Men bashing each other around over a ball is not something I can get into.

OCD_OCD: Oh, you meant soccer? LOL

<------from the U.S. (obviously)

Comrade_: eyy eyyy I didn't say goalies are rubbish, I meant when it's street football (casual) and no club football and stuff, we tend to give the goalie spot to the person we're unsure about.

But on her level with a wider goal post it will be more challenging than a street football goalie.

haaha tell me though which club she supports?

You can call me anything you like

Comrade_: haaha I'll excuse you OCD

err_HELLO: I think i mite call you casey *boots Jock* hehe n she likes manu

Comrade_: nooo duck-taping! haa

Comrade_: ahh ok k ManU is my top English side. She will pass, but I read on an old post that you don't like football hmm..you'll just have to serve us sandwiches haaha jk jk

err_HELLO: i dont like making sanwiches either
