Over a week ago, Calum put up a great link on Facebook (http://www.punditarena.com/football/english-football/rbarrett/19-guys-you-always-see-at-five-a-side) which describes typical characters you would come across in a 5-a-side team.
It gathered great interest from a few TTFE members who started to compare players with the characters depicted in the article – most of which are good humoured such as the ‘fat guy with the touch’ or ‘one who is always late’. So when Chris decided to do a TTFE poll to see who we all think fit into each of the roles, a great survey was conducted with around a dozen entries. You can find the results in gold, silver and bronze order where appropriate. Thanks to all who participated! Remember – this is all good natured fun (after all I’m the one of the ‘fat guys with the feet’!) so please take it in the true typical TTFE spirit.
The things I do for Chris’ crazy schemes…
