hey drew, that works for me!
works for me also.
i’d like to make it to a match this season. next sunday sounds great.
hey richard, is anything up for after the pens game tomorrow?
bobby
Bobby, not that I know of.
Drew, I’ve been down several times to the Pub and would love to play…Sunday the 14th eh? The way Preston is playing if I have a good match I may be picked for their starting XI!
Drew, Been down to Piper’s several times and would love to play if that is OK. The way Preston NE is playing if I have a good match I may make their starting XI!
I’ll do my utmost to be there on the 14th. I have an important paper due the next day, but will try to finish it by Saturday. Look forward to seeing all of you again.
Drew, I don’t know if I can make it.
Come on Brendan you got to have some Frequent Flier miles…..
Brendan,
We will blast one over the bar from 6 yards out in your honour.
I will be there. I will be sure to drag Matt out too.
Tommy I think we need you to sub again our Irishman will not fly out for any of the international Piper’s matches.
I’ll be there, sadly, as a spectator. I’m having a bone scan next Tuesday. Still not fully healed after eight long weeks. It’s getting rather frustrating. I really look forward to playing again soon!

***Sissoko must go!!!***
I’m planning on making the trip from GC. I’ll be bringing with me my two friends who were in the pub with me on Sunday.
I’m definitely up for Sunday! Do we have a kickoff yet?
Sounds like I am being dragged there, so I will be in attendance.
I think noon would be good. Anyone?
Noon sounds good. I am also going to be inviting a fried of mine to play.
hey drew, i make it to the pub relatively often considering i still regularly coach and play on the weekeneds. i’d like to come play in a match but i understand if some of the regular guys might not welcome the idea of a 23 yr old running around. please let me know though cuz from reading the blogs about the other games it sounds like they are a good time.
ps. united for the treble!!
We do not mind 23yr olds running around. We just don’t chase them!
Andy can mark Shane.
sounds like we may have a full squad a side…My italian buddy might play too
I might be bringing someone along as well.
And we’re at the Harlequins field again, right?
Yes at founders field.
thanks guys, looking forward to it…
Hey everyone, I was thinking(which I know I shouldn’t do) about Sunday and a couple things came to mind. Make sure everyone brings a dark and a white shirt. Also since it is probably the last pub match of the year, I was going to ask everyone to bring some type of food to the game(Pretzels, chips, cookies, and we always need some beer!). This way we aren’t eating 5 hot dogs a piece haha. Last but not least, if you are coming from the city on 28, you might want to leave a bit early since it is still down to one lane from the rock slide.
See everyone on Sunday,
Bobby
I bet we could use McKinney park in the North Hills. Theres 5 or 6 pitches so one should be open.
I agree with Richard, North Park is our best bet…please spread the word around to make sure everyone knows.
in case anyone needs directions…

Thanks guys Mckinney Park sounds great I do not know much about it . First come first Serve?
hey guys, will the gates be unlocked for McKinney? Is it a public park?
Cheers
Its public. The only time I’ve seen the gates locked is on holidays. Plus I know another field if need be thats close and is never being used.

Directions and info for first timers can be found here. We will kick off at Noon. Tony please bring a faster watch I am still sore from the last match!
So its back to Founders field then right? I think its more comfortable there then at McKinney. There are no bleachers there and the pitches are hard as a rock.
Ill make some pasta salad.
Tony doesn’t have a watch anyways. He uses an hour glass to keep time. See everyone on Sunday.
Thats great news Drew, I will see everyone there on Sunday with adult beverages and some snacks.
An hourglass is better than a Sun Dial.
Especially in Pittsburgh. We would only be able to tell time about 30 days a year.
Drew, if nots too much to ask…some plastic forks…if need me to get some let me know
Forks plates ect will be there for everyone. No problem…..
Drew and all, thanks once again for a great time! See everyone this coming Saturday bright and early.
Thanks again to everyone who played yesterday. I have had a great time playing in the first four matches and hope to play many more next year. I think March will be the next time we can play at Founders. If we can get an indoor venue for the winter months I’ll be glad to host another. Again thanks to everyone who played, Watched and made food for all four matches.
Drew,
Thanks for putting on another match. I had a great time running around, but I am paying for it today. Both quads and calves are shot and it is painful just walking around. Yesterday was the perfect day to have a match.
Drew,
Thanks for putting it all together is was a good time. If anyone found my lungs please bring them to the pub, I’ll get them there.
All the lungs we found including my own are in the dumpster. There were simply too many to fit in my van.
P.S. There is a gentleman who owns an indoor facility near Founders Field that contacted us today who is coming in for the England Match in the morning and he may be able to help us out for the winter months. The best part of it he has not seen our skills: unless he checked out the u tube clip from the third match that is !!!!!!
there are some good skills in that clip…nando’s flip to my save. We got a good third division squad at least
Here we go you young speedsters from Piper’s FC …
