Last Reds vs Blues game of the year, so your last chance to have a leisurely kick-about, even though we have one more international friendly to come before the season is over. And the annual Football Awards Night in December of course, which I'm sure you all are looking forward to. Make sure to keep that date free of all other engagements (see below for details).
The Golden Boot winner for this season is pretty much decided, unless one of the runners-up (El, Dan O and Matt W) scores 4 or more and the defenders manage to silence DiS's own Tom Daley impersonator. All other awards are still up for grabs. Can't make it more exciting than that.
The usual blurb:
- we play on a full-sized astro-turf pitch
- there are changing rooms and toilet facilities
- 5 min walk from Archway tube station (Northern line)
- 1 min walk from Upper Holloway train station (Barking - Gospel Oak line)
- Buses 17, 43, 263 and 271 all stop at Upper Holloway train station
- arrive at 3:30 PM for warm-up, tactics discussion, pre-match fags, team pictures, etc.
- kick-off at 4 PM sharp
- full 2 x 45 minutes and injury time + 15 min break
- one team will play in red shirts, the other in blue
- everyone can participate, the skills on display are wide-ranging
- final teams will be announced in the week leading up to the game
- 5 pounds each will be collected on the day
- post-match analysis in the Landseer pub on Landseer Road (5 mins walk away)
