Nugent4nil Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Pollok are the first squad for this year’s event to be full confirmed, it seems Mr. Sneddon has been a busy man! One withdrawal to note is Robert Downs who rumor has it he dived on the way to the bar when it was his round and unfortunately has damaged his ankle.

Nugent4nil Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 A few call offs late in the day but the weathers meant to be great so *bump* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugent4nil Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 More call offs, many more and also some now to confirm, out of chance are there any 35 years plus ex juniors who are free on Sunday and fancy coming along? We dont need too many to be fine but one or two additions would help for when the bodies start to give out through the day. Anyone interested drop me a DM, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugent4nil Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 Look into my eyes look into my eyes...... Come to Neilston on Sunday we are now all set to go! Referees and assistants, check Weather, check Programmes, check Players, check Hot and cold good available, check Supporters, ? It's to be lovely at Neilston on Sunday 19 degrees which in my book is 16 better than the 1980's group! Some of the finest players to grace junior football in recent years are confirmed so if your free come along if you have plans cancel them! Bring your wife, or husband, your kids, or parents, your mates, if you have them, bring yer dug but bring yersell! I'd also like to thank the many managers and players past and present who have wished us well for Sunday, if they do come this could be the biggest junior get together in many a year, please join us!
