pozbaird Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 …. had to play a game of fives against a team from the team you support, who would put the fear right up you and see your bottles crash faster than a fast thing that goes very fast… For me - Urminsky, Strain, Baccus, Gogic, Main. That gives me the fear. Urminsky over Carson because Urminsky is the size of a brick shithouse and would just need to lie down in front of the goals and fill them.

rowsdower Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Motherwell can pick any five they want, I'll batter the lot of them, and I won't need any mates (don't have any, I battered them). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviLion Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Someone to stand in goals, Nouble to just walk about with the entire other team hanging off him, Anderson to stand as close to the goal as possible. Chuck Devlin and Fitzwater in for a "defence". Just need 4 more people and we've got a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Those of us old enough to remember the Tennent's Sixes would also remember that the ones that should have looked good transferring from a full size pitch to a 5-a-side one, rarely did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey Edwards Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Bold of you to assume that I've got four friends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) Goram - self explanatory Amoruso - decent defender but could also ping a ball. Would be deadly at fives Or Goldson - decent range of passing Ferguson - you’d never get the ball off him Laudrup - he’d tie you in knots McCoist - the ultimate poacher ETA: I seen it’s clarified current players so it would be: McGregor, Goldson, Kamara, Kent, Colak Edited February 1, 2023 by AJF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Nouble, Anderson, Omeonga, Holt, Devlin, don't think they need to bother with a goalkeeper, we wouldn't have the ball enough to be shooting at their goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, when you say put the fear into you, do you mean physically intimidating or they'd scare you because you'd get hammered? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my St Mirren fives team, Strain and Baccus, ahead of Urminsky in goal, have skill, speed, stamina, would chip in with goals, and could track up and down all day. Sitting in front of them, Gogic would be able to swat us aside while smoking a cigar and reading the paper, and Main up top would ragdoll us into submission. Hammered. Broken. Defeated….. Then kick off arrives. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suddenly, you’ve taken me back to Shuggie Murray’s testimonial sixes at Braehead, where an ageing John Collins was absolutely masterful. Class. Edit - and where Darren Jackson was a grade 1 walloper. At a testimonial sixes, takes the ball into the corner, does a John McGinn impersonation with his arse, trying to keep the ball in the corner and waste minutes of time. Fanny.

Then kick off arrives. Got you. In that case. Gordon, Kingsley, Devlin, McKay, Humprys Gordon would pretty much be unbeatable in that sort of game Kingsley is a top defender, but also tremendous on the ball and has a great strike on him Devlin would be an absolute pest, players can't get away from him on a full size pitch McKay has so much ability he'd just be counting how many megs he's produced Humphrys is a unit and would bounce people all over the place 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted February 1, 2023 Author Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) If we went old-school, I’d top myself first before being sent out to play Campbell Money, Alex Beckett, Billy Abercromby, Tony Fitpatrick, and pick one from Doug Somner, Frank McAvennie, Frank McGarvey or Frank McDougall.

dagane Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Alan Mcculloch ( Scotland's no 1) Derrick Mcdicken and Paul Clarke (f**k crossing the half way line to face those two ) Iain cowboy Mcculloch (just in case you were thinking of crossing the half way line in the first place) Willie Watters (goals galore) Trophies in the bag 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
