Remember when ?
« on: November 04, 2008, 02:32:57 PM »
When yuh could've played without shin pads ?
When the big fellas would play with a size 5 ball and the youths had to play with size 4 ?
When ah oldish ball get wet, it does get slimey and weigh about 10 lbs ? Yute men would ketch dey arse to kick dat.
When games were only played in the daytime ?
When a man get a serious blade, yuh either wait till he get back up, or if it look serious, just drag him to side of the field and continue the game ?
When fellas didn't wear tights under they shorts, or 'body armour' under dey shirt ?
When to look like a footballer, yuh had to have the strings in yuh shorts hanging outside yuh pants half down yuh leg ?
When Patrick, Lotto, Mitre and Pony was big name tugs ?
