Guys do we have enough for tonight's game before I make my 2 hours drive down from pattaya?

[hansje1980]

Hi all, I was looking for some football.. because my gf says im getting fat.. and lazy... im not sure if you guys can use a lazy , smoking, with a belly guy on the field.. but i sure like to play as i think its good exercise and fun as well... im not really good, but if i am welcome, please let me know all info i need... and does it contain training as well as i see like 200-300 thb each per hour ? so there is a coach as well? looking forward to any usefull reply

ps. im 30 yo, dutch, like i said.. lazy lol, like soccer and live near on nut. not sure what the ages for this is.. only 60+ yo? anyhow, would still be fun, social and healthy

[hansje1980]

sorry, just noticed the THB is needed for getting to play on the field...

I was wondering if this is a once per week thing, or also like 2 or 3 times per week? The more the better.

Perhaps I can invite a friend with me as well.

Another question. What is the level of the people playing ? I mean, I am not even an amateur, still worth to join ? Or will I never touch the ball, lol

Hi Hansje,

Sure, you are welcome to come and play, as is anyone. It's for fun, and the age and skill/experience of the players is mixed, so it's up to you.

We have players that are fit and some that are not so fit (myself for one), and some are in their early 20s while some are 40+.

We don't train or do any coaching as we are not a team competing in any competitions, we just play a game.

We try to make sure that the playing time is spread evenly for everyone that comes and the fee is simply the cost of hiring the pitch split equally by the number of people that play.

We are now playing 2 times a week, on Sunday afternoon and also on Wednesday evening.

Come and play, then you can see for yourself if it's what you want.

-Adam.

Thanks Damaja, will call a friend of mine, and see if we gonna join, if not, I will come alone next week to check it out :-)

EDIT: is there like a FB group page for the ones playing, if not, perhaps it's an idea to make a closed (by invite only) group page, with some pics, vids, and ofcourse the twice per week info, as well as main info maybe even make it public, so others can find it as well and join just and idea.... hehe

Guys, I cant do it this Wednesday's evening.

Work is piling up!

[damaja]

Ok, last Wednesday was a pretty low turnout of 8, so this week, unless we can get definite confirmations of 12 I'll cancel.

So, extras called for please...

I'm assuming all that came last week will be on for it again (with the exception of Dave -Marui- who's already confirmed he can't):

-Adam (damaja)

-Josh

-Anthony

-Emanuel

-Tom

-Chris A.

-Dom (?)

So, assuming all those 7 are confirmed, we need at least another 5 please...?

all of us are fb users....

I agree - get tons of emails already and could do without dozens more.

Plus I believe it's easier for everyone to see status at their convenience rather than me tracking email threads and sumarising etc.

This is why I started with the forum thread, along with the very important fact that potential new players find us through searching the internet and getting results that link back to here.

No way that would happen if we just communicate by email alone.

Anyway, I'm setting up a FB page now... just hope *everyone* will use that

[damaja]

Ok, how about this:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bangkok-Footy-Giants-SoccerFutbol/180087055370049

Not sure if this is the best thing to set up (or a 'group', or an actual 'user' page), but can see how it goes...

[Dazspur]

Guys...I'm interested in the 5 a side. Still playing in Silom?

Important facts;

Age:46

Weight: too heavy

Vices: drinking/smoking

Fitness Level: poor

Experience: decent level in Australia all those years ago

[lpk]

as usual, thanks to adam, for taking the lead.

Guys, big news this week is the time we play on Sunday is now

*6pm-8pm*

It's in anticipation of the impending hot season, plus the sun coming through onto the pitch is becoming a major irritation.

So, I hope the new later time will be okay with everyone.

Also, I've created a Facebook page, in the hope that even the iPhone and Blackberry users will find it convenient enough to use rather than emails for responses & conversations etc., here:

http://www.facebook....55370049?v=wall

Any of the regulars that join it I'll make Admin status so you can post pics/vids/links whatever.

Not sure if I should make a Facebook 'Group' also/instead, any advice as to which would be best is appreciated.

For a while I'll post reminders on all 3 (ThaiVisa, Facebook & Email), but hoping pretty soon one will prove popular enough that I can narrow it down again to just 1.

Ok, so, the usual reminder/confirmation:
