2004 Nations Cup

Keeper · 06-25-2004, 03:01 PM

I can't wait to be Greek again this year. It's nice to be able to look up to your national team for inspiration once in a while.

Ballbaby, I'm wait for the call . . .

darkmeat · 06-26-2004, 05:40 PM

did they draw the groups yet???

**Regs** · 06-26-2004, 05:49 PM

Yes, they did, in fact the schedule is done as well... but they have asked me to hold off from uploading it until further notice (might be some changes I suppose).

No harm in listing the groups though...

Group 1
Scotland
Poland
Ireland
Croatia

Group 2
Germany
First Nations
China
Caribbean

Group 3
Italy
India
Greece
Portugal

Group 4
Fiji
England
Argentina
Canada

Group 3 is the group of death this year I think

Good luck to all!

5BigOnes, does that mean you're buying this year??? I'll carry them for ya

**rangerforever** · 06-28-2004, 11:46 AM

5BTs:

Does England not have an 0-38 side this year?
Some other players are going on to greener and more mature pastures this year in your age group.

Dus nae matter.
Yoo'd be getting a right wallap anyhoo if ye did.

Scotland 0-30s and 0-38s played a cracking exhibition game yesterday out on the Langley oval.
For once, decent football graced that pitch Sunday morning.

You're all in danger,

RF

PS - Regs:
Any of the more refined categories been drawn yet?
I assume this is the Open draw or do all countries have participants at all levels?

Gotta like it!

Come on Scotland.

john · 06-29-2004, 12:54 PM

This may seem a little premature but still one worth investigating ( at least for the host of the site and the organizers). I believe the semi's for the open division is between W GRP 1 vs W GRP 3 and W GRP 2 vs W GRP 4, not as shown on the site.

Good luck to all,

John

**Regs** · 06-29-2004, 01:19 PM

What would make you believe that?

Cheers,

Willy · 06-29-2004, 02:23 PM

Sorry John, you may want to check your sources. I believe you've been misinformed.

john · 06-29-2004, 02:36 PM

Sir William...............checked!

I stand corrected

Can't trust anyone anymore now can yah

RFC,

This is the first year I have not been able to play/organize a team in the tourney....and because no one else would step up to run the team (England O30) the team fell by the wayside...unfortunate but true!

See ya in the beer garden to tilt a pint ya old bastard!

BTW:your buying

I might be joining you if my ankle doesn't heal. Yes, I'm injured again. Picked it up in Vernon in May long weekend. Before anybody yaps, I'm pushing 39 years old and have played year round for umpteen years. I'm hoping Advil will help matters a bit, otherwise I'm chugging a few with you Cal.

friedbread · 07-04-2004, 09:06 PM

I second that friedbread, waiting for the call from Ron, since I got snubed by the Open Team

, I am hoping for a O-30 vs. Open not-so-friendly match.
If I get no call, I am hoping that Ballbaby and the Euro Chumps Greece have an opening, but, "The Greeks don't need no Freaks".
Good tune.

Ron call me.

Don't worry HoS; you’ll get picked to play eventually. I’m sure the delay is due to Scotland sussing out its next to last pick which, from what I’ve heard, is going to be a tough one. Do they use it on Siamese twins who have just come off ACL surgery? Or the former special Olympic Silver Medallist in hop scotch? I say former, which isn’t necessarily fair at this point, but with that nasty steroid issue, it’s only a matter of time. Once those three are snapped up the fat kid is always next. Hold tight young man, there is still 12 minutes left in recess.
