Duh! I even have last years ball - though it's a bit flat. If someone can bring a pump that would be great!! (it stays up for a week or so then goes a bit flat)

Yes (he says through lying teeth) :D . The rules are:

- No full pints allowed on the pitch (got to drink some of it first - wouldn't want beer sloshing everywhere)
- Run round lots and lots and lots. Then collapse :oops:
- Watch out for the odd bump in the ground :lol:
- Hope you're kicking downhill
- Try not to put the ball in the sea, otherwise you get wet

Ronnie, are you up for keeping Englands nets after last years stirling performance (changed the game when he decided to join us)?

Are you apologising to England or Scotland?
