Thanks again to everyone, especially tricky.

Couldn’t have been any better.

Top class

P.S

My guys want an 11 a side in the summer.....

Let’s get a date in diary for 11s game soon, end of the season late May / early June prob be ideal.
 
A massive thanks to everyone, players and supporters who played and stood on the sidelines in constant rain and sub Arctic conditions. Total quality. Thank you on behalf of me , Mrs BIG G and Shaun's family.

There was more money raised than suggested by my good friend Tricky and I will match the total pound for pound for Sarcoma Uk . Sarcoma is a rare cancer and a bit of a Cinderella of this awful disease .

Could I also give a massive shout to my good friend and fellow St.Pat's member Hugh Cockburn who has raised over 1000 quid for Sarcoma UK in Shaun's memory by cycling from his home in Sunderland to most of the Fitba Grounds in the Central Belt of Scotland and Newcastle/Sunderland and Carlisle. Anyone who travels every second week to see the Cabbage, and sometimes during the week is is not only Hibs Class, but just fuckin class.

Also a shout out to to the Crazy Gang who did the 3 peaks in 24 hours. Several of whom were playing the other day.

Last but not least the FC Groningen St. Patrick's Branch Massive who have been immense.

Cheers my good friend

Congrats to all involved in the fitba' matches, would loved to have joined you but think I will stick to the cycling.

I am busy planning the routes to the remaining 19 grounds I have left to visit, intending starting again in early April and hope to complete by September, all in the memory of Shaun.

Actually thinking of doing a few more English grounds once I have completed my Scottish quest.

All the best to you and your lovely family and hope to see you soon in the Hibs club.

Proud to be a Hibee and a member of St. Pats.

Got another 250 quid G, am away till tomorrow but will drop in after I get back.
 
early heads up that this match will be happening again on Hogmanay on the links and bottom shop after and will be an annual event.

first dibs to those who played last time but pretty sure there will be space for anyone from the bounce who wants to play

the swashbuckling aggie will be the captain if available..

@shepdogg get a chat sometime to arrange

RIP Shaun Live Forever

Can’t see why not - due at my cousin’s wedding at night, but should have plenty time - it’s at the Queen Charlotte Rooms [emoji23]

Happy to assume the honour of Bounce captaincy. I expect and demand 100%. Perhaps a warm weather training camp first, depending on Euromillions outcomes.

My first issue to resolve: will @southfieldhibby be stripped this time, or will he be on the touchline again with the half time oranges and a note from his ma?

Sorry, SKII jnr is away for New Year this time.
 
Sounds good- I’ll be there to play in nets or do my best Colin Nish impersonation up front if my ankles hold up!

Superb. Cannie wait :)
 
Squad list I have is;

Kieran P, Aggie, Southfield, Me, Whiskas, Neill / crawfaldo, J’mon, Stew plus one..everyone still ok for it?
Meet 1230 ish for 1pm kick off.
 
Absolutely. Looking forward to it.

Was at Pinkie playing fields for an hour smashing a ball about yesterday morning - Shaun would laugh at that prep.
 
Yep I’m still in, haven’t kicked a ball in about 2 months so this could be interesting...
 
Not kicked a ball in anger for 2 years, dodgy knee,foot and shoulder. A brisk walk from work on Junction street to St Marys should be enough of a warm up.
Be kind to me, lads.

Not played since August due to injury, looking at a defensive formation I think..
