Table football

[Mikey]

Just popped down to the EDT for a game of table footie, and gorblimey it's gone !!!

Anyone know another pub nearby with table football ?

[char1ie]

Love it! But it's a dying breed. I play at the red pub in Farringdon but there's nothing local.

Hi Mikey,

I'm sorry we didn't have the football table here when you came along the other day, I'm afraid it's been badly damaged.

Rest assured that I am getting it repaired or replaced. I shall post it on the forum as soon as I sort it!

Best Regards,

Ray

bit early in the day for a pub landlord to be knicking about on t'internet isn't it? Fair play tho...

[Mark]

excellent, it's coming back. How about a table football competition some time?

[downsouth]

I would be up for that.

[nutty]

no spinning rules of course?

[Asset]

Oh gawd, that's the only way I can play - spin like mad and hope for the best!

Agreed.

[mockney piers]

Absolutely, great idea.

Ray, fancy sponsoring it? Winner gets a drink of choice, but only after they've fixed your sound by streamin incomprehensible irish radio over the internet first ;-)

Fear&Boozing, fancy teaming up?

[Jimbo]

I am interested in taking part in the table footy comp, I will get a few practice matches in this weekend. I haven't played since the edf drinks at the edt.

[Brendan]

I'm cracking my knuckles as we speak.

?or is that as I type. :-S

?which would be a neat trick.

[Keef]

I'm up for it, I'm totalyy rubbish, but it's in a pub, so I'm happy to go out first round.

Piers, surely this won't be a team game... Will it?

If so, Annasfield, do you fancy being table Liverpool? I'm not too bad at the 2 man/woman game.

[Jimbo]

Who fancies making up a team.......?

[downsouth]

Which beer do they serve in the Plough? Something other than lager?

[Keef]

All sorts, but this will be happening in the EDT... Do you have very very long arms?

[downsouth]

LOL - obviosuly not being that attentive. OK what do they serve in EDT?

[nutty]

So - is it teams of two? I have a friend in Nottingham I could invite down for the weekend to take part. Are ringers allowed?

[Keef]

Yeah, I'm bringing my Italian cousin over!

[mockney piers]

Teams of two, if Fear, my traditional yet calamitous babyfoot partner, doesn't pipe up, I'll join you Jimbo (though I'm still smarting from that defeat you and huguenot inflicted on us).

downsouth.

Both the Artois, kroney, san miguel (?) and carling, brakspear and a.n.other ale, leffe I think (maybe hoegaarden) and a range of bottled including corona and the rival zoiders.

[david_carnell]

I'm up for it....

Clare, fancy representing the mighty, mighty Whites of Elland Rd at a table footy comp in SE London?!! And they say its only Man Utd supporters who don't live in the city of the team they support. Pah!

[Jah Lush]

I could be interested in this depending on the date. I haven't played for years but should be fun.

[Alan Dale]

No spinning rule is enforced by people who aren't good enough to beat people who spin.

Anyone with any class would relish the opportunity to devour a spinner. Easy pickings.

Less legislation - more action.

[Annasfield]

Yep okay Keef - we can be the mighty reds! >:D

[Annasfield]

P.S I'm absolutely useless - no skill involved at all, however sometimes it's a cunning ploy to help prop up the bar ;-) (ooh look another emoticon - I don't care though I like em'!)
