OwlsfaninNorway Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 It's that thing where you stand on the spot and keep the ball up using your foot, knee, shoulder, head etc That would be pretty prestigeous in a match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nevthelodgemoorowl Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 More Seriously, our 150th Aniversary looms in a few years time..... As part of the celebrations we should recreate our first Cromwell Cup win match. Raise a team of Sheffield Mechanics against The Wednesday, all in old kit and our Blue and White halves with long shorts and heavy boots. Goals 4' wide with another two posts 4' to the outside of the goals. Goals and rogues to count. The only rules are no carrying ( you can stop the ball with your hand) and no scratching, hacking or gouging. For a bit of added excitement The Mechanics could play in Red & White stripes.

trevdi9 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Definitely Another idea was that if you keep the ball on the centre spot for more than 30 seconds you get 1000 points/goals fetch potter back for that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Lestrade Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Now that players are more athletic and fitter, how about making each half last an hour. Nobody to be paid any extra money either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
