I play 5 a sides every tuesday - usually with the same group of 10. As you all know there are always one or two that cant make it every week so having the same 10 doesnt always happen. What we discovered that when the original 10 play we have 5 Celtic supporters and 5 Rangers......que an arrangement for an Old Firm match up - everyone kitted out in the hoops and they obv had the blue. I have never been so pumped up to win at 5's before in my life. I was even more determined given that just prior to kick off one of them produced a speaker and ipod to blast out Simply The Best.
We won by 7. A right thumping. It was the closest i will come to an old firm game this season.
It felt awesome. I love being a tim.

we had one of those a few years back, it has never been repeated due the HR director suffering a broken leg from a rather robust, late tackle.
its amazing how your perception changes from people you work with, folk you might be genuinely freindly with, all of a sudden they become the enemy

I play with the same guys every week but we usually mix it up. Last night was different. Seeing 5 of them decked out in rangers colours got my adrenalin going.

We had two 11s games with Celtic vs Rangers fans. First one we won 6-5, we scored the winner in the last minute, great feeling
Second one we got a doing 8-5 cause the guy organising the gers team went away and got a few proper guys that play 11s and they ran all over us Worst day of my life
