Lol. And expect us to go public in graphic detail about all indiscretions. For the sake of transparency of course!
Well maybe Mr. Live Wire whole team really needs to drink plenty alcohol eh, in order to win their first game. Them really good yes hahahahaha
I got a WhatsApp message about this event. I wonder if that counts as an invitation to play?
Come to lime. Walk with a boots… Just don’t kill me if you don’t get much minutes as we are prioritising the former national players and coaches. 😉
The English language is a very complex language but I decipher from “much minutes” I will be getting SOME minutes. #IllBeThere =D
Hahaha… Okay. We can’t promise minutes. We can promise lime. Once we can get you a tush we would. But we just have to prioritise the internationals first.
You playing Saintfiet now. Good thing I ask for immediate clarification lol
Hahaha. I never said he was smelling of alcohol. I just said I was standing up next to him and smelling alcohol! Hahahaha!
is this the field close to UWI SPEC?
No. It is the field next to the Admin building, which is close to the bus route.
By the way can someone get in touch with the top goal scorer of the Super League 2015/2016 season and invite him to the football festival and yes I am recruiting because we not taking any chances with Mr. Live Wire and his recruiting skills et all eh. hahahahaha
Darin Lewis, Anthony Sherwood, Terence William Fenwick, Ahkeela Mollon and Dion Sosa, we are going to use a different field this time. Because of cricket we are switching to the Admin ground where we played in 2014.
So we do have lights and we will start half hour later.
Will do update as I just came off phone with official from UWI.
