chaddy the owl

Im deffo up for the game, i should be ok for the training as well. Im playing my first game in 4 weeks tonight to see if im alright to play again.

I am bidding for Richie, he is happy to go on the bench. And at over £400 for a normal place im not suprised.

Geoff, When do i miss sitters? You know me by now mate. The only time i dont hit the target is when i head the ball, and thats cause my hair is so hard with all the gel that the ball goes in the direction my hair decides I wont be in the team for shooting anyway, it will be more for my eye for a killer pass.

There have been times in the past when i have thought i was going to die myself after running round like im an 18 year old. Thats why i will be back on my fitness regime next week until lthe start of the season, but this time im going to keep it going after the season starts as well. Im not getting any younger you know

Dont get me wrong, i cant do much else besides run a lot, hit it hard and cross it accurately. I certainly cant tackle (apart from when im at 5-a-side and one of my mates is being booted, then i lose my rag ). I cant really head it very well (it might mess my hair up ) Other than that i am an "ok" player.

If you do find me i hope youve got body armour on incase i hit the ball at you. I have been told of several people that it stings for a few hours afterwards. This is going to be a superb game, i cant wait. Has it come out yet about it being changed to 6:45 kickoff?

In all honesty, i can play anywhere apart from goal. Im left and right footed, but im more acurate and powerful with my right. I usually play right wing, but last year Tommy Wright put my up front and he said i did an excellent job. I can hit it with a bit of power (as beardy will confirm) but my best attribute is that i can put a ball at someones foot from anywhere within about 60 yards. Oh, and im "alright" at free kicks. Ive got a feeling i will do as im told though if Shez tells me

Oh Happy Days I have just had it confirmed that i AM playing in the Latics XI team. Now im excited. All i need to do now is just make sure that ive had enough rest for my cracked ribs to be right for it. This is going to be ace.

Im afraid that if im not in the Latics team then im not playing at all. I cant afford to be paying out £200 or more at the minute, im paying to get my coaching badge next month plus i have quite a few family birthdays next month. I would always turn up in costume though.

Im trying to find out myself who will be playing for the Latics XI. But im also trying to find out for sure if im still playing in it. Simon Corney told me i woul dbe at the awards night, but he had a few drinks that night. I will be gutted if im not now.

No mate, most of them have seen me play before when ive played on the "club team" in the past. Me and Tommy Wright were a great striking partnership last year It should be a great game, Simon Corney will be the one that suprises most people, he is a really good footballer.

Im not bothering putting in a bid for this one........ But thats because Simon corney told me about this game at the awards night and told me i would be playing in the Latics team. I cant wait.

Really sorry i didnt turn up everyone. I was actually there for those of you who dont know me, i was playing on the pitch with nets for Royton seeing as my manager arranged a freindly at the last minute against the White Hart pub team. I kept looking down to see what was going on when our game stopped for any reason. I should have just left our lot and come down there. Next time i will be there, honestly.

I take it that most people will be going somewhere afterwards to watch Yeovil kick Blackpools Ar*es? Where are you all watching it then?

I will deffinately be there. And no..........Im not wearing the outfit Who said there going in net then??? Hope you have your wrists insured? Have they still got the full size nets up? If so, do you want netting?

Without a doubt...the nicest bloke you could wish to meet. Obviously spoke to him quite a few times, but the highlight for me had to be his benefit game... Already had an appearence on for that day which i promised to do, but when Eyresy found out he came over to me and asked me if i could do my best just to show my face for him, how could i refuse? After doing and appearence in Bradford for the female officer who was shot dead i jumped in the car and drove like a maniac just to get to BP in time for him coming out onto the pitch. Just about managed it, and really enjoyed the first half, but by half time i was exhausted after being Chaddy for 5 hours non stop. Went and got changed to watch the second half, which was even better than the first half. After the game he invited me to the private party in the bar. Whilst in the bar he came over and asked me where i went to at half time. I explained that i was shattered, to which he said "that's a shame, we were going to put you up front in the second half on our team". I honestly thought i was going to cry there and then. At the end of the party my missus came to pick me up with my lads in the car, so i told him i was going. He wouldnt let me leave as te bar was still open, so i had to invite the family in to have a drink with him, and by the end of the day it was just me and my family, Eyresy, Darren Sheridan and Darrens mate left in the bar till they shut it. He spoilt my kids rotten and was signing all sorts of stuff for them which they were amazed at. A true legend in every sense of the word.

I got told at my first away game two and a half years ago that the original chaddy was in the crowd, but i didnt see him myself. Never seen or heard about him since. Would love to sit down and have a chat with him. I even got given his email address which i sent a message to but he never replied...shame really.

You mean you ignored the letter of intent to prosecute you lying git

That would be absolutely fantastic mate. I said to the club during the summer that i would buy a drum, but just never got round to it. Are you going to the game tomorrow? If you are i could pick it up from you there, if not just leave me a message on here and i will arrange to pick it up from you. I think its only right that i pay you for it, so please let me know how much. PLEASE USE PM!

You dont even want to get me started on OCD, i am terrible. If i play football i have to put my shin pads on a certain way and then when i put my socks on i need to pull them up in a certain way and in the right order. I have to do my right foot first and that includes putting my boots on, plus they have to be tied in a certain way. Then when the refs about to blow the whistle i have to be touching my tatoo on my arm or i think i will have a bad game or get injured. I know htis sounds starnge, but the only time i never did it just to prove to myself i was being stupid i ended up in hospital with a suspected broken ankle whoch turned out to be damaged ligaments. Also, if i look at the time on my watch, i need to look at it, then look away three times for some strange reason. And if i put the key in the ignition i have to put it in a certain way, so if the wife has been driving to pick me up and i then drive i will have to check the key, turn off the ignition, take the key out, turn it round, and restart the car before i can drive off. I only have to drink alcohol on a day of the week with a "y" in it.

"Get rid of those sideburns hippy" Daarrrryyyylllllll, Daarrryyylll. That song is well funny, i had it on my old computer before it crashed and broke, i really need to get it again. I have seen every episode there is, i drive my wife mad with it as when its on i will sit there saying the words. Best episode ever though has got to be the "shining" one....."No beer ot tv make Homer something something", "go crazy"........Dont mind if i Dooooooooooooooo, wooh wooh wooh wooh".

I am looking at his picture and of course know who he is, but there is only one thing thats comes to mind when i see him, and it will only be found funny by any "serious" Simpsons fans......... In the episode where the power plant employ a group of pro baseball players so mr burns can win a bet with the shelbyville power plant owner, Ken Griffey Jnr drinks too much brain tonic and ends up with gigantism. Is it just me or does Kriss Akabusy look like him post gigantism?
