Default Totally ruined Children IN Need event :mad:

Organsied an 11-a-side footie match for children in need, Spurs donated a kit, a guy from Ebay donated a trophy, Moorfields donated £400 to pay for a pukka coach.

Booked the 11-a-side pitch 2 months ago, and the fuckers double booked the pitch and split the pitch up to 3 five a sides, and all they could do is give us a five a side, (after arguing for 20mins before they accepted they fucked it up) so we had 50+ people turn up to watch an 11-a-side match only to get a right dodgy couple of shit 5 a side match with what are big tenis nts separing the pitchs i am sooo pissed off and sooo fucking embarssed plus i have to go to Spurs training ground with pitcures etc of the match

couldnt even give the trophy out

Gra - don't worry, these things happen mate.

Could have a word with my bro and see if he knows someone who might let you have an astro pitch somewhere near North London if you want to try it again.....
