StefanAVFC Posted May 10, 2013 VT Supporter Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Please move or delete this if it's 1) been done before or 2) in the wrong place But In the days of 606, we had a football team. A hallowed football team that came together with excellent spirit and playing ability and we won 2 cups. Now, I haven't been on VT long, so I don't know if this has been attempted before. But it could be a good opportunity to raise some money and have some fun. Over the years, there have been numerous tournaments between fan teams that have raised some really good amounts of money. With football nearly being over for the summer and there being no summer tournament to keep us tiding over, I was thinking of putting together a Villa Talk football team to play in a charity friendly. Now I've been thinking about it for a while, but since Stan's announcement, it's put it to the front of my mind and it might be a really good opportunity to raise some money for his Leukaemia trust by doing something HE loves. Obviously this is a really early idea, but the fact we put together an 18 man squad together from 606, I'm sure we could get a team from a forum with far more members. I'm just posting this to gauge interest, whether people would be up for it. I know doing stuff with people from the internet is still a bit iffy, but I 100% know this kind of thing could work. Whether you're local or not you can support this. I know a few of the managers for different fan teams and it could be easily set up.

Ingram85 Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 I'm up for it but I'm incredibly shit and unfit. I'd have to be goalie, kit man or orange cutter in halfer. 2
CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 If the team name isn't 'The Dog Botherin', Auntie Lovin', Toilet Lurkin' Villans', I'll be most disappointed. 1
StefanAVFC Posted May 10, 2013 Author VT Supporter Posted May 10, 2013 Ability really doesn't matter. As long as we have fun and raise some money, who cares?
The_Rev Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Remember the last Villatalk team? They were so shit that even QPR could have beaten them! 1
StefanAVFC Posted May 10, 2013 Author VT Supporter Posted May 10, 2013 Remember the last Villatalk team? They were so shit that even QPR could have beaten them! The 606 Villa team won the cup twice. Want to let them pantwetters (including me) beat us!?
villa-revolution Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Count Con in....................................so at least you have Barry Bannan for starters. Also, if the previous team is as shit as you claim perhaps you can persuade Jock Mc shit to manage you. Otherwise ...............Good Luck!

limpid Posted May 11, 2013 Administrator Posted May 11, 2013 I do occasionally get asked if VillaTalk has a team. I'll post in this thread if anything comes in. Can you pick a name though and I'll add a tag for it.

abdulaziz1 Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Great idea .. Wish i could really join that .. Although it depends wether im in the uk or outside .. + the duration of it .. I like to play as a left wenger .. Gabby style .. But ofcourse no that fast and stamina .. Lol just kidding .. But really its interesting ..
GarethRDR Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 For a one-off game, I'd happily jump on the train up and grace you with my awesome goalkeeping skills*. *ability not a guarantee, terms and conditions apply. 1
StefanAVFC Posted May 11, 2013 Author VT Supporter Posted May 11, 2013 Yeah it'll just be a 1 off for now, with potential for more games if people enjoy it.
villa-revolution Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Looks like Christian Benteke is available now too
AndyM3000 Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Im up for it depending on location/times etc. Edited May 11, 2013 by AndyM3000
