well a bit of both its just a kickabout laugh, but we have goalposts, but no footy boots required, we dont need injuries on the first day of the festy

[Chazeboy]

I may be talked into being an emergency back-up reserve substitute last-minute scorer type of chap..

[Storm_NL]

of course you can, you were on the original ROW team sheet, but you went off radar so we scrubbed you, but if you want a 30 secs here or there, turn up on the weds and im sure there will be a place with no shows etc, incidentally, if you want a Rest of the World top (only 30 available) got to the Just giving page and donate (top of forum pinned) £10 - secures you a top and donates to water aid, we are aiming for £500 with the just giving site, we will also however have buckets going about on the day

What are the rules on non-performance-enhancing drugs?

Any goals or exceptional performances will have a large * beside it.

[Storm_NL]

Thats a legendary avatar, what game is it from?

[hogga]

Larger version of this coming to Mr.Flag09 sometime between now and Wednesday 24th June and a suitable print might also be spotted lurking somewhere nice and convenient in the vicinity of PGA ... providing that thoughts don't turn solely to the quest for Pear Cider on reaching the hallowed gates and I forget to find somewhere to bung it up on the way in of course

Hope you Rest-of-the-World chaps are getting some serious training in, there's money at stake here you know !

[Chazeboy]

mikeb, I've just noticed that the ROW team are huge compared to the England players. Have they been genetically modified in some eastern European lab. A bit like Ivan Drago from Rocky 4

[Storm_NL]

two worlds collide rise the nations

[Nicko]

I am really looking forward to this, managed to persuade the people I am going with that we needed to be there early on Wednesday just so i can be apart of history!

Is Andy Grey going to be there?? surely there will come a point when someone will need to tick'a'boo

Ah yes indeedy. I always said that there seemed to be many more professionally trained apple-based beverage aficionado's in the RotW team so it's probably just the anabollock cider or something having the desired effect But then again, I think it's all just a sign really ... a sign of who's @rse is going to get severely whipped, which triumphant team will be lifting the glorious cup on the day and conversely, which inferior team will find themselves providing copious quantities of post-match apple-based rehydration beverages and all that I'm mean let's face it, Eng-er-Land are usually pretty useless at most stuff unless there just happens to be a 1966 in the year or something like that So my very unpatriotic money is definitely on RotW. C'mon you World !!!

Anyways, I've made a few minor adjustments since I posted the first attempt coincidentally including just a hint of body part enhancement for at least one the Eng-er-Land players and I've also added a cannibalised version of your flyer below as well to make it up to A4 size. I'm hoping to get a few printed off and maybe laminated (just in case of the merest hint of precipitation) then find suitable homes for them en-route from Castle Cary via PGA to Hitchin Hill (ish) on Wednesday morning (ish)

If anyone else fancies doing something similar on their way in via another gate or whatever then you can grab a PDF from HERE if you want. Unfortunately it got JPEGed by my cr@ppy old bug ridden version of Acrobat Distiller seeing that it still wont do loss-less compression properly despite the alleged 'fixes' but fortunately all of the text is sufficiently large that it still prints out plenty good enough at A4 at 300dpi. Please don't forget to take them down and dispose of sensibly afterwards tho if you do this.

... wanders off to round up a few bovine supporters to add to the shiny new improved "now with added beef" version to go on Mr.Flag09.

PS: Oh yeah, just in case you haven't already twigged by now, Mr.Flag09 is the latest addition to the (in)famous Flag family and he will be fluttering gently in the breeze on top of a particularly handsome flagpole outside Ye Olde Tent shortly after arrival on site and PGA = Pedestrian Gate A, my usual point of entry into all things Glasto !

If the teams are full I'd better pack my pom poms! Is there a plan for the cheerleaders? I have read about 30 pages so far but gave up...

One point mate. On your cannibalised flyer it doesn't say the time of build up or game time.

If it doesn't say it then Chaz might 'forget' to turn up again like last year.

I get it now mate.

We should be OK, Staberinde has done different sizes to print off and we should have well over 500 to hand out by our lovely volunteers on the Wednesday. Funnily enough they are going to hang about the bars with a drink while they do it. What troopers.

[timespeedsup]

The more girls, the better.

I *may* have a chance of not looking like the worst player on the pitch...
