2nd efestivals Glasto World Cup discussion thread

[sinhala]

Not that I remember. Why?

[LondonTom]

Could do with a bit of TV coverage of the game, how about asking Sky if they will bring their HD cameras down, with Andy Gray commentating

[sinhala]

I know he was at the festival doing tartot readings (apparently did a sneaky one for Springsteen), and somewhere over the last couple of days I have seen a photo of him at last year's festy looking sweaty-faced and wearing what looked like a red footy top ?

[glasgowpete]

HD is old hat now!, its all about 3D footie!

[sinhala]

No he didn't play but most of the England team looked like that by the end. The ROW team on the other hand didn't put enough effort in to break sweat!

[hogga]

theres gonna be a lot of wierd and wonderful shapes running around!

[Chazeboy]

bumped to...

1-raise some money www.justgiving.com/glastoworldcup2010

2-Let new people see what we are planning

3-to let everyone know that I have bought my Cup final day suit, 3 piece + accessories £20.00 (was 120.00) to be finished off with a nice blue tie or fancy scarf, ala Mancini. and that i believe that the ROW will be proud to have a nicely dressed dapper manager in charge, and not some scruffy englander

The efestivals Glastonbury World Cup is back - and everyone's invited

Last years event saw prematch entertainment from Hobo Jones and the Junkyard Dogs, then England romping to a 9-3 victory over the Rest of the World with the icing on the cake being Michael Eavis turning up to present the trophy! All that plus we raised over £3000 for WaterAid.

Once again me (England) and Chazeboy (Rest of the World) are organising the game and we are putting together two teams to take part.

This years 2nd efestivals Glastonbury World Cup in aid of WaterAid takes place on -

Thursday 24th June at 1 o'clock on the Pyramid stage field.

Hopefully with the real world cup being on and an England game on the big screen on the Wednesday there will be plenty of flags and supporters to hopefully beat last years excellent crowd (especially England's rowdy barmy army - who all piled on Englands goalkeeper at the end of the game!).

It will all kick off at 1pm with prematch entertainment from Hobo Jones and the Junkyard Dogs who will be doing a 40 minute set.

After that, the big game will start with two teams of athletes brimming with sublime skill who will pit themselves against each other in a grudge match like no other.....well I can't promise that but I can promise a few overweight festie types kicking a ball about in grass so long you could lose Peter Crouch in it.

The game will then finish around 3 o'clock when once again the festival King himself Michael Eavis will present the trophy to the winning team.

WaterAid will again be on hand with collection buckets at the game as we hope to try and beat last years excellent total and try and secure donations equivalent to the cost of building three wells. Also people who can't make it to the event can make an online donation at http://www.justgiving.com/glastoworldcup2010/

Please come along and help support an event that we hope will become a Glastonbury tradition. Last years game got some great coverage on BBC, ITV, Worthy FM as well as the Q Glastonbury review magazine (who are once again sending Pat Gilbert down to play for the England team). We hope with your help and support and people digging deep with their donations we can have another brilliant event that we can all be proud of.

Hello. I really like the idea of this, and it'd be great to be involved. 24 hours into Glastonbury I'm likely to be far too toasted actually to play, but I've got a Phd in maths, can count up to 5 on EITHER hand, and have my own clipboard and pen, so can I dress up as Dr. Kleiner from Half Life and put myself forward as a candidate for the job of 'Official Auditor / Scorekeeper'??

is paul actually playing?

[hogga]

is paul actually playing?

[ampersand]

I don't think so.

[Chazeboy]

ah right, i see norainplease in our team as well. coupled with the fact that even despite these two, you have more players than us, i'm calling shenanigans

Edited April 29, 2010 by Chazeboy

[hogga]

well that and maybe getting my hands on the trophy!!!

[Chazeboy]

Stop dreaming mate

Whats the score with the video's you are putting together, have you started on them yet mate?

[hogga]

yup filming is finished, and am now in post production, which translates as , waiting for my crappy computer to work to edit all the videos together, with exciting or heartfelt or angry music. this sounds easy but my computer is now offically a relic of 7 years ago but they are coming. promise

[Manbags]

Yeah that would be good mate Last year I'm sure we won 10-2 but after a bit of banter 9-3 was accepted so we could do with an official scorekeeper to keep things right. I'll put you on the first post.

If you can help out with a donation as well that would be good.

http://www.justgiving.com/glastoworldcup2010/

[Billy09]

Cheers. I just hope that neither team scores more than 10 goals this year... I wouldn't want to have to take off my wellies so I can keep count.

[hogga]

Just a heads up.

We have some exciting news on how this event is getting bigger this year!!!

When all the details are sorted you nice efesters will be the first to know.

Hopefully all will be confirmed within the next few days.

Please keep donating in the meantime as I believe the amount raised so far has helped us with this.

Thank you all those who have donated so far.

is it that they're getting the lawnmower out?

[sinhala]

They are using a bigger ball - will make it easier to see through cider-soaked eyes ...
