That Mole must have been on Steroids.

I played many an amateur football game there in my youth (mainly on a Saturday as it turned out but sometimes also playing for the pub team on a Sunday). These pitches were used morning and afternoon. I couldn't count the number of games that were played there simultaneously - the place was mobbed. The sad thing is that these pitches no longer exist and the purpose built dressing rooms since demolished. Makes me wonder how many young men in the area play amateur football nowadays and where.

Going to a non-league game on a Sunday in Cornwall back in those days it was entrance by progamme only as you were not allowed to charge at the gate; (they sold the programmes outside).

Fantastic skills by the goalie at 1.30. Had us all off.

I remember in the 80s there were half day Wednesday's most shops and banks would close at midday. Supposedly to let people pray in the afternoon or go to church.

Pity it isn't still like this, gone are the days of family time, all the shops are open and money is the motivation.

Maybe they should practiced archery instead, I wonder what the council and police would have thought about that?

Honestly they should make more regulation football deal with tactically challenging features..

As a teenager I grew up in Knightswood close to Tempke Park. The pitches were black ash and I still carry bits of it in my elbows and knees. Adjacent to the black ash pitches was a strip of grass just wide enough to play five aside. There was a sign that said No Ball Games but we played anyway enjoying the grass beneath our feet as we passed the ball around and made fearless tackles without losing the skin off our bums. They proceeded to round us up taking our names and addresses. I was taught never to lie and as a consequence I and my friends were summonses to court a few weeks later. I think we were fined 30 shillings which in the mid/late 60’s was a lot of money. Just as well I delivered milk before I went to skill as my parents didn’t have the money to pay the fine. Out of nowhere came three or four Plods, one of Tge people who lived across the street must have called them.

Insane.

If the council were so against people playing... then why are the goalposts still there?! Those teams can't play on other days due to work, so the pitches were pointless.
