Indoor or outdoor? Used to play on the indoor wooden ones at Eldon Square and the best sort of things to use on knees and elbows were skateboarders pads. Even ended up having to use a cricket thighpad to help with a chipped bone on my hip.

If it's outdoors stop being a faggot. Scars are a sign of a man.

its the outdoor games that are ruining it
its on old style astroturf
the short carpet with sand on kinda astro turf
play on that every wednesday which takes a nice chunk off my knee, which heals over nicely enough to rip off on the better turf ( soccarena ) on a monday
which is what happenned last night
ive found some proper kneepads for under a tenner online which look ok so im gonna try them i think

Where are these pads? I have the same problem. Was going to pick up some Adidas ones in Japan but they were £20+ a pad!

type KNEE in the search box up the top and click search
then scroll to the bottom mate

the reusch and the nike ones both under a tenner
delivery charge is ok too
i think that price is for ONE pad though? not 100% certain
im gonna order 2 just incase - and the rate i get through goaly-pants i will probably need a spare pair anyway!

if you had a good defence in front of you you wouldnt have to do any diving about..

have you got a hat like Petr Chech ??

Pell · 11th May 2010, 04:19 PM

last wednesday i had no defence at all
was constantly 4 v 1 :D i enjoyed it though, makes saving them a lot more satisfying
my defence on a monday night is super though but everyone gets excited n pushed forward and we get caught on the break a lot boooooooo hissssss

nah my hat is more like trevor mcdonald curled up naked n layed on my head
