Have you thought about playing walking football mate. That’s all I’d be good for nowadays

I couldn't cope with that, I'd forget and go on a dribble and then remember when my paper mache ankles snap lol
Pretty much 18 years since I played a game now, no sick pay and injuries dont mix, so made the hard choice to stop. I was 31yo, played daily from the age of 4, so much for exercise being good for you eh :)

Yeah heard of this guy before, he's done really well although obviously doesn't know when to quit.

I am still playing 7 a side and in tournaments at 38, and hope to play until I am in my 50s and 60s. I'm nowhere near as fast as I was but not sure if that's ageing or weight gain, or both lol. Still got the fast feet though.
