Anthony is doing the Match this year again. There is an article in the new Sky Magazine. He does a small interview. I hope he gets into the team again. There are 80 celebs trying out this time.

Hopefully Anthony will get in the squad, he is taking it very seriously, and has been training with a football coach.

He could have been a professional footballer, only for a serious knee injury.

The trials started this weekend. Yesterday 70 celebs were taking part, and today the 44 who were chosen after yesterday were playing two games at Oxford's ground.

After todays games, Graham Taylor was selecting his final squad of 21.

I thought there might be word today about how they got on yesterday, but so far there's nothing. I think Anthony will get through but it would be nice to hear how he did.

Margi

I thought we may have heard something today as well Nizzy, last year news leaked out in the press.

Hopefully Anthony will have got in the squad:hello:

Fingers crossed, Margi! He played so well last year I think he'd almost definitely get through but the competition for places is stiffer this year so it would be nice to know how things went. Hopefully we'll hear something soon.

Yes, the trials form this weekend are shown next Sunday. I'm not sure what time though!

Then next weekend they play 2 matches to whittle them down from 44 to 21.That is televised the weekend after next. They go abroad for a week after that to train , then they come back and the actual Match starts properly with the eliminations every night, leading up to the final....I think!

Margi

YES!!!
Anthony got through the first round of the trials,he played really well, and Graham Taylor said that if there were twenty players better than Anthony he would be very surprised.
So hopefully, he will get into the final squad to go to Newcastle.

Mikey didn't make it to the next round.

It seems that he will get into the squad, Graham Taylor seems to really like him:spin:

Graham Taylor really seems to rate Anthony. He never made a comment about anyone else to say they were likely to make the squad. Anthony looked to be in good form.

I thought Anthony looked a lot more relaxed and confident than he did last year. He made good friends with some of them last year so he will enjoy it more this time around as he will be able to have a laugh with people he knows.

So do I! :spin: I loved last nights episode. Leo was right cheesed off to get the boot! :laugh:

I think Anthony will make the starting eleven, but it is always nervewracking when GT says who's up!

BigSister

i keepforgetting to watch it grrrrrrrrrrrrr
Who has gone so far

Margi
03-10-2006, 08:30 PM
Leo went last night, and Michael Greco, James Hooton and Sam Robertson were put on the bench. I think maybe James will go tonight.

BigSister
03-10-2006, 09:51 PM
James went only because he had an injury:bawling: just waiting for the bench now

I usually have a good idea who will get the boot but I'm not sure out of those 3.

It was a shame for Hooten to go out the way he did but I don't think he'd have made starting 11 anyway. I'm glad the squad voted to save Sam. I like him, even if he does have a bit of an attitude sometimes!

BigSister
04-10-2006, 11:45 AM
yeah im not sure as well James thinks Rocky and i probably agree with him we shall se tonight
It was a shame about James though but he probably wouldnt have made final 11 like you said

I really love this series! I've enjoyed every minute of it. I'm so looking forward to going down to Newcastle for the final. I don't know what I'll do with myself next week when it is all over lol!

Anthony did really well to make the team again. It's a much stronger squad and competition for places was fierce. Well done Anthony! :hello: :spin2:

Margi

1-0 to the Legends at half-time.

Ian Rush the scorer.

LargeAndInCharge

kaz when did they kick off

Kaz
08-10-2006, 08:40 PM
I think it was at 8.30 p.m. .......... they're now on the half-time break and second half due to start very soon! :spin2:

Celebs started really well and could have scored in the first 5 minutes .... brilliant save from Andy Goram who's now gone off injured - replaced by Bruce Grobbelar.

Legends were in control for the last 20 minutes or so of the 1st half.

Let's hope Graham Taylor gives a good 'pep talk' and gets the Celebs fired up for the 2nd half. :thumbs:

Celebs were pretty much out-played in this one... and Harvey threw his toys out the pram when he was sent off. :shocked::hugesmile:

Anthony won celeb man-of-the-match again.

BigSister
09-10-2006, 02:43 PM
yeah i saw that well done Anthony

tropical_sunset
09-10-2006, 02:57 PM
Well deserved man of the match IMO!
The legends team were a bit younger this year tho, so could be why the celebs didnt do so well.

Margi
09-10-2006, 03:11 PM
I went to The Match last night, and had a great time. What a pity the celebs didn't score early on when they had control.

Harvey is a nutter, before he got sent off, he squared up to Colin Hendry, and Anthony was trying to separate them, which looked quite funny, as both of them are nearly twice the size of Anthony.

Well done to Anthony for winning man of the match again, he thoroughly deserved it:hello:

BigSister
09-10-2006, 03:14 PM
Yeah they showed that bit Margi and my mum was saying look at Anthomy seperating Colin Hendry

chrissie
10-10-2006, 10:29 PM
It was a great game, and it was good to be there, and give Anthony a big cheer. He deserved man of the match:hugesmile:

nizzy
11-10-2006, 10:21 PM
I was at the Match too and I'm really glad I went. Anthony is actually a really talented footballer. I'm glad he won the MOM because he certainly looked to be the best of the celebs on the day. I took loads of pics lol but a lot of them weren't very good. Here's some that turned out reasonably sharp!:spin2:
