π’π΅βͺ BEHIND THE SCENES | IT'S NOT ALL FOOTBALL! βͺπ΅π’
Whilst we are always looking at ways to improve Blyth Town FC Over 40s, both on and off the field, there is something you don't always get to see...
We're a really close group of players β but more importantly, we're friends, FOOTBALL FRIENDS. β€οΈ
And, as you can probably imagine when you put a group of lads like us together, there are plenty of laughs, banter and more than our fair share of mickey-taking! π
Some of the banter has even resulted in nicknames, and in some cases, players are now better known by those nicknames than their actual names and there's a lot of stories! π€£
It's all meant in good fun, and it's a big part of what makes this group what it is. We can give each other plenty of stick, but when it comes to stepping over that white line, we're all pulling in the same direction. πππ€
So, whilst you see the goals, saves, tackles and results on a Saturday, we thought we'd share a little bit of the other side of Blyth Town Over 40s...
And because we're all of a certain age, we thought we'd do it in a format that many of us grew up enjoying! π
πΈ The funny thoughts/moments captured in images!
We haven't quite collected all our stickers yet, but we're working on it and will hopefully have the full collection together as soon as possible! π
And if anyone is on the lookout for any particular ones, keep your eyes peeled... we might have a few swapsies! ππ€£. So here is the incomplete page, and a closer look at a few to amuse you.
Hopefully you'll enjoy these as much as we enjoyed putting them together. They give you a little glimpse into our banter, the characters in the group and some of the moments that have helped make this team so close.
Welcome to the Blyth Town Over 40s dressing room... π
There may be a few stories that are better left untold though, because as they say...
Whatever happens in the changing room, stays in the changing room! ππ€£
