Following on from the 'drunk ref' thread I happened upon this the other day. Made me laugh so much I nearly passed out...

I used to play footie in a league that Stonewall entered a team into and they got put in our division. There was quite a debate pre-season about this with the league officials. I'm going back a few years now.
But you can imagine the p**s taking - we didn't have to share changing rooms at our place, but erm, showers.
Now, I played with some tough characters and the first game was a pretty close affair. In the changing room after, there was much banter about who was going in the shower first, anyway, eventually we drifted in and guess what, there was the usual banter, jokes and laughs - or rucks - you would have with any other team/players post match, although the banter was a bit more risque than normal to start with, but these weren't a bunch of stereotypical effeminate guys, far from it.
I don't think anyone gave the situation another thought after that first game, just how we were going to beat them.
We had a deaf team in the league too - Clapham Deaf they were called, the ref had to wave a white hanky as well as blow a whistle, funny thing is that on the pitch, they made more noise than we did. They were horrible bastards, and good. All the other teams claimed they were playing ringers (not as in bells)!!!

Talk is cheap
Used to play in West Middlesex league, one of the teams were the screws from Feltham Remand Centre (the one in the news for bullying/suicides etc). Scary scary place, away game at their place we had to be searched in and out of the place, changing rooms had inmates wandering around in them washing the floors etc.
The screws were twice our size and hard as you can imagine, they had the inmates running the lines who were giving us all sorts of far-fetched decisions, other inmates that were allowed to watch in another fenced off area were cheering us on like it was the FA Cup final. Drew one season there and lost the next.
2 hours in there and couldn't wait to get out
