I remember the second one in 2010 because I played - found the shirt in a box a few weeks back, slightly snug fit these days

Looks like that was great fun

Wow look how much smaller it all is then - the fence looks so close! 

And the state of the food offerings...

I also remember reading about this on here beforehand but competent slipped my mind when I got there. My first year, good times

Yeah. I watched as I couldn't be arsed playing. They raised lots of cash and I still have a badge somewhere.

issues:-

the players risk injuring themselves (twisted ankle)and spoiling their festival

- the grass can't be cut cos the festival won't allow it.

Still have my jersey from 2010. Great times.

09 was easier. Heat in 2010 was tough going, on a hangover too.

I was watching. Was that the year Hobo Jones played as well?

From what I remember Hobo Jones tried playing in 2010 and got cut off by the Pyramid PA firing up. Also Michael was meant to come down and present the World Cup but the future King of England stopped by the site

Good memory, I'd forgotten that, also Attila the stockbroker dropped by too. 🙂

Think so, I was watching the Hobos without really knowing what the football was all about!
