Played on a pitch this afternoon that was dead grass all over the top of it (rather surprising given the amount of rain in Sydney in the last 12 months!!!) and the soil was hard and compacted like concrete. Gashed my right knee open in a save this afternoon that I just know is now going to start the vicious cycle of knee gashes. It'll heal for a couple of days, I'll re-open it at training on Wednesday nights, only for it to begin scabbing over again, then re-rip it open that Saturday.
One of the few things I didn't miss about not playing. :lol: Try being a goalkeeper on those pitches, usually the layer off grass has been worn off around the goalmouth.

A few years ago some bright spark decided that gravel would fix the holes in some of the grounds in my association. Thankfully the gravel has long been removed.

Just went for a run, didn't bother putting any gloves on and now my fingers are all seized up and I can barely type.

WGMG: Not having a job. I really need money and no one will hire me. Found these awesome Macbeth shoes on the Internet and I don't have the money to buy them :(

Well done SSFA Your being a bit harsh on the SSFA. The council is in charge of the grounds and is usually the one that does stupid things to destroy grounds like deciding to mow when the fields are more like swimming pools and then dumping piles of sand all over the field.

My home ground has a fucking uncovered cricket pitch in the middle of it.

WGMG: People trying to force me to drink. I don't like alcohol in general, I've had bad experiences with people who drink it. Just let me be.

WGMG: I have scoliosis which makes my lower ribs flare out and I also have pectus excavatum, so my entire ribcage is fucked up. I hate it, it's all I think about and it's destroyed my confidence. I'd give anything to have a normal chest :(

WGMG: Feeling really crap today. Not sure why. WAGMG: Football was cancelled even though the weather's good and the grounds aren't even too bad. Probably would've been the only thing to put me in a good mood.

Seeing a doctor next week to hopefully get a referral to a cardiothoracic surgeon to discuss having it fixed.

Thanks, me too. If I get surgery I'll have to stop work and uni for 6 months and probably go back to live with my parents while I recover but I'm prepared to do anything.

 Like that, but my ribs flare out more. If I can't get surgery on it I might go jump off a bridge or something. EDIT: Also, I have a bit more muscle than him. When I flex my abs it sort of pulls the ribs in a bit but the dent in the sternum is still there :( Edited by ual: 15/5/2012 05:53:00 PM

It doesn't affect me physiologically (before I developed ITBS I could run half marathons on consecutive days easily) but it looks terrible and affects me psychologically. I'm not scared of surgery nor am I scared of the pain, I just want it fixed.

WGMG: I twisted my ankle, hurts a lot. I was running at school when I didn't realise there was was a bit of an uneven bit, which I turned and went back at the same time, ended up in sick bay.
