Well done Trav, exalted.
Having not had a particularly distinguished school sports career (falling over after leading the circular race til the last will always burn) my proudest sporting moment would probably have been doing the Great North Run in 2004 in memory of my Dad, raising 250 quid for charity in the process. It was a very emotional day and I still can't believe I did it.

Well done and congrats to you Trav for the 20k  I'd say my most proudest sporting moment was representing England schoolboys at national level (football). Though a curling free kick to win a tournament in Garston back in the day would be up there! Wow Liam!!  Where did it all go wrong? Surely you'd be good enough with one leg to represent Watford now?  |

It was a very emotional day and I still can't believe I did it. It sounds like quite a day mate.  Think I'll have to start running again once I move into less physical employment. I have a mate who runs but only in patches; his weight balloons, he acts on it then gives up on a rotational basis. His mentality is always either Waller-esque or akin to that of Brain Jacks......it's currently the latter. He's probably jogging down the canal in a bin bag as I type! ;D |

A combination of moving house/drinking and injuries! As I'm typing this I see someone I know scored for QPR! |

Congrats you old git  Proudest sporting moment.. When I scored for my uni footy team against Northumbria from about 1 yard out ;d And when did age become relevant to this thread!!  Just bear in mind that you won't be a teen for much longer! Does that make you the Ewok of the uni side? ;D No but then again I'm not as close to the half century mark Are you suggesting I'm shit?!  Well if you are then you'd be right but I'm not built like a brick shithouse.. but I do have the same aversion to headers as he does ;d |

Well with his accuracy, you aren't in any danger And you've seen the best of him!! ;D Well I'm reliably informed by an expert of the lower leagues that Wokky is a proven goalscorer at this and Championship level. But then again, he is a Yeovil fan ;d |

Technological advances within the building trade at such a quiet backwater are probably insufficient to make building a state of the art stand with seats, roof and capacity of 5000+ anything more than a mere pipe dream!! ;D |

Despite being completely broke and have a tiny budget that only allows them to have around 17 professional players at the club, they are building a new 15,000 seater stadium. I offered to send them a great package, full of common sense and with a free reality check but Ben said no. It's FREE!! |
