Reading the youth cup thread and realising the first youth cup game I went to was 14 years ago when we beat Sheff Utd 6-0. Some of that team are in their 30s. That team included Shelvey, Solly and Wagstaff.

When you realise your first youth cup game was 35 years ago and the players are in their 50's...

And some have grandsons who are professional footballers?...
When you watch a fa youth cup game, see someone called Hinshelwood is playing for the opposition and can remember both a Martin and Paul Hinshelwood playing for Palace.
And then realising that the kid playing for Brighton is actually the grandson of Paul!
I'm not sure how long this has been going on as it is quite subliminal, but I've recently realised that my donning trousers routine includes getting into position with good balance followed by the words 1, 2, 3, Aaeee up-arrh.
It's a bit like performing a circus trick. The 1 2 3 replacing a drum roll and the up-arrh a smart rap on the hi hat symbol as my foot appears at the other end. Not really a problem at home, but if I've been doing this at the swimming baths there may have been a few raised eyebrows in adjacent cubicles.
When you kick a football that rolls your way back to some kids, resulting in most bones in your body hurting.
Last time I did that I nonchalantly hit the sweet spot with little effort and it went back like a rocket straight at one of the young kids that were playing football…. then told them to go and play somewhere else…you know you’re getting old when… .

You go to the gym for the 1st time since lockdown and can't even manage an hour. Cancelled my membership when they first reopened as I hadn't been jabbed and felt uneasy going, then managed to tear my rotator cuff muscle. Re-joined yesterday. Glad I've started again but am fucked.

Team of the 90's.
