Saturday - up about 0930, coffee and wait for the boss to get up, bowl of cerial, shower and dressed.
1030Hrs head down to the farmers market, get the necessary, she has a bacon and sausage roll, just plane burger only for me (pork and apple burger to be exact it is a farmers market after all so it;s not a greasy spoon deep fried beef offal one - well aware what goes into this one).
probs finished there about 1130, head back home via local deli to get a few bits and the local corner shop for copy of the paper.
Get home, pint of water whilst unpacking, get Football Focus on the telly.
About 1300Hrs Sainsbury's arrive with the shopping, get that in and unpacked - taking out 2 lucozade sports from the 4 pack that comes.
Bout 1330Hrs grab bag, head off to car and head to ground. Most games are with 30 / 45 mins of home.
1400Hrs (and no later) arrive and do the necessary with teams, pitches, nets, brief teams and KO at 1500Hrs.
For the proper bit - always 1Hr before minimum. Always.
I start at the top and work down - shirt, pockets, shorts, pockets, socks, boots, grab jacket and head out, generally on putch 30 before KO.
If not already met them, head over to each team / coach and tell them I'll be in for a chat in 10, if they can check that all jewllery is off, match sheets complete with correct numbers and balls are ready please.
THIS PUTS THE ONUS ON THEM TO SORT IT, YOU HAVE LAID YOUR CARDS ON THE TABLE SO THER ARE NO EXCUSES WHEN OU COME BACK!!!!
Pitch corner to corner, pace out the 10 yards to make sure it either is (or not) and that all lines seem straight, visible etc from varius positions on the pitch.
Warm up whilst checking bits - heel flicks to the 6, knee lifts to the 18, side stepping to the middle etc
head over to home team, grab sheet, and do YOUR jewllery checks etc. If you find anything - stern look at the coach / captain normally sets the scene! Give them their quick brief. captain - see you in the middle in 5 please.
The to the other team but see their captain in the middle in 2.
Get match ball, to middle doule check the time / watched / pockets, coin out and off we go.
