Now, I once took a youth team to a game, an away game, and the convoy of cars, there were about four of us, four cars, each with about two or three or four players, young players, in each car, got separated.
And the back two cars didn't know where they were going.
They hadn't bothered to get an address or anything.
They were just going to follow the car in front.
There's a lot of this goes on on a Sunday morning.
So we got to the ground and there were six of us, my team.
There were six of us, a goalkeeper and five players.
And we figured that, well, they'll find us eventually.
But the ref said, I'm not going to stall the game.
It's a 10 o'clock kickoff and it's a 10 o'clock kickoff.
And we said, well, there's only six of us.
The team that we were playing were better than us anyway.
So we expected to lose 3 or 4-0, which is quite a close game in junior football sometimes, but anyway.
However, this is what happened.
I swear, this is what happened.
