picture on the main site got me thinking back to my childhood (long time)
my dad taught me you had have your eyes open when you head the ball. to stop me closing my eyes he hung a casey by the laces from the washing line and made me stand there heading the ball until i did with my eyes open.

Was i abused and is it the possible root of all my problems can i sue him

at the moment of impact you blink without realising

in my recollection you never got close enough to the ball to actually head it

[thegazelle]

i was frightened of the flipping thing after heading a wet casey for six years non stop

[SW]

Christ your Dad made you headbut Gerry Casey!

You were abused Gazelle.

[jiminlondon]

i was frightened of it too but mainly because i was rubbish
i remember playing on wet days at primary school when you couldnt move the ball it got so heavy

Primary School was a real breeding ground for the future development of serial killers, rapists etc, how cruel are 10 year olds?

Fortunately, I once scored with a header at that age, bit flukely as it hurt my nose and eye socket but it made me a cult hero for at least a week. Lymm Statham it was against, we all hated them.................I now have no recall at all why?

SW, great days in the classic green and black stripes of Moorlands!!

I was / still am (despite playing in goals) a header when possible, like instead of catching and throwing a shot, head it back out ot our right winger, works a treat

Usa Alty, time has dimmed your memory. Moorlands kit was green and white quarters, and the change kit was amber and black stripes. Perhaps it got changed after I left?

That's nothing gazelle..you were lucky...my dad would come home from the pub pissed at midnight, drag me out of bed, hang me upside down on the washing line and then smash a leather casey soaked in water against my forehead until I kept my eyes open and would then leave me there all night. You had it easy mate.

Thats nothing my father used to wake me up before i had gone to sleep hang me naked on the washing line and have my mother bang a casey covered in fox piss at me untill he got back from the pub when he would send me to work without  a breakfast and i tell you we were thankful

I love the four yorkshiremen sketch

[thegazelle]

SW, there is no doubt time has dimmed my memory but now you come to mention it the green and black was a brand new kit my last year, so you are right it must have changed.   I remember how keen the games teacher (Mr Cottis?) was to keep an eye on every new shirt after games!!
