Newbie: My 1988 JDM Convertible

I'm friendly with both of those guys.

We drove via touring bus to Manchester so I imagine we passed through Coventry.

 

Not a problem at all!

 

His name is Scott Meyer and he was the starting keeper for his NCAA D-1 collegiate team, SIUE. They travelled to the UK for matches organized by First Point. They played very well and were congratulated by a number of folks who viewed them to be the best American footballers they'd seen to that point in time. Their coach teaches the European style of play and pitch organization which is uncommon for American college programs.

He graduated recently and took steps to go professional. He was offered a position by an FC in Fort Lauderdale, FL, but decided he didn't want to live a life in hotels making little to no money for a chance that he'd MAYBE be called up to the MLS. All the while his non-footballer friends would be making money in business and moving on with life. I literally cried when he told me his decision. I still can't believe it. He was given such a gift, but life's circumstances conspired against him.

 

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention he got a private workout with FC Everton. They wanted him to stay for a week, but Everton was unable to work out the details with his college team before he left England. There are strict NCAA rules regarding amatuer vs. professional status so it was important to get some of that red tape ironed out first. He was then invited back to Everton for a time during the Christmas school break, but he injured the PCL in his kicking knee in November. For the remainder of the conference tournament he was in he had one of his backs take his goalkicks.

 

You're right! TOO MUCH THREAD JACKING!!!!

 

looks even better with the hood down!

 

If you really want my opinion it looks stupid sorry mate.

 

I'm glad you got it now

 

Now that look's very nice make an effort and get that kit.
