Back to the football.

"Jumpers for goalposts" reminds me of something.

A few years ago I remember seeing a collection of German students in the UK, deciding to have a game of football.

I was amazed when they started to pace out the pitch, halfway lines and the goals. They then picked out two teams of eleven players only and appointed a ref and linespersons. They did use jumpers for goal post however.

Informal games I was used to, only used jumpers for goal posts, or "jackets doon" as they say in Scotland. That however, was the extent of the organisation required.
