	Table Football Got spare money?

The Championship is coming up at work and my game is off form, I could do with some ideas

Here are some of my common moves

The Stepover - a great trick which time to master but if i get on top form I can fool about 90% of people with this, especially with my defenders

The Thru ball - a soft pass from the midfielder onto the waiting attackers who will direct the ball swiftly into the net, almost impossible for me to be consistant at this tho...

The Long ball - Defender plays it right down side of pitch going past all players to the 'slope' in the far corner, ball returns , and if lucky will be stopped dead by my attackers, who will promtly finish

The 'Oxley' Move - Whereby I pass the ball between my defender and goalkeeper and then suddenly shoot with the defender instead of passing back, giving much greater shot power and an element of suprise, can be combined with a stepover as well for the ultimate fool!. a trick i've seen nobody else so i'll be sure to use this one.

Anyone got any trademark moves that always seem to give a result, anyone else play in Championships here??
Cheers
Matt

The Reverse Thru ball - a soft pass from the attaquer onto the waiting midfielder who will shoot the ball directly into the net. To be used once in a game.

What is the Stepover ?

I'm sorry, but America has claimed ownership of the word "football" to represent our great game. You guys can have soccer. And there will be no negotiation. Our words are backed with Nuclear Weapons!

Look your "football" is for rugby players who can only operate in short bursts and can't tackle properly.

Oh and while I'm at it baseball is rubbish too

Sava has done an awful Threadjack here!

the Reverse Thruball sounds excellent Dave, I'll have to practice that so that the one-time move works!,Midfielders are the best players to score with.

Stepover, is when you geezer is aligned next to the ball,looking like he'll pass the ball sideways, when you move the player you move him just round the ball w/o touching it do a 3/4 circle so you're directly behind the ball and slam forwards, your opponent will have foolishly just moved his line of players along, maybe it's badly named but that what we call it anyway.

American Football is one crazy sport tho, it has me in fits of laughter every time i see it, how absurd it is to see one group of fellas charge over another group that dont even have the ball!

Great Team tho Sava
