Grim Reaper 186 Posted July 11, 2004 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/oxfordshire/3884123.stm So this blind dude is going pilot himself around the UK in a light aircraft... Pity he's taking a co-pilot to "check that the information from the computer is correct" ! He's obviously a pretty active guy as he's also captain of the England blind football team - which got me wondering...how good is the English blind football team ? - you don't get a lot of coverage of them on Sky Sports. How does the keeper get on in the blind game? I cant imagine that penalty saves are that common. I wonder if for the crucial Euro blind championship England games the referee also has to be blind...in the much same way as he has to be for sighted games...

Teddy 21 Posted July 11, 2004 How does the keeper get on in the blind game? I cant imagine that penalty saves are that common. I understand in the England v Portugal matches, the keeper isn't required to make any saves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Typhoid Harry 23 Posted July 11, 2004 I'm still crying in my beer over Greece vs. Portugal, 80 to 1 odds and I never made a bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
