I also have coached an under 11s team, one day we had a game right next to the Lebanese border, To encourage the young ones I told them if they won, I would by all a creamy biscuit, but if they lost ,they had to buy me They won!!

Once I told this before, you have to use all your skills to win.

We had a game against a very good young team that play 11 a side ,we play 7 a side. Ok, the game started and after about 30 mins we were 3-1 down ,or 3-0. One young lad stood next to me and started asking ''Let me play,'' and again and again ,''let me play.''

I told him to go some 40 yards down the touch line and watch my hand signal ,telling him, to go on and play. I called one player at the other side of the field calling him to come here to me.(All eyes must have been watching him.) The player 40 yds down the line I waved ,to go on and play. As the player coming towards me, approached me I told him to shoot more and he went back on the field. So we were 12 against 11, nobody discovered that ,and we still lost!!
