Southern Football (incl Southern United)

your welcome as well Scotty

Walk on cock

Squeeze me just a bit harder, you know I love it rough 

Manawatu are gone and Otago is next on the block. Nelson and South Auckland making strong bids via the youth league. We need this Southern United team to do well to ensure national league stays in town. At the moment it looks as if the lack of experience in both the coaches and the players will be a major hurdle. It is not an impossible mission but things need to come together faster than what they appear to be.The Canterbury pre-season game will be a good indicator of how things are coming together. The Otago region can't afford to have Southern United get last to give NZF justification for the axe. A class stadium will only get you so far. Batty being no.2 is not a good indicator of how the coaches see the game. I am sure that will change. This season may well be make or break people.

Whats this #1 keep like?

Batty>Little>Brazilian Keeper

Tom Batty - Great distributor, good kicking game, cat like reflexes, great shot stopper. Has to be the number 1 between the sticks 

Tommy will be #1 miles better than Uni keeper. Can only see southern getting the wooden spoon by a country mile.

Sorry to say it but sounds like Uni playing under the southern name, that will only put supporters off and bye bye summer league

Any training game this weekend?

Yes 10:30 at Tahuna park 

Might pop along , could do with a good laugh

How did Logan wrightwebb get a contract?? Wow someone's handing contracts out on George street by the soundsof it. Fair play to him but that's ridiculous!! Training game should be a good watch...

i find it bizarre what is happening down there

when your best players played for you, you got spanked, so this new coach comes in from fuck knows where and brings in a bunch of players two layers below the bunch who got spanked and compliments them with an elderly cameroonian, a traveling sinagaorian and a couple of brazilians who used to play for corinthians.  90% of brazil used to play for corinthians.

Roslyn are still deciding whether to appointment Richard Murray or continue with current coach Sam Mepham

Was a pity to see S.U struggle against a makeshift team today, was a bigger pity to see how horrible that Low guy was.  

With the score 7-3 hard to tell what SU will be like come ASB game one.

Did either side try to play with a solid defensive line up or is this the Samba [Keegans Newcastle] style coming out.

TBG's Aaron Burgess confirmed as Dunedin Technical head coach, assistant & backroom staff to be finalised in the coming weeks

Southern donkeys, will try get to the game in wellington, witness a real massacre. Could be an embarasing season for SU , 5points would be a good target

Mosgiel won the Lotto U19s held in Christchurch over the weekend.

Well done to Mosgiel on winning the final 2 nil over Nomads with a goal in each half.

Mosgiel the better team all over the park and played the last 25 mins with 10 after a player got [looked like] a double yellow card, must have been one for the tackle and one for back chat.

Nomads should have grabbed an equaliser early in the second half but blasted over when it looked harder to miss than score.

Riley in goal for Mosgiel got a ear full from the spectators behind his goal for the whole of the second half, well done son for not getting involved you had the last laugh on those that didn't make the grade.

Enjoy the trip home.

From ASB Premiership website:

Funny when you read the above story from the ASB Prem website sounds like Tom Batty has jjust move south to play in the ASB, rather than having been down their for most of 2013.  

So 5 of their former best players are out for this year.Could be a long season for some young players.

AW82

Are you getting to Timaru for the game next weekend?

Cannot make it as will be at ASB Park watching The Pride take on Auckland in the Women's League.

Not really as always interested what his happening down south, we need the whole of South Island footy to be strong, oh for the return of the fromer Southern League.

What time is lick-off on Saturday as may be able to make on Saturday.

No hope in hell
