Team Wellington... no longer an association with Ole. Chur

How did Quasimodo go at the weekend for Welly? was fairly average against Otago.

So get on down there footy fans, it looks like a good double header. Should be a cracking main game with a lot at stake.

Does The Phoenix has more Wellington winter clubs represented in its squad than team wellington does? 

Watson signs for Phoenix-yet spent alot of TW time sitting on bench! Hmmmmm

A small thought to ponder when the nix train 3 x a week what none nix players make up the 11v11 games.

Add to that 3 x team trainings of their own. Just my thought. Effort is most expended in which teams training.

Info 2nd hand from friends who have seen the training. I will stand corrected if this is wrong. 

Might rain.  I'm out.

That was great game. Both teams had plenty of chances and some really good goals by both teams. Faarodo has a goal disallowed for offside...super close from where I was standing.  

Man, Kamo and Clapham like to whine though.

But clearly not as much as he thinks he does! Unless of course its a gingerism thing

It was entertaining but pretty awful football from both sides.

By far?? Charlie Henry (and me) would disagree

I suppose you think an own goal and two clear missed chances makes for a good player.

??? He scored two goals (one a screamer) and was a constant threat.

Why exactly was Clapham the best on the field? 

Home from a long day. TW run out 4-1 winners over Wanderers FC after a plane delayed game.

And Waitak play Canty this week? so we are guarenteed a play off? Well done

I think it would be great for the League for Waitakere not to make the play offs. I know that's a hard thing to justify but I actually want to see a different team in the O League and I also think that Waitakere deserves to have their mickey mouse structure (CEO, coaches, funding, facilities) come crashing down. Also they must have the worst discipline this year. How may times has Chad been tossed? Chuck in 1 for Cardozo, Shelley..... Just a pack of muppets. Say what you like about Rex but Waitakere were a mile better under his watch across the board.

I actually hope that TW make it. I think it would help attract some players in Wellington that chose not to play, to get back out there from summer. I know Gareth Rowe in Canty was always against summer football because he could not be assed with it but when you know you will be in the O League, that may help some Welly guys say 'I want to be in that' and thus make themselves available.

From memory, last time Waitak did miss out they had the Cardozo's playing for them as well (and Shannon Cole).

You sir, are absolutely correct.

For the bonus point, what season and who was the coach.

2005/06 

Steve Cain

Couldnt even make playoffs when it was a top5 that year 

Only time Otago Utd/Southern Utd have made playoffs as well

Did you say season 2? Well you would be correct (if you did)

on paper, waitak have a very strong first xi

they must be doing a heck of a lot wrong to be int he position they are in

I watched them play at Douglas Field that season, before they built the stand, I don't think it was against Team Wellington. 

Kept getting Wylie and Cole mixed up.

Live at the Petone Arena I see today in @dompost?

I previewed this weekend's game between Team Welly and WaiBOP, and also researched whether momentum matters going into the ASB Prem playoffs - Do sides who lose their last round encounter struggle in the semifinals?
