was seen in the carpark...

Other highlights. Benjamin Totori's little dash after his goal. Hurts me to say this but good on ya for winding TW fans up.
The ref getting booed off at the end. Not often that I've heard that at matches in EnZed.


Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Benjamin Totori is the black Joel Griffiths.

Peter O'Leary's display today showed just why A-League officiating this season has been so poor.

Seeing a small mob of people hurling abuse at some very nervous refs - classic.

Gotta love the passion in this sport

I reckon TW are funding the side by selling sunglasses they find... mine were last seen at Newtown as well.

Two quite different comments from the coaches. Jacobs reckons they were unlucky and it was a close game and Milicich saying on the radio last night that TW had very little chance of winning the game and Waitakere were always in control of the game they just couldn't put TW away with poor finishing. What did you all see?

Milicich is more right than Jacobs.
 
TW had a couple of chances in the second half but otherwise, as far as I could see, were second best and would have been very lucky to nick it.
 
Totori is a c**t by the way, did I mention that?

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Yeah, would have been a travesty if we had won but they were the ones who butchered the other chances, hardly our fault.

Totori better be censured for that display, can't believe he wasn't carded.

What did Totori do?

Hardly worth a card News?  All he did was wind us up with a bit of celebrating.

Actually poor form us for not making a concerted effort to heckle him back.  We were very quiet yesterday!

Seen a guy, Alex Rae, get a yellow for celebrating a goal against Partick Thistle by winding up the Thistle fans. The fact that it was his second yellow, he got sent off and we won the game made it even funnier

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Provocation... it's against the rules.

Provoking the crowd is not a card-able offence.

Over-celebrating is but you couldn't really accuse him of that.

A reliable official suggested to me that he should have been booked, and that if the referee had been watching he would have been... bit of a theme of the day there.

Buffon you will get your chance in two weeks. Your lot have to try and stop the little sod from scoring. That is going to be the game of the year so far. Auckland vs Waitakere out West.

I have a real problem with kissing the shirt when it's believed you moved from Manawatu because someone offered you more money.

In fact, it was kind of fitting he missed the badge and kissed the Trusts logo...

He was watching. I checked for the ref's reaction rather than watching him prance about, O'Leary was looking right at him.

Fourth official moved towards him as if to caution him- Cardable? maybe But all good value for money for fans huh- the passions on show at the TW games by coaches and players are fantastic.
 
Best moments form the past few years include J Gould slapping his arse at us and Declan Edge falling over with apoplexy in the technical area-priceless!

When I saw Totori trotting down the running track I took particular note of where Peter O'leary was. He was on the far side of the pitch talking to the assistant referee. By the time he had got back to half way Totori was well and truely back on the field of play.
