Capital 16 2010

14-3?  What a game

Never a dull moment in a slayers match. We really should be televised :)

Yes your games should be televised. Be better then watching those crap canes on tv.

I took them 12 and under in my virtual slayers comp so just snuck in there...

lol our game was enjoyable we had like 40shots unfortunatly only about two were on target.

Nighthawks vs Destroyers - sounds like a military maneouvre.

Well the pitches have crators on them so maybe it could be.

I got some new boots, better fit, so these won't kill my feet on Saturday!

pints 1-0 over uni cyles gud result for us.

That's a great result.

We beat the Destroyers 3-0.  Good spriits. Good game.

i believe we ended up 2-2 with upper hutt. good game, bloody hot. 

Did they have a bald guy and a guy with yellow boots up front?

Yeah.  Bald guy pretty handy.

Nice result for you as well Special One.

A GREAT game

any teams in this league have room for an extra player? Very sorry about the late notice!! I have just managed to secure myself a job so I am looking to get back into the footy asap :) any help with this would be great!

I'm sure theres some clubs that wouldn't mind an extra player email round the clubs http://www.soccer.org.nz/ in the contacts section of this site. I just selected the first club on the list which just happend to be brooklyn.

Comedy at MacAlister this week.

We're on before you guys ducky.

Post of the day

Great whats MacAlister park like surfacewise? Myt be able to have some beers after the game ( or b4). Also what is the deal with promotion in this league?

This time of year like concrete, rain tonight might soften it.  It is a cricket ground so every chance of a wicket block in the middle of the pitches.

Top two up in theory, but this grade gets a bit weird because there are always some new sides to football that join and when they start thumping sides 8-0 every week they get moved by the club the following season or even Capital football.

For instance Tawa AC got swapped after 6 or 7 rounds last year and moved to Cap 9.  Then the Karori Kittenz won the grade and the club moved them in to another gap (cap 12 ?).  I think the United Legends have jumped as well.

I was hoping there might be enough teams that we could have split the grade and kept the eight who were competitive last year together at least the new teams claw and fight each other.  Iin the end I think the only team that came down were the Vauxhalls who you guys play this week, and the only ones who just went up one division were the Olympic side in 15. 

There is a cap 15 game on at the same time as us I think.

Our team is pritty terrible but me and my friend enjoy the social aspect/drinking although if we were fit we probly should be playing at least capital 5 or higher. Last week we scored early off a corner so i just played centre back the whole game and grinded out a 1-0 even though they were all over us possession wise they kept on trying to play through balls and on the hard ground it just runs through to the keeper.

We are going to try this every week and see if we can grind our way to the top lol.

You'll run in to some good sides among the new ones, and Porirua are all young and keep running and running and running.

We'll have to get you hammered pre-game when/if you come to Naenae.

haha most of  the team a hammered pre-game anyway. 

Is Eddy playing ?

Been a few weeks since he's been in here.

We have played two games on Macallister so far this seasonand it is is concrete- but is a good surface- lots of grass and smooth & it is orientated east-west this year so that mitigates the wind a bit
Yes, two cricket pitches in each corner make it very slippery, doubt the rain tonight will do much

yeah hes a top bloke. hes like in charge of the team he plays 20 minutes at the start of the game and then 20minutes after half time.

That's more than I managed last week.

Tell him to bring a Cider for me as I'll need it if I get on this week.

Will do.

Rain today, hopefully make the grounds a bit softer for tomorrow. Not sure how much though, grounds are like concrete.

Nighthawks pull out a 4-0 victory today.

How did the other teams go?

argh just could'nt get the winner  i opened the scoring and they scored  a quality header to equalise. 1-1

The walk across the pitch to say hi a walk to far ?

Indian Sports lads good guys.  Mostly Hockey and Rugby players trying football for a change, but really buying in to the Cap 16 spirit.

We've got Uni Cycles this week.  No idea if they are the same squad as last year, beat us on one of the worst days in Wellington football history last year at Ngatitoa.

I think the uni cycles team was the same as last year. it was two weeks (?) ago but I have forgotten.

Was nice of the Porirua boys to help us out with our goal, they nearly put a few more in for us too. had our own chances but all for naught this week.

Softie. It was just a light breeze if I recall that day correctly.

This weeks game between Seatoun and Porirua will be interesting

Having the misfortune of having to play against both already this year I think that Seatoun were slightly better (even though Porirua scored more against us)

Seatoun will definately benefit from playing up several more grades as I don't think they grasp the concept that some of us are just out to enjoy ourselves.
