Capital 2 2010

it is indeed, that I know of. There may have been more instances.
As far as I know, a ref didn't turn up for Tawa B - University on match day #1.

Predict .... Uni 1 Marist 2 (We've should have a pretty good squad out there tomorrow). MaristOwl2010-04-16 21:50:16

1 All draw between Marist and Uni.

One stunning save a piece by each keeper to keep the game at 1 all. A good result for Marist considering they played the last 15 minutes with 10 men due to an injury after making their 3 subs.

Also Uni lucky not to be down to 10 men after one of their players nearly pulled the shirt off one of our players, in front of the ref who gave the free kick, but then bottled and didn't give the player his second yellow card!

Results and table following the weekend. The two Uni sides have established themselves as the teams to beat.CAPITAL 2:

Olympic __ Stop Out __ Wakefield 2 (2.30); 3-1
Marist __ Tawa A __ Kilbirnie (12.30); 1-1
University 1st XI _ Upper Hutt City __ POSTPONED;
Tawa B __ Uni Gossies __ Kura (2.30); 2-2
Karori Vistas __ Wellington United __ Karori 2 (2.30); 0-2

To start the ball rolling or so to speak. Predicting a fairly close round
Uni have started strongly I suppose the challenge for them is can they make it
last the whole season and not just the first couple of months.

Marist 3 Tawa A 1

Tawa B 0 Uni Gossies 3

Stop Out 0 Marist 2.  Good competitive game on a cracking surface at Hutt Park. Stop Out weren't happy with the offside flag not going up for our goals, in particular our second one, but you win some you lose some (esp without linesmen). Happy with how things are coming together for our lads. Getting better week by week and feel we can still develop further in the coming weeks. Great we switched on early this week, as in previous weeks we have taken some time to get into the game.

Two draws for the Uni sides this week has opening up the ladder now, so we are happy to be 3 points off Gossies now!

Updated results and table:

Anyone got any idea what the draw is for next week?

good result for Karori

Surprising results in the last couple of weeks for the Vista's burgling a couple of draws

Im picking one of the Uni teams and Marist to push for places in Cap 1 next season. Ive seen a few teams in Cap2 and so far i dont think anyone else will be able to compete at Cap1.

that's actually not a silly thing to say. I think the level of the league is not as high as last year. Of course I am very pleased with the club's results so far, but last year it was a tougher affair.

a.        Win the grade and you won�t have a problem

b.       Island Bay will come down either through losing Cap 1 or losing Prem

c.        BNU will be last or second last and they are a first team

d.       Move to a big club.

Having played both Cap 1 and Cap 2 there is very little difference in the leagues except for the top couple of teams in Cap 1. If you finish top of Cap 2 or win the promo match you deffinatley deserve promotion

Worried much?

Back in 06 when i was playing Cap2 it seemed a lot stronger than it is now. But i cant really comment seeing as I havnt played Cap 2 since then. Cap3 now is pretty piss weak though...

Ive played 20mins this season due to injury, and only because we were short on the bench one week. Otherwise im not yet playing, and only training every other week when im not limping...

Otherwise Id be in Cap1.

lets be honest if island bay hadn't stacked their team in the play-off game v tawa last year... then tawa would be in cap1.. and would not look out of place - island bay havn't picked up a point ffs...

both tawa teams to win this week.... will be exciting to see them play against each other...

who gary v geoffry,  we all know geoff's the better footballer so he'll win easy

Really?

The 3rds would throw the game. Not something that a club would like to admit to but i think any club would do it if put in that situation. Or you could decide after the result whos who.

In theory yes the 2nds should be beating us when you look at their players, but looking at results it should be a tight game. From what I hear the 2nds are currently losing 2-1 to Stop Out and we beat Olympic 3 nil today. Not very good for the 2nds and a good result for us so game on! We are only getting better each week.

Hopefully it doesn't come down to that but if it did I wouldn't be so sure that the game would be thrown. I know a number of players (myself included) that would not want to do such a thing, I'd rather not play that week.

Anyway for such a scenario to happen a) we would have to play each other in the last game or two in the season, b) The 2nds would actually have to be in with a chance of promotion and c) The 3rds would have to have nothing to play for.
