Capital 9 - 2014 - Relegation avoidance

nah he is rego'd to Vic Uni..

In my defence, I wasn't playing serious football that year.

I heard a rumor that the mighty nighthawks are unleashing a secret weapon on the field tonight! Apparently a talent like never before seen in the dizzying heights of cap9.........

You mean a tubby donkey who struggles to lift his clipboard?

lift a clipboard?!  That's what his manager is for. He has been putting in the hard yards of late & this morning before brekky he was back under the 100kg mark....just

BEFORE breakfast.

If only he had knees.

Huge result for Salmon on Saturday- taking down league leaders Karori Aces 4-1, setting up a nice relegation dog fight with Phat Boys this weekend

We were within seconds of getting a second draw out of Brooklyn.  1-1 until our keeper palmed one and then in a paniced clearance it ended in our own net.

Any truth that the Olympic (AKA??) team dumped out of the league for being tossers have just moved into another Olympic team?

No.  Not a word.  Just glad they aren't in our division :-)

Yeah we go okay these days Salmon.  Just have moments.  It does depend on midfielders.  We have lost three first choice to out of Wellington transfers.  If some/any of them are back in town we're much more solid.  Boxey can't do it all on his own

Good game last night Hard News-obviously my positivity is bouyed by the fact we won, but even if we hadn't it was played in good spirits, well reffed and plenty of opportuntiy for LoLs

Cheers

Yeah.  Good giggles.

I still demand the credit for an assist on your third.

I played today. Nighthawks (1) v Chuggers (4).

Ran on the pitch and some dude chuckled that a chick was playing.

Debut 10 minutes. 100% pass completion.  (2 passes). 2 throw ins.  No goals conceded while I was on the pitch.  I was WELL out of position.  Meh.

My lungs hurt.

Well done, Simone from the Wgtn Utd sapphires will be playing in our end of season friendly vs Sunday Blazers, so it could be the start of a mixed gender trend set in the middle divisions

Our Petone team has been popped in to Capital 9 this year. From the dizzying heights of Capital 15 (new team last year). Looking forward to the start of the season, we have Island Bay Hotspur up first.

I think I recall playing against your team Salmon07, not last season but the one before I played for the Petone Chuggers.

But this year we're basically semi-pro, we had a training last night and ran some drills. Serious.

So you have replaced the Chuggers or merged with the Chuggers?

Nah the Chuggers are still going, they're in Capital 8 I think. We managed to jump in to Capital 9 because the other Petone team (forget their name?) have gone to masters.

I just wanted to start a team with my mates, hence the leaving the Chuggers and new team.

So, what's the league like? Who are the ones to watch?  

Are the Stonecutters still going?

Keep an eye on the Nighthawks when you play them at Naenae. Also, keep an eye on your belongings.

Yeah, they're in 8 with the Chuggers.

We spotted the Chuggers training the other week and were going to protest.

With 2 up, 2 down and you guys there won't be much the same.  If anything we're down a bit on strength with some departures from Welly and a couple of impending kiddies.  Kind of on a mini recruitment drive.

Have you got the latest list of teams?

Here's the teams and first round of games:

Salmon, Unicorns, us and Stop Out the only returnees.

Assume Porirua is a team of youngsters we used to play further down but they would have jumped a few divisions.

Likewise Hotspur were same grade as us and have climbed.

Behave tegal haha. They got plenty of players and coaches who actually turn up to do just that....amazing

Sorry not too sure what you mean or what you thought I meant. 

I doubt he know what he meant or thought he meant either.

I wonder if he knows what he meant or thought he meant.

I meant what I said and what I said is what I meant so now you should all know what I meant but if you don't know what I meant then read what I said.

This.

Salmon will be a different fish-first season in 14 years that I won't be with them, but as long as our young fellers return they'll be alright.

Unicorns can be dangerous if they bother turning up-Stop Out were always tough-one of the better team, Naenae were similar in skill level to Salmon.

As long as everyone plays nice and remembers its for a bit of fun then it should be a good season eh
Good luck
