Capital ONE

Come on the Dreamers (or possibly United).

First or second please.

so when is the big Bubble v Pope game?

To be honest our capital 2 team doesnt even train and they pretty quality at times. They actually like the league they r in at the moment so dont c them wanting to go to Capital One with such competitive teams. As for stacking teams, I think ull be seeing the likes of Wests and Lower Hutt stacking teams to avoid relegation from Champs pavlos82009-07-20 20:23:22

Next weekend - then possibly the bigger game depending on the result, the Pope v Waterslide game

Both at Fortress/Cow Paddock Kilbernie!

Seems Petone took that route that year, and from all accounts have had a pretty successful building year

I understand where your coming from in terms of confidence etc.. but also if a team from cap 1 gets promoted then your club will likely attract better player who want to play at champs premier quality as opposed to div 1.. and also for those players that get dropped from the 1st team, then its only a division below as opposed to dropping down two divisions to div one..

i think marist would do alright back in premier again, I don't think Olympic would though, they'd eventually self destruct. Unless they did what every other club did and stack their team.

Also won't who goes up and down depend on the Central League playoff system? What happens there?

olympic 2nd team would not come midtable pavlos 

If they recruited a couple more players ye they have the potential to compete.. Plus the first team will drop more of there players I believe to help out..

Ye but you see say if Marist got promoted, they wont attract as good a players as if Olympic 2nd team got promoted. Think about it ay. Would u rather play for marist in champs premier. Or Olympic 2nds in champs premier, with the possibility of working urself into the 1st team squad that plays central league. Thats all Im saying.. and no not all clubs can say they will recruit players, because say clubs may be more appealing than others. I have already been told by various players for champs premier clubs that they would come to Olympic and play if our 2nd team got promoted. So only time will tell.

Marist till the Green and White cows come home...but then I would say that...who else has the $2 shop, Chris behind the bar's happy demeanour and freshly made rolls on a saturday, The Lilting tones of Brian Blellock encouraging you from the sideline, Davie Sears Slippers and The Crow?...No one... not even the boys from west of the Hellespont. So there.

Just so you know bud, Olympic isn't as appealing as you make it out to be. You're clearly blinded by your passion and loyalty to the club which is fine but no need to sugar coat it and say every man and his dog will go there.

Yah was about to say the same  Nightz.

Wests and Lower Hutt's 2nd teams, both seemed to have been abandoned by their clubs this year, and are being left to fight their own relegation battle.

To bad it wasn't last year for Marist

Not fact with Wests.  Their team on Sunday was completely different to the team I watched a month ago and feature Rupert Ryan, Jayson Musgrove, Gareth James and a couple of other decidedly older-looking players that I didn't recognise.  The rest were still youngsters, with the Cain brothers arguably their best players.

y-nui 1 marist 1

That's a GREAT result for the Wainui.  Well done those over-the-hill boys...

Wharfies and Greeks won so they go first and second respectively.  Island Bay beat Stokes Valley to climb above BNU at the bottom.

IBU 4 over SV 3

Well that sure was something, transferred to a pretty but now destroyed Awakarangi 1, despite numerous attempts at keep it at a very nice Prouse (according to Wainui). The least CF could do, is have someone open the blimming changing rooms!

Anyway... ahh what to say, we missed and then scored a penalty (the ref didn't book either players who gave them away). They scored with a freekick shot/cross, which was in essence their only shot of the game.

The ref sent a player off from each team, can't argue with either. But he probly should have had about 6 off if he had been consistent. He gave, then disallowed a goal, after their keeper went on a mazy run, beat one of our players tried to beat another, ran into our player, fell over injured, and we rolled it into an empty net. He then spent about 90 seconds treating the keeper (only after the ball had gone into the net, he didn't go straight to the keeper), right next to their supporters, and then suddenly it wasn't a goal.

Story of our season really, can't score when we need to. We either draw a game, or hump a team by 3 or more

bet Bryan was stoked

It was pretty much rage all over the sideline (from both camps) - I think the chant of 'ref send yourself off' was the best of the day

good catholic lads..

i caught that game i thought indian fella for wanui upfront was quality also marist captain in the midfeild. both should be playing in much higher grades

Who got sent off for Marist?

come on the dreamers!!!

CAPITAL 1:  1/8/09
Brooklyn Northern    __    Wellington United    __    Wakefield 2;
Stokes Valley        __    Petone               __    Delaney 1;
Marist               __    Olympic              __    Kilbirnie;
Wainuiomata          __    North Wellington     __    Prouse 1;
Island Bay United    __    Karori Dreamers      __    Wakefield 1 (12.30).

one of the centre backs, probably the best defender they had.

Our captain is brilliant, and could easily play prems if not higher. As for their Indian lad, thought for all the talk he wasn't that special

Totally Disappointed for the Ref..
Nothing, just nothing to comment...
I mean, some Ref need the time and game to grow up.
bad luck, its us this time.
