I’ve watched almost all teams in this league play now and I wouldn’t say that these are the top two teams in the league, despite current standings. Lower Hutt will be up there but don’t think FC Western will. FC Western have played bottom two teams which I think inflates their position. In saying that, New Plymouth will be a tough place to travel.
Maybe so, but you can only play what's in front of you. So to that end they've given a good account of themselves. In fairness I didn't think we'd get anything out of an away day at PNM either so there is something to build on.
Will have a better idea on Friday when I head down the road for a look.
