We sucked, and i mean sucked hard. Had another player sent off for a clumsy challenge, straight red, but I really don't see how. It was about 4 yards outside the box, their player hadn't controlled the ball, and he wasn't clear through on goal, but oh well it happens. And we actually looked better with 10 men.
Either way, if we had played like this against either Karori or the Hutt, we would have been crucified.
Also - I'm tempted to become a striker

The finishing sucked, or was unlucky at best. That aside it was pretty much all one way traffic.

game was very av with the reff ruining the game with some poor descions both ways. i know it is a massive talking point and we should be thankfull too have the reffs we do but today was one of those days when you spent most the time trying to understand his descions. 1 man sent off each. went thru 9 pens befor scott(hutt kepper)missed, ps jaime mason droped nuts and didnt want to take one.
other results please
A dog with a bone :)
And on the number one pitch I'm pretty sure it was Petone A 1 Tawa A 0
I see wgtn College bet Olympic and meet Tawa college in the semi final. Interesting that two college teams have made the semi-final. I know it is only preseason but shows that some 2nd teams are pretty poor if college teams are beating them.I've been seeing Tawa College play and they playing good football and yet they have still been missing some key players in a couple of games.Would like to think the so called better 2nd teams should be showing up college teams!

- All games are this Sunday 21 March kicking off at 4 pm.
A heads up - if the Federation 17s win against Upper Hutt City B this week, the Division 2 Final will be scheduled for Wednesday 24 March at 6.15 pm on Petone # 3 (floodlit pitch). This is because the Fed team is leaving for the Dallas Cup in USA on Friday 28 March.

there will be no final on wednesday, because Upper Hutt are going through
So who is going to win each section?
I'm picking Island Bay to beat a depleted Bubbles and Wharfies to beat a depleted Petone and then Wharfies to play and bunch of randos next Sunday and lose the final to Island Bay who will then not go on to win the Champs Premier League.
I'm also picking Tawa to beat Wellington College and the Fed Kids to beat the Butt and then Fed Kids to beat Tawa in the final there.

In the junior section (I mean second tier) Wellington College had to rely on a rule change and on Charlie Howe playing his son (who has left school) to overcome Tawa College (who played by the rules and entirely with schoolboys).
lol, Whats the problem playing his son in the semi final? Its not a breech of the rules. I see nothing wrong with it.CboZ2010-03-22 19:29:09
How can this be. To start with, Sticks elbows are about 50 years old, both of them, and riddled with arthritis, and secondly, how can elbows be an advantage in a penalty shoot out?
