Did anyone hear what messiah said on National radio? I missed it but got reassured it was brilliant from the smooth operator.
Well done Western for the 0-0 draw second half. Dont think Messiah would be happy with that.

What's sight without sound? Love without peace? Copulation without conception?

Yer I get that, more of the quantity of Press write-up each week. Check out last week's for example. Here
18 paragraphs on Tech vs Bays, every other game gets 1.
It's not a big deal, just an observation.

A couple of taking points for the big top of the table clash next Saturday between Cashmere Technical and Coastal Spirit:
- will the clash make history as the first ever MPL game to be referred by a female
- will Siggy get on the pitch

And in other news, in honour of the great Johnny Cash, I have rewritten one of his classics. Garrick Memorial Park Blues "I hear the train a comin', it's coming round the bend, and I ain't been this nervous, since maybe 2010..."
You can ascertain what your opponent is afraid of by observing the means by which he attempts to frighten you

1) Who is the female? Obviously hasn't been refereeing in Chch before so where then?
2) Surely if ever there was an option of flying in an ex-professional ex-All White then this is it. Seems legit.
Maybe they could catch the same flight.

Understand ref is Anna-Marie Keighley is from Auckland, down here on an exchange this weekends, has reffed at the Women's World Cup.

Anyone else think it's a little weird (if it does happen) that a female ref from out of town could take charge of a massive top of the table clash?
Not trying to sound sexist (altho I probably am) however why test something on such a crucial match?
Thoughts?

Maybe she's that good that's why you bring her down?

Given she's been to a world cup is it a test or potentially an upgrade?
maybe a change of style? no egos, bias or bullshark due to local loyalties may make it a better experience for all (just playing devil's advocate here Vim - honestly have no fooking clue how good she'll be)

Selwyn played FC last season in our big game towards the end of it all. Had a ref come up from Dunedin for the game. He was a male, but was a brilliant ref. Best one we have struck in the last several seasons. Didn't know anyone or any pre-conceived ideas. Think it is a great idea.
Whether female or not won't make players change. They will still shout abuse at the referee. It's how she stands her ground or deals with it which will dictate how the players are. Just like any referee.

Who are the brave souls down at English park tonight?
There are more selwyn people than anyone else . Halswell winning 1/0
Strange as Nomads are playing Nomads.
I'm picking a draw. Mind you looking at my picks this season, I'd probably even get that wrong.
