Awesome win tonight, after my opponents scored two quick goals to go up 2-1, the great Sergio Martinez struck in the 84th minute to get the game back at 2-2, before Seghers grabbed his second goal in the 85th to make it 3-2, we held on from there. Two goals to the top goal-scorer at the club and two assists to the top assister, nice job all round.

I tenuously hold onto my third place at this stage, 2nd has 33 points while 6th has 28 so very tight around the playoff spots.

Suprised my game ended up 0-0, was sure AD Fafe were going to take it.

Scouting suggested they played more defensively, but on the day they were set up as Slightly Attacking

LOL our record would also suggest a more defensive tactic as we don't concede many, our problem seems to be scoring...and I just don't know what to do, think I am now at 8 games without a goal scored...

EDIT: Might have a think about my team line-up today and see if I can come up with something better, cause it's really not working right now.

ughh...  I kept my tactics the same against better judgment and am currently getting dealt a 4-2 bashing by the MCs, 6th place here I come :p

Worst of all is the 5,500 empty seats! :s

Ah well, let's see what the Youth Academy throws at me tomorrow

So the 5 goals mentioned above came at 28, 29, 33, 39 for us, and 34 for them...lots of action in a short period, then Leilei got his second in injury time to finish the game 5-1. Gives us a move back up the table to 12th, definitely need more games like that though.

Great game for the Whips, last night, a 5-1 thrashing of a decent side. Yves Seghers knocked in two, while also adding an assist to the promising Nicolas Van Reet, while Jesus Fuentes and Lukas Muir were also standouts.

Also notable was that it was Jim Duck's 100th game, the first Whip to reach the milestone.

Still a log-jam in the playoff race, second is on 36 points, with sixth on 31.

Nice to see some good results from the Fever last night. Huge turn around from my boys, if we can keep this sort of form we may be able to get back to mid table.

2-0 win keeps me firmly in 2nd place, play third on sunday, 6 win in a row.

and to top it off, my OMC that I bought a few years back for 44.8m has hit 4 starts, was 3.5 when I bought him and he is only 25. Just a shame he isn't a kiwi though.

A couple of wins in nz and aus - am top of the table still in both. 10 points clear in Australia. 

Frustrating 1-1 draw in Oceania premiership against the bottom side. Really needed to win that one to help get me out of the automatic relegation places.

Must've been yelling from the sideline, but this is an insane turnaround. Hoping it picks up.

0-0 but still holding second by6 points, 10 ahead of 4th. Wednesday's game is against 4th place. Gonna be a quiet couple of days for me as I have the bye in the friendly league.

1-0 win over the sixth placed team keeps me in third, second place has 38 points and 5th has 35 so still so tight. Think I'll end up 4th/5th come end of season time, but that'll be enough to easily meet all of my sponsor goals.

A Syred Header just before halftime has seen us get back on level terms at home. Really need the win here.

Although, a failure on my part of reseting my set piece takers means Leilei is taking corners instead of heading them into the net.
