A couple of huge games in the premiership tomorrow.
Tawa fc v wellington Phoenix - the loser almost certainly getting relegated.
Tegal vs TTU - which is always a potential title decider.
Yellow Fever League - 5th edition
We got this.
Was feeling lazy tonight after a 10 hour shift at work. Tables etc will happen tomorrow!

3-1 victory, goals to a player I bought from DFC and a retiring striker who I gave a run to, very pleasing. The commentary said Ard Righ's side dived for their penalty, didn't know that was possible!
An exciting 3-3 draw between AD Fafe and Surge Thunder puts me top having played an extra game, very close division in div 4.
I thought the penalty call was interesting as well, though I am not sure why my team suddenly played so badly.
If this wasn't a computer based online fantasy football game, I'd say it was all made-up :P
Racing Club North Shore 0 - 2 Sky Valley
Sanchez A.F.C 0 - 0 Khandallah Lokomotiv
Highlands FC 1 - 3 Waikato Whippingboys
Elite F.C. 3 - 3 Surge Thunder FC
We were all mostly well behaved this week. A lot of teams with zero cards. The trains led the way with 4 yellow cards, naturally. No red cards at all in the round.

Might as well win this competition too, eh?
No red cards at all!? Hmmm, disappointing.
Isn't the table upside down Tegal? I should be first, shouldn't I? Nice goal difference too...
The Trains have the bye in Division 2 this week. Big games this week with Dirty Sanchez travelling to play the Tuareg Drivers, and Sky Valley hosting Peow Peow. Things could be a lot closer after tonight if there are not draws all round.
A bye for the in-form Whips as well, who are hoping that Highlands FC don't collect 3 points from their game - the table would be incredibly close if they don't.
I just want a point!
Yep, some good games on offer tonight

Really need at least a point in this game to have any chance of staying up. Unlikely though.

From a quick look at your team it looks like you may struggle to defend some of TTU's ridiculously good players. Great front-line though! 6-1 final score is my bold, based on very little, prediction
Also - biggest sale of 3 million! Talk about a massive squad! Half the team must have splinters ;-)
GOAL IN SECOND MINUTE !
You guys will love the commentary of the assist:
"T. Lochhead hoofs a long ball upfield."
(for realz, and he's a defender)
Haha.
Looks like Patrick and I are going down.
Will be tough to catch up 5-6 points on me from here on in.
Unless I throw a game when my teams play each other :p. but don't worry,I won't!
I'm gone. 2-0 in the 20th. Bye Bye premiership
2-1 now with 30 to play... just need two goals to pull off an upset!
wow a 3-2 finish. Good game!
Tawa FC almost pulling off an upset in an exciting game. Would have been secretly stoked had he pulled a result!
Sky Valley 1 - 0 Peow FC
Racing Club North Shore 2 - 1 Sanchez A.F.C
(Made an error with Peow last week - fixed this week)
Peow having a miserable time of it in this league. They are getting a lot of tight games, but a lack of strikepower is costing them as they have failed to find the net after the first round of games. Sky Valley keep up their consistent form they seem to have every season, and the trains keep chugging along as they remain top despite the bye. Racing Club North Shore take the initiative over Sanchez A.F.C, as they stay in contention for promotion to the premiership.
Wellington Phoenix FC lift themselves off the bottom of the table by bettering their managers wish of a single point by beating Los Halcones Locos FC 3-1. Fat Cockneys lift themselves into a promotion spot with a win over rivals Tawa AFC.
Division 4 looking incredibly close at the halfway stage! And a couple of high scoring games this week pretty much sums up how exciting this division of newbies is. Almost completely unpredictable. A 3 way tie on points for first is only seperated by a GD of 2. With Highlands FC in 4th place, being only 1 point behind 1st place. Surge Thunder will be hoping for a but of luck to finally go their way as they seek a good run in, to avoid the dreaded wooden spoon.
Elite F.C. 3 - 2 Highlands FC
Surge Thunder FC 2 - 4 AD Fafe
Dirty dirty trains.
Am surprised by the Fat Cockneys, would have thought their lack of skill and fitness would have contributed to quite a few fouls and cards.
Division 4 is incredibly close. Thought I was about to lose last night down 2-1 after 20, but a spirited 2nd half saw my boys pull it off. Think the defence might need a bit of help. Got a full set of goals scored... 1-1, 2-3, 3-2 & 4-2 Maybe we need a clean sheet...

Dammit... well played!
Was thinking about giving some fringe players a run - looks like that'd be too risky now, can't drop any points! Top 4 team play each other next week, could be massive!
Surge will be hoping for a couple of draws!

I thought Racing Club North Shore's nickname was The Tuareg Drivers, or Rangitoto Old Boys... the Old Boys is on the mark... I think maybe I'll start calling them "Dad's Army"! Has anyone got an older average age than 30.14 years?
Hahaha good spot, the complete opposite of me, I sold all my good players because they were over 30, hence my league position. Hopefully it'll work in the long term though
average age of 28.6 in my first team, 20.5 in the reserves
The Trains win 0 - 1 away at Rangitoto.
1-0 for me as well, my record signing getting the winner, huge result.
Casual 10-0 loss to Tegal for me. Didn't help that I had one of my central defenders sent off in the 2nd minute...
Racing Club North Shore 0 - 1 Khandallah Lokomotiv
Sanchez A.F.C 0 - 0 Peow FC
Elite F.C. 0 - 1 Waikato Whippingboys
Highlands FC 2 - 0 AD Fafe
Some very biased refereeing saw me cop a number of yellow cards this week..... it's just like the ALeague, shit refs :P
5 wasn't it? Yet you STILL haven't picked up as many as the trains!
