Fever Cup - 10.30am Sunday 2nd Feb at Victoria Park

11.45 a.ma Sunday. No cricket, just half a dozen guys having a rugby kickabout. And if there is cricket, there's plenty of room for footie at the western end (nearest Harbour Bridge).

No offence jerzy, you may live in Auckland and all. But I think Leggy would know a little more about this than you, he is older and wiser than the rest of us. 

I bow down to Leggy's wisdom. After all he was a much better player than I ever was. And yes, he's even older than me too.

fixed.

Okay, details are finally set in concrete.

We will be playing a 5v5 (or 6v6 etc, depending on numbers) at Victoria Park (10 min walk from Queen St) at 10.30am on Sunday.

We decided to move it away from Okinarawa (sp?) Park because that was way too far away, and having it on Queen St will allow you all to stumble on over to the game after you get kicked out of your accomodation at 10am.

Even if you don't want to play, show up and heckle those brave enough to battle the hangover and represent their region.

Wellington are currently the holders of the coveted Toilet Seat after winning the last game 13-3 on aggregate, and this will be a special one off match for the trophy, winner takes all.

See you all there!

So should we bring boots for this?

Game ended 2-2 after a dramatic Auckland equaliser in injury time. 

Wellington retain the toilet seat. 

Thanks for the game guys, it was fun. 

And I was their over-age player.

Drove past. You guys looked knackered.

It was bloody hot! 

And that was 11 a.m. Just another Auckland summer day - yet another reason why ASB soccer at grounds like Fred Taylor paddock and in the Waikato, where there's no shade provided in the heat of the afternoon, don't attract numbers. Who wants to stand and roast for 2 hours when you can hit the beach and cool off?

Um... How does the beach provide cover? I never see shade at any beach I go to.

Ffs. 

Give it a rest jerzy. 

^ Suffering sunstroke from viewing ACFC v Waitakerie yesterday. Feeling like I shouldn't have gone.

Fucking hell sunstroke? Really? I was there, it was not that bad.
