Mainland Premier League (Part 1)
Agreed, mainland usually use Warren as a back up later in the season when other fields are turning to sh*t, its usually pretty good.
Maria Andrews was pretty tidy a few weeks ago when I was out there, same with Brookside. Gunna be a few roadtrips this season me thinks....

English Cup Draw for 1st round - all played Sunday 22 May is:
ChCh United vs. Waimak United
Western vs. Coastal Spirit
FC Twenty11 vs. Nomads
Mid Canty bye
Papanui Redwood bye
Halswell bye
Parklands United byeJust my opinion but if everyone has a chance to be knocked out of round 1 it makes it more fair given it's such a small competition.timmymadden2011-05-08 19:54:41

This is the key point: "it's such a SMALL competition"!

Parklands United byeI can see 3 of the games in this round being close and 1 being a walk over...
Apart from Universities, which senior clubs are missing here? I'm going to assume that the Pap Redwood team is the PDL one so by that logic Selwyn & Cashmere could've been in there...throw in the Canty School of footy PDL and theres a full 1st round potentially

Match of the round would be FC Twenty 11 (there it goes) against Nomads.

Agree on both counts. 2011 vs Nomads will be a goodie.
Merely included the CSoF as a hypothetical 16th entity to fill slot #16. a full 16 team field would eliminate the 1st round bye set up thus making the cup completely fair and balanced.
Didn't you beat them 11-0 in the first game?
Same with Marlborough, but they have aligned themselves with Rangers AFC now.
Same story with Selwyn...my point was we have 16 entities within our region with a mens team (be it MPL, PDL or Div 1) thus it wouldn't be hard to have a 16 team league. I cant imagine the entry fee is too high?
16 team league!? the gap between 1 and 16 would be ridiculous. It's bad enough when teams play Nomads.
Defo just for the English cup...for now ...prob should've used the word competition instead of league to avoid the confuzzling

yes, like MUFC making the champions league final
How's this for a goal celebration?
