Agreed grudgingly have to admit amazing season Poco has put together this year. Only season to rival it in recent memory was Chilliwack's undefeated 17-0-1 season in 2005-06. We were told our record was the best ever at the time in FVSL Premier league history. Our goals for/against wasn't...
Not to get in the middle of the gentlemen's dispute here, but if you re-read my initial post I in no way blamed the linesmen/refereeing for playing favourites, ie: an island/valley bias. Frankly they were awful both ways. I was disappointed in the fact that for such an important game both...
Disappointing result for us, think we might have given Gordon Head too much respect based on their VISL record. Wack came out firing and Wilmets scored a tap-in early on. Lots of other unfinished chances came back to bite us in the arse later on. First of two PK's awarded to GH midway through...
Re: [FVSL Premier] Results & Banter November & December 2010
Give Poco credit tonight, they had a strong line-up out, tons of skill and pacey, but some real head cases eating at the core of that group. They came out firing and it looked like it might be an early night in the first 15...
Re: [FVSL Premier] Results & Banter November & December 2010
Agreed. Bullshit. Drove out from Surrey for this--completely bush. All four fields were in use with games in play or teams warming up for a game about to begin.

Chilliwack 4 ACBC 3
Amazing comeback last night with four unanswered second half goals! One way traffic for ACBC in the first, all Chilliwack's way in the second. It's always said that "yeah, but we could have scored 3 more..."...
Chilliwack 1 Lakehill 0
Surprisingly hot day on a turf pitch (figures...) at Braefoot. As near to our full line-up as we've had all year despite some injuries, Lakehill was much younger than we expected. The heat, sealegs (thank you Triple o's), and the young bucks pushing forward made for a...
I don't think we felt hard done by regarding the game time, it was the decimation by flu and injuries that we were more concerned with. 11 players (not all healthy), no goalie available, and a lot of poor play on our part added up to a disaster of a night. Full marks to ACBC, they jumped on a...
A few random thoughts two days after a great Pak Cup battle and still not over it yet...
-organization by Mission was great--no complaints there. The field, however, was absolutely shocking, particularly for a Cup final. It brought the level of play way down for two skilled teams...
A lot of interesting discussion re: the Wack-SFC match. A couple further details that haven't been re-hashed yet:
-the cries of too much extra time in the second half are a bit hard to believe. There was stoppage because of at least one injury to a SFC player (striker who went down on the...
The funniest part of this, Cantona, is that I don't think anyone even recalls this incident from the Wack-GEU game, but you! Unbelievable, mountains out of molehills if ever I saw it. It was a non-event for everyone but yourself apparently. I honestly thought this was a piss-take at first...
I'm absolutely blown away and pissed off by this sudden ruling! First off I know that all players that have played for the Rapids except for two have been signed since August. The two recent signees have both followed the regulations as far as I can tell (transfer rules, bringing proper ID...
Wack 2 Langley 1
Good win for us after a slow, slow start--we definitely needed and wanted to end the slide tonight. Intense, physical game with lots of pace down the sidelines tonight (Perry, Calver, Peters, Flynt had some great battles out wide).
Wack scored first about 10 minutes in...
Wack 2 ND Lions 0
Lots of chances for the Wack in first half including 2 posts--could have been 3-4 more easily. Game coasted for much of the second. Goals by Perry and Langelaar.

Wack 3 Delta Metro 1
Pretty straight forward game for the Wack boys after a disappointing game last week and looking to rebound. We scored first 2-3 minutes in. Then 10-15 minutes later two clearly blown calls on the same play let Delta...

Wack 1 - Poco 0
Bit of rust on both teams in the opener as more than a few passes were a step or two away from connecting. Some great play in spots though, which bodes of better things to come for both sides. Many new faces on a...
After consulting Don Taylor's handy manual for adjective use, I can confirm that, yes, the 6-0 drubbing GEU were handed by the Wack last night does in fact qualify as a "lump" or "lumping."
Not much to say other than that GEU were beaten badly all over the park for 90% of the match and the...
Yes, good game out in Chilliwack last night, all seem to agree. We were disappointed not to get the win, having many, many squandered chances in the ND 18 go wide, hit the woodwork, or stopped by the keeper. But we'll take this tie over last week's dog's breakfast. Delta played well, knocking...
