Also, if you can get suspended for saying something to a ref, Besty was close to 5 year suspension last night. His frustration in the Scotland loss to wales and WVs lack of finishing on gidio had him wound up and in fine verbal form!
Good point CS, I retract my statement and will simply say that the level of officiating last night was as poor as the quality of play but none of the players were being paid to be there! If a player has a bad game, they get subbed....if a ref has a bad game, they put $60 in their jeans and get a...
D Nott and Nico were at centerback. Columbus was missing a few guys but gutted out a win and weathered a lot of pressure in the 2nd half. Vito Lore got a yellow in the last minute from Ernesto (possibly the worst ref in BC) and when someone from Columbus yelled from the sidelines, Vito was...
i have the championship trophy...it was found in my storage locker last weekend.
my apologies to the league and i will return it to our team official asap.

reedie,
if i may voice my opinion before my suspension is served, i have many questions regarding the value and purpose this new league is supposed to provide! if we are fortunate enough to finish in the top four, is it worth our while to travel to chilliwack or the island to play a game that...
hey gents...
although i rarely make an impact in our games (hi regs), i would not place our masters team in jeopardy by playing a game while under suspension. since they have introduced the practice of having staff cards and player cards, they are two seperate entities. whistleblower claimed my...
CS,
My bad for forgetting that what you saw and what you heard must be exactly what happened...it slipped my mind that you are a referee as well!
Your spot right behind the assistant must have provided a better view than TK taking the kick who swears it was a hand ball...and even if it hit...
My name is Craig Richards and I have an anger management problem! I am the coach of Columbus and would like to clarify a few things:
PV- get your facts straight before you pop off about me learning a lesson. I didn't say a word to the lino last week (even though he allowed a 10 yd offside...
Mr. Base,
on behaff of both columbus and croatia, i wood like to sinseerly apaulojize for our afull soccer...i was also disappointed with our scarry passing but will have to settul for the three points and three ****secutive cleen sheets...i agree the ref mist several fauls and seemed to be...
Columbus 2-0 ICST Peg
It was a fast paced, well contested first half with both teams having some spells of possession and pressure. Felt bad that Costley went down with an apparent knee injury...hope it isn't torn... and then CJ struggled with a back issue. TK with a class chip to the top...
i will try to remain calm and share my two cents as i am still caught between shock and disbelief and the end of a season that had alot of promise, more disappointment, and zero trophies.
before the circus started at the 80th minute, i was happy with our performance and felt we had the better...
ok boys,
it has taken this long for the shock and disappointment of losing the match to wear off and now i think i can share my two cents.
1. the atmosphere at the match was unbelievable and should be facilitated by the league and teams as often as possible...it is great for the game in...
It was a punt and he was trying to get it away quickly to catch them 2 v 2 at the back, caught it clean with the wind at his back, tough bounce off a slick surface, and as soon as it bounced, Sheps could be heard saying "Oh Fack!". Can't believe we have seen it happen twice now!

hos,
the winner will most likely walk with over 5k if we hit our target of 100 lads...depends on how many re-buys and top ups happen but 100 of every 125 goes in the prize pool.
cheers,

seeing as this thread has turned into a bad religion class and a goalkeeper sh*t throwing contest (with most of it being paddled back into the danger area by 6-5 and 29), i might as well stay off topic and invite all of you degenerates to the columbus poker tournament on march 14th at the...
sir m,
i agree that miro played way too much extra time and he has a tendancy to try and get the losing team back into it. i will also say wvan was lucky to keep 11 on the park in the 1st half when omari was in on goal clean and was brought down with a horse collar...miro decided on a yellow...
I was at the MF-Norvan game and saw Norvan warming up with 10 players only to find out it was because Blakeway had been locked in the changeroom by his team during his pre-game deuce...none of his teammates answered their cell phone...he was in there for 20 minutes...and he missed the kickoff...
there was a definite headbutt...
there was a definite sucker punch...
the officiating was poor for most of the night but she got the reds correct...
wv was dreaming as they tried to persuade an intimidated referee into calling their last ditch effort a goal as the ball sat against the back...
Great performance yesterday by all of the Columbus boys...my job just keeps getting tougher as we have added 2 more goalkeepers (London and Lindley), 3 more defenders (Mcechearn, Lucyk and Tynan the Aussie), and 2 more midfielders (Ylya from Cap and Sheu from Sporting). It was a fast paced game...
