U lost to BC united does that make them better stal?

 

[johnnybluenose]

The BC United Loss was a loss, there were specific reasons why we feel that that loss is "yet to be avenged" as our loss to TWU was avenged, which came as 2 beat downs in the return leg of our home and home and the cup... I know all teams are missing players here and there, and the BK's were down men when we played them and won twice... We didn't have our first or second string keeper in net for that BC United game, no coach there that day, and were missing a great many starters... It's one thing to be down one or two guys, even three or four. It's totally different to be down half your team.

No excuses, as of right now the results dictate that BC United is "better" than us. We anticipate and look forward to the game this weekend.

No, but it does make Mission better than us because they beat BC United who beat us. You'd think you would know how this works by now.

I Agree with what you said there JBN. House the Knights had a full team against Abby and lost. when they played you they didn't they have maybe four players that the GEU Titans woudn't take. they're friends of guys on the team they play there. when you're missing half your starting line up, most teams would lose.

 

[italian_stallion21]

For clarity's sake, has anyone had their entire lineup out for a game this year? Anyone?

 

[The Franchise]

No, but it does make Mission better than us because they beat BC United who beat us. You'd think you would know how this works by now.

I know how it works just making sure you understand....teams beat better teams all the time its the nature of the game...hell Celtic could wipe the floor with you in one week but it doesnt mean over a season that we are better then the Nomads...or vice-versa

Look no further then you tieing Whalley....sometimes the ball doesnt go in the net

And for clarity I think we have had a full-lineup once this year and you can count on one hand how many times we have had a sub...so an excuse of not having a full-lineup is garbage....gut it out and play hard and make no excuses...

Woah, woah, woah, let's not get ridiculous here Franny. I don't plan on playing net anymore.

 

[housearrest]

This conversation is funny. I'm glad I can stir the pot

 

[italian_stallion21]

And just to piss Franny off (who will reply by saying they like being underdogs blah blah blah ) I'm really hoping to see us, Mission, Abby and Inter in the semi-finals, as that's the 4 best teams left IMO. Would make for a wicked night out in Langley for the semi's. Hopefully none of those teams draw each other tonight.

I dont remember ever using underdogs? That's weak shite! Excuses I leave on the field not post them here son

Did you just say you make excuses? Tsk, tsk. Whether you leave them on the field or not, excuses are excuses

Isnt the draw on Wednsday night?
and Idea on home field times for the teams left? I have training tonight and would like to give the guys a ballpark so the can get out of whatever stupid things the might try to plan between now and then.
Magpies play in P.M. at 6PM on Saturdays.

 

[johnnybluenose]

PAU Nomads home field allocation is SSAP Turf #9 Saturdays at 6:30pm. With warm & dry Changerooms.

 

[4thplacetrophy]

Inter 8pm Saturday nights @ westview. No changerooms like the nomads but we do have two high quality porter potties.

JBN

You guys still bring the BBQ out after the games.

 

[johnnybluenose]

nope kjohnsob left town for Deadmonton...

However things can always be arranged

 

[gt5]

Mission Friday night 7:30 change rooms but i wouldn't worry about that as in 5 years mission has only had one home cup game.

 

[cascadesoccer]

Celtic, Saturdays 2pm Bonson, grass, bathrooms but no changerooms, or Saturdays 4pm Pitt Turf (just above the grass) benches with covers.

Get a better time and you probably would
