How many goals did you get Canuckboy???? I'm sorry I couldn't have been there.
Lufc Sporting 4-1 N.D. Sundowners. we played great. hard to fault the lads today. defense shyte the bed, but everywere else we were steller, just unlucky in the final 3rd. yes the score was 4 to 1, but they only had 4 shots. possesion was easily 70-30 us, if not more. with sporting subing 4 at a time. i know we lost, but hard to take issue with the effort. just unlucky. on to abbottsford, i hope it's not a school night for these boys.

We only had 4 shots on net the whole game? ...I am sure we had at least a couple more than that!.
Lee, here is another wtf.
LUFC Clones move from 4th place Div. 2b last year to Div.3b this year?
How are they allowed to go down a division?
Staying where you are placed should be mandetory.
I don't know Chopper, but every time I hear you scream SUB!! I keep looking for Jared to jump out offering you a foot long veggie.
Yes we have been mid table in div 2 for the last 4 years, but the thing you have to remember is that we were a team that had an average age of 38. At the end of last year we had 4 guys that went to over 40s, two of them were turning 50 this year, and then at the begining of August we had 4 guys decided that they didn't want to play another year in div 2. We were down from a team of 20 to 12, so we went to the league and asked to be put down a division because we would not represent Langley very well if we were even able to put a team together. We got lucky in finding some players, and young players at that which helped us out alot. Were a bunch of old men just trying to have fun. Can't say for the rest of the team but I know that some have expressed that if we can keep the same team next year and somehow win a promotion that we would in fact move up, as for me I don't think i would go with them. I'm old and fat and enjoy beer just a little bit more then chasing some fast young kid.
Thanks Chopper.
So basically you gave a spot in Div.2 to a team that didn't deserve it and this year ( if you get a spot ) you will be taking it from a team that did deserve to go up. Now I don't fell so bad for losing to your Div. 2 team.
You shouldn't be in Div.3 and if you beat out Cloverdale FC for a spot I would expect them to Challenge your promotion.
See you on the 31st.
ok but in our div you have poco wanting to win and the magpies wanting to win and us wanting to win , say poco and the magpies get top spots they should go up , (mapies and pacific will be just fine in div 2) but poco will refuse the spot like last yr , if they took the promotion last yr then we would have a better chance of a top 2 spot this yr , we still deserve promotion but are getting ripped off coz there is a div2 team on top , if they stay on top then teams that should be 2nd are 3rd , why , because they dont want a challenge . i would like to get promotion and have that challenge . not just as a player but as a coach too.I agree with you Chopper who the fack gives a siht.
If it's the Clones, Poco Pacific or whoever, decided to come down to Div.3 for whatever reason, that's their reason. It has nothing to do with any team. It's the other teams job, if they have any ambition to be promoted is to be beat them. That's it that's all.
U can't get through life by a technicality or by a hand out. Every team has to prove it and show it that they deserve to be where they are.
Period. If a team sucks like siht, then they deserve to be where they are, whatever division they are in. There are no excuses. Except for a retarded referee that takes things personally. LOL
Clones are a good team, they pass well and are solid. I was impressed with how they played. That is how Div.2 teams play and how all teams looking for promotion out of Div.3 should play.
I really look forward to playing your team Chopper. You guys played the best so far and i like the way the Clones played this season. Though we were short when we played you.
Anyways, I look forward to it, nonetheless. Good Luck in the Cup and moving forward. And you guys do belong in a higher division. Cheers.

What team do you play for?
I can remember playing div4 years ago and yes it was bad soccer
that is a good idea , but forget the measuring stick , like any league in the world if promotion is gained the appropriate addjustments to the team are made , you go up a div you will attract better players and some of the exsisting players know that they will have to find another div 3 team , thats the way it works , the team i have may well serviive in div 2 but changes would be made , if i had a div 2 quality team like poco pacific then i would be in div 2 or top of the league , its the likes of poco that are stopping teams and clubs progressing . what utah is saying is if you cant compete with a div2 team then you dont deserve it , what a load of crap , poco are not div 3 , and the point of promotion is to be one of the best in div 3 , not competing with div2 quality teams to get there ,,,, if that make any sence .Yeah, i see what your saying and i was saying the same thing in the beginning of the year about teams like the Clones, Chaos, and Pacific. But then i realized you can't force a team that doesn't want to move up to move up. If they feel they can not compete in Div.2 or don't want to compete it's better for the league that they don't go up. Better just to sell your position.
But the league should just give promotion to teams that really want it like yourselves or Magpies. For example, If Pacific don't want to promote this year like last year when they should of, then the league should promote the teams that finish 2 and 3. It is only fair and makes sense. But that's something for the league execs to discuss and decide on.
One positive though is when teams like the Clones and Pacific stay down is it really provides a good measuring stick for teams that really want to promote and go higher.

see above replyJesus Christ Chopper, you found your inner voice.
Lee Wiltshire stop sucking the sack bra. If you are finishing 3rd in div 3 you do not deserve a sniff period.
Build up or back up.
