We got bounced from the cup tonight in a 3-2 shootout loss to White Rock United.
We out chanced them probably 15-2 but were completely unable to finish anything including a Pk early in the game. We had most of the possesion and WRU simply backed into their own end.
Great job to fight for a win however and their keeper made important saves when he had too.
We also sucked on ass in the shootout as well...
I suppose Trinity Western is next up for WRU, Since Trinity can actually finish I predict a 4-Nil win for the TWU boys.

Got one thing to say to that.... "upside down, buy a round!" ... and STD is truly the king in this beerdrinkingactivity, and the real reason you're so sought after by teams everywhere to play for them...STD said:
Although this year you did fall off quite a bit, and may find youself "benched/restricted" from the beer cooler... One game left to redeem yourself with a few "upsidedown" tosses!! You should be getting out this week and training like for it this
for the weekend... oh ... nevermind, you already train like that.

At the start of the year I would have thought so as well... but I think for the most part we lacked a lot of respect for the rest of the group.... I think Group C has been much improved this year from last, and definately the better of the 3 groups ... IMO. It'll be much the same next year I suspect...

I would agree, mid pack teams, particularly in 2B are really weak.

Interesting. I was just brousing the FVSL website and noticed that of the final 8 teams, 3 are from 2A, 3 are from 2B, 1 from 3 and 1 from the strongest group of all in 2C.
I just thought is was interesting.

Its funny because last year the exact same conversation went on all year. 2c is the strongest all around wait until the cup. semi-final comes around and its all 2a and 2b. promotion tourny comes around and the 2C champ gets blown out 5-1, 5-0 by the other 2 div 2 teams. Its simple really 2C is the most evenly matched, because you are all mid-pack teams. Interesting that this year seems to be shaping up the same way. Although Guru and Cetic would be a top team in div 1 if they tried
Jack The Lad said:
That is funny but it might be the fact that 2c played each other in cup play goofs.
Look at schedule next time and see who 2c played in the cup.
That IS interesting JTL... but since we knocked each other out, and 2A and 2B knocked out all the div 3 teams (barely) maybe that's the reason....Jack The Lad said:
HandJive: I don't remember any such talk about 2C being the best last year.... just evenly distributed... also, our top 11 would kick your ass.... and my dad can beat up your mom

there were 10 teams from each of 2a & 2c in the knights cup. only 8 teams from 2b. 4 still remain, the 4 that are gone, 2 were eliminated by other 2b teams (poco beat clones, coachmen beat bearcats) so there goes your theory, goof!

Ya.... so there....
No one give a rats ass dick breath... but even by that theory, it doesn't mean that the teamss from 2C or 2A weren't knocked out by teams in there own group.... get back to the site and get all the facts first, then up date us.... enquiring minds want to know....

at your age everyone is one step ahead of you, LOL! my comments were directed to franchise. no offense, o wise one!
Cup play does not really dictate who is the strongest. It is a single knock out tourney. If you played the same team 2-3 times or a round robin with diff teams, maybe then you could see how well you do. League standings really show how good and consistant a team is. You cant have a bad game in the cup because you get eliminated. If you have a bad league game, its not over. Cup play really does not prove much. ND Titans won the dam thing last year. Although they played well, NDFC is still a better team and thats why they are in the first division. Make sense??
DJGMC said:
So, by that logic, league shows how good and consistent is, but you can afford to lose every now and then, and cup shows how... good and consistent you have to be? And winning consistently is never the true mark of a decent team, it's only indicator of what could happen if a team doesn't lose? Make sense??
