We had a full team out and played like a team and dominated the game. Very surprised with Snipers as they looked disorganized and uninterested.
Should be a great finish to season, will definitely go down to the wire. Norvan has to play GN and Campo so those games will define who wins the division.
Kudos to you and Campo, Soccer Coach. I really didn't believe you guys would be towards the top of the table come end of the season, though I still think you are an egotistical prick.
Tanoa 0 - Campo Atletico 3 (Forfeit)
They knew that it was coming. Campo defeated them 3-0 with all their big guns in the last game. They knew that we were coming ready to avenge all of their fouls, insults, punches, and spitting from the previous game. The cowards, because there is no better word for them, decided to run away rather than facing judgement time.

The Campo players have been working very hard at improving their collective and individual game. This is the main reason for their improvement in performance.In all fairness, when you predicted Campo failure you had only seen the offensively impotent team that started the year. 2 of their top 3 current attacking players were added to the team later in the season, and a number of weaker players were dropped to Div 3/CAT. It makes a big difference when you have guys that can fill the net.

Many of the players that were moved or had to leave are not "weak" nor they could not score. Many of them are very talented, skilled, and experienced. They could easily find spots in other division 2 teams. One even went to a top Division 1 team.
There were other strategically and tactical considerations that I can not explain on the forum.
We simply see the game and training of players in a different manner, this is why some of you can not understand the evolution of Campo or the crumbling of Tanoa. You see the players merely in terms of "strong/weak" or the functioning of a team as a reflection of the skill of the individual players. Football fortunately has other dimensions.
In any case, the most important thing is that Campo Atletico has deservedly reached the top of the table due to hard work and tenacity of its players.
It is hard to say if this will continue as many teams in this division are very good (Norvan,GN,Greencaps, Snipers, Meraloma, and even Astro), but it is nice to see that the players have been rewarded for their efforts.

They knew that they were going to lose, and lose badly, so they simply did not bother to make the effort to show up with a team.
How many players did they have against you? They've still got 6 games to go, and 1 forfeit under their belt. 3 forfeits = expulsion from the league. If that happens, I think you have to void all their results from the year, which would put Meraloma back in the title hunt?Soccer Coach - when did you find out about the postponement?
I could have told you on Saturday after playing them there was no chance they'd fulfill the fixture against you. To call them a rabble would be doing a disservice to rabbles everywhere

I won't judge what kind of guy you are outside of this forum but what is clear to me is that you come across as an arrogant prick.. You're on a soccer forum with players of all abilities and experience, including those with professional and national team experience, yet you seem to think you see the game in a way that can't be fathomed by anyone else? I wish your team the best of luck and it sounds like you have a keen group of amateur players but puhlease spare us with the holier than thou thing you're doing.We simply see the game and training of players in a different manner, this is why some of you can not understand the evolution of Campo or the crumbling of Tanoa.
