Captain. It's our detox for the retox.

Westside 0 v Croatia 2. On the day I thought we were the better team start to finish. Solid win. On to W Van and then the Christmas break.

you forgot the best highlight. When the word "nancy" was misunderstood as "natzi"

it almost started a war.

Poco 1-1 Columbus

 

[Bronco]

Croatia 3 v West Van 1

33pts at the break. Not bad for a div 2 side

 

[hard ballz]

Richmond 3-2 PCOV....we gave Richmond a gift early in the first 5......1-0. We got a pk in the 2nd half to tie it up. Richmond later went up and added an insurance goal 3-1. We got our 2nd goal in injury time.

Merry Christmas and have a safe holidays to everyone.

Excellent site shows Romanian FC 3-2 over Westside... with other results it looks like Sapperton is all but officially relegated - best they can do is force a playoff now as they are 15 points back of 8th place with 5 games left.

The Croats control the title race now - win their 3 remaining games or even 2 wins a draw vs Columbus and the title is theirs. Too bad it will come with an asterix since they didn't earn promotion to get there in the first place

Croatia is a good team. Their keeper wins games for them even when they are outplayed.

 

[LeedsUfan]

Completely agree with Sir M – Croatia goalie is fantastic. When we (Rom) were 3:2 up, he made 4 exceptional saves all 1 on 1 breakaways!!! The game could have been out of reach 5:2 or even 6:2 for us in the beginning of the second half, but he kept them in the game and they won 4:3 at the end. It is well know that good goaltender and good def wins championships, not good offense.

Trying to do my pick'em pool picks for this weekend - which teams drank too much over the holidays and haven't trained yet? Any big transfers?

 

[Sir M]

Yes to all of the above.

 

[Yoda]

Poco 8 - Sapperton 0
Quickly up by 4 and in a brutal downpour the game was uninspiring for both teams.

Moving on the Westside next week

Official relegation status for Sapp now I think (mathematically)

 

[Yoda]

All other games results:
PCOV 1-1 Westside
Richmond 5-5 WestVan
Columbus 3-1 Croatia
Romanian 3-6 Shaheen

Goal fest this weekend in the VMSL...Jesus...

Couple of shoot outs - I'll bet that West Van/Richmond game was good to watch.

I've been MIA but PCOV welcomed Ryan Dormer to the club at the deadline from Coastal and his brother Steve who is already signed will be out after being injured all year. We also added a few Richmond Dragons before and at the deadline. Hoping for a strong finish and better run in the league and Provincial cup.
