Good morning, Sean

Interesting Divisional line ups!!

Only 9 teams in Prem and Div 1????!!!


What will Mr Seddon and even yourself have to say about this!!!


I also notice the PSMFL has dropped to only 38 teams as well!!


Maybe now, you and your chums might realise that it is impossible to create a Prem that is both competitive, and has volume, and also the Sunday Football mens 11 a side game, nationally, is contracting due to people working Sundays/getting older with family responsibilities/dismal lack of volunteers to administer, develop, and run teams.


Best wishes to you and all for the 08/09 season

[Back of the Net]

morning Nik, I think the Prem will be very competitive this coming season and it's never had more than 10 teams since I starting playing sundays as far as I can recall so nothing new there?
A few good teams did drop out though with LB, JNE, Woodston etc so thats a big blow, but 4 or 5 new teams came in and looking at each div there should be cracking games for everyone all season?

RE: Mr Seddon, he wasn't there Sunday from what I saw so dont think he's much involved Sundays anymore? I hope he is though personally.
Me and my chums? not sure were you're going with that mate, I'm no longer on committee, just running my side trying to win games and have a laugh, committee looks very strong going forward and I heard Paul Clarke was voted Life Member which was really nice to see after his long service and hard work etc - good times ahead we all hope.
any other thoughts on each league, favourites to win, go up, go down etc?
racing 252 gotta be up there with Netherton as 252 is now jointly run by Scott from old JNE, that could be a VERY strong team?

[Gordon Gekko]

Prem looks like it could be very competitive...

Good to see Paul Clarke get life time award as he really has put some effort in over the years, is well respected by all and fully deserves recognition...

[n j titman]

Thanks Sean for your response.

I am delighted Paul C has been made a life member for no one has done more for the League than he.

I am looking on the net today for "fishing-how to", as the bait I laid was not taken!!!!!

Seriously I have to find a new job, as selling car horns to Italian football supporters appears to be a thing of the past (woops Raph), so maybe whilst back in Colditz from Thursday till at least Monday, albeit not at PDH this time(!), continuing treatment, I can enjoy more quality football before the dreaded Premier League starts again.

[moe]

looks like it could be a tough season for a few teams, will be interesting to see how it all goes. congratulations to paul, well deserved

[Gordon Gekko]

prediction - Bauer to finish bottom!

Anyone heard from Raph this morning - little concerned. Just want to make sure he's ok. Belts and shoelaces please.....!

Well, I had a good night sleep last night. Well and truely put to sleep by the Italians and there negative tactics. So glad they didn't get through, possibly one of the biggest football frauds of all time!!

[Ross]

Raph, was on here this morning, but didnt say much :D

[Back of the Net]

GG you could be right, our league looks really tough... 252 (or should it read 252/JNE?) look like putting together a VERY good team! We'd be happy to finish outside the bottom 3 possibly 4 and go on from there if possible..

I'd go for 252 and Netherton as favourites in the Prem
Cherry Tree and Parkside/Star for the 1st
Thomas Cook to walk the 2nd (should be 1st div at least IMO)
Dont know about the 3rd, but Sporting SKS to finish below Fenland Police...

[Gordon Gekko]

Blue Boar will push Thomas Cooks. They will have a good side.

Worth a punt - players to revolt at Bauer (see the light) and sack their manager! Not for football reasons, but because they keep getting awful tips from the gaffa...!

Tip for the season Sean, stick to golf, fishing and MCN titles and steer clear of Horse & Hound for betting ideas!

[Gordon Gekko]

Borocars - arn't they "Perkins"? Renamed becuase the Perkins sports club has diappeared.

[Racing 252]

We will have a really strong team this year and I feel we should win the league on paper with the squad we have as several class players signing notvonly from JNE, but it doesent always work like that and our main aim is the Northants Cup. At least we will have a strong team every week this year, unlike last year when we struggled to get a team out most weeks after xmas. It should be a good year, I think Westwood are going to be strong as well as a few JNE will also end up there so it has to be between Us, Neterton & Westwood.

[Back of the Net]

Racing 252 - be interesting to see how you boys handle the influx of JNE and other players, surely a few aint going to be happy? it's your shout though and all the best with it, if Harbs can't find a home tell him we need a lino hahaha, just kidding mate.

whats happened to all the LB lads, will any of them seek teams in the Prem do you reckon? be a shame to lose some of that quality!

GG, I'm at the Golf Open in a few weeks, got a round scheduled, watch out for huge divots on the course hahaha, will text you any gossip/tips I hear.. I'm off tipping for now as it jinxs my bets, got a nice 8/1 shot Sat and told nobody but my old man, it romped it.

[ResMan]

Tell us something we did'nt already know 252. Everyone has been saying it will between you 3 for weeks and that's no disrespect to any other team in that league. To be fair though you sound a little like a cracked record. Didn't we hear all this last year and it blew up in your face and the Northants bit sounds like Scott speaking !!!

[c,mon the hoops]

I would like to think we can get a bit closer to JNE (Racing 252) this season! i know there has been a few good names being mentioned who want to come so hopefully we can get them on board and have a successful season!

[Raph]

I am alive and well! If you can win with a smile on your face, you have to lose the same way. Spain were better than us and I hope they go on to win the Euros - it's about time they won something and if they can't with their current squad, then they should give up international football!

As for PSMFL next year - looking a lot stronger. Great gag Nik; just as funny as when you gave me those three red cards and hefty record fine all rolled into one at RWT a few years back!

[n j titman]

Raph

You are a gentleman!!

Your comments re Italy are honest, positive, and realistic.

[JNE]

Looks interesting although gotta say that competition is still poor in prem with only 3/4 teams with any real chance of winning it as like years before and the rest making up the numbers! sorry Sean, just my opinion!!

Heres my prediction on the top 4 -

Racing will be strong but lack depth as people who are currently their will get upset if Scott takes the JNE lads with him - Not me as retired ! And Scott aim is to win the Northants!!
Westwood will be strong but again lack in depth will prob cost them!
Netherton will be determined to break their league duck and are my tips this year - First time ever tipped them
Limetree will be the surprise package with some good players!!

1. Netherton - champions
2. Racing
3. Westwood
4. Limetree

Know little about the rest of the leagues so hard to give an opinion although I think the mail might fold as they will not want to get thumped in the prem every week - Eh Daddy Hempo!!

[Gordon Gekko]

You get to see peoples true colours when they get whipped week in week out. You just have to look at Parkside, Farcet and better still Fenland Police. They epitomise what Sunday football is all about. Fenland Police have been battered for years and always finish down the bottom. But they turn up week in week and are keen to play football. Lets hope Mail do compete this season. They're good enough to hold there own against some of the other teams in the prem. Someone has to finish bottom anyway!!

[moe]

Although a bit early as you never know who is going to sign for who until season starts, with all the players promising to sign and then go elsewhere ect....
Raph how many Bauer lads you signed for your sat side?

[Racing 252]

JNE I heard you were signing for Westwood not retiring?? We will not lack depth at all we will have a strong squad as Scott has brought his 5-6 main players who will be avalible week in and week out and in areas we need players & we will have our main core of players who were there last year every week as that was our problem getting a team out every week and lacking a goalscorer who was avalible weekly which has now been sorted. Res Man Tyler wants to win the Northants as much as Scott as its the only thing he has not won on Sunday's!!

[JNE]

Core?? No, Me, Randall, mickey or Marcin to name but four who were regulars last year and from chatting to Scott he would only keep 3 from the Racing team last year so I am struggling to see where your strength in depth is!! :wow:

And actually Tyler has not won the Northants or PFA Cup!! I am not signing for anyone as spending time with the little one but if I change my mind it will be westwood! Good luck for next year!

[c,mon the hoops]

foggs, youre more than welcome to cross the divide mate, bring randell with ya an all!

[Racing 252]

JNE Scott is only bringing 5-6 of the JNE lads from last year to add to our players that are staying so we will have strengh in depth, so not sure where you got only 3 staying from last year there will be many more than that!! Oh and Tyler did win the PFA in his last season with JNE against McCains so I was correct!!

[JNE]

You maybe right wombat but either way he has not won one of the trophies as he only had one cup win with JNE before leaving and if it was the PFA we won in beating Mccains then he has not won the Hereward Cup. As for the 3 players, heard straight from the Horses mouth and to be honest only 3/4 are good enough comparing to what he can get from old JNE team and that includes Tyler!! I also believe he has not committed yet to definitely helping Tyler out due to possible commitments elsewhere although I believe he will!!

Either way, let your feet do the talking this year and not your mouth like like year!! The proof will be in the pudding!

Joe, need to clear with the missus about signing and that will not be easy and to be fair after JNE it will not be the same but would like to try and play - still not decided what doing Sats yet! I understand Marcin is signing and bainsey (possibly) although randall going to a div 2 side to get rapped!!

[Back of the Net]

I agree there's 3 or 4 that can win it but that makes it a very competitive league?
I'd say anyone on their day could take points from anyone else, teams like Fratelli, Mail, us, Limetree etc will take points from the top 2 or 3 for sure and that should ensure a tight finish and competition through to the finish? can't ask for more than that?
We've signed one lad who'll bring extra strength and quality already and hope for just 1 or 2 more and keep the core of the team that ran JNE and 252 very close last season in cup games and I'm sure Limtree etc will be doing the same, I'm looking forward to some tasty games for sure!!!

[Racing 252]

Foggy he has committed as was at AGM yesterday with us and has taken half the signing on forms to get the lads signed on this week. I have not said anymore than that it should be Us, Netherton & Westwood fighting for the title which is what you said as well Im sure we cant do as bad as last year!!

[ResMan]

Think the truth has already been spoken. The proof will be in the pudding. Glad to see your confident as ever young Colin but again we'll have to see what happen around Christmas. That was the problem last year and of course an under educated secretary that didn't understand the rules and ended up getting you kicked out of the cup !!!

[Raph]

Either way, will be a good season with a few teams that haven't played each other before. As for a response to Moe's question about FC Bauer/EMAP lads moving to SSPIO - there will be only be about two or three who will play regularly for SSPIO or SSPIO Res, with a couple signing on for as and when they're needed. Majority of Bauer lads work on Saturdays or have to do missus duty, so they save their energy for Sundays!

You can say whatever you like about starting training and pre-season friendlies early; but the character of player we're bringing in ,is the player who wants to play, wants to train and wants to feel part of something.

[c,mon the hoops]

You maybe right wombat but either way he has not won one of the trophies as he only had one cup win with JNE before leaving and if it was the PFA we won in beating Mccains then he has not won the Hereward Cup.

I understand Marcin is signing and bainsey (possibly) although randall going to a div 2 side to get rapped!!

I hope your right with marcin, billy has probably cost us 10pts this season! 1 wk hes quality and the next hes s**t! Bainer? whats that all about!
Im sure lucy will be fine, surely she'd love to come and have a beer in the pub after!!!!!!!!!!!!:dcr:

[Raph]

Marcin is easily the best goalkeeper in our region. Wait and see the little Polish beauties that I am uncovering though . . . watch this space! (I don't just mean the women either).

[jb]

are deeping still playing on that dodgy pitch at baston or are they now playing somewhere else? that pitch is a serious accident waiting to happen.

will/do/have all the venues for sat and sunday been inspected by competant F.A. officials?(and dont say the refs do it as they're not exactly competant on the pitch let alone inspect a pitch thoroughly!). if the answer is "no" then why the hell not? and if not when were they last inspected?

dunno!:face:

[moe]

Raph, pre season training the earlier the better I think, being fitter than anyone else for the first 4-6 games is a big advantage and probably well worth a few points not that I would know. Was just wondering how many were crossing over sun/sat.

[Raph]

Bauer tend to have a mixture of Sun and Sat teams pre-season. SSPIO Res have all Saturday teams - although are open to any Sunday friendlies too . . . hit-me up if anyone is interested.

Top 3 is a fairly easy call as alomost everyone will expect them to be up there.
Bottom 6 is anyones guess surely? can't split them at all so it's a pure guess for me!
A very tough league in my opinion as I firmly believe anyone can takes points from anyone else... waffle over hahaha

1. JNE ... sorry I mean 252
2. Westwood
3. Netherton
4. FC Bauer (hahaha got to be hopeful, this would be a fantastic placing for us 1st season)

If we don't have it for ourselves nobody else will mate....
Post your predictions so we can compare?

You coming down Bushfields tomorrow for the Bauer v SSPIO friendly? 12pm K/O?
Pint after...

[Raph]

I am being a realist - although this is the lowest position that I want to see FC Bauer in. It's all about hitting the ground running I guess. To stay in the Prem is our aim and picking up points and experience along the way.

You may notice from previous posts, that Sean and I take turns to be the optimistic one!

what do i get when i win this prediction? any cash prediction comps being done for final league standings?

[Back of the Net]

yeah I meant Saturday - 12pm at Bushfields..
JB are you playing against Bauer in the 1st game?

[RealTharhegoeza]

Okay all you masochists who think your team is better/good as/ worse than others in your league/division and every other division as well. lets make this competitive fun
PSMFL Fantasy football league.

Sean - will you be ****** (sorry banker) - you will be the only one who knows who everyone is
Are you up for it? or ar you all Richard Branson co-pilots (full of hot air)

[Back of the Net]

I'm not up for being the banker sorry...... got enough to deal with getting subs off our lot hahaha...
make it for fun and get people to post their predictions though?

[jb]

yeah I meant Saturday - 12pm at Bushfields..
JB are you playing against Bauer in the 1st game?

aint got a clue whats happening mate. i'd assume i'll be wherever pino is which maybe a little run out in both or just one.

[Back of the Net]

Pino is there for both and he's having to manage the 1st against us on his own as Raph is playing for Bauer as usual....
2nd game v PSL will see Raph on the sidelines a little more I'd say so as he can scope a few players out.

Hopefully you'll play against us as we've never lost to a team you've played for as ... sorry mate had to get that in..

[jb]

think you'll find you lost in a friendly against psl res's about 3 seasons ago

[JNE]

Sean/JB no one cares about the friendly this early in the season - means nothing!!

As for the Prem - is hard to and sean agree with you that top 3 picks itself although I believe JNE/Racing will win it if they all turn up every week!!

Going for :

1. Netherton
2. Jne/Racing
3. Westwood
4. Limetree

After that anyones guess!

:mad:

[Back of the Net]

JNE, It may mean nothing to you your highness hahahaha, but some of us actually enjoy the banter, the run out/fitness plus of course the pint afterwards!
Of course the result means little as it's early days but a lot of lads will get a lot from it, we've always trained hard and played pre-season and I firmly believe it's helped make us a hard side to beat, so ultimately it's worth plenty to us - SSPIO and others would agree also I'm sure!


JB - seriously can't recall EMAP playing against PSL res ever!
Who ran the side back then? getting old, my memorys fading!

[jb]

the mighty biffa!

[Back of the Net]

cant recall it mate... then again I do try and blot defeats out asap hahaha.

:mad:

Foggy, it means a lot to SSPIO players who have a had a few hard training sessions already and deserve the opportunity to have a match against some good opposition.

It means a lot to SSPIO management who have the chance to see players in a game situation before they sign for the club - a few players look like world beaters in training, but could be more like egg beaters in a match.

It also means a lot to FC Bauer who are mostly mates and haven't seen each other for a while - as well as for Lee Britton who will take his first game in charge of PSL (albeit without a few of his quality new signings).

It also means a lot to the advertisers on PST - as without people getting excited this early, they'd have nobody checking out their ads during the close season, hahaha!

[Lee]

I agree raph these friendlies and training sessions (even though we aint started yet) all play their part mate, even more so when you are starting from scratch. I have made what I think are 9 good signings so far (ALL away on a stag do this weekend) and I am holding back on making any others until I know they are right for the club. I have 15/16 unsigned players to look at in Saturdays game some I havent even met myself let alone seen play before but, they seem eager to show me what they can do (if anything) so it will be an interesting and a very worthwhile game for me.

Where's the beer at after the game? Got to start somewhere before town! :beer:

[Back of the Net]

Beers at The Windmill in Orton Wistow from 2pm onwards as the Bauer game ends then, hopefully the SSPIO and PSL lot join those that finish at 2pm after their game ends? Moe you coming down mate?

few lads told you there JNE..... may mean zip to a footballing god like yourself hahahaha, but a lot of others get plenty from it!!

[Harbs]

cant recall it mate... then again I do try and blot defeats out asap hahaha.

wow you must not remember many games then Sean.

[Back of the Net]

hahaha I think I forgot 4 league games and 2 very close cup games last term - one of which we got awarded as a certain team had cheated and broke the rules.... win more than we lose last 7 seasons mate which aint bad for our level?..
Saturdays a diff story, not played that seriously for over 10 years, Rovers I only signed to help out intially, played 7 or 8 for em...

JNE is desperate to play in some of these friendlies lads! the problem is that is isnt aloud out, if you know what i mean

[Celtic 2, The Mighty Gers 4]

Yep hoops yer naw wrong there JNE has a bald patch coming due to the wriggiling around he is doing and the thumb not moving and rubbing all the time!!:batr:
Wonder if JNE will be allowed out on the 20th July!!:mad:

[JNE]

I am allowed out - with a tag!! :face:

As for the 20th - Will be there to spank you blues noses!!

Sean/Raph - God's opinion is it to early as I said to be training to finish midtable!! :lol:

Notice none of the so called better clubs have started training YET - maybe you have to because the lack of ability in your squads means you have to be fitter to compensate for this!!

[Back of the Net]

doubt anyone's training to finish mid table JNE - SSPIO have realistic hopes of a higher finish for thier 1st and Ressies, FC Bauer do indeed need to train harder as it's our 1st season in the prem so we want to be ready plus enjoy the banter pre-season, it's nice when the Mrs allows you out mate - shame you're not allowed!

Loads of clubs have started training already also, the lads that have not are usually the so called super stars who dont believe they need too as their ability will see them through, as you get older you'll get caught out more and more by the younger lads who've got the edge on you with fitness - are you playing any Prem sunday footy JNE?

[Celtic 2, The Mighty Gers 4]

Thats what i like to see fighting between team mates!!!:clap2:

[Back of the Net]

banter Shaun.... come the 20th there will be a united front against the Huns hahaha

[JNE]

Get that hook out Sean!! ha ha

Only jesting with you and agree you should try and enjoy it and do your best! that is what the prem needs - teams that try !

As for getting older, that is certainly me! As for playing on sundays'. I do not think so as JNE have finished and just had a nipper so wanna spend time with her! If I sign for anyone it will be westwood as know everyone there!!

[bratts]

Foggs - you just had a nipper?? you aint that he/she that was in the paper are you? lol...anyway dont na how long ago it was you had the nipper but congrats anyway...

[JNE]

cheers Bratts! she 10 months now and is great!!

[bratts]

mate enjoy your time with her, the next thing you na she will be 5 yr's old n have you running around like a headless chicken - great fun. But i am sur she wont mind her dad playing saturdays? lol

[Back of the Net]

JNE I got 2 girls mate, 1 is 6 months the other 3 years, enjoy it as Bratts says, when they start talking/walking it's hard work hahahaha
If you sign for Westwood we may see ya in the league...


bring on the 20th..

[c,mon the hoops]

JNE Have you spoke to scottie boy yet about signing for the westwood?

[JNE]

cheers guys!

Joe don;t panic as spoke to scottie at the end of last season!!

[Raph]

Foggy had Nipper? That's disgusting . . . do all the lads at Racing know this? (Sorry, couldn't help it)

[c,mon the hoops]

cheers guys!

Not panicking buddy just dont wanna play alongside you!:nono:

beat SSPIO 4-2 at bushfields today, blazing hot afternoon and a good run out for all concerned... not sure of the 2nd game score SSPIO v PSL yet but we let at HT and SSPIO were wining 2 or 3 - 1 I think, looked a good game.. well played the new lads we brought in, played well.

to right it was hot mate , we trained for 2 solid hours and it was agony , the strongbow was in full flow after the shower mate..:beer::beer::beer::beer:.... good win for you boys

[Back of the Net]

yeah beers at the Windmill after were VERY welcome!
SSPIO beat PSL 5-3 in the 2nd game so I hear...
A good win for FC Bauer as it was our 1st run out (done to help SSPIO and give them oppo for the 1st game), couple of decent lads joined us and did really well so we're hoping they'll help us avoid a bottom 2 or 3 finish in our 1st season in the prem...

Roll on the 20th July for the Old Firm game, then week after v Oundle Res (Paul???) and then Eye 1st team, cracking few games for us!!
training starts for FC Bauer this Tues 6.30pm at Bushfields, all welcome!

[Dugout 08]

Netherton United first team beat jack hunt year 9's in a friendly 5-1 last night. Our pace was too much for them. We're clearly going to win the premier league based on this performance.

:str:

You must have a good side this year matt!
Emphatic win:face:

[Raph]

FC Bauer beat an SSPIO side that were a mixture of 1st and reserve players, plus new trialists - good game all 'round.

The real test will be next week when we play King's School Year 8 girls . . . apparently they beat Netherton?

[c,mon the hoops]

I think it was a draw raph! matt brought a rule book out to one of the girls and explained that there winner was offside!

[Back of the Net]

You know full well that you've been warned off Kings school girls Raph, going in under cover of playing footy won't work!!!

I heard Gloucester Centre reserves beat SSPIO Sundays (Richie, Starks, JB etc) the other week in a close fought game, Apparently Richie and JB were undecided who to play for, as their loyalties were split between their mates and the lads at SSPIO/Scarletts, hahahahaha...

[Raph]

You're gonna get some hard challenges in on you at training now Sean! Great post Duffy, funny as hell!

[Back of the Net]

me and JB got a comp going, I score 1 and he goes and scores 1, I'm winning 2-1 following my opener on Saturday...

[Mick B]

Any one of the big three could win the Prem, 252, Westwood or Netherton, my heart would like it to be Westwood, so often the nearly men, head tells me 252, good signings and Shaky's influence to be huge plusses. Surprise contenders could well be Limetree, got some very good players.Dodgy keeper though(only joking Richie you played really well against PSL last week) hope we give a good account of ourselves, if we play to our ability we will give anyone a good hard game. Hope my old mates at Mail carry on, on their day they can be as good as anyone.Expect SSPIO to win Div 1 If what I hear about the signings is right, would love it for Steve Starkey.Don't know too much about the other Divisions so can't comment. Let's hope this season is competetive throughout all the Divisions and we have a good season so the PSMFL can progress.

[Raph]

Thomas Cook will walk Div 2 - should've been put up to Div 1, but let's hope that from this season forward we can have a little more stability in the PSMFL and direct up/down promotion/relegation at the end of the season.

By the way, the four or five potential new signings for Bauer look spot-on both character and ability wise, to complement the sound unit that we already have.

[CoatesFC - Dave]

Anyone know where we will be able to find up to date league tables/fixtures etc for the PSMFL?

[c,mon the hoops]

Not sure if they have been released yet?

[CoatesFC - Dave]

I don't think thay have, i was wondering if there is a website anywhere that will eventually have such information?

A few years since i've been involved with a Sunday am side but i used to recall yellow jersey but have no idea if this is accurate or not (doesn't look like it)

[Ross]

Yellow jersey is still being used, although there is nothing on there at the moment

[Back of the Net]

www.yellowjersey.co.uk (http://www.yellowjersey.co.uk) select UK - Football - Northamptonshire - PSMFL, it's not updated 08/09 tables yet but will do before end of Aug as usual I think!

Thanks for that - I think my problem was i was searching in the cambs section!!

[Lee]

Not sure about Thomas Cook walking away with the division 2 title.

[Back of the Net]

mate if you can match Thomas Cook in your 1st season you'll be doing VERY well indeed... good luck.

[Lee]

Will be interesting.

[jb]

thomas cook have some very good players but they do carry a few awful players which in a higher league will be their downfall

[Back of the Net]

yeah but now they have stepped up they'll add a few more decent lads surely? cant see past them for Div 2 as they destroyed everyone in Div 3 last season with one of the Westwoods banging 45 goals in all comps I think?

[Lee]

Thomas Cook did not look that impressive at the cup final I watched?

[Raph]

Weston, not Westwood! Will be between Hampton and Cooks. The two games between them will prob decide it.

[Back of the Net]

sorry thats what I meant, busy day hahaha...
Rileys and Blue Boar will defo have a shout in the title, a tough looking league I'd say.

[goldhay rangers]

goldhay rangers for division 3........... i hope

[Back of the Net]

porting SKS for the title div 3 perhaps? another tough looking one!

[Gordon Gekko]

Sporting SKS - a big squad with a mixture of talent which, means as usual will thump a few and be thumped I would imagine at some point. It always happens.... More interested in the social/enjoying the game than taking it too seriously... An open league this season. 4/5 teams could knick it...

Goldhay, there are a few good teams in the league below who will surprise you as you saw from some of your cup matches last season... Don't be surprised if your sitting mid table come xmas...

[goldhay rangers]

last season was our first,we went on cold with no training or friendlys, so it took us till mid season to get used to playing together, we played those cup games to early in the season and was ripped apart buy more expeiance teams,

but this season we have got rid of the time wasters and dead wood, and added some good signnings, including a couple of strikers which we were missing last season, plus buy the end of last season we started to gell togeather, so hopfully can carry that on.

[Dugout 08]

bottom two then ... is rob croote still playing ????

[goldhay rangers]

yer he is, we will be mixing it with the top, pushing for promotion,

[Dugout 08]

orton boys on the charge then !!! aint heard that for a bit , woodview were the last team from orton that did ok , but they were full of alcholoics ???? i was one of many of them .....

[goldhay rangers]

^^^sounds like us to then, lol, we all live in orton and are mate just doing something on a sunday morning before the pubs open,???

[Dugout 08]

:beer:we used to hit virans or the spar down the herlington before we kicked off .... ha ha

[Harbs]

roages!

[oldbloke]

Thomas Cook will walk Div 2 - should've been put up to Div 1, but let's hope that from this season forward we can have a little more stability in the PSMFL and direct up/down promotion/relegation at the end of the season.

bet they dont!!!!!!!!!!!

[oldbloke]

got a good feeling about title chances in div 2!
