How weird is this?
I play FI twice in one week! First in the cup then in the league game. I guess we'll get cozy with them if nothing
else.
The loss last time to CA was unfortunate, but not
unexpected. I can only hope for a good
mid season aging. After all it saved me
last year!!!

DIVISION 2
Adirondak Renegades
Manager
Fulmer (MF): I'm not looking to trade, haven't been for several weeks. But I
won't pass on an opportunity to improve the team. CM Guerrero is an outstanding
player, and will be very important with all of the good CP teams in Div 2 this
season. The second player we got, AS Clichy_1, fits beautifully into our long
term plans. We have been acquiring young AS, we now have 6 age
20 or younger, and Clichy_1 is very talented for a 19 year old. We gave up 2
very good players, but the players we acquired fit better with the tactic
revision we are working on.
AP: And
what tactic revision would that be?
MF: Let the
other teams scouts figure it out :)
AP:
Changing topics, Manager Thomas of AK released a story about former AK and
current star AM Swannson going out drinking and
getting jailed the night before the cup game between AR and AK. Any comments?
MF: We
obviously have some work to do to break Mats of the bad habits he learned at
AK. At AR, we go out drinking after the game to celebrate victories, instead of
before the game to dull the pain on game day.
AP:
Speaking of victories, a few over the next several weeks would be very
important for AR. Your next 4 matches are DS, FU, LU, and EW. DS, LU, and EW
are tied for first. FU is tied with AR and PN only 3 points from the top.
MF: I'm
really looking forward to the next few weeks. There is going to be some great
competition in Div 2 this season. I think LU is the class of the Division and
should win it, but all five of the other teams you mentioned have a chance at
second place and automatic promotion. I think there are also a couple of other
teams that have a shot at a playoff spot before all is said and done. This is
why I brought in a strong player like Guerrero. It is also possible I could be
looking to strengthen our defense before too long.
AP: On top
of a tough league schedule, you drew CA in the cup. Definitely
a major challenge. AR is a very deep team, but do you have enough depth
for all of this?
MF: I
really enjoy playing against Ivo, but I am not really
looking forward to this cup. CA is not going to make a run at the league title
this season, but they are definitely safe from relegation, so I am pretty sure Ivo is going to focus on the cup. I'll just have to enjoy
my memory of knocking him out of last season's DESL cup.

Last week's speculation concerning the
future of long serving keeper
Fanatics United
Don't really think that TS
was in that Cup game, well thanx for the training.
Lets see
how I do in this game.
We got a nice, unexpected win last week so we will see
what happens this week. We are currently
tied for fourth but a win could bump us into tied for first. We play NH, who are
in ninth place so we should win but you never know.
DIVISION 3
Guns to stop Smoking?
That is the
hope of the Kickers this week. Though
the team has the worst GD in the whole league,
SB: SG will be hard t beat this week won't they?
DT: Absolutely Stephanie. Any team that starts the season with 6
straight wins is always going to be a tough game.
SB: What is morale like leading up to the game?
DT: Morale is pretty good. Especially after playing
quite well midweek.
SB: Yes, a narrow 2-nil loss against one of the
best sides the SAEFL has seen is not too bad at all.
DT: It is the second time we have had to play
them in the cup this season. AA have won
both games but only scored 3 goals against us.
We might not have scored any ourselves but keeping them to a low score
keeps us alive for the second leg at home.
SB: Isn't it a problem though that you haven't
even managed a shot against them though.
DT: It is.
They have only had 6 though against us.
Very defensive games with second string players. All we need to do is have a few shots against
them and then we might get through to the next round.
SB: Turning back to the league. A loss last week pushed the team further
behind in the playoff race. Does it
bother you that a loss here to SG could spell the end of the season for the team.
DT: Not at all.
We are not even half way through the season yet. SG are going to lose
a game sooner or later, why not this week?
The playoff race is still well and truly alive. We are only 4 points hebind
with 16 games still to go. We have been
concentrating on the cup the last few weeks as that is what the guys feel they
can do. Midweek showed us that. We just need to get out there and do it on weekends aswell.
SB: Thanks for your time David.
DT: No probs Stephanie.
African Selection
OOOPS.
Blow out city. The Selects take a gamble and it back fires....should not have
played LB against FE. The Selects were smoked! Luckily, we are still the most
defensive team in Division 3. We would also be the most defensive team in Divisin 2. However we are not in the top 5 in Division 1.
And you wonder what makes them so good...No BLOW OUTS!!!!!
Hope you
all had a great holiday season.

Cup - We
unfortunately need to rest some players at this stage of the season and expect
to get thumped.
League
Resting our key players last week took us to the
bottom of the 3rd div. Our attention this week is firmly on the CUP and we have
an uphill battle against EU who also seems to be struggling in their division.
It's not going to be easy as we are away to them and
they are a good side but we will give it our best shot.

COACH
HAS NAMED A NEW CAPTAIN FOR THIS GAME, BEING J.TRULLI. THE TEAM HAS BEEN
TRAINING HARD THIS WEEK ON THEIR SET PIECES. THE TEAM IS DETERMINED TO COLLECT
POINT’S FROM THIS AWAY GAME. THE COACH IS ALSO DELIGHTED THAT IS DEFENSIVE
MIDFIELDER IS BACK.

SH was fuming after their against
VA. Manager Lear stated after the match,"This is
not the result we were looking for. We wanted the win badly and didn't get it.
As a result, SH is going to be after SG this week with all of our smoking guns
blazing and we aren't going to let up. We feel we are the #1 team in the
division and we aim to prove it.
