PRESS REPORT
Adirondak Renegades
. Adirondak
Press (AP): Good start to the Cup for AR.
Manager
Fulmer (MF): I 'm very pleased with it. We didn't play all of our top 11, but
we played several of them, and had a very competitive match against AS. I feel good about our chances of making it to
the second round. It looks like BS and DT are not
trying to advance, but that could change after the first round results.
AP: What
did you think of the first round?
MF: I lot
of teams are focusing on the league, so there are not a lot of teams going for
the Cup. However, there are some very good ones so there will be some tough
competition.
AP: And the
good ones are?
MF: TH amd IQ, certainly no surprises there. They both have very
strong sides and an excellent history in the Cup. FI is also usually a top Cup conterder. I'm not sure if Marco is focusing on the league,
(where he definitely has a chance unless his luck stays lousy), or knows he can
rest a lot of people and still make it to the second round. TB showed a pretty
strong line-up, so it will be interesting to see how important the Cup is to Jeroen.
AP: What
about second and third division teams?
MF: Yes,
there are a few that could make this years Cup a lot of fun. AV, AP, FE and OC
all look promising. AV played 101 nsl. I'm impressed!
I feel sorry for FU and ES. They are good enough to make it through, but they
are in a very tough group where all 4 teams are trying to advance. It would be
fun to see one of them stick it out and advance.
AP: What
about defending SAEFL champ JG?
MF: I'm not
sure what Bart was drinking when he wrote the Cup orders, but that was a very
strange set. He wants to advance, but JG is in a rebuilding mode and I don't
think they have the strength or depth to go very far and avoid relegation.
After saying that, I hope I don't met Bart in the second round.
AP: How
about the league?
MF A
critical match this week against IQ. TB is still my favorite for the title, but IQ is not far behind. We are at
home, so I am looking for a close match.

F.C Inferno
We've
had very though weeks so far... Red cards, unlucky GK performances and so...
hopefully, this will stop one day and I expect to be today. If everything goes
as planned (which has not been the case so far) we should shut down NW attack and
still manage to get 5 shots on goal... one should go in, at least... But that's
all theory! ;)
InterQuartile Rangers
Well,
the cup is off to a good start. We have
a decent side this week for Don. Not
quite our best, but hopefully good enough.
We want to introduce
2 new players GK M.Hahnemann and FB O. Onyewu. Both are fresh from the draft. We expect Hanemann
to make an immediate contribution while Onyewu should
make his mark in the near future.
Don
and I used to be evenly matched. Part of
it will be a matter of who is saving players for the cup. 2 cup games in 3 weeks can really mess up
resting players. It's also hard to do
both this early in the season.
It
was a cup week so there are no stats for Div 1.
NoShaKi WC98
Last
week, we won but since it was a cup week, it does not really help us in the
standings for the Division. Now, we are
in a good spot for the cup but still in a little trouble with the regular
season, as we are in tenth place. We are
making a trade this week to get another CF - this time a freak, so our offense
will be deeper and better. We are giving
up a good, young defender and some money in return. Hopefully, this will help us win some more
this season and help keep us in Division 1 for next season. We play TH this week, who are really good, so
there is only a small chance that we are going to walk away with any points,
much less the full three.
Though they are only one point above us
in the standings. Either way, we are going to try
our best and see what happens.
The Boelewieten
Not to
trust, a drunk, working for the goverment, lets face
it people, JG manager cant be trust. Or in other words; the 'angstgegner' for The Boelewieten.
And in plain English, we lost a few games from JG du
to the skills of that manager.
Van Poppel had the time to think about the tactic that he must
use for a win in this homegame. And I know, thinking and Van Poppel, the
best way to ensure a loss. Shut up you all, here is the plan; 104 NSL, leaving
the bad guys out of the team, playing CP, buying a box of candles and, as a
good catholic, asking our priest for a good old Roman blessing.
And Bart,
well, with his skills he must already be on his way to the
The Jazz Greats
After
a very good first three weeks we will lose our first match this week. We play
powerhouse TB and as much as i like to annoy him i just can't field a team that has any chance at hurting
him.
So
this week and the next will be used at testing newbies
and resting the top 11 players so we can continue to grab as many points as
possible in the league to ensure we don't relegate.

Apocalypse
The Cup
Game last week showed new boss Les some fantastic attacking, stylish play
against Otto's Deo Volente
- the sides had met the previous week in the League and had shared the spoils.
It was therefore very pleasing to walkaway with a
fine 9-5 victory in the Cup - although we didn't mind the praise going to
previous boss Craig in the official match report.
This week see's us, currently 3rd top, play 3rd bottom Grammar
United. Our scouting reports show that Mike has a well drilled, mean defensive
side and it won't be an easy game. After saying that we
expect to create enough chances in this game to ensure we keep in touch with
Len's promotion favourites.

SH
is definitely not taking NH for granted in their upcoming match.
Manager
Lear feels,"NH is a definite early season test
for the SH squad.
NH
can come at you from all angles. They really aren't a totally wide open
attacking squad but NH can play all parts of the pitch equally as well."
"SH is going to have to come at NH with
all guns blazing away.
Despite
our flop in our first cup match, I feel SH has started to build a good deal of
momentum in their league matches and we want to keep this going. Also we want
to take advantage of the opposition with our totally rested lineup and our
solid week of training."
SH was pleased to obtain L. Valasquez a solid veteran DM who hails from
SH is still
looking to make a couple of player deals. We are willing to deal GK prospect P.
Musselwhite 8.00 24 - rising and a couple of our other
outstanding youth prospects to obtain a 10.00 GK. less
than the age of 31. SH can add cash to any deal. let's
deal.

African Selection
Well the
Selects had a little bit of bad luck in the first leg of the Cup.
Looks like they will have to pull up their socks in the final two games
of the round robin. They let in both shots taken on net, so hopefully this will change this
week.
I hope you
all had a great Christmas.
Colin and family.

AS look
like a very tough team to break down when they play ZD so I'm going to go into
our home game against them with a boost in order to give me an additional edge.
I hope it pays off as this is a game I want to win.
