NEXT GAME; Sunday 22nd May, Orange!

This weekends game is a top of the league clash between current leaders Orange and challengers Madison Celtic. The game will be played at Wolfe Park starting at 10 am. Directions to the field are here;




We have played Orange twice already in the league and have come out with a record of won 1 drew 1. Match reports for both games are here;

This will be a really tough game. Orange have played 12 games so far winning 8, drawing 3 and losing only 1 ( yes to us! ). They have some good players up front and some that can shoot accurately and hard from a distance. They have to be closed down before they can get their shots off and we have to defend really well at set pieces. This team is good at attacking at corners and free kicks so we have to be aware. I know this is a big game but we should also keep our heads. Even if we go a goal down we need to keep composed and not shout at our team mates. We all know a team is beat when we see them do that.


Bambi and Halil are the beer boys. It should be a great game.....bring your best!

  1. ..................excellent pep talk Johnaldo. If we all just P90X bring it on Sunday, will be a great match. So far, Goggs is only one of us out of town for Sunday, so we will be deep again on Sunday. Not sure of TomA's status either. Guys, post if you are in Sunday ASAP, as it really helps Johnaldo to plan for the match. As is protocol now, I will text, email and call the very few in the team that don't check the blog often.

  2. Roniildo. Shame about Goggs. If we have Kris and La Boca in we should be in good shape though.

  11. The note in bold type on the directions to their field says no alcohol. Maybe we should abide? Or we should at least tame it down and be very discreet.

    Also, we should carpool from Exit 58 for those that are interested. I'll call Jorge and offer him a ride. Flaco too, if he's playing. Roniildo, Any word from Flaco?

  18. El Gato,

    If I've got Jorge (and maybe Flaco too) with me, I'll probably go directly to the game. If you want me to pick you up at Exit 58, I think we'll be by there alittle before 9. Call me Sunday a.m. anytime after 6 a.m.

  27. congrats to Celtic!!! Thanks for update Johnaldo.

    Hulk, I'll call you later on, but still no confirmation from LaBoca, Kris oe PINK. Don't get it??? email, text, skype twitter, phone & the best way...the BLOG!!! Perhaps too many choices for some to make up their minds. Danny verbally confirmed last Sunday at the tail gate, but haven't reached him yet this week.

  28. Hi Guys,
    I am unfortunately not going to be able to play tomorrow. I picked up a hamstring injury last week which I assumed would get better, but it hasn't. I have to do some work on my boat, so I'd prefer to swap beer duties with someone else if anyone reads this in time... If so, please post. If not, I promise I will not leave you beerless.

    Thanks,
    Bambi

  29. .........hey Jodingo!! R we all set with Jorge and Carlos? I spoke with Flaco yesterday, abd he is in. He needs directions to the field, but from your post seems You are all set, and bringing Jorge and Carlos. If thisis not so, let me know, and I will call Flaco with specific directions....

    Have a great night boys, and get ready to bring it P90X big time tomorrow morning..last week was nothing compaed to what we need to do tomorrow. You guys are awesome, and we can do this. I am 1000% zen tomorrow boys, as that is the key, as Hulk thankfully continues to remind me of this fact on game day!!!! Thanks Hulk!

    Tano, I have your ball in my car!

  55. .......ot was morre competitive than the score suggested. We had a funny 5 mins, when they netted 3 just after half time. We climbed back into after that, but wasjst one of those days?

    ReplyDelete
  56. A bad day at the office.....

    ReplyDelete
  57. Great day beside the game score, just happen vs the best team of this div. We missed goals as def were lost for 20 min so in that time mid was running around and try to help both lines.
    I'm glad the we have a one weekend off to live this behind.

    Roniildo ... thanks for the ball nursing, can you practice on Tuesday?

    ReplyDelete
  58. Tano the important thing to remember is that we rise and fall as a team....not a collection of individuals

  64. Johnaldo..You are inspired this morning and I like it.
    I see the points and table and we are very close to them plus this is a big season.I notice that After the game we keep united and the only complying was about subs.
    We are a great Team after all.

    ReplyDelete
  65. ............we are just beginning our SASL journey. We have undergone many changes (for the better) over the last year or so, and we will see more defeats in the future. If we respond strongly to the adverse times, as we mostly did on Sunday with another super party, the future is destined to be a lot of fun. Let's get organized for the post Eagles BBQ in a fortnight

  66. Sorry Tano, in NJ until Wed night....sorry for kidknapping your ball
