Subject: New Zealand Cup

First time i've played him in a while too.. We have the cup match next wednesday and we have the league match sunday week, so we will be doing back to back, lol.

Am testing out a tactic this sunday against the tigers, most certainly unorthodox but we'll see how it goes.

Oh and, spcblue is still apparently banned, so at least i know what his lineup will be...

Next round:

FC Stryke - deathstrike 2:22
st patricks blue - 11 Wise Men 1:4
N_Z - Fiery Tigers 1:0
Palmy Bongos - the unbelievers 0:6
Vidamor AFC - The Invincibles 0:9
West Auckland Warr... - One 0:1
Hyperintelligent S... - Millionairos 0:5
Left Footers - wonnabies 3:0

The one surprising result is that N_Z kicked the Tigers out of the cup by converting their one shot on goal while Tigers who didn't play Gilbert, Hird, Morcombe or Ferris converted none of their 5 :P

Was surprised to see bball's game Still In Progress when i first looked at the scores, thought it had gone into extra time! But no, it was just all the running back to halfway :P

A close match between One and West Auckland Warriors too which just goes to show how close the gap between the premier and some fringe premier players really is!

Not sure how but I keep getting to the quarter finals. How is the draw arranged....1st 8th etc or random?

top seeds and bottom seeds are put into a basket. One team from each plays the other, its a random pick in other words.

Ideally i would get N_Z

If worse comes to worst i'll get Millionairos.

You're obviously a very skilled manager :)

One - deathstrike
Millionairos - 11 Wise Men
N_Z - the unbelievers
Left Footers - The Invincibles


Well I got the toughest seed in the lower basket. :P

Assuming that all the right hand side will win, It would be a VERY VERY interesting semi finals

brother vs brother and goodfriends/enemies play each other?

Me n unbelievers know each other in real life and his sole goal is to defeat me in sokker. He keeps on trying but fails everytime. :)

Oh and it would be a whole christchurch finals if all the right hand side wins

I just HAD to draw Millionairos... RAR

GO N_Z, beat the unbelievers!!

Edit: i do believe that all the away teams will win, i also think that i will get the unbelievers in the semis because i seem to be getting the toughest seed from each round now...

I wish I played somebody with a proper stadium (maybe even mine), rather than a 3100 seat Botarena.

interesting to note that i'm the only kiwi guy online atm and our cup games are 20 mins away :(

Good luck to all participants and to millionairos, if you injure bodger, i will buy you plus and spam your guestbook!

Next round:
One - deathstrike 4:5
Millionairos - 11 Wise Men 0:2
N_Z - the unbelievers 0:5
Left Footers - The Invincibles 4:7

Interesting match at the top, One almost had a cupset over deathstrike, a pity he didn't.. means an easier cup final :D

other results are to be expected, a christchurch semi-final!

so not far to travel for all of you :)

i have dibs on QE2

I was still in there with a bit to go but I got squashed

Next round:
the unbelievers - deathstrike
The Invincibles - 11 Wise Men
