My moneys on vacant weekend for El Classico. Could be a good game for a beer or ten.
As far as promotion relegation goes I haven heard a peep.
I’m still under the belief that zone teams need to apply not win Zpl to go up.
You have to apply, there's no such thing as automatic promotion relegation between Newcastle Football and Northern.Quote:

Cardiff 1 vs. Suns 4
Cardiff’s season is over and will result in a mid-table finish. While the Suns will still be pushing to try and catch Mayfield or Dudley for the premiership. With Suns now winning 8 of their past 9 games, I can’t see them stopping now. Cardiff have however, won 3 of their last 4 games, scoring 13 goals in those games. Cardiff have not won any games this year against the current top 5 teams and with the Suns coming away with a narrow 1-0 win last time around, I’m tipping Suns to get on top again.
Barnsley 1 vs. Swansea 2
Barnsley put themselves back in the survival mix two weeks ago with a win over Jesmond, but have since lost to both Mayfield and Kotara. While still last, it is extremely tight between themselves, Bero and Jesmond for relegation (maybe). Swansea’s top four hopes could be over with a 2-0 loss to form team, Suns. They are now 6 points behind Kotara with 3 games to go. There still a possibility for top 4, but will need to take maximum point from a desperate Barnsley away from home. I’m tipping a repeat score line from their last meeting in round 7.
Sunday
Warners Bay 0 vs. Kotara 3
Kotara got back to winning ways last week and with Swansea’s loss to Suns, they might have survived their scare of dropping out of the top 4. The Bay have continued their inconsistent year with a loss to Mayfield (4-1) last week. Last round, Kotara edge the game 2-1 and with the Bays season over and Kotara desperate to stay in the top 4, I’ve tipped Kotara to win comfortably.
Dudley 2 vs. Mayfield 2
Could this be the match that decides the premiership? Dudley have now won 5 out of their last 6 games. While Mayfield have now made it 15 games undefeated. Both teams have interestingly scored 12 goals in their last 3 games each. Last time around saw a 1-1 draw between these teams. With both teams scoring freely, it looks like it could come to the defence to see who can hold out the other team.
Beresfield 1 vs. Jesmond 3
With Bero having now lost 9 games in a row and Jesmond now losing 8 games in a row, the loser of this game probably deserves to be relegated this season (maybe). The last time these sides met saw Jesmond win 5-1 which was the last time they picked up points this season. Jesmond have only score 2 goals in their last 6 games. But with Bero conceding a whopping 30 goals in their last 6, now is the time for Jesmond to fix their toothless attack.
Cardiff v Suns - Form team blah blah we know the result here, although it would be good to see the kebapi knocked down a peg.
Barnsley v Swans - Swans to win meaning the deathmatch (can't wait!) between Barnsley and Bero is getting closer.
Warners Bay v Kotara - Kotara to be like a tiger in Thailand zoo, doped up and non-threatening, I'm seeing a draw here.
Dudley v Mayfield - Both teams to go out and try not to lose, tipping a snooze fest of 0:0.
Bero v Jeso - Better off going to watch Cooks Hill vs Raymond Terrace than spending the afternoon watching two ZL3 teams go at it.
Cardiff v Suns - im calling an upset here. cardiff always lift against suns. cardiff to win by 1
Barnsley v Swans - swansea win to keep their top 4 dreams alive
Warners Bay v Kotara - kotara by 2, will be interesting if the bay are up for it following the abuse from the kotara crowd last time they played
Dudley v Mayfield - mayfield to win
Bero v Jeso - jeso in a nervous 1-0 win
Haha everyone lifts against the suns. That’s the way it’s been for a lot of clubs over the years. Cardiff.. bero.. Dudley.. Kotara.. Swansea.. for most of those clubs it’s their biggest game.Quote:

Most team talks mention that we need to be on our game because so and so would love to beat us and will be up for it haha.
Sounds like every talk ever given lol.... Sun's ain't special :sigh: Same happens when ever a club has a few good seasons, like when cooks hill dominated those 5 or 6 seasons.Quote:

The next three rounds is going to be like finals football for a lot of teams not forgetting the battle at the bottom of the table definitely hotting up too.
good to know Maj was just there for the love of the game last year :thumbsup:Quote:

If Mayfield are paying James they should get a refund, his left foot is broken.
Maj going from $$'s at Jaf Jafs to zero seems legit
His brother was the coach and he’s mates with most of the guys at the club. It’s not really that hard to work out.Quote:

I'm one of the first to lay the slipper into the Suns but from what I know Lofty tells the truth. He was offered cash to go to Belswans when the Jaffas didn't want him and he went and played with mate and got a bit of passion for the game back.Quote:

The only reason he had to pay for his Kebapi roll is cause there are some blokes in first grade that have already eaten the free ones
hahaha pretty accurate. I think it's obvious the Palozzi boys have had their fair share of kebapi rolls.Quote:

TIPS FOR THE WEEKEND
Cardiff 0-2 Suns
Suns defence is starting to play well at the right time of the year so I see a clean sheet.
Barnsley 0-3 Swansea
Swansea’s push for 4th is still on.
Warners Bay 0-3 Kotara
Kotara are back to full strength at the right time of the year and playing good football.
Dudley 1-2 Mayfield
Mayfield will surely secure the division with a win over Dudley.
Beresfield 2-3 Jesmond
Jesmond get the win and another year in the Zone Premier League.
Well done barnsley, thats how clubs should be built at this level. no one should be paid in zone premier league and lower, and i dare say 90% of players in newfm are not good enough and shouldn't be paid either.Quote:

In all seriousness though who cares, it's not like people are making a living off it (from a bloke who pays his way). Use it as motivation. :deadhorse:
Cardiff 1- Suns 3 - Suns in to good of form for the Tigers
Bansley 2- Swansea 1- Bulldogs have a win in them before the seasons out and Swansea have been hot and cold
Warners bay 1- Kotara 1- The bay will sit deep which Kotata don't like. But wouldn't be surprised if Kotara win 5-0
Bero 1- Jeso 1 Relegation battle if there is a loser they will be the team going down
Dudley 2- Mayfield 0 This will be a cracking game. Mayfield has only had 1 win against top 4 opposition and that was round 2. Dudley in good form and at home
Cardiff vs Suns
Thirds: 2-1
Reserves: 1-1
Firsts: 1-4
Barnsley Vs swansea
1st 2-2
Res 1-3
3rd 4-1
Mayfield $ for rego and $ for win in first grade
Good point for the BulldogsQuote:

Dudley vs Mayfield
3rds. 2-1
Res. 1-1
1sts. 1-3
Dudley had the better of the game in first grade. Mayfield had good structure and worked hard though.
Dudley were always chasing the game.
4-1 in 3rds. Don't flatter yourselves.Quote:

So much for being the benchmark of the comp lololol
