Olympic v Jesmond Round 2 Catch up tonight
1st 1-1
Res 2-0
would like to hear other opinions on this.
Iv been looking over other league forums and in league 3 they have all but called it a two horse race League 1 have got 2 maybe 3 they are talking bout who could win it with another 3 to fight out for the final spot. but in this league I can't see any run away leaders or any two teams pulling away from the group just yet. ( maybe to early and prob a better question after the first half of the season is done) but just going of results my team Tenambit are coming second last but I dnt think any team can say they have had an easy match against us. and even Medowie on the weekend proved ur going to have to work hard to beat them from now on. And every body has to be at their best to get the win. There is no cursing thru any matches ( other then maybe the first two Medowie results no offence to them tho). Am I seeing it wrong or is it going to be one good battle over the year to see who comes out on top?
Do individuals come on here drunk ,ill informed or both? Yes we have played against 10 men in our last 2 games and yes, we did equalise through an oggy last night. On Saturday we were 2-1 down and it ended 3-3 without an oggy, with my math suggesting we scored 2.
2 very different scenarios - Charlestown came out at half time and continued impressively with their 2 strikers, which made sense as they were chasing an equaliser and theoretically had nothing to lose. Olympic had gone 1 goal up and left a lone striker, opting to be difficult to break down, work hard and hit on the counter. All of which they did very well. I'm happy to congratulate both sides on how they went about their business after being let down by one of their own for terrible discipline.
Last nights game didn't reach any real heights with similar chances at both ends. Difference was we had a shot missed / blocked inside the 6 and then conceded at the other minutes later putting Olympic up 1-0 at the break. Great leadup work from their skipper who has been awesome for them vs us at home 2 years in a row now. Think it's common knowledge how important he is to them (conceded 3 in 20 mins when he went off prior game).
Anyway as mentioned above, we played against 10 men in the second half and finally broke through with a cross deflected into their own net from a defender you can't help but feel somewhat sorry for as his own benched indicated it's not the first time and were subsequently not impressed with him. It was a much more positive dressing shed than Saturday from our perspective. Although we all could have done things better, we played minus a few through injury, away against a quality club and got away with a point after going down a goal. Our blokes that came into the side did well, one in particular who knows who he is Kenny Sutcliffe.
Saw about 5 mins of reggies, enough to view a cracker of a volley for Olympics second goal in their 2-0 win.
Sharky - interesting question. I think you're spot on and will be a very close comp. We're happy to have caught Mussy perhaps not quite ready and I suspect they and maybe Charlestown to be the ones to beat. Westlakes still worrying if get going. Medowie seem the weakest but are already improving and will definitely pick up points against the better sides at some point. Obvious point but key will be to ensure those that will finish around you don't win the 6 pointers.
I'd like to pose a question to those on her re: discipline.....
Twice in the last few days we've come against opposition whilst not at our best and to be honest, could have gotten away with more than we otherwise would have because of one individuals poor discipline on the opposing team. Undeniable straight reds for abuse of officials.
What do other clubs do about this? Are players spoken to? Disciplined from within? Helped? Jesmond had one last year that has been much better this year *touch wood* after actions were taken including being benched after his suspension. This was a tough call as is one of our best players but maybe it's helped him as a player and maybe even a man. He did and still does have a very good repoir with the coach that did this, it's probably even better now.
Being told it's "unlucky" from your bench isn't the answer. I'm not talking about hanging individuals out to dry, but if a player is sent for something stupid and it keeps happening within that club to the point where senior players don't necessarily want to be there anymore (which I know has been the case at other clubs), something needs to be done. Maybe those in question can be guided and may even be thankful in the medium to longer term.... Just keen to know others thoughts and if anyone is happy to share what happens in your club...???
man this thread, seriously guys, try to keep the posts to a paragraph i cbf reading it all........Sharky, yeah very close comp it seems.
Across the river at Stocko we have an inhouse rule where players receive a 1 match suspension when incurring a yellow card for dissent or ridiculous yellow cards. Luckily we have not had to deal with a red card for such offences as yet. but I'm sure a longer suspension would be used for an incident such as the one last night which I witnessed and heard myself from the sideline that resulted in the straight red whether or not the linesman made the right call in the play leading up to the card.Quote:

Continues offences have resulted in the club adding on an extra few games to the suspension plus once again coaching staff speak to player and try to work with him so it stops.Quote:

I how ever have had a habit of picking up yellow cards for needless back chat to the ref and this year my coach has said if I pick up 5 yellow for back chat or a red for back chat its my shout for the whole team at the club. So it has worked to a degree for me even tho my coach prob still thinks I talk to much with the ref.
ZL3 is far from a two horse race, i think Stockton, Bero, Dungog and Simba are all capable of winning comp, and dont write off Toronto ( with a full squad ) sneaking in the semis and causing some damage.
Anyway thats my ZL3 rant in ZL2 thread :)
Tenambit V Jesmond
Res 1-0 Jesmond
First 2-0 Tenambit.
Westlakes vs Charlie
ressies 3-3
westlakes came out of the game feeling like it was a massive loss.
chalestown came out very strong in the first 20min but westlakes got a goal on the counter.
charlie then got an equaliser after the cats couldnt clear a corner. had about 3 shots before getting it in.
then charlie was awarded a soft penalty which was saved.
cats then got ontop and ended up scoring another 2 to go 3-1 up in break.
second half nothing really happened until 20 to go with another goal to charlie with us failing to clear the ball.
and with 7 to go we had a goal kick which the keeper passed it straight to the opposition striker for a one touch goal.
pretty sad way to concede but thats life.
firsts 4-1
both teams had a player sent off in last 5 minutes after a fight. i missed the start of it but didnt really look like much really happened. a few punches thrown but nothing collected.
charlie were pretty lucky not to have been down to 10 men in the first 15 after there was a strong ball and all tackle to which number 10 for charlie retaliated and ran bout 10 metres to kick the back of a player when the play was on the other side of the field. imo clear red and probably contributed to the drama at the end.
hey mate sorry it took me awhile to reply but anyway, i meant no offence in this prediction i hope you feelers do well. my prediction at this stage maybe only for you guys is looking pretty good right now......Quote:
