I think some zpl teams are better then NL1 teams just like some NL1 teams are a lot better then zpl and some npl teams. Really doesn't matter, cup sets and opportunities to play teams a league up is what it's about.Quote:

I saw NL put 17-1 past two ZPL squads (,Mayf and Kotara) in the last 3 weeks, not sure if they do that to consecutive NL1 teams. ZPL might push a few NL1. Yes training and commitment are factors, NL1 is dying a slow death anyway, Youth football is a focus for half of the Clubs. The rest may as well go back to ZPL.Quote:

If they're that desperate to play on No.2 just sign up for Friday 4s with the Wanderers, that'll hurt less than 21-0.Quote:

Swansea best West Wallsend. Like I said take out NL and the top ZPL teams do more that push the NL1 teamsQuote:

Mayfield jnrs Vs Magic hope they play at Mayfield. Magic on Stevenson park will be a sight to see they won’t know what’s hit themQuote:

Did they draw all the npl clubs out of one pot and the rest out of another?
Not sure if you've seen Magic Park these last few weeks but i think Stevenson may possibly be a nicer pitch to play on at the moment :rof:Quote:

Did anyone see the draw? I was no good at probability in maths but what are the odds on that draw if drawn out of a hat. If it wasn’t drawn with some form of randomness, kind of takes away the magic of a Cup competition.Quote:

Dudley knocked off Toronto tonight. So Cardiff, Swansea, Mayfield all knocked off NewFM teams. Starting to become a common thread. Lucky for Belswans and NLQuote:

Lucky cause without those 2 teams ZPL have beaten all the teams in the division above. NL and Belswans saved total embarrassmentQuote:

They did many many years ago. But interest from some players and the committee at the time made it hard to keep it going. I tried numerous times to revive it but was not met with much enthusiasm. They seem happy with how the operate now, but your right in say the facilities are quite decent..Quote:

Sustainable zone league clubs are hard to come by, I guess all ZPL and ZL1 Squads are stable. But it only takes 10 or so players to drop out of a zl2 or zl3 squad to make the club vulnerable.
Maitland is a growing area, but at the end of the day there is only enough players to go around a certain number of clubs. It appears that Bolwarra, North's United and South Maitland have stable clubs who will hopefully stay around. Flooding the Maitland area might affect these clubs in depth of numbers.
Maybe in a year or so a Tenambit or even Maitland Juniors might come back in zone league 3. Maitland Juniors were also a good club for a zone league outfit especially with the ground improvements. But a lack of success on field was probably the reason they failed to survive which again was disappointing. Maitland seniors were successful, but I'm not sure if they were ever going to be a long term club in the lower zone leagues.
Any results tonight
Olympic 13-0Quote:
