Looks like we got one more shot then ...

Cap Soccer Draw 30 August:

CAPITAL 7:
Petone Dreamers __ Wgtn Un Terrace __ Naenae 2;
Petone Stewsmum __ Marist Inter __ Naenae 2 (12.30);
Waterside Magpies __ Stop Out __ Benburn (12.30);
Wgtn Un Elite __ Waterside Sealords __ Newtown;
Olympic __ Uni Stallions __ Mcalister 1 (12.30).

Shame Marist have drawn Stewsmum - unless theres a decent upset there we won't be able to claim 3rd. Shouldn't underestimate Olympic either - they have improved a lot and managed to lift themselves out of the relegation zone after a shocker 1st half of the season. Well actually, if we beat Olympic and Stop Out claim a win Olympic are back to the relegation zone. Were we in that position last season? Stop Out are playing magpies though.

Shame - they are all kind of nothing games - top of table teams vs lower table teams. A clash against the Sealords would be a great way to end the season - a testy 1-1 draw first up, plenty to prove, humiliate the kiddies ...

Until Saturday then (hopefully - rain and Nick's selection policies pending) ...

Update: Looks like we are going to get 3rd place the easy way: 'all matches below div 3 are only
" friendly games this week " I believe. Looks like 1st round results will decide the leagues this season.'

Still damn tough on the Magpies.
