Great results for Toros & Cove. Well done!!

U13A

AC v Comets match abandoned 20 mins.
Poor lad for Comets broke his leg. A horrible experience to witness for all players involved. My lad is pretty shook up about it. Glad I wasn't there.

:| Who is the FFSA Development department accountable to :?: :( my in box is full, people to scared to say anything just in case their kid is victimized :shock: how did a system run for the people of SA & paid for by members get to a stage where people are too scared to ask questions for fear o...

U/13

I heard a rumour AC bundled out of cup by the Cove.[/quote]

Yes Cove won 3-2. A dramatic winner in the final minutes after being 2-0 down. A proper cup tie in horrible conditions. Well done to Cove!

And England have won how many world cups with this system? about as many as the Dutch...nowt.. Populations of England and Holland please ? Name me 4 English players technically better then Sneijder, Van Persie, Robben and Van de Vaart please ? I won't even ask for 1 Australian player, let alone 4 b...

........ People shouldn't listen to crap on ere , yes there are small sided games throughout the world but pro clubs play 11 vs 11 and always will coz that's what the kids have to learn..... We have moved to England 9 months ago and my son is playing for a championship clubs academy........ Up to t...

U/13A

West Adelaide 1 Adelaide City 1

No referee
A very entertaining game from 2 very good teams. Well done.

only really happens at the big clubs who can afford to buy the best young players from around the world, get them early and it saves them having to buy high priced players at a later date. I personally think there is nothing wrong in kids being exposed to results / competitive games. kids have plen...

Lots of leagues in the UK are doing tables for U8 upwards. Thought that there is an issue in the UK with the poor development of junior players, the lack of choice for the National team and the amount of talent being brought in from overseas to fill the gaps. Wonder why? No issue with development i...

The whole development arguement is really being taken out of proportion these days. First thing for any coach should be the development of each individual in the squad...which should be obvious. But at under 12 level and onwards you must play for points, like stirring the porridge said learning to ...

Stitch come on man...the kids want to win but I just think at the ages I mention it should be about technical development, and playing style not recording results.. :wink: I'm sick of hearing coaches and managers of young teams say how great the team is because they are winning......winning what???...

Here get your kids to do this..100 volleys against a wall & How many keep ups in a minute....
I think Stuart Slater held the record a while ago.

Top marks well done!!

If this man can coach then so can I .Give me the application forms & I will save a club quarter of a million.

I like the response to this post. Nobody knows who this bloke was by the look of it. Wanky forums

The last of the great characters of football.... but I will never understand why did he sold Peter Barnes & Gary Owen??
RIP Big Mal

Oh Jesus.....

Just hope the owners dont push the panic button and get rid of Mancini, once he gets the squad he wants, he will be very good for the club. Knows how to get results and has a proven record, even before Inter he won a Coppa Italia with an average Fiorentina team. That's all Man City have done over t...

As long as the players got their bonuses. Don't need to worry about the 85 employees on crap money keeping the club going they are not important, its about those wonderful loyal & caring players giving up their valuable time for 20 hours a week.
The game is & will go to the wall...

Dowie has been paid for 12 years work & has only worked for 4 of them. They wonder why clubs are in strife. I guess he has his UEFA coaching diploma which makes him a great manager. there is no other industry in the world where you can be sacked numerous times & still manage to find work doi...

Is Mick Rees still playing for Man City ?

He makes the occasional guest appearance, but I think his old body is knackered & he likes a bit of cut in the ground!

Are you going to play on Sunday Swansong?

Man City Over 35s will be looking to play some friendlies against Over 35 teams in March. Any teams interested then please PM me

Cheers

altrho i wont call city as a big team !![/quote]

No, never been a big club City, the fan base in Cockney Land, Wales & Cornwall is not as big as most teams. You mention the name 'City' & straight away you think of Coventry & Birmingham.....

City should forget about Torres & get rid of the ones mentioned above apart from Tevez & then buy Rooney. The rags need the money...

See Haweksy isnt only a chardonnay he is also a Milwall supporter.
