Who ever wins that game will be in tough to win the rematch....

But all this talk about a very quick and jinky Indo forward (Sahil has been awesome), but is he confirmed for the Provincials?.... doesn't his youth team have a say to who he is cup tied with?....

Still up in the air, Defector.......on top of that, there is another small quick forward we're in the process of signing for the weekend. We should know by the end of the day. If Sahil is not there for Sunday, we will battle just as hard........that part of the game will not change. I think it is possible for one of the two teams to win both games..........I just HOPE to fcuk it is us.

HOS,

Both teams, I'm guessing will go at each other the same way in each game. To win the Imperial Cup would be MASSIVE for us but I have a feeling it is just as important to Surrey United since they've been there 3 times before and not won. Ironically, if I'm not mistaken, the year SU came into the league Indo won the Imperial Cup that year against Westside, and then went on to beat Westside in the provinicials?????? Let's hope for repeat this year...

Captain,
Goodluck this weekend. However, I think a dose of reality is deserved. I watched the majority of your match against Sporting, and from my humble opinion, your lucky to be in the final. Sporting had 4 to 5 glorious chances to finish that game.

Yes, you're absolutely right. We are the luckiest team in the world right now. We have been lucky for the past 4 weeks. Hopefully we can keep the game close and get a bit of luck because luck is what wins games all the time. I hope to fcuk our luck continues this weekend. I wish we had that luck over the entire season because SU definitely wasn't lucky in the last game we played against each other. Not at all.


And thanks for wishing us good luck. We're going to rely heavily on luck so the luck you have offered can only go towards making us more competitive.

I think someone is a little too sensitive.

This is the problem with the VMSL... Not enough teams have ties with youth clubs that actually have their own facilities!!! Shitty old bad grass pitches will turn your league into a friday night lights on turf league!!! GAY

The city of Surrey has full park facilities (good grass, turf, changerooms with showers and doesn't monitor drinking) that anyone would be envious of... As a result, the standard in the FVSL is picking up as well...

Updated grass facilities was just something I found VERY frustrating in the VMSL.

Interesting development.

Due to a contractual issue with his current employer, it appears that Dave Morris will be ineligible to play in Round 2 versus Langley if they advance.

Likely not going to make a huge difference, but any advantage a valley club can gain over a VMSL squad helps.

That's life........but it will mean **** all if we don't beat Surrey United anyway.


His current employer is Soccerwest by the way. Have they put the clamps on him playing?

Perhaps Soccerwest wants employee's that know fukc all about soccer so that they try to sell you the newest advancement in coloured boots.

Kind of like the soccer shop that would hire knut.

Just saw Morris at the shop, and he was telling me that Millar better keep his head up this weekend, should be a great final.

Actually I heard he is back training with the Caps and may sign as early as the weekend. Heard if everything goes well in the exhibition game against SFU he is signing and may be done for Sunday's Imperial Cup Final and all of Provincials. You know how the Caps don't like there players playing elsewhere.

Your right it's not gonna make a huge difference why would you want a professional in your line-up? Especially since he has shown he can put the ball in the back of the net after that dreadful PK miss.

[Gurps]

I heard Morris was going to start a new career as a goalie.

[Hands of Stone]

Well I am sure he would be at more training sessions than the two Indo keepers that are there now, Captain may start him.

It's funny because it's true........... in terms of the sessions. That's the problem when kids have night classes 3 times a week.
