Long time lurker, first time poster.
Great result for Vista, will make other teams respect us.
MJ lazy? I never noticed
In breaking news, I'll be at training on Tuesday.........need to chat to the b-team coach to get a me a gig on the bench, hopefully the experience needed to close out games will come in handy. Apart from the gaffer, am I the only survivor from our last title in 1994?????

Good to see Jimmy and Ali G having a good run of luck, well earned luck.
If its any help for you to know your young team gave the Downs a real hard contest pre season. I would suggest that you have been one of the better sides we have played this year. if you could pick up another avenall road or two you would give a few first div teams a run for the money. The Downs have a busy schedule this year but we would love to organise a night game between the clubs maybe for a trophy each year, maybe put on a band after the games. Our clubrooms are fantastic for bands to play at, something to do with accoustics. If Vista Buoy is M.O then get the pie warmer out. Good luck and keep winning.

I think this Result From Vista should not be taken Lightly. A 3-1 result over the Best attack in the league? would that not make Vista the better attack and defence in the league? I think that teams are going to find it hard to score against Vista and will continue to score against teams now they have figured out how to do so. Is PHE and Farm still favourites for the league?

Results have been so inconsistent in this league that I don't think a true picture of who are favourites will be determined until the end of round 9. However, Vista are in the mix having conceded only 2 goals in 5 games and, as you say, puttin a few in the old onion bag ourselves.Football_lad wrote:I think this Result From Vista should not be taken Lightly.

Vista, PHE and Ingle Farm - one of these sides will win the league. Remember a bad run of injuries a bad referee or just a general bad day came hurt a team. We have only played Ingle Farm - the other 4 teams we have played - West Beach, Fulham, Bosna and Limnos are all very beatable - despite the fact Limos gave us a bit of a hiding!

So If these 3 teams are the ones that you are tipping to win the league, which is a big prediction with the way that results are going and how tight the league is turning out to be, is there anyone that has seen PHE, Farm and Vista play? If so who is looking the Better team and will be harder to beat. I think that West Beach could also been thrown into contention they are going to be a very tough team to take 3 points from especially at home.

Vista Defence
What happens when Vista's "unbeatable" keeper joins the Army and leaves the club soon? You'll see a few more goals go in against Vista and with their weak attack they'll soon drop off. The three goals against PHE on weekend came from defensive errors (failure to clear the ball in slippery conditions). All four goals of the match (including PHE's) were scored in the six yard box. So saying their attack is better than East's isn't really accurate. Most of the shots on the weekend were pretty much at the keepers. Without a confident and quality keeper like Carmen in goal, Vista will definetly concede more and still not score many.

We only wanted Andy Carmen so we could use his big tv for FA Cup Final night. It's a bonus that he's not a bad keeper aswell.Lost_N_found@@VISTA wrote:A fair call by Sweet Mate productions. Andy Carman played well as it is all relative. The PHE keeper was next to useless. Was he found in the carpark pre game? A strong performance by the Vista boys. Still some fine tuning to take place but this year could very possibly be the year.
yes its true that AC has lifted the attitude of the squad but as far as things go last year we began the year with a good defensive record.against PHE we played well,and perhaps they didn't but the 3 points belong to us either way.And as for the 2 teams going up i think it will be many weeks before that can be tipped.Well done the vista boys work hard and earnt the points.Lost_N_found@@VISTA wrote:A fair call by Sweet Mate productions.

The young boys said unto him....."go up baldhead, go up"......so he did, rose like a salmon and nodded the ball into the net......1 nil! 

GO vista what a good win for you lads well done! but i think the small pitch would of helped you guys! i still believe have one of the best attacks in the amatuer league. i was really impressed with the young tall striker PHE played up front against modbury on sunday. Vista dominated the game though through the midfield. i still believe the title will go to either PHE or Ingle Farm!

Yes, Peds is playing the best football I've ever seen him play. Has cut out the disciplinary problems (eg, mouthing off to referees) and is 100% focussed on his game now. Missed a couple of sitters earlier in the season but now he's scoring goals and bringing others into play, long may it continue.robinfriday wrote:has peds made a difference to your lineup avenell?

Come on lads, I think your pulling at straws here, your current keeper is very good. I remember when he was asked to trial in England many years ago when I was playing at Enfield City (I don’t think he ever went, something to do with a work visa and his age, not sure). You couldn’t actually think your reserves keeper will be able fill in his boots. He could get all the training in the world and he won’t even get his close to his ability.
