Are you talking about for a particular division or our own club?

If you refer to the club, then at Ingle Farm I would say

Coach: Paul Simpson. He has been there 7 years and won a few trophies so easy one.
Player: I think it would be a tie between Chris Ennis and Anthony Staltari. Both have won a lot of awards from coaches, supporter and players so both stand out to me.

To break it down further

Team Man of the decade: Anthony Staltari with Brendan Altus not far behind.
Forward: Torsten Rutter just in front of Paul Jones.
Midfielder: Very hard to pick. We have had quite a number of good midfielders but they haven't been at the club for a longer period of time.
Defender: Chris Ennis
Goal Keeper: Rob Greenwood

Salisbury Inter won Div 1 twice, cup twice and 5 consecutive chicken cup appearances.
Then in 2nd half of decade got relegated twice and won div 2. How things change.

You'd have to put Alan Mottram (coach) and Bert Fuda (player) and with a hint of bias the Downs (Team) and (Club)..
The next decade will belong to Southern Knights

I was only referring to my club.

As for the Divison as a whole, probably hard to go past Inter, again.

Dunno, Id say Downs or Vale, not Inter, Inter won 2 leagues, so did Sowns but Downs didnt get relegated at all,

Vale won league and cups,

Inter won 2 cups and 2 league titles though. Plus they won a Divison 2 title.

downs won cup in 04, league and champions of champs in 06 and 07. hard to top.

Surely Adel Villa would rate a mention?

Won Sun Div 2, Sun Div 1 & Sat Div 3 & Sat Div 1

yes and you just mentioned them

How many leagues and cups did Vale win?

blue moon · Post by **blue moon** » Tue Nov 24, 2009 3:44 pm

the amateur leauge web-site should have a history section, listing all past winners of league and various cups.

Hopefully I'll be working on it in the new year.

Going by the 4 clubs already mentioned (Vale, Downs, Inter & Adelaide Villa) it has probably been the only decade where one club hasn't dominated.

Previously there was the Vale of the 90's and Inter in the 80's.

MU Findon in the 70's
APAC in the 60's

Looking at that Swanny, I think Comets have more over Adelaide Villa. I'm going to change my vote to Elizabeth Vale, 2 titles and 3 Cups. Downs and 2 titles and 1 cup, Villa have 2 titles, Inter have 2 titles and 2 cups. Therefore the winner in Vale.

Well done Swanny, thought it would be Vale, followed by Downs,

Didn't realise until I looked back how Salisbury Inter were still in the mix....
2 x Sunday Division 1 Champions (+ 2 x Runners-Up)
Sunday Division 2 Champions
2 x Challenge Cup Winners
3 x Cichanowski Shields ( + Runners-Up )

I guess you need to give more weight to League Championships (18 games) and Challenge Cup (~5 games) as opposed to Cichanowski Shield and Champion of Champions which rely on 1 game.

With no disrespect to Uncle Alby Soang who played for MU Findon in the 70's, I'd think that Gardens probably were the most successful club even doing the double double (A's & B's League & Cup) in 1975.
1971 - Div2 League (promotion Div 1 first time)
1973 - Div1 League & Reserves Cup
1974 - Cup Winner
1975 - Div1 League & Cup; Reserves League & Cup
1976 - Reserves Cup
1977 - Reserves League
1978 - Div1 League (joint winner) & Cup Rup; Reserves League
1979 - Reserves League

But football was still around Jimmy, we didn't all jump on the bandwagon when AU came along.

With 3 stand alone Division 1 Championships and a Runners-Up, I would lean more toward M.U.Findon as Team of The Decade 1970-1979....also took out Division 1 B&F 4 times and 2 Templin Cups.
*M.U.Findon also won a Division 3 title in 1973 and also won Division 1 again in 1980.

Not entirely true, Parafield finished bottom of Division 1 in 1969. They had been in Division 1 since their inception as there was only one division back then.
