Thought I might start a thread for anybody who is actually playing at the moment, so that you can post how you go. We have a your cricket forum and while this obviously isn't as popular thought I may as well start one up.

Going to start this on a great note.

Spoiler: Offensive language

I just witnessed the most psychotic display of parenting ever in our soccer match. The other team were from Ipswich (derelict area of Brisbane) and all of the parents were derros with missing teeth who went absolutely ballistic at the referee every thirty seconds.

We have a few black kids in our team and one of their fathers is the assistant coach, he gets a bit carried away sometimes.. like when our guy has the ball he will yell "GO, GO, RUN" etc. except this was the first team to take exception to it.. their parents would yell "SHUT THE fearsome tweak UP" to him and even one of their kids while on the field yelled to him "SHUT UP YOU tweaking IDIOT". They were absolute psychos, went crazy. In the first half when I was playing up front we were down 3-1 early and their centre back, a fairly short kid was screaming at the referee, calling him an effing ████████ and the likes. I didn't realise what these guys were like yet, so being the pacifist I am I just said "Mate, you guys are up 3-1, just don't worry about it and play". This kid then says to me "fearsome tweak you ████, you don't tweaking scare me and don't tweaking tell me what to do".. so I replied "Settle down mate". Of course he was then like "Don't tweaking tell me to settle down you tweaking ████".. I was smiling at this stage at this little dick's behaviour.. then the ball came down, was a ████ ball so the same guy got it and ran it out of defence.. then ran past me, elbowed me in the back "Suck ████". This is a kid who was like three quarters my size, an absolute ****tard though you could see it in the way he looked.

So I decided to drop it, fortunately at the time even though I didn't know what retards the parents were. After half-time we were still 3-1 down so their parents were not really angry, but then we scored two quick goals and had all the momentum when it was 3-3.. then they went tweaking psycho. There was this guy with a long ponytail and who looked kinda like Dog the Bounty Hunter who would scream "fearsome tweak YOU, ████████" and "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU" to the referee, who was a volunteer adult guy. Then there was this other ****** with about three teeth and a cap who had tattoos all down his legs and arms and was skinny as ████ who would yell to our black coach "SHUT THE fearsome tweak UP, YOU THINK YOU ARE A tweaking COMMENTATOR OR SOMETHING?" Some of the guys in our team do go down a bit quickly after a tackle and so then after a few of them their team would pretend to dive and cry and then run up and give our coach the ups, to the delight of their parents who would laugh and scream "WELL DONE MATE". Things got worse though, they had a ball that didn't even go over the line but unfortunately we had some youngish girl linesman who was obviously just learning but she was actually an official.. of course the parents all screamed at her and she got so intimidated that she would give everything against us. Once we scored and then the flag stayed down the entire time, until about 10 seconds after when the parents started screaming at her and yelling abuse and she sort of half-raised the flag, so the referee disallowed the goal.

Then when they scored to make it 4-3, another one of their ****** kids ran over to our black guy and grabbed his crotch and pelvic thrusted from about 2m away, much to the delight of their parents once more who thought it was hilarious and continued to yell insults at us. We managed to score to make it 4-4, thankfully it finished full-time. One of their kids mooned the referee after we scored, and then the same little ****** that I was dealing with earlier got told to shut his mouth by the referee.. of course their parents were all like "DONT LISTEN TO THAT ████████ JIMMY" and he made a circle with his hand on his forehead to the referee, the universal ████████ symbol. If we won I'd imagine the ref would've been bashed seriously, and possibly the only reason he didn't was that there was an ambulance there after a kid broke his ankle taking a corner on our ████ ground. They were absolute psychos, they are the sort of people that would bash up kids and referees.. their coach looked like the biggest bogan ████ ever.

Needless to say, none of their kids shook hands.. I didn't really want to take the initiative, one of them would probably try and throw in a right hook or something or their parent would come over and bash me but they walked straight off the field away from us while their parents yelled insults at the referee. Not to mention that they had some Iraqi or Saudi Arabian parents who were screaming abuse all the time and swearing at our players.. I wonder if it was one of our players who had've grabbed his crotch at their team, he would've been bashed no question. They also had three players sent off which didn't help their cause, whenever the ref would call them over though they would just say "fearsome tweak off" and walk away, and he sent two of them off for this.

I got out of there so fast after the game. It was chaos.

But wait, the best thing. This was an Under 15 Division 3 soccer match, between 4th and 5th. One of the lowest standards you could even find.

Woooow. :D
 
What the heck is with people these days :facepalm
How do you even play against people like that
I usually stand up for myself taking advantage of my size (no i'm not fat) but i'd prolly get bashed there
 
You would've stayed in the centre of Auckland, one of the close suburbs though. At some of the rugby games in South Auckland, some of the spectators can get violent. Even at games between leading schools in the centre of Auckland, fights occur sometimes. Not sure about soccer games, but it does happen at rugby games.

Yeah, could you imagine these fellas at a rugby match?

We stayed fairly close to the airport in the city I think, near a university. So probably didn't encounter this sorta stuff.
 
My Football story: I haven't played for around 5 years since I was in intermediate school. One memory I have though is when I was about 6 I think, and the guys we were playing seemed like they were around 8-9, they were much bigger than us (or it could have been I was very small). They were much better than us by any means anyway. That was also the days when you would rotate between all the different positions, and today I was in goal. (having the smallest person in goal is not the best idea.). It was also pouring with rain and very cold. I think they won 4-1 eventually. Not very clear on that seeing as it was so long ago. I did however save one goal however. It hit me square in the face and deflected to another team mate who kicked it away.

It hurt a lot. But I saved it :)

The airport is about 40 minutes away from the city lol. Unless you stayed in Manukau which is near the airport and has a university (kinda. Manakua institute of technology). That's in South Auckland.

That would be a incredibly aggressive rugby match lol

I can't really remember how long it took to get to the airport, might have been a while. I can remember that we were also fairly near the Auckland Hilton hotel, about five minutes away on foot.

Now that I think about it I don't think it was a university that we were near, perhaps just a park or something that I remember running through. Had a lot of young student-looking people near though.
 
You probably were in the city, near Albert Park and the university.
 
Ahh the good old times of youth football. Had many a game like the one you described Blake. The best game was at U18s two seasons back where there were 3 red cards in total, 2 for them and 1 for us. Had plenty of fights against a bunch of dickheads who all think they were as hard as nails. Always made for interesting weekends.

God I miss playing football :p
 
Don't play Sunday league (11 a side) football because I'm not good enough, but I play 5 a side with mates pretty much every week. It's really good. It's great to see how much we've all improved over the past year and a half just by playing regularly. It's great fun but I get exhausted after about 10 minutes :p
 
Scored more own goals than goals back in junior football. So, naturally, with my eye for a goal went up front when I made my return this year. Strike rate that would make even Brian Clough embarassed.
 
Haven't played sunday league for a while now.

Starting 5-a-side up with the housemates when we move in. I'm a quality keeper in 5-a-side, but I'm a form player. My form dips in and out mid game.

If I make a good save early I will literally be unbeatable unless I make a mistake, once I make a mistake though I tend to dwell on it, start overcompensating and over-think things and completely fall apart. I basically do a Leeds midmatch.

My current tally this year:

Own goals: 1
Goals: 0

I've hit the post once from a long shot, had goalie beat. Also smacked a header into the crossbar from a corner with goalie nowhere near, and I hit a great volley which the goalie fingertipped over the bar... yet I cannot score.

I can not score. I play centre defence but I wouldnt mind a goal all the same.
