Be Warned, This Will Happen in Wellington This Winter!

Football starts this weekend for me as the team I manage (Marist Skins) take on the Petone formerly JJs at Kilbirnie Park at 12:30pm. We have added some spark from last year as the older team members slowly hang up the boots making way for newbies to take over the mantle. I have no doubt that this will happen somewhere around Wellington this season. Polish keeper Artur Boruc did nothing to enhance his reputation against Northern Ireland. It is similar to English keeper Paul Robinson's gaffe against Croatia, but not as bad as the ball boggled uncontrollably higher and this match was a friendly compared with the pressure cooker England vs Croatia in 2006. Given the poor state of the capital's football fields, this is not beyond the realms of possiblity and hopefully we are not on the receiving end.
