The First Word My blood is red… and gold!

It’s been an interesting season and a lot has changed since our first round match against Wainuiomata. On that day at Richard Prouse we never got out of first gear and Wanuiomata “wanted the game” more and their 2-0 victory was seen as a major upset. Well since that lesson on the 20th April we’ve remained unbeaten in the league. Today the team needs no motivation to improve on their first round performance.

Wainuiomata sit in 9th spot but as already proven on their day can match it with any side. Playing at Hutt Park however suits our expansive style and we’ve fashioned an impressive record this season. Injuries are also crucial to any side and we’re travelling quite well in that regard. Steve Gulley is close to full fitness and apart from a few niggles we’re fit for the season run-in.

And player combinations are crucial with our “newbies of 2013”gelling well. Also in the last couple of weeks we’ve seen the return from the States of Regan Steele. The boys enjoying the 1st team’s “horsie night” fundraiser. Welcome home Regan!

It’s interesting to hear around football circles the criticism of club’s 1st teams—their “take” mentality and their lack of support for their respective clubs. I know this isn’t the case at Wainuiomata with their strong club ethos and it’s definitely not at Stop Out. As an example our 1st team, managers, coaches and partners organise one or two functions each year. These are not only good fundraisers but also a great opportunity for the boys to give back to the club. It’s much appreciated and also helps “muzzle” the small group of whingers who like to fire potshots at the Premiers!

Stop Out is a club with a proud history and is enjoying some great success on and off the pitch. The club executive are driven to keep that balance with success not only measured by results on the field but also by the enjoyment our players and supporters feel with a fantastic atmosphere and welcoming environment within our club. Stop Out are built on those values and we won’t sway from that focus. So enjoy the football today and enjoy our Stop Out hospitality! Regan before going to College... And now he’s home! 3 With coaches Simon Harrold and Besim Balicevac Chris Canton, Stop Out President. If anyone was in any doubt as to whether our season was going well Raffa’s Stats need only compare 2012 to 2013. In 2012 we ended the season on 25 points and scored 32 goals. This year we are already on 26 points and have scored 40 goals—with still seven matches to play! And we continue to play well at Hutt Park going twelve matches undefeated; in fact not dropping a point! Seven wins in 2012 and five wins already in 2013. 49 goals for (4.08 per game) 9 goals against (0.75 per game) 4 clean sheets. Scoring 5 or more goals—5 times against Miramar(2) Wgtn Utd(2) Olympic.

Women’s Capital Premier Women’s Capital Premier 1.00pm July 7th Hutt Park 1 Stop out vs University

A chance to close out the season tomorrow as our Women’s Premier team host Victoria University – victory in the penultimate round will wrap up the title for our young team.

The University team like our girls have been free scoring this winter, in just 12 games they have bagged 54 goals, our girls some 51 goals. Chris Canton approves and is pleased to note that the difference is in the defences of the two teams; our goal difference is +45, theirs is +36. After last week’s clean sheet against Lower Hutt (5-0) the team has now gone 675 minutes of football without conceding a goal.

Also for the trainspotters, the team takes to the field with a run of 11 consecutive wins in the league, a run that goes back to the second week of the season after an opening day 0 –1 loss to BNU

Our team is a mix of young faces…and even younger faces! The Class of 2013 does include a few who were members of the squad in 2011 when we last won the Premier League title.

Kathryn Burt, Mel Macdougall, Mel Adams, Alysa Darby, Laura Dobie, Steph Bremner, Amalia Lipidis, Kelsey O’Connor, Kath McGuinness, Natasha Ingram and Sophie Burley have already tasted Premier’s success and were part of the team that went 13 games undefeated as they took out the 2011 title holding off the challenge of two clubs; Waikanae & North Wellington.

This year we add the following players who are keen to see off the challenge of University & BNU this winter; Madison Bibby, April Gallagher, Danielle Duggan, Aimee Sanson, Adele Lonergan, Olivia Browne, Jade Morrissey, Sian Feeney, Christine Hosie, Maddy Nash & Janae Bellman.

So tomorrow on Hutt #1, kick off 1:00pm – the girls would love a good crowd on the sidelines, and of course the clubrooms will be open afterwards.

Women’s update

Elsewhere, the Divison 1 team remain third in the league and host Upper Hutt at 11am tomorrow with a home game at Memorial Park. NME ELECTRICAL D3 lead their league but have the BYE this weekend and will remain top no matter what the results across the division.

The D2 Reds under the guidance of Dean Bowden head to Wests, keen to dust off the cobwebs of two weeks of postponements and looking for a good result.

What is fantastic is that each of the four womens teams remain in contention to win their respective leagues and/or gain promotion. It really highlights that the Stop Out Women’s development programme is one of, if not the best within our region.

And the philosophy of building the player base with a youth focus has definitely paid dividends for the Women’s Management team. Our four teams makes us equally the largest Women’s club within the region. Yes across our wider squad we have on average the youngest players within the Womens leagues however it’s not just youth, but talent that wins football matches.

And it must be noted there are a few mature players dotted throughout the teams.

Expect some big things from our women players in the coming years! Exciting times!

The task of selecting the best Stop Jim Blair’s Stop Out Dream Team Out team can be classified as virtually impoosible.

I am therefore going to take a different approach and will firstly list the 1956 winning team as the template for my dream team. I am starting with that team as the pinancle of performance and achievement for all clubs in New Zealand is to win that final goal: the Chatham Cup.

I have also restricted my selection to only include plaers Ia ctually witnessed and those that I played Frank Jeromsen with and against.

1956 Chatham Cup team Jim’s Dream Team

Dennis Hudson Graeme Peterson

James Neuman Jim Blair Maurice Tillotson Jim Blair

Frank Jeromsen Frank Jeromsen

George Smith Hank Grootelaar George Drylie Hank Grootelaar

Fred Benge John Sharp Fred Benge Wynton Rufer

Derek Gentry Brain Sergent John Sharp Reg Singer

Bram Schryvers Geoff Brand

This side includes 8 Wellington reps, 1 This side included 11 Wellington reps Canterbury rep and 5 NZ reps and 10 NZ reps.

Only Frank Jeromsen did not gain New Zealand selection, but makes my Dream team because of his captaincy as well as his playing ability. Frank captained Stop Out teams for a record 20 seasons. He was also the “rock of our defence”, particularly in our Chatham Cup years. I have also moved John Sharp to the right wing position where he played most of his games for New10 Zealand. Reg Singer has been included on the left wing position, particularly with his ability to score goals. George Drylie is also included at wing half and Maurice Tillotson gains selection as the other fullback. I was always impressed with Graeme Peterson in goal and he has been the best goalkeepr I saw in my senior playing days.

Mike Barton in his selection of his best Stop Out team selected a 4-4-2 syatem. There is much debate around the various playing systems used in modern football, but I have remained loyal to the system played by the players selected in their era.

I was amazed to read a comment by the New It’s interesting to look at the system used back in Zealand All Whites coach Ricki Herbert that he the 1950’s. It would look like this: would adopt the 3-4-3 system if he had the right players available to play the system. His team HB=Half Backs. IF Inside Forwards. CF Centre would line up like this; Forward

X X

X X X 3 BACKS 2 FBs & 1 CH X X X

X X 4 MIDFIELD 2 HBs & 2 IFs X X X X (2 HOLDING) X X

X X X 3 STRIKERS 2 Wings & 1CF X X X

You will see that both systems have similar positions but with a naming difference only in the positions being used. In effect Ricki Herbert’s revolutionary new system is actually the old style W-M formation used many years ago.

My selection has been based on using what I have always regarded as the best defensive system for any team, and this is purely and simply an all-out attacking system. To confirm just how effective this system can be, I will include a summary of the six games played in the Chatham Cup:

Stop Out v Petone 3-1

Stop Out v University 5-4

Stop out v Wests 4-1

Stop out v Masterton 7-3

Stop Out v E Suburbs 7-3

Stop out v Shamrock 4-1

30 –13

John Sharp11 slides in against Miramar at the Basin Reserve To finally show you the effectiveness of an attacking system, below is a summary of the decade breakdown of goals. Most important is to look at the goal difference

Steve’s 1st team Match Reports

Stop Out vs Island Bay, 22nd June 2013,Wakefield 3-3 draw (Gaughan 3)

Island Bay was always going to be a big game, with them sitting four points behind us on the table and being a contender for the title, a result today was crucial. Add the fact that our game was moved due to a tree being blown over in the storm, and that the storm was still happening as the game kicked off, we had an interesting day at the office ahead.

With 100km southerlies blowing across the ground, the game kicked off and what can only be described as a game of ‘force-back’ took place. Island bay adapted to the conditions better than we did, turning us round at any chance, while we were attempting to play some kind of passing game. We soon realised this was not possible.

Ten minutes in Island bay won a corner. The corner was played in which we managed to clear to their player on the edge of the box, Howellsy made a good save from the initial effort, with the rebound fallingto the feet of their striker who put it away. From here we started to play to the conditions, turning Island bay around and keeping them in their half. Fizz received the ball on halfway and went on a mazy run towards the box, where he picked out Joe who rounded the keeper and equalised with a great finish. A great response which was short- lived, before long we were behind again. A ball in behind our back four saw the Island bay winger run onto it and bury the finish to put them up 2-1. For the rest of the half we put some pressure on, but were unable to equalise again, going into halftime behind.

Second half we came out firing and with the wind being so strong, playing slightly into it played into our hands. Packer and Gaughy were starting to combine well and Gaughy was causing some problems. Pack played the ball into Gaughys feet who managed to turn his marker and smash a 30 yard volley into the back of the net, a brilliant finish to equalise.

From here we really dominated and before long Gaughy had got himself into more dangerous areas, first hitting the crossbar, then being brought down and winning a penalty. Gaughy stepped up to put the penalty away and put us 3-2 up.

For the next 20 minutes we battled and battled to grind out the result, and we were 2 minutes away from doing it when Island bay won a corner. The corner was floated to the back post, with us unable to clear, the ball was somehow played back in and the wind carried it into the back of our net! A 3-3 draw, while gutted to concede late, a point wasn't a bad result considering the conditions.

Stop Out vs Miramar Rangers, Sat 29th June, Hutt Park 1, 7-0 Gaughan 4, Burnett, Maluvik, Theron

Miramar came to Hutt Park today off the back of a 10-0 win last week, this was all themotivation we needed to turn up ready to play. Miramar have a mix of experience andyouth that make them a tough opposition every year.

We started the game brilliantly, with our passing through the midfield fantastic, and our 3 up front combining well. Within 3 minutes we got the ball out to Ed who beat his man and whipped in a perfect cross to the back post where Gaughy placed a perfect header into the top corner. Exactly the start we wanted. It got better from here and after 10 minutes we were 3-0 up. First Eddie was played in on the right where he cut in and slid a neat finish under

the keeper, then from a corner, Micky buried a great header. We were in unstoppable form. Miramar started to come into the game as the half wore on, but our defending was fantastic, something we had really worked on during the week.

After some Miramar pressure we broke wide and Eddie once again beat his man then whipped in aperfect cross to Gaughy again who smashed a volley in to put us 4-0 up.

Our goal at halftime was to keep a clean sheet, and we came out in the second half determined. Miramar had made a couple of substitutes, and they came out playing a much better game, starting to create a few chances of their own. We soaked up the pressure well and were causing all sorts of problems on the break.

It wasn’t long before we had puttwo more goals away, almost in identical counter attacks. Gaughy first buried a great finish into the bottom corner, then dinked an even better finish over the diving keeper. Another master class in finishing from Gaughy.

We brought Jake on and he immediately started getting into dangerous positions, and from one of these he cut in from the right and put a long range effort into the bottom corner. A 7-0 win and our best performance of the yearcoming at a good time with a big few weeks ahead of us. 14 MOM Joe Gaughan

The Last Word! Life-long Stop Out fan Mike Barton Out of our League gives us his personal view on the beautiful Last weekend in Capital Two, the same league game! that our second team play in, Upper Hutt City’s second team beat Douglas Villa eleven goals to one. Villa had, in their first ten games, conceded just sixteen goals. A Villa fan commented on the Yellow Fever forum that they “only recognised 5 players from the first time we played them”. As the Central League teams strengthen their squads the effect is that their second teams are getting stronger and this is having an impact on the leagues these teams play in. In some cases the argument might be made it is marked but in the case of others, here I am thinking in Capital Premier, not so. There are currently four second teams playing in Capital Premier. That bothers me in that Capital Premier is Wellington’s top league and dominated in that way.

To be candid I am a bit stuck for answers on the matter. One of my pet rants has been that there should be no second teams in the top four leagues. That then raises the question of whether there are enough clubs to supply teams and the answer simply is there is not. Roughly we have about eighteen clubs in the Wellington region. If that is the case then we would have, say, two leagues of nine which gives us sixteen games a season plus a bye round every week. A bye and sixteen games a season just does not cut it in my opinion.

My muddled thinking just includes the clubs that play in the Capital Football competition. So the next step is to think about clubs outside of that net. This makes me think back to the old days of a much more comprehensive Central League. From memory, the Central League went to three divisions. Certainly times change and whether there would be the appetite for that, remembering travel time and money, remains to be seen. My preference is for something that was suggested to me today. That is, a Central League Division Two. This would take five of the Capital Premier

League clubs, clearly without a team in the Central League already and five teams from the central region.

Opinions differ but I do not think our current model is all that clever. That may just be an emotional response. Take this as an example though, I am not sure how the rules work but what if the four second teams in Capital Premier at the end of the season finished in the top four spots. Would it really be acceptable for a fifth placed team to enter the end of season playoff? I think not.

It is my opinion that the current model is broken and is need of repair. You may agree or it may be the case that you disagree but I think it may be a discussion worth having.

Lastly, yes, I know the old adage that you can only play the team in front of you.
