must win game for the nix tonight or we'll be looking at relegation.
GrrrrRivals
Win tonight's game and I'm likely for promotion, lose and it'll be out of my hands once again. C'mon Whips!
Highlands go 1-0 up.... hmmmm... Hope this doesn't go the way of our earlier game this season.
GrrrrRivals
A win here should make promotion reasonably safe.
But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Leilei has been injured in the 12th minute.
Doesn't look good either
oh dear, 0-0 after 20 for nix vs naenae
Soren puts The Trains up 0 - 1 against Sky Valley...
1-0 to naenae.....
And Los Halcones score, now we have to score without our str striker, this could be trouble.
FFS getting killed, what is it with me and the fever league

I think it is that you are pussies... either that or you are the league's whipping boys.
GOAL!!!! Allbeury through to Dee, in on goal and past the keeper 1-1 and it is tied up before the half.
half time still 1-0, need my lads to step up second half.
Melddahl gets one back, a draw would be huge from here.
And Syred makes a tackle as the last man, and is sent from the field, Fafe down to 10 men game still tied at 1-1, and a typical rivalry game.
Vicelich puts it through to Atkinson, he's in on goal...he shoots and SCORES!!! Fafe take the lead 2-1
Melddahl gets one back, a draw would be huge from here.
Yeah a draw for you would be massive. And a good result for me as well...
Highlands down to 10, C'mon Whips! Or is this just false hope....
MELDDAHL! 2-2!
Rood! 3-2!
YES! If current scores stay the same at the end then I've got promotion :D
Melddahl gets his hat-trick to make it 4-2, but Highlands get one back, 4-3.
Melddahl! 4 goals, 1 assist and it is now 5-3. Division records are being broken by this man.
85'
Classy touch…Khandallah Lokomotiv with the ball outside the box
L. Green flights one into the box!
But can H. Appleford shut him down?
It's in the area!
A. Brock powers a header at goal
Get in my son - WHAT A GOAL!!
1-2! 1-2! 1-2!
Singing on the Train in full voice now!
? Who are ya...Who are ya!! ?
Tim Hickey heads home a third deep into injury time. 1 - 3 to The Trains.
That makes it 3 - 2 - 3 head to head all time.
6-3.... what an encounter.
It ends, 6-3, Melddahl with 4 goals and 2 assists, aka the best ever performance from a Whip. Single-handedly won us the game and put me this close to promotion.
Makes it a tight battle at the top, with promotion nearly wrapped up. a 3-3 draw (3 injury time goals 90, 92 & 94) between Fafe & LHL leaves the table like this:
Whips 13pts
Fafe 12pts
LHL 5pts (Cannot be promoted)
Elite 4pts
Highlands 4pts
Whips, Fafe & LHL each have 2 games left, Highlands & Elite 3 games. Whips vs Fafe is the next round, no matter the result it will also make it impossible for Elite & Highlands to win the Div 4 title. Fafe remains unbeaten with a 3-3-0 record through 6 games.
Premiership
Peow FC 3 - 0 Surge Thunder FC
Tawa AFC 3 - 1 Battle Hill F.C
Division 4
Waikato Whippingboys 6 - 3 Highlands FC
Los Halcones Locos FC 3 - 3 AD Fafe
Division 4
So with the table the way it is things have become extra interesting.
1) The Champion will be either Waikato Whippingboys or AD Fafe as they play each other tonight, and no matter the result at least one of them is then out of reach of all others.
2) Los Halcones are out of the promotion race as the maximum points they can get to is 11pts (Bye this week)
3) Elite FC & Highlands FC need to win all remaining games & hope Fafe lose both games or Whips lose both and they can make up the goal difference.
4) Tonight Elite & Highlands play, a draw would knock them both out of promotion, any other result will see the loser knocked out of the race.
5) Whipping Boys & AD Fafe play in a match that will see one of them promoted, a draw will see Whippingboys guaranteed, while the winner will be guaranteed promotion.
Looking forward to this exciting end to the season.
Yep, division 4 always delivers!
Nice write up.
Predicting some goals tonight, as I can never stop Leilei from scoring. Will take a draw but its too hard to call. Fancy both our chances of promotion regardless, in which case I'll miss Div 4, but I want the title.

Would be a huge fall in form for us to miss promotion from here, and goals will probably flow tonight.
The H2H record between the two clubs is 5-5-5, though AD Fafe probably has the historical edge in first team games. In the Yellow Fever League, the scores have been 1-1, 1-1, 1-0, 0-1 and 0-0, so maybe the #YFcurse hits us in our encounters. Should be close no matter what.
