All rise…all rise…

So we’ve done it, final result: FC Marbach II 1-0 Poppenweiler II…after missing a penalty and some quite good chances we were finally able to score around the 70th minute which secured our rise to Kreisliga B. Groovy :-)

Just came back from our little after-game party…the real party will follow on saturday…now it’s time to catch some sleep…night :-)

Championship…

…up in flames :-(

Unfortunately our competition didn’t miss on their opportunity to claim the championship, so our 13-1 win over Anadolu Marbach was pointless. Dersim Ludwigsburg won 1-0 over GSV Hoepfigheim II to claim the championship. Congrats to them. So now it’s up to us to win the relegation game on thursday which is scheduled for 18:30 in Neckarrems. Man, what a disappontment: not being the champion after losing only one game during the whole season :-(

The final table can be found here

I’ll keep you updated…

Championship on the line

After a long season it’s all coming to an end tomorrow. Footie is the name of the game and we’re in it for the Championship of the Kreisliga C – Staffel 2. The situation really isn’t all that good for us, but we’ve still got hope.

Tomorrow is the last round of the season and the table is looking like this:

  1. Dersim Ludwigsburg, 59 points, 83:14 goals
  2. FC Marbach II, 58 points, 85:20 goals
  3. GSV Hoepfigheim II, 49 points, 73:29 goals

The first placed team is the champion and directly rises to the next higher league while the second placed team will have to play a relegation game against the last but one of Kreisliga B (the next higher league). So, we’ve got the relegation game secured, but we want to be the champion badly as a relegation game is always 50/50.

The last games scheduled are:

  • FC Marbach II (2nd place atm) – Anadolu Marbach (which are in 10th place)
  • Dersim Ludwigsburg (1st place atm) – GSV Hoepfigheim (3rd place atm)

So we’ve still got hope as GSV Hoepfigheim is a really hard team to play (we tied both games with them) and they already pledged that they will try everything in there power:

A draw or win of Hoepfigheim along with an own win will clinch the championship. So, wish us luck…you’ll hear from me sometime tomorrow afternight/evening/night…

FC Marbach II 5-1 KSV Besigheim

On the hottest day yet it wasn’t a high-class match, but nontheless really entertaining. After going down 0-1 we were able to come back despite missing a penalty (which would have been the equalizer at that point). In the end our opponents ran out of gas and we were able to capitalize on the extra space…it really could have been a higher victory, but you don’t hear us complain:

We’re now at the top of the table – our main competitor Dersim Ludwigsburg didn’t have a match today, nontheless the pressure is on them now…

  1. FC Marbach II, 20 games played, 74:18 goals, 49 points
  2. Dersim Ludwigsburg, 19 games played, 58:13 goals, 47 points

Shopping spree

After buying a load of books yesterday, I also bought some dvds and an USB-stick…mostly due to a 15 Euro voucher I got for my birthday…

I ordered the following dvds:

  • Buffy Season 1 Collector’s Edition: Buffy - Season 1 - Collector's Edition
  • Matrix Reloaded: Matrix Reloaded (2 DVDs)

I guess it’s time to stop shopping for a while :wink:
(This post is not only for information purposes but also a test of the WP Amazon plugin…looking good as far as I can see…)

Tuerkspor Oberstenfeld II 2-3 FC Marbach II

Not a good match on the acre they call pitch…but a W is a W…the current leader (Dersim Ludwigsburg) only drew with KSV Besigheim (3-3), so we’re now only 1 point behind them with 5 matches remaining! The championship, which was out of reach two weeks ago, could become a reality after all – but only if we continue to win our matches!!!

How championship dreams…

…can go up in flames in less than a week. After the recent success in our first match after the winterbreak (12-0 vs Hochdorf) we lost against one of our main competitors (SC Ludwigsburg) 2-3 on saturday. Today we wanted to get back some points against SGV Hoepfigheim II, but we didn’t – instead we lost another two points by playing 1-1.

Now it’s not looking good at all: before the two matches we were only one point behind 1st place and were clear 4 points to 3rd place. Now we’re stuck in 2nd place (but only due to the fact that SC Ludwigsburg still has a game more to play) with the competition back in the game (SC Ludwigsburg did their homework today by winning 6-0) and the first place is out of reach for now (6points)…

Boy oh boy…

Current standings:

  1. Dersim Ludwigsburg – 14 games played – 37 points
  2. FC Marbach II – 14 – 31 points
  3. SC Ludwigsburg – 13 – 29 points
  4. TSV Ludwigsburg II – 13 – 26 points
  5. Türkspor Oberstenfeld II – 14 – 21 points
  6. GSV Höpfigheim II – 12 – 21 points
  7. TSV Neckargröningen II – 14 – 20 points
  8. KSV Besigheim – 14 – 19 points
  9. Anadolu Marbach – 14 – 14 points
  10. TV Aldingen II – 12 – 13 points
  11. SKV Erligheim II – 14 – 12 points
  12. SGV Hochdorf II – 14 – 6 points
  13. Spvgg Schlößlesfeld II – 12 – 3 points

FC Marbach II 2-2 TSV Affalterbach II

The last friendly match before the restart of the season was a good one, although the weather really played it’s tricks on us (it started snowing just before the start of the match and shortly after that the whole field was covered with snow).

Best thing: I came into the match at the end (around the 80th minute?!) and scored the 2-2 :mrgreen: :tup: :tup:

Indoor footie tournament

Update: I didn’t have the chance to post via my mobile phone…so here’s a quick wrap-up:

Won the first match 2-1
Won the second match 4-1 (I scored the 1-0)
Lost the remaining 5 matches, some of them due to dumb mistakes in the last seconds (you shouldn’t lose a match if you’ve got the ball and there’s only 7 seconds left on the clock).

All in all, not a bad day as we were the lowest ranked team in the tournament (usually our first team, which is playing 3 leagues above us, is playing this tournament).
End Update

Alrighty, it’s indoor footie time today. We’re playing the “Bottwartal-Turnier” today which puts all active soccer teams of the nearer surroundings up against each other. I just set up email-posting, hopefully you will have the chance to see my posts I will make during the day (via Email from my mobile phone) :mrgreen:

TSV Ludwigsburg II 1-1 FC Marbach II

Oh my :-(

Now that’s a bummer. After go ahead 1-0 in the first half we were unable to score the second goal despite having 2-3 100% chances :-(

Now we need to wait and see how the other teams played, but I guess it’s almost certain that our 4 point lead will be cut to 2…

Update: Or not…my oh my, everything went our way apart from our own game and performance, both Dersim Ludwigsburg and KSV Besigheim lost 3-1 today. So, we could have claimed the top with a win today…

Dersim Ludwigsburg reclaims the top

With us being free from play back to back, Dersim took it’s chances today and took over first place again with a 4-0 win over KSV Besigheim. Now the standings read:

  • 1. Dersim Ludwigsburg 23:3 goals 9 games played 25 points
  • 2. FC Marbach II 35:8 goals 9 games played 23 points
  • 3. KSV Besigheim 26:16 goals 9 games played 19 points

With three games remaining till the winter break we should try everything to get our 9 points which would be a sure 2nd place.

KSV Besigheim 1-2 FC Marbach II

Oooh yeah! Now that was a game.

We took the lead 1-0 after a nice effort by one of our strikers. After that we had numerous chances to go ahead even higher, but we blew them all. Then we had a penalty and the chance to make it 2-0 (and eventually seal the victory), but we blew that as well. In return KSV Besigheim took their one chance and leveled 1-1. With 22 minutes to good it took us some minutes to get our game back together and after missing another two to three great chances our efforts were rewarded with a second penalty – which we were able to capitilise on: 1-2!!! :-)

We were able to hold on to that missing some other chances to make the score even clearer. After this good effort we are now still on top of the league (23pts) with a four point lead over both KSV Besigheim and Dersim Ludwigsburg (with the game Dersim Ludwigsburg – KSV Besigheim still in the balance – it had to be postponed after the referee forgot to show up last week). Now everything is in our own hands with three games left until the winter break. We don’t have another game for the next two weeks so we’ve got enough time to relax a little and prepare for the next match which will be against TSV Ludwigsburg on November 28th.
