Spurs & Bros Drolet Sink Nanaimo The D3B VW Spurs hosted Nanaimo Saturday and called up D4 VW Casuals Jordan Roberts and brothers, Tony & Joey Drolet, into the fray. Andy Galewitz started the Wests on the right foot before Joey Drolet added the squads second. Jeevan Manhas added a third before the visitors managed to score. Big Brother Tony Drolet added the Wests fourth to compound the visitors misery. It was an entertaining match on a brilliant Saturday afternoon, keeping the Spurs in 'the hunt' for the title. Final 4-2 Vic West.

Darkside Dumps D1 Men Crap! And more crap! The Prez made his coaching debut with the D1 Men in the absence of suspended Mark Brittain. The fact that the Evil Empire was the opposition, made the scenario delicious. Unfortunately there was no fairy tale finish to the story. The Wests were the superior team on the night, but some horrible defending kept them from collecting the points. It was another entertaining affair for the neutrals, with SIX goals counted. Unfortunately four of them were for THEM! Aaron Murphy and VW Man of the Match, Keegan Varney scorded for the homeside, but it was nae enough. Final 4-2 Not Vic West.

BIG Win For D1 FC Women The D1 Vic West FC Women hosted the first place Castaways FC at Finlayson Friday night. Rachel MacAtee was the goal hero while 'team defence' shut down the visitors offence. The result? The Wests narrowed Castys division lead to a single point. Woo Hoo! Final 1-0 Vic West.

Devastation At Uvic For United Women Oh the horrors! The D1 Vic West United Women hosted Nanaimo United at UVic Friday night and it was the visitors who immediately raced out in front. The Wests tried to catch up but in the end, couldn't. Lorraine Russell got the Wests goal. It must have been the unfamiliar surroundings; yeah, that's it... Final 3-1 Nanaimo.

Prem Women Night To FORGET! The Premier Wommen 'hosted' Gorge FC at Hampton Friday night. You know....I don't think we'll talk about this one. One team got their butts kicked and they weren't wearing black & white. Rachelle Armstrong got the 'lone' VW goal. Final 5-1 Not Vic West. Oh the HORROR...

Auld Bhoys & Lakers Fit To Be Tied The O40 Scottish Men hosted Prospect Lake Wednesday night looking to rebound from last weeks loss. Paul de Paoli opened the scoring for the Wests before the visitors responded with a pair of ugly, ugly goals(was there a KLANG?). The teams were on level terms again, after Mike Murray converted a de Paoli cross. The lads pushed for the winner but alas, it was nae ta bae. Final 2-2 <p> By Klang I assume you mean the goalkeeper for Vic West f........g up whilst trying to clear his lines. I would like to say in his defence that............no actually I dont have a defence. That's why there is a place to drink after the game to forget about these things.
