That discussion was held offline with Adam and several commissioners of the various leagues. Basically, the conversation occurred among those who were critical to the discussion process...probably why you didn't know about it.

Here is where things get really tough. MOT does battle with MID(Hi Yoav) in the Olmec Cup.
MID has 8 players with 30+SL and MOT has none but a lot of team spirit. Like some of the discussion in the forum here about the differences between the leagues, this is where it shows up the most.
However, MOT will be seeking revenge for MID beating out Mike's squad.

Have no fear MOT. Did you see the sesl cup tactics Yoav used on Saturday with STJ? MON romped game, and rightly so.

Keep us updated on Olmec Cup.

MOT Man- 03-05-2005
I still trying to figure out what happened in our recent Olmec Cup match.
It shows that MOT tied MID 1 - 1 but on the schedule MOT has advanced to the semi-final Olmec Cup round to play Proletarion Vanguard. I trust this is correct.

By the way, Proletarian V. has a GK with a skill level of 40. - Age 3.

Len,

What happened was indeed a 1 - 1 draw.

Shame on you for not bothering to read the match report SESL/sunshine.gif

So once the 90 minutes were all gone it was time for the penalty shoot out.

As anyone ever seen one with 10 wasted penalties? I think it's a world record. (Graham would have loved to see that happen on his INV match SESL/slapfish.gif )
In the end after both teams wasting their 5 penalty kicks, it was time for 1 shot rounds. My club missed and Motherwell scored. SESL/abigcry.gif

It is a good thing that MOT go through after a nice match. Wouldn't be quite happy if MID managed to kick both SESL teams out of the Olmec Cup. SESL/wink.gif

Good luck for the rest of the journey Len. I am sure MOT is more than capable in getting to final and win it!!!

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support.
MOT is playing to win this.

What a fairytale this could be, playing against a 40SL GK, MOT advance thanks to a faultless display of all action football, netting three times in the last few minutes to come from behind and win it 3-2

Dev supports YOU

MOT Man- 03-19-2005
Thanks, Dev.

I was totally shocked to find out that MOT had beaten PV. I did not expect it at all.
I must admit that I wasn't too confident.
POA whom MOT will be playing is quite good. I also play in SFLSL league and have played vs. POA before and have gotten absolutely creamed.
But this is a different story. I will try and do SESL proud.

Could inter-league play be resurrected in future?
