Lumberton vs. WO-S Game Thread

Lumberton 15 WOS 1

I personally believe that score is disgraceful.  Not for WOS, but for the Lumberton coach that allowed his players to continue scoring goals.  I have no connection to either team with the exception of coaching one of the Lumberton players in club soccer in the past. As a fan of the game I find this score offensive.

Cant ask a bench warmer not to score if he gets the chance.

You can get the benchwarmer in the game when the score is 5-1 and let him score then, as opposed to letting him get his goal when it's 14-1.

ok as a backup on the team.. are we supposed to work the ball down to the goal then kick it away from the goal out of bounds? or are we supposed to just pass the ball to WO-S? we are just playing soccer.. we just tried people at different positions to look and see whos going to be where next season..

Most coaches and trainers would tell their team to work on possession of the ball without attempting to score at every opportunity.  Granted, a game of keep away can also be humiliating for an overmatched team, but the score would not become ridiculous.

With all due respect, it's not that hard to "not score" without kicking the ball out of bounds.  Knock the ball around the defense a bit.  Knock the ball around in the midfield.  Your team can actually benefit from the practice of playing a little keepaway.  After you have a 3 or 4 goal lead, work the ball out on the wings, and only score on headers off of crosses.  Try to score only on one-timers.  Not only will this be beneficial to your team, it will also keep the scoreline more respectable.  Or an even better idea, in a game that you know you're going to win big, start the game out with kids in different positions and your subs in instead of waiting until you have a big lead. This will keep the score a little lower AND let you work on stuff for next year.

In Lumberton's defense I was told that WOS was just standing around and talking, not taking the game  serious at all. From what I heard they didn't care much that they were getting scored on.

If you were down 10+ goals, would you be a happy player?

When I played Rec back in 03 our coach made us work on possession when the score was getting out of hand. If a bunch of 12 year olds can play posession soccer I know that a HS Varsity team CAN and SHOULD play keep away before you get to 15 goals. If you get to 10 and continue to score, there is somthing wrong there... Oh well. Gratz to Lumberton on the win AND another D-Championship and Gratz to WOS for scoring!

i agree with you. The other team looked just fine at the end of the game also.

I wasn't there, but i doubt i'd be real pleasant towards any players from a team that was running up the score against me.  Did ya'll expect high fives from their defense?

I,ve watched football games at WOS lower levels where scoring on an another team should be slowed down, Dan standing in the end zone watching his 7th or 8th grade team winninig by 30 or more and have 7 or 8 kids never get in the game only to leave the starters in. So imo what goes around comes around. I dont have a problem with runnin it up in high school but the lower grades I dont think its the thing to do.jmo

Vidor scored 14 on WOS earlier in the season. LCM score 13 i think so why arent yall hammering them too? Lumbertons starters were coming out of the game 20 mins in. JV players were brought up and played alot. Defenders played forward. If Lumberton played the starters the whole game then I would have understood but the coaches even told them to quit scoring after awhile but sorry for those of yall this isnt rec ball anymore I know everyone here wants everyone to be happy and paddy cake with each other but I'm sorry its not gonna happen. Why would u put all your back ups and seniors in who never get to play and tell them not to play your style of soccer.

smp...the difference is that we are district champions and people just want a reason to dog our ball club.

This is not the reason and it was dumb to post this. But in yalls defense like i posted early its not like yall were trying to run up the score, this conversation comes up every year and every year people have the same arguments about it. And LCM scored 9 on WOS in the first half(starters weren't even playing) and only scored three headers in the second half, if they wanted to run up the score it would have been a lot worse.

Im just going to say this as a Player for WOS. Lumberton didnt run up the score.Early in the second half the coach had them start doing passes and shots with left foot only. After that no shots at all. They were friendly to us and the were not any problems on the field.

I retract my statement.  If the WOS player is not going to complain, then no worries.

I was planning on replying to this before i read serpentor's comment. But even still as a matter of fact, regardless of the score i was holding quite a friendly conversation with WOS strikers for a majority of the game. So pleasantries were present even though the score was being supposedly "run up".

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
