I was reading some junk posts on Nola.com about Woodlawn. I don't take too much of what I read over there very seriously and I never post there because good posts about soccer seem to be the exception over there and not the rule. It seems there are some accusations going around that Woodlawn plays dirty. That if they can't beat you they would rather hurt you. Since there are some district 4 people in this board who know soccer, I thought I would get your opinions.

mcsruff, i read but seldom post on nola as well. i was also concerned when i saw the same post you are talking about. i sure hope it is not true for two reasons. one you never want to see a kid get hurt on purpose. and 2 lafayette has some pretty stout kids of their own who would be more than willing to dish it out as well. i hope what was posted is not true but if it is the lafayette kids keep there head and just play soccer.

We've seen Woodlawn 3 times this year. There were no complaints about dirty play.

Was it Woodlawn that got into a fight with Covington in last year's playoffs?

Well, I hope everyone just comes out and plays a good clean game tomorrow. I agree with goat about some of the Lafayette kids. They don't really have bad tempers, but they are too stubborn about backing away from confrontations.

I am A player for Woodlawn, although it is true we got in a fight with covington in last years playoffs it was Covington who spit on my teamate. We dont tolerate that kind of sportsmanship. We are a close team and you mess with one of us you will deal with all of us as you saw last year. I promise you there are no intentions of and foul play. I look forward to a intense fun game Saturday.

ive played woodlawn twice this year and twice last year and it was obvious last year that all trash talk and dirty play came from 2 or 3 seniors that arent there anymore and one junior that did not play against us this year...so dont worry
