Peter Skapetis: Soccer dream realised13 Jun, 2011 12:00 AM
GLEN Waverley soccer player Peter Skapetis has signed a dream deal with English Championship club Birmingham City.
The 16 year old has taken up a two-year apprentice contract with the Blues, who were relegated from the English Premier League last month.

The apprenticeship will involve Skapetis training and playing with the Blues youth team while also going to school and working around the club in less glamorous roles such as sweeping the change rooms, washing the club uniforms and setting up uniforms for the senior team players.

But the Rowville Sports Academy student has no issue with some housework considering he will get the chance to work towards his dream of playing in the EPL.

"I have worked towards this for a long time and looked forward to the chance to move there," he said.

"All this happened through being at the school.

"My coach Stuart Munro set it all up. Without the school I would not have got there."

The teenage striker earned his deal after undergoing a four-week trial with the Blues in April.

He trained with the youth team, toured the club and got to see some EPL games.

He leaves for his new life in Birmingham - which he said reminded him of Melbourne - in early July.

"I will miss my family but it will be the same for other boys in the team who move to Birmingham.

"We will all be going through the same things."

"I hope to be pushing for the first team or the reserve side within 12 months."

While Blues fans were shattered to watch their side fall out of the lucrative EPL, Skapetis said relegation wouldn't effect who the youth team played against.

"The youth side still plays against the other big clubs," he said.

no unfortunately got rolled 3 0
had a few chances to make it 1-1 and copped 2 near the end while we were pushing, disappointing but the Japanese kids were apparently quality.. highlights should be on next wednesdays tv show

South Melbourne FC Player Registration Acknowledgement

Football federation Victoria (FFV) have announced that following acknowledgement from South Melbourne FC (SMFC) that they did not provide full details regarding the player registration details of Kliment Taseski, that SMFC have had their three point deduction cancelled.

According to FFV records on Monday 4 July Kliment Taseski’s (the player) loan from Melbourne Heart FC had expired.

FFV regulations provide that on expiry of the loan agreement the Player’s registration reverts back to the loan club.

FFV wrote to SMFC on Tuesday 5 July and advised that they were taking the Player off the Player Roster.

SMFC played Kliment Taseski on Saturday 9 July and subsequently FFV considered that SMFC had played an ineligible player.

As a result and in accordance with FFV regulations three points were deducted earlier this week.

SMFC advised FFV on Wednesday 13 July that the loan had been extended for one week on or before Monday 4 July.

This was verified today Friday 15 July by Melbourne Heart FC.

Based on this new information FFV has ruled that the player was in fact eligible and have restored the points and quashed the fine.

SMFC could have avoided this misunderstanding by providing FFV full details of the loan extension with the Player prior to the Saturday 9 July match.
