countyman Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Everyone is aware of the fixture backlog of course. What I am wondering is, in the event that we unfortunately reach the end of the season with fixtures still unplayed, what will actually occur? is there a worst case scenario plan in place or will we have to wait on the Duchy AGM to hear what will happen? I'm not aware of any specific rule within the Duchy handbook and sincerely hope it is not something being left as a last minute decision....

WendronOfficial Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 What about cancelling all of the cups... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countyman Posted April 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 not what I was after.... it's what will occur come 31st May if circumstances mean that league fixtures are still unplayed... for instance if all the promotion spots are determined, despite remaining fixtures, in say Duchy 2, whilst there are still relegation-determining fixtures still outstanding in Duchy 1??

Cant cancel the cups, Duchy isn’t like the SWPL so can probably run into June?? Not that it’s an ideal situation, of course. Just organise no pre season fixtures next year?

They can most definitely cancel the cups... just ask the Duchy’s counterparts at The Trelawny League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
countyman Posted April 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 nope, sorry chaps, still not reading it right..... my point is .... if, after all other rearrangements have been made/attempted, and this would include cup cancellations, double headers, reversed ties, etc , that there were still league fixtures outstanding that had a direct influence on promotion or relegation come the end, what (With there being no rule currently in place to tackle it) would the league position be?

Taking competitions away from a competitive sport?? It is some clubs last chance of winning something. Trelawney have mucked up on that decision. At what stage was the cup cancelled? Quarters? Semis?

Surely in exceptional cases, leagues could go to the Cornwall FA, who presumably on behalf of their clubs, would then go to the FA and plead for a waiver this summer?

peggy78 Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Games in April and May count as ordered fixtures, so the games must go ahead unless the pitch isn't fit (and it HAS to stop raining at some point). If you want an indication of what can be done to get fixtures played in April/May check out this http://fulltime-league.thefa.com/DisplayTeam.do?selectednavpage1=All&navPageNumber1=2&teamID=8477166&divisionseason=975874520 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
