Grant Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Does anyone have a good reason as to why so many friendlies have been called off this pre season. There seems to be a massive spate of them this year. Are clubs losing respect for other clubs? Players commitment is getting worse? I don't know but arranging these games takes plenty of effort from those behind the scenes and some clubs need to recognise this and sort it out. If you haven't got a full team travel light borrow a few from elsewhere, get some younsters involved, try the opposition first, do something. It is also a waste for the affected clubs as late withdrawls prevent them from arranging an alternative match. What is the game coming to? Sort it out!! :SM_carton: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodmanaldo Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Well said Grant. Grampound (Duchy 2) were due to play Roseland (Duchy Prem) on Wednesday eve, but Roseland pulled out late on Wednesday afternoon as they only had 5 players available! Annoying when arrangements are all made, pitch marked out, a referee booked, changing rooms booked, the pub going to lay on food after etc. Plus some players had obviously arranged to leave work early etc :SM_carton: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperCooper Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 You have to blame the weather a bit, no one wants to damage thier pitches before the season starts, especially if you have put alot of time in getting it ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
