Re: Div 1 Title Race

The 1A title has been decided by 1 point several times, but I'm not sure it's ever been decided on goal difference. Certainly not since 2003, as the records on the CSL website go back that far.

Anything could yet happen, and then the two teams will face one another in the cup final too.

Re: Pembroke v Rostrevor game abandoned

No one went to the media. One comment was made in a Facebook post and a journalist has then turned that into a story. The journalist sadly thinks that there's nothing to prevent him doing that if he doesn't name individuals in his story. The person who made the Facebook post asked the journalist not...

Re: Pembroke v Rostrevor game abandoned

Rostrevor are unlucky this story has been publicised. In the last few years alone there have been several serious incidents where other clubs were in the wrong and no media attention resulted from it. As Brendan said, the media seem particularly eager to run negative stories about soccer at the mome...

Re: 2a Blackwood V Norwood

FFSA heard the appeal last night for this matter.

The result will stand as a 3-1 win to Blackwood.

Re: Pembroke v Rostrevor game abandoned

There was a serious incident and the referee abandoned the game. Pembroke were leading 3-1 at the time and I believe the result will stand.

Re: Refs

Via the documents page of this website you can access a Match Officials Feedback form. Fill that out and send it to your club delegate so they can consider it and send it to the CSL if they deem it appropriate to do so. Some of the questions on that form are out-of-date and no longer applicable. But...

Re: Refs

My experience with FFSA is that if you request to not have a particular referee then you are actually more likely to have that referee again soon, unless the referee has also requested not to referee your games. Sometimes I think that is a mere coincidence but on other occasions probably not. One is...

Re: 2a Blackwood V Norwood

I think Norwood had to pay a fee of $500 to FFSA to lodge their appeal. On appeal, the penalties could be unchanged, increased or reduced. By the sound of things Norwood may have an arguable case that the referee over-reacted and should not have abandoned the game as the player was leaving the field...

Re: 2a Blackwood V Norwood

There was a disciplinary hearing conducted recently by FFSA in relation to this game. A 3 month suspension was given to the Norwood player and Blackwood were awarded a 3-1 win (Norwood were 1-0 up at the time the referee abandoned the match). Norwood subsequently appealed the decision to award Black...

Re: The Streaker

3 old ladies were sat on a park bench near the pitch when the streaker ran past.
2 of them had a stroke but the other one couldn't reach.
