Game played in good spirits, no hassle, no problems until someone swore at a player and the ref gave a straight red.....
The player was exceptionally upset and continued the dialogue with the ref who then decided to abandon a docile game....
There will be commentators who will tell me the exact rules of the game were adhered to etc etc but if we have abandonment's for what I saw, we will struggle to finish the majority of games this season

I have the utmost respect for refs and will always back their decisions in terms of discipline but to abandon the game left all layers bewildered and frustrated.
I'm left befuddled..... The 21 players left on the pitch were robbed of an exciting end to a good game whilst the ref happily took his money and quoted rule after rule after rule in an awfully arrogant and supercilious manner better suited to netball umpiring quite frankly.
We will discipline the player red carded internally but am at a loss with where the game is going
