spud4 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Am I right in saying a club can request a relief of fixture on one occasion through the season? I don't know if there needs to be a set amount time to request this but I believe this to be the case. For this one there doesn't seem to be a lot of notice given which is unfair on you's to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenconner Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The knock on effect seems to have produced chaos off and on the park at a time of year when the weather is in Junior football's favour. Now with the second Saturday off it must mean a fourth team has been affected. Perthshire, St Roch's and then Neilston were dragged in followed by whoever we were supposed to play the second week. The fourth team must be thinking, what the eff is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenconner Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Because of this the Candy could find themselves 6 points behind the leading teams without kicking a ball with two outstanding games to be played next May. That's before any other games cancelled by the winter weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all fine and well from a club point of view but again that does nothing for the fans who would have booked time from work organised transport to the match only to find out that once again they are the last folk to be informed yet again Two wrongs don't make a right ...

21stcenturyboy Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Two wrongs ? Last to be informed yet again?? Are you serious??? As soon as we found out we informed the fans - immediately if our fans are out of pocket I urge you to contact SJFA if you implicating that our club can or could have done Anything about this you are very wrong!!

Graffiti on the wall Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Strange cos I was informed at 5 pm game was off by john sweeney nothing said by club till after 11 pm so yes I am SERIOUS I NEVER said our club done anything wrong but yes I am concerned at the lack of information from all parties regarding this fixture and YES if we are out of pocket I will suggest WE contact the SJFA but yesterday has no relevance to my post concerning future late fixture call offs but thanks for your CONCERN anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21stcenturyboy Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Are you for real?? Our manageent team and committee are all volemteers who work for the club with no compensation - the fact that the "club" did not announce game was off till 11pmlast night and our Johnknew at 5pm says two things firstly we thought the fixture was changed to Neilston - secondly - someone from "theclub" - - probably one of said volunteers actually posted to tell the fans at 11pm onSaturday night speaks wonders give me a call when you have a genuine concern - thanks - also no need for sarcasm - my CONCERN is on Monday and Wednesdays game - you have an issue with how we are doing things speak to us - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Roch's sub : Treacy, Carter, Febers, Daw, Craig, S.Logan, McDonald #STRVPET S. Logan, McLuskey ( who wasn't listed) and McDonald came on, who were the other 2 who were actually on the bench?
