That's the conclusion you reach when you know full well that there will be 30 rather than 38 league fixtures next season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know imagine wanting our level of football to progress and not be a laughing stock. Its nice you found the pictures on here, you must be delighted, did you get a high 6 off your cousin for that? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tell_me_more Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 The integrity of the game at this level is at stake here. The decision reached could have a knock on effect for many years as this is probably setting a precedent. A correct code of conduct has to be established that prevents teams manipulating the 7 player rule. Under no circumstances should any team have the power to get a game abandoned and thus obtaining a replay by using the 7 player rule. The team with less that 7 players must be seen to have lost the game and a 3-0 awarded to the opposition. Glenafton in this instance. Any other decision sets a ridiculous precedent. Personally I think a points deduction is appropriate for Blantyre for next season. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugbyroader Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) There are rules in place to deal with things like this. If the rules state that the game is replayed it is replayed. If those rules state that there is a victory awarded then a victory is awarded. You can’t change the rules this far into the season. If the league and member clubs think the rules should be changed then they should be changed going forward.

WOSL is a new organisation are you sure there are rules covering this scenario, if so why the delay in decision making? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens with bets made on this fixture btw? Do they pay out at 3:0 or is the match void? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot supporter Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Surely it would be common sense to award Glenafton the win ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's in the laws of the game - ie football as a whole - that a game must be stopped if the number of players on one side falls below a limit.* Presumably then a game can begin if that limit hasn't been breached. I remember a gaem where reading of a game where Neil Warnock was manger of one side which had gone down to nine men and he was actively encouraging his players to be sent off so the game would be abandoned. *I had thought the limit was 8 but it must be 7. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wow-wee Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 The rule is you must have 7 players to start a game but there is no minimum amount to say it has to be abandoned it's the referees discretion to decide if it becomes a no contest. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
