Professional leagues have had the similar issues, and things like suspended/ineligible players still happen. People are fallible, so is technology. https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/champions-league-draw-what-happened-why-uefa-redo/bltdeae17cc8a4b1c83 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budandavodka Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Another point regarding the draw is some teams may have got a decent team in the draw, good home crowd, increased revenue. Now in redraw they'll potentially lose that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the hospitality, travel arrangements etc hadn't been done then that's no biggy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper Wilson Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I think that some of you need need to get a grip, especially on reality. A mistake was made, that's all. Nobody died, nobody's house burned down. Yet here you are demanding someone get's sacked over it. Which one of you sad keyboard warriors are going to take on the role if it was to happen? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s got nothing to do with ‘who would take over the role’. That’s just a nonsense statement. its an unforgivable and unfathomable mistake and one that may well have gone unnoticed had the club not highlighted it. there needs to be an expected level of good governance otherwise what is the point? Clubs make basic and sometimes understandable admin errors and they are absolutely hammered for it. if those who set the standards fall badly short themselves then something needs to happen other than sweeping it under the table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"unforgivable and unfathomable mistake" Really? Was it swept below the table? I think they held their hands up and admitted that it was their mistake. They also thanked Petershill for their honesty. I think they will have learned something from this and other than the embarrassment they will be feeling, I'm not sure what you actually want them to do. All of them to walk away immediately? Walk around with a crown of thorns on their heads? Get an 'I made a blunder' tattoo on their foreheads? As I said - "Get a grip." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 So someone, whoever, makes a minor mistake with a cup draw and all of a sudden its the biggest crisis to ever hit the west of scotland. Honestly simmer down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly simmer down. Yep, supposedly well run organisations don't hound their people out the door for an honest and completely correctable mistake (well, not at the first offence stage anyway). Good governance is about improving things when your existing processes are shown to be pish, which I'm certain they will. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good governance is about improving things when your existing processes are shown to be pish, which I'm certain they will. Its a bit like referees, if you hound people for mistakes no one will want to do it and its not like its a compulsory job. Hold the hands up, learn from it, become better and move on. No harm done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bestsinceslicebread Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Just found this out this morning about the draw cancelled, a bit embarrassing to say the least but bet its happened to others leagues in the past. Anyways, when is the re-draw, has it been announced yet? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was the SJFA you would be pointing and laughing (rightly so btw) and calling for Alex McDowall to resign (again rightly) but when some of us do the same we are wrong, why’s that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
