Was it not the locals who picked them?

Aye some locals picked it alright but it wasn't a reflection of what everyone wanted apparently.

Was the selection not by a sub-committee & ratified by the club committee who are voted for by club membership at AGM?
It's about as democratic as can be.

Some great posts above about the need for investment in juvenile football (time & effort more so than simply financial although that always helps!).

The community aspect is also critical.
Kids have to want to emulate their heroes they see every week in a club jersey.

There have been a good few discussions about the need for rural clubs to amalgamate in order to thrive but here we are talking about an urban area that probably can't sustain the number of clubs it has.
Hard to know the solution in either scenario.

Anyone else hear anything?

Truth Hurts you're usually in the know. What's happening?

Sure why don't you tell us the rumours?

Wouldn't be right to put something up until it's confirmed. Could be embarrassing to any individual or club if it's not true.

So you would be happy for others to give out names?

If they know for a fact then yea.
