Should I bother heading down on Wed night? and why is the home fixture Creggan with the game at Cargin?

And trust me any transgressions will be duly noted by players officials or randomers

website fixtures have been like that recently, first named team you'd assume are at home, but when you click venue its at the ground of the 2nd team mentioned !!

The program for giving out games and notifications for the ref's has been playing up also.

You get asked to do a game, its a Y or a N and before the game you'll get a reminder a few hours beforehand and after the game a message asking for the score, great system, when it works lol!

This is new with the different venues, sometimes the game was played at another pitch in the first set of games and this is returned back, but on the website it stays the same

Though we have had recent complaints on here about how SW has handled the Laverty Cup.

And while I agree that games should get played, it doesn't appear to be an out and out shafting for Cargin as you are painting it. The team at the top of the league also have an outstanding fixture. It would be only fair that they get to play that if the Cargin v Rasharkin result stands.

Edit: barnish oggie beat me to it.

Please read my original comment and forget any bias...

The CCC approved the fixture in question as per their fixtures board and appointed a Belfast based referee who duly arrived in Toome.....

Wonder will the afore mentioned official receive his due match fee....

He'll get no match fee, as no match was played, he will get fuel cover for driving up and the annoyance of not being notified that that game was called off by whoever

Match was not called off with Cargin winning .

Another question is if any transgression of rule had occurred by players or official would offenders have escaped penalty or penalties due.....
As I mentioned game announced via Fixtures board on notice board ....

No notice of cancellation received by either club and obviously Brendan Mc Polin.....

Go ahead......

That is different.

So the U15 game went ahead on Wednesday with Cargin winning?

I would have thought seeing as the fixture is on the website and if an official ref turned up and did the game, then surely his reporting of the score would have been sufficient and you would be given the points.

I do know that there was a date given out to all clubs to have their games played by, which was prior to 15th, but then the county shouldn't have the fixture up on the website at all.

And still, Aldergrove should be given the chance to play their final game as well.

The thing is, if Dunloy hadn't had the hurling, they would have won that league anyway.

The best team in it but they lost a few fixtures by resting players for the hurling.

I fully understand your original post.

The point is that Cargin & Aldergrove should be afforded the opportunity to play the same amount of fixtures.
I have no issues with the Cargin v Rasharkin result being recognised but that would mean that Cargin played one more game than Aldergrove.
To make it fair, the Aldergrove v Creggan game would have to go ahead.

For the record, I am not approaching this with any bias. I'm not convinced the same can be said of you however.

Last year Cargin didn't play the same number of games as Creggan and that cost them the league.

Once the date passed, no other fixtures were allowed to be played.

And this year your side were given a point in the game v Cargin....

And for your limited info Cargin's last league game in u15 was not played as the opposition refused to travel from West Belfast.....points awarded 're concession.....not at all..

So need to inform our players that any transgression during training will be noted and dealt with.....

Under 17 Cargin v Creggan will not go ahead I am assured.....

Who was "given" a point v Cargin?

Not sure i follow.

And i take it the west belfast thing was last year?

My point above was that the games should have been played last year and this, Cargin unfortunately lost the league last year as a result but seem to want to win the league this year by the same premise.

Neither is the right way to do it.

That games off Wednesday 

[country bumpkin]

That games off Wednesday 

Yep.....minor game.

[Hoof Hearted]

That games off Wednesday 

Didn't see the sense of bringing someone from the big smoke down to ref it, so they asked for a postponement

[country bumpkin]

So the "cut off date" for under-15 football only applied to Cargin..

[Cnoc Bán]

Sure Aldergrove were not allowed to play their final game either.

But for your info Mr S.......Creggan and Aldergrove could not agree on a date to play that game.....in direct contrast to
Cargin's refixed game.....

More than a few under 15 games have been played since that cut off date....

[Stillwater2]

All clubs were informed by CCC that all games need to be played / refixed before the split to be allowed to be added to their total overall points. Games not played before the split  and refixed after the split, wouldn't be allowed

Plenty of advance warning.
