The Jets would not be interested in Vista 'utilising' our pitch more. I would have thought that you would consult us Jets before using FN to outline your plans. We sympathise with Vista but we don't want our pitch overused either. Our pitch is in a very bad state as well.jackdogs wrote:the club is doing everything it can together with the council, we did have ladywood for a few junior games this year when the Jets 35s werent using it and hopefully we can utilise that a lot more next year.

Love the Rats rake comment.
Looks perfect when I drive past it every day...

I was thinking the same - looks 100 times better than Vista.DOC wrote:Looks perfect when I drive past it every day... I'm sure it will be done amicably and through the council and you will be sought after for input
Just drive past vista and see what we are actually dealing with
Maybe next season just have soccer on your pitches and let the "Dog obedience and Personal trainers" find another piece of grass to run around on ..!!DOC wrote:

Comments were made on the weekend by a number of people that the pitch is the worst it's been for a while. While it is council owned, we still have outlayed lots of club funds over recent years for its improvement and upkeep, which is probably why we get a bit protective over it. Maybe we should be on the end of some of your junior registration fees... Hundreds and hundreds of juniors.... Yeah well just take more money and use other clubs pitches.

Fingers crossed we can beat Raptors this week and Plympton stuff them so we can stay up ! Ghan having their results overturned has certainly shaken things up, can't believe they are still in the league given the incidents that have occurred this year ... !
4 yellows = 1 gameswannsong wrote:We had a player sent off for a second yellow card on Sunday (R7)...my uderstanding is an automatic one match suspension.
However, he has already served a 1 game suspension for accummulation of yellows previously this year.
Does anyone know (from experience) if the effect is compounding (ie 7 yellows for the season) and could make his suspension longer this time around ?
Do you have grass? Yes? Ok then it's 1000 times better than vistaErnie Cooksey wrote:Perfect ya reckon?DOC wrote: Looks perfect when I drive past it every day... I'm sure it will be done amicably and through the council and you will be sought after for input

So Fact Hunt and Blackburner are we to recruit our Refs from interstate/overseas?ontheblackburner wrote:What LRO said is pretty spot on.LRO wrote:I think the last thing Florina need to worry about is who the Referee is!!!

For the record I don't necessarily think he was biased, just terrible.
But Fact Hunt raises a good point. We had a ref earlier this year do the reserves against Inter. He killed the game and made some bizarre decisions. Then he ran the line in the As. After a bit of a handbags on one side of the pitch which the field ref felt a warning was suitable, he called over the ref and said he "saw" the incident from the other side (and opposite) of the park and our player got a yellow.
He's a former inter player.
Surely former players/coaches turned refs shouldn't be allowed to ref the teams they've represented.
So not Steve Vlassis thenFact Hunt wrote:Until refs can learn to take some constructive criticism maybe they should refrain from jumping to conclusions. Not saying he shouldn't ref just maybe look at who he does ref. I would rather he didn't ref teams I am connected with as I don't think he's any good but that is my opinion based on what I have seen. The best refs I have seen are ones that don't think it is all about them.
