Paulco 7,101 Posted October 1, 2017 For the promoters to actually think about what they're doing and consider all the possible scenarios of any alteration . Clubs not being able to sign anyone after 31st July being the perfect example of a reasonably good idea spoiled by no consideration given to clubs being decimated by injury after that date . 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GS550 449 Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Additional training given to referees to consistently apply the rules and establish best practice (Dishington to be re-trained at the first opportunity) Agree with most of your points, including the one quoted above. Only minor grumble I have is your wording of "Re" training would suggest that Mr Dishington has either previously received training or that on said initial training he attained a competent standard in the first place, either of which premise I greatly doubt.

jenga 2,998 Posted October 1, 2017 The home team should never be allowed a tactical. or even the away team and the team winning by more than 10 should have to drop a heat leader and put a reserve in to compensate for the lead they have achiened fair n square .

scunny1 436 Posted October 1, 2017 Change league names back to Elite and Premier- seeing as that's how most supporters and presenters still talk of them both. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StevePark 2,797 Posted October 2, 2017 That's just the infrastructure, I could spend a week or more on marketing Marketeing (in general) costs money. Not many teams have the resources to advertise/promote 'properly.' They do what they can, but, generally, that doesn't appear to be enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
