How so? It's highly unlikely they had any tangible evidence to go on. I understand the league were aware of previous complaints regarding the ref though. Final day of the seaosn when a league title is at stake, why wouldn't you appoint an official referee... There are no refs. Premier B's and C's d...

I am more disappointed that the club condoned this behaviour and thought no one would question it. I watched part of the game as an impartial spe...

If clubs allow underperforming or incompetent coaches to continue, they suffer relegation consequences. If the club management is not strong-willed enough to remove that underperforming coach, they should remove themselves and let others step in to run clubs professionally. If players (e.g. JJ) are...

Congrats to RBE C's. Hope they celebrate what this "title" has done for their club. Pretty hollow victory I would have thought. Says a lot when now they don't even have a Cs this season... :roll: :lol: :clown: Says a lot about the club when you have a 6 hr. appeal hearing with lawyers inv...

He,s gone. Surprised to see Calderbank watching the games on Saturday too.

Why , he lives nearby

Will be handy for training and match days then.

Can anyone confirm?

I suspect SAASL has bottled it again. Probably don't want the expected backlash. SAASL 101. Just need to be upfront and explain how they reached their decision, whatever it is.

The season finished 6 weeks ago, how does it take this long? People in the ARBE camp told me weeks ago the investigation is done with no outcome, 'deemed to not have breached anything' I suspect the League is hesitant to set a precedent, if they start investigating every report of questionable refe...

I can see SAASL being in a difficult position. It is not easy to prove bias and cheating, even though they were aware of past indiscretions by this club ref. With ARBE's reputation now seriously damaged maybe the club could step up and not claim the title. It doesn't excuse the obvious poor behaviou...

The DC met 2 weeks ago so a decision must have been made. I presume the league winners plaque was handed out on Fri. night. Does anybody who attended know who won it?

The Sat. Premier C grade is the title in dispute. The leading scorer from that division was awarded to a Lion player even though the RBE player scored more on Dribl. Time for an announcement from SAASL to clarify matters.

Apparently Memo from SAASL to all clubs stating that an investigation is now under way. Credit where credits due. Well done SAASL. Lets wait and see.

In a relegation year too

Good luck to Div. 2 Cs next year. At least they know what to expect.

The score on Dribl says 15-0 and would have had to be confirmed by Titans to be official and correct. Maybe SAASL need to take a closer look to ensure the integrity of the league is maintained. (sarcasm intended)

Not the first time ARBE's had some very interesting officiating in their C grade home games over the years. Previously have witnessed - Linesman being sent off for telling the ref the home crowd was abusing him, keeper sent off for calmly questioning a penalty awarded, player sent off for 2 light c...

Interesting to see ARBE C grade winning the league yesterday. Played a catch-up game Thurs. against Titans and win 3-2. Played them again at home on Sat. needing to win by 15 goals to snatch top spot and win 15-0. Club ref only gave them 6 penalties so it wouldn't look too suspicious. Bosa Cs must b...

Went to watch a SAASl Saturday Premier league game today. I was impressed with standard of play to be honest and the players seemed well prepared and most showed a high level of fitness. It pains me to say that could not be said of the ref. He was grossly overweight and hardly moved out of the centr...

Seems to me that the proposed constitution actually makes it harder for the league to be dissolved. Am I missing something? No. You are right, the proposed constitution makes it harder to dissolve the SAASL. There is no secret mandate from FSA to dissolve the league, which currently would need 3/5 ...

Rumour has it that SAASL is about to make a change to its constitution to allow it to be absorbed into the Collegiate league. At the moment if SAASL dissolve itself, all assets have to be distributed to member clubs which they are reluctant to do. Has anyone heard any rumblings. Have you read the p...

Didn't that large pile of cash primarily exist to help lower the expenses to clubs and the regos to players? Why can't the same continue to occur, whereby the money is placed into a perpetual fund and a dividend each year is used to subsidise the SAASL clubs moving into new competitions perpetually...

Why would they say NO? Unless of course they are fighting the dissolution, which I would hope they are. Just leave the FSA and be done with it. If the new constitutional change is passed it makes it more financially attractive for the FSA and the collegiate league to take over the SAASL clubs. Sure...

Good on your club for doing that. Maybe also ask why the need to change the constitution and what the change will allow SAASL to be able to do.

They have sent out a reviewed constitution to clubs to review My understanding is that the league have sent out a reviewed constitution but failed to supply a copy of the current one for comparison. Are they hoping clubs won't bother to check the implications of the new one? SAASL need to come clea...

Without knowing figures, as someone who has been involved with SAASL for years, I’d be happy to take the financial hit and get away from the absolute shambles that is the organisation. I understand and probably agree with your sarcasm, however poor administration isn't an excuse for screwing the cl...
