Re: banned

'Amateur Soccer League secretary Alex Cichanowski said there was no room for threatening behaviour in soccer. “They found it difficult to accept the decision made by the referee and then began chasing the referee,” Mr Cichanowski said. “ They have been suspended until they can demonstrate that they ...

We don’t have or ever had anyone called sam at my club. Also the juniors have had no cards all season so not sure what your on about. Stacey Anthony J :) was suspended last week!

Re: GHAN UNITED

The matter of the fact is that those people are actually jealous of Ghan's achievements and therefore all the jealouse team will...

Re: GHAN UNITED

Old Ghan players got kicked out of the club and some got banned for life due to the same issues (fingering, fighting, being rough and abusive towards other teams including their own coach!) SAASL took the deciuson and banned them for life. New Ghan formed 4 years ago with new playerers. It is Ghan ...

Re: GHAN UNITED

So it's all made up? Have Ghan players tried to stick fingers up player's arses? This team was formed recently 4 years ago with Rahim Shah Zaidi as the coach and new boys. This finger issue was done by other boys by the same name of the club "Ghan"! As i said before, before blaming the ne...

Re: on the grape vine

My point is you don't have to be registered with a specific body to be eligible for a call up. Yes you do. SAASL is not recognised by FIFA and as such you cannot play in FIFA sanctioned competition. I'm sure there are throngs of players in SAASL missing out on the chance to represent their nations ...

Re: on the grape vine

Have heard an agreement is close. Also hearing though that clubs would have to agree to it. Would have to be a pretty good deal for clubs to agree to it surely. Aside from playing in the federation cup, what's in it for clubs to join that joke organisation? To be fair SAASL is a joke of an organisa...

Re: Cup Results May 6th/7th 2017

Have you seen or had him before? I really feel he's the type of ref that would allow a game to get out of hand (that tackle by your #2 was disgusting), the quickest he moved all day was asking for his match payment!
