Of course the rumours of the C grade getting pulled are false. At least nobody involved with the club seems to know anything about it, so perhaps Dee Man knows more about us than we do. No doubt like every club there are things to improve on and we're busting our backsides to do so. In the meantime all we want is to be treated on the basis of action and not reputation. A reputation earned in many ways, both fair and unfair, but largely by people no longer seen at the club.

Where there's smoke...



According to Sporting Pulse Pulteney have already notched up a win against them on Saturday :? :shock:


for that matter so does every other opponent for the remainder of the season :?

Do you mean "their" as in the Salisbury West C Grade team or "their" as in Salisbury West Football Club?

I don't know the full story so hopefully someone from SW comes on to explain it.
All I know is that their C grade had to pull out of the comp and it certainly wasn't to do with lack of players.

So with no SW there is 3 sides battling it out for that 5th spot, all on a measly 8pts each! 4th has 18!

The unsubstantiated accusation on here a few weeks ago was that they were going to pull their C Grade because of the number of reports the club had generated through their three grades. I don't know how the system works but someone suggested that the position of their A's could be affected if a C Grader got reported. So they were going to pull their C's to reduce the chance of this happening.

A Salisbury West poster vehemently denied this was the case.

I realise this has probably never occurred to anyone from Salisbury West, but they could always consider not hitting people?

Sorry Masha no truth in the rumour, perhaps initiating mind games before the game tomorrow might give you an edge? Are you playing tomorrow as I will make sure you will get at least one kick!

;) Ok you got me, just stirring.

An edge? At the moment, we have 19 players, and going by our B grade past record, we will lose 2-3 by tomorrow so could be struggling. We know where we sit, we just want to be competitive no matter the result.

Yeah I am playing, but will be a little late as I also have to suit up for the B grade.

On that note, our umpire will be a tad late too, as he is doing the B grade so you may have to fly solo for 5 or so minutes. That or just wait for him, he is worth waiting for :D

I have heard the official version, but as it is not my place to say, I wont tell all. But for the sake of rumours etc, the CLUB pulled their C grade as this was their only choice to ensure club survival/A and B grade points remained in tact (incase of further incidents).

After last weekend, I was convinced that Salisbury West had changed for the better. They were clean, hard at the ball, and no niggle/cheap shots all day. They were definitely going to be a tough team to beat come finals, particularly with a few more to come back in the side. It is a shame. I feel for some of their players, some fairly decent blokes out there.

No worries but no guarantee I can keep up with the play, hang on I have never been able to do that even when I was playing
Have I the joy of EM co umpiring with me?

Late mail EM, we may have to wait for you to start the game! Info from the C's tells me 4 up to the B's, 2 injuries from last week, Corey away with work so I may have to pull on the EPFC jumper for the 462nd time!
