Just like our U18s this year?

You never had an under 18's, because you never had the numbers. You did have a Coach, Team Manager, and a Junior Football Coordinator [who busted his gut, to help these three jnr grade.] What you did not have was players, 11 in total. 3 left to play in another league, because they could see nothing happening. 1 walked off the field in a trial game at 1/4 time and left without informing any body, and never went back, but he did join the 3. 2 were German exchange student who went home in July. The rest didn't want to train with the squad, they wanted to train with the Seniors, also the rest of the team was going to be made up of the under 16's who would have had to play two games one after the other on the same day. Real fair on these lads. What you also had, was a Football Club Board who didn't care,[wouldnt even advertise in paper for players. etc] until it was to late, once 3 or 4 had put in for a clearance, they [A grade COACH, 1 A grade player, and 1 mate/boardmember], then made frantic phonecalls to kids on old lists, who might play but had work or didnt want to train and couldnt guarantee they could play each week, what a great help that would have been to the Coach/Team Manager and with a League Board that would rather fine you than help you get kids. Yeah!!! It would have been great to be involved with this circus. I could go on but I wont.
