He we go again - I have been trying to stay out of it but couldn't help but put my 2c worth in - again.
Can someone please explain to me (and everyone else) in the example of injured players (and specifically in Heberle's case) where the negligence and refusal is? Inability to train or play due to injury is neither neglect or refusal on the players behalf. I am sorry but Andy cannot sit out and take no responsibility for this, he has been association coach now for 3 campaigns (maybe 4) and should know how the dill's running the show will interpret this rule. He should have told all players to hit the track because he knows what the ridiculous rulings will be, as we have seen the past few years.
It is time the ruling was challenged, I don't have an issue with the wording, I have an issue with the interpretation.
Any potential player who has been told not to train by the coach is neither negligent or refusing anything and the 1 week suspension of such a player using the rule above is un-constitutional.
One more thing - I hope you transcribed it wrong On Song, surely there is not a spelling mistake in the constitution!!
Well, I would call it a grammatical error and not a spelling error but yeah, I copied it from Wangas post I reckon.
Think I may have edited it somewhere along the line.
How's this for a twist, Feast not suspended. I'm giving up trying to understand it but I reckon this will be the end of the rule.
Right in front of me. RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!
