Maiwand were very well behaved and are a skillful and friendly team, so there were no issues during the game.
PAC played the 'reserves' and their supporters were being quite inappropriate, even staying at our home ground after their win to heckle our A's players who played Maiwand while they were drinking; not a great representative example for PAC.
My name is Thomas Haering and i am the Head Coach of PAFC. Any comments made on a public form towards my club and more specific towards my players is not a great representative example for Unley United[/u]. Arriving at your home ground, which does not offer change rooms to the opposition team, is not a great representative example for Unley United. Whilst your team was sitting under a gazebo in the shade, we not even had chairs (for coach and subs) to sit on, offered by your club. Again not a great representative example for Unley United. Your uneven marking of the pitch and not providing a technical area ( a requirement for any amateur club) not a great representative example for Unley United.
Your club accusing PAFC of staking the team, is a personal attack towards me as the Head Coach. Maybe if your reserves coach would have spent less time on his mobile phone, and actually coaching his team, maybe the outcome would have been a bit different. Maybe if your team puts in as much hard work as my boys at training, they would have not run out of legs after 10 minutes and maybe the outcome would have been a bit different. Before you accusing us of cheating, which by the way is not a great representative example for Unley United, i am more than happy to provide you with a copy of our senior squad (played on Saturday) and you will see we had an extra player on the bench. No offence, but there is and never will be the need for PAFC to "stack" any of our teams, playing and Unley United team.
