Congrats to the Beograd Boys. Managed to knock 11 past us this season over 2 games.
Definately the most dangerous in attack this year.

Bit disappointing though that Plympton pulled out after they couldnt stay up.... Unlucky to B Eagles as well, promotion ended out of their hands

Good Luck in Div 2 next year.

[Wraith]

Well done to Beograd, a very strong team in my opinion way too good for Div 3.

[BeogradGeneralsC's]

Back to the Balkan rivalries (Bosna, Macedonia and Beograd)!!

Also the Western Derby with Vikings... This should be a massive contest. I am going to proposition to have the Cs play friday nights under lights... as the Vikings v Beograd Cs derby is likely to attract a crowd.. with family members and very close friends going up against eachother. lol

[Knight7]

Well done to Beograd - however very suprised with Plympton, if the same thing happened to us, I would be disgusted if our team didn't play a catch up game - especially if others were relying on the result

[pep]

I propose that the Cs derby is played as a curtain raiser for one of Adelaide United home games. Family members and close friends don't exist when the game starts. Everyone wearing that red shirt on the night better be prepared for anything.

Just as bad, if not worse, was last season when Western Strikers amassed enough points to win the league, they didnt bother playing their last couple games, handing easy forfeit wins to teams that most likely would have lost, thus effectively "manipulating" final table and the second promotion spot.
Clubs that deliberately dont play catch up games should be fined heavily (and/or maybe even deducted points for the following season).

[BeogradGeneralsC's]

IMO fining teams heavily i not really a solution. there are wose things that happen (when reading posts on this forum) that dont get fines nor do get any form of reprimand.

Its the choice of the team, so be it.

Well deduct points then. Why this doesnt happen more often amazes me. It sure would make some teams curb their attitudes to certain issues whether it be fighting, or treating the league with contempt (ie not showing up for games etc).

[I Am Number Two]

The Plympton forfeit might be irrelevant if Beograd beat Blue Eagles in the catch up game this Sunday.

[guti]

If Blue Eagles win this Sunday, the SAASL should make Plympton play the game. Even if they fielded atheir C team, they should still play the game.

Congrats to Beograd, look forward to playing you again next season

Bet you'd feel differently if a forfeited game resulted in Beograd not getting promoted...

I'm with Bomber.. teams need to be fined/docked points the following season.

[kramerica]

Well done Beograd! When you played Vipers in the Cup, you cetainly showed how good a team you are. Enjoy your promotion to Div 2.

Just as bad, if not worse, was last season when Western Strikers amassed enough points to win the league, they didnt bother playing their last couple games, handing easy forfeit wins to teams that most likely would have lost, thus effectively "manipulating" final table and the second promotion spot.

I agree with this point and what Western strikers did was unfair to some clubs, as they where too good for anyone in that division, so it was the clubs that had them late in the round advantage. Pherhaps not teams fault here, so fining, not sure you would get the result your after, all teams at end of season know what they must do in order to get a result, hence an unfair advantage.
I am still adamant, that if a game is postponed during the regular league season, it should be forced to be played before the next league game, witht the responsibility falling on the two clubs involved to organise, otherwise, neither get the points (except where the league deems circumstances beyond either teams control) and with the availability of grounds falling on the league only. This to me has always been a glitch in the reasonably well run SAASL competition. I also think that a change to the current laws for the amateur competition, should have "any team forfeiting a game, that could affect promotion and/or relegation should answer to the league, with the possibility of all points deducted from them"

Its out of my control if they decide to forfeit.

As Million Dinar Man mentions, if we play the beagles and either draw or win, then its a non issue.

[Aldo Serena]

As far as I can see from the League Competition Rules, there is nothing in terms of 'punishment' for a club/team forfeiting a game.

agree 100% it needs to be done before the next league match. if you put yourselves in a position where you are relying on other teams results to survive or be promoted it is always risky.
but all games need to be played to minimise this happening year in year out.

anyway - Conrats to Beograd who finished with about 14 games in a row undefeated, a great effort and good luck in div 2

i hope u can back up that talk pep!!!

[pep]

It's too early to sign players at this stage, because I don't know which player/s from Frank Mitchell Park will be coming to Vikings, but I will be knocking on your door for your services next year. I'm very keen on getting 'Luca Toni' wearing black and green for next season.

[BPBC]

Congrats lads, make sure the chevaps are cooking next year farken. still not happy we missed out on that!

[I am Costanza]

Yes well done lads. Definitely deserved to go up with us. A shame about the Plympton game but I think you'll do the business this week against Blue Eagles to have gone up anyway

[FoundIt]

well done to beograd, good luck next year. as plympton are already relegated i can see why they see no reason to play the catchup game. lets face it, they wouldnt have won anway, and moreso if ur hoping on other results at years end to get promoted u cant cry foul now when u had 18 games to prove ur worth.

its $250 to forfeit i believe so they do pay for it somehow.

u cant make them play. it isnt fucken nazi germany.

[To Mati]

Forget the fines, that doesn't hurt some clubs.

A 6 point deduction would be worth a lot more for a team that forfeits.

well great, take a further 6 points off plympton. they are already relegated.

power04, EVERY game effectes promotion and or relegation. so ur saying some games dont???? u cant just pick and choose 'the more important ones'.. with the possibility of all points being deducted?. come on, be serious. as it stands if u do forfeit, u still do answer to the league in the way of a fine. if u continue to forfeit successive games u r kicked out of the league. it happened to hazara this year

Or we could get u pep aka cambiasso to wear a red shirt again. There may be some movements should rumours about an over 35s team actually come to fruition next season

For St Didacus, I think he means deduct the points for the following season. No-one would like that!

agree its pisses me off no end, i've been involved in forfeits at our club during cup matches and even that annoys me, we are here to play football remember.....

anyway well done to Beograd and good luck next year, we just Croatia to get back to Div 2 to make things a bit more interesting in that league

Pherhaps I didn't say it right. I agree with you absolutely that every game counts for relegation/promotion, hence why it should forced to be played before the next league game. Yes the important ones, should be treated differently.
