Not sign up for the season in the first place. If you're going to commit you should commit for the whole season.

Asteras are a club that has been around for quite some time so i am sure at the beginning of the season they had every intention of committing to the whole season, i dont know there circumanstances but i am sure there is an excuse for this, mate there b's have been copping hidings for about 3 seasons so i am sure thats not of them

Yeah I think it is a bit harsh to have a go at them, I remember playing Asteras when they came up to Div3 after winning 4 (4 or so years ago) and they were a quality unit and a great bunch of blokes. From what I can gather from talking to them earlier in the season it looks like a number of their players were letting them down, you can't really blame the whole club.
I can understand the move to attract Besa players (if that's what they did) as they were short and copping a lot of heat for all the forfeits. It's a shame to see them pulled from the league, you would have to assume it's unlikely that we will see them again.

thats hard to police, as these besa players may be innocent, plus being in a different community, not surrounded by albanians, may be a good thing

and maybe they just wanted asteras to see out the year
Plenty of Albanians out there when Lions played at Wingfield.
sounds pretty dodgy then, you must have been on your best behaviour then :wink:

As previously said, you can't apply for next year, we haven't even finished this year

We were told that they had been pulled from the league and our final round fixture is not going ahead. It may not be accurate but I heard it was because they were 'unfinancial'.
