I think there should be deadlines for KOC matches like your local golf tournaments (1st round by mid May, QF by end July, SF by middle Sept and final by mid October.

Not to hard to do considering Ipswich last season had to wait about for 2 or 3 months waiting for others to catch up.

 

It's been quoted for ages that method because it should be so simple to implement, maybe why they don't do it? :D

Trouble is though, that League fixture  v Newcastle for August 10th has now been removed from the fixture list, as it is one of our Fridays that limit Scunthorpe and the likes of getting guests!

Probably the Management Committee have a deadline in place for the KOC to even further limit the chances of the Comets getting their fixtures in by the cut-off date, so KOC it is!

That's why I quoted weekends, even moving everything back to Saturday we don't have enough to get in what needs doing? 

Could easily ruin a potentially successful season for the Comets this? :angry:

Think that was the intention made by those in power who made the Friday night decision. 

Trouble is whilst we keep winning our away matches, the clubs who thought they would benefit by our demise didn't win between them at the weekend!

As frustrating as these fixture changes are, you can't get away from the fact that the root cause of all this was the lack of fixtures earlier in the season. 5 competitive home meetings April - June? Far too disjointed, and not for the first time.

That's what happens when the sport is run be insiders 

It's biased towards the ones organising things

And now we have Shield meetings to organise.:rolleyes:

Has this been agreed IS, looked on Comets website and there is (as per) nothing to suggest any meeting has been arranged for any time, certainly the first I've heard of it? :unsure:

Yeah I've got to agree with that.it does make the sport look a bit daft peterboro and lakeside drawn against each other and one I never expected if I'm honest.

i was also expecting a cup semi  meeting with leakside .  scunny not too far away tho for travelling support  from both teams . just got to fit it in on a spare Friday !

Friday.saturday.sunday.any day of the week id take right now to see the comets in action but saying that with the late notice we might be given known my luck will miss out due to work commitments .just hope we are racing Newcastle in the cup next weekend and the weather plays ball when we do start to arrange our league meetings and we get enough pts in the bag to earn a play off place.
