Thanks for the effort so far this season lads, we’ve had really good numbers most weeks and the commitment has made it much easier than the last 2 seasons.

But, it has also caused some headaches too, and that’s why I’m proposing this to you. With the amount of attacking players we have it’s been a real struggle to get everyone a game each week and there’s quite a few boys, like Blackie, Ieuan, Twm & Jordan to name a few who have not had their fair share of game time, sometimes only having 15 minutes at the end. It’s also been a pain having to take players off to give everyone time when we are chasing a game or maybe the player coming off is playing really well.

We all want to win games but I also want to be fair to everyone, I’ve missed a few games myself to lessen the headache so I know how it feels to not play too.

What I’m proposing is once I get confirmation that you’re available for the coming weekend, I will then pick a squad of 15 players and try to keep it more balanced so the subs make more sense. We’ll no doubt have a few who said yes still not turn up, so we may need some on standby just in case we are short. If you do confirm you’re available and you don’t turn up without a valid reason, then obviously you will move down in the pecking order as it’s not fair on the players showing commitment each week.

Then, if you are not in the squad for that week, you will definitely be in the following one (or the next one you’re available for) to keep it fair. Obviously if you work shifts etc then you will be in for the weeks you’re available.

This is all to give everyone more playing time per game, keep the team balanced and give us a better chance of winning. Let me know what you think and if you have any ideas of your own.

Also, I really need to collect the outstanding Reg Fees for the season for those who have not paid still. I have paid for the ref out of my own pocket the last 2 weeks. You can even pay with your card below if it’s easier, just change the Quantity to the amount you owe:
