3.1 million for Pluim Park v Headlock... I think old Sproddy wins

The 3.1 million was a great result for football on the central coast, but it wasnt a one man effort.

Guys

Happy to answer this for you all and the bloke above is right the $3.1 wasnt a 1 man effort there several people involved. Three of us wrote the submission and lobbied O'Farrell and Annersley as well as local MP's.

I am happy to say that after 3.5 years I needed a break. I didnt do everything right and made several mistakes but I am proud of the renovations at Pluim and the fact that I lobbied the FFA and FNSW and worked with the Mariners to get our rep teams into Premier league.

It takes a lot of hours in a voluntary capacity to do that role. Doing draws, answering complaints etc. Not complaining and I enjoyed the whole experience and may throw my hat in the ring again some day but just wanted to take a breather.

There are some good people at CCF who put in a lot of work to make it tick. That also goes for those that came before us. I didnt always agree with them but they gave there time for the game and for that they will always have my respect.

As for the headlock the week before, that was a seperate thing and a complete brain explosion for which I am not proud. I got elbowed and retailiated and as a referee of 26 years I should know better and I will cop my punishment at the Judiciary like anyone else who plays.

Cheers

what he should receive is the same as everybody else, on this occasion he is Darren Sprod player, and I am sure he is embarrassed by his actions.
And no doubt Darren alot goes into being Chairman of CCF, and as you say alot of people worked for that grant to come to bein, your re-election was only 6 months ago (i think) so it seems surprising after only just being elected again that your resignation comes through.

i saw the massive elbow he copped and the following altercation
thought it was a double headlock
the other player had him in a bearhug like headlock and his face was going red
dont even think the right player got red carded for the elbow (unsure)
ref was a newby who looked unsure of the rules
kudos to the young kid assistant who looked to tell the ref what to do

Thanks for your honesty and well done to the Association for Plum Park... only recently moving to the Coast and spent all my playing time in Gladesville Hornsby Association and as a committee member from a local club can appreciate your comments pertaining to the amount of work you do in those roles... and can offer no local knowledge of the CCA but again thanks for your open and honest reply...

Wow really!! Thats great!!

Well good luck to him. The story about wanting to take a breather cant have been the whole story, its only been a couple of weeks

The headlock

Mate...if you can't put someone in a headlock, chop em down in retaliation or land a few sweet punches when needed...then what's the game coming too?....especially when you are playing against Gosford or Woy Woy, who clearly deserve it.

Wasnt meant. He slipped inside me and I stuck my arm out

He then ducked and what was meant to be chest high ended up around his neck.

Ref believed me...... Hehehe

We are talking soccer here aren't we? Cause if that's touch or league then that's just f**king unacceptable.

 

[FFC Mariner]

LOL

Stopped him scoring, got away with it.

Welcome to contact sport

He slipped inside me

Definitely a Gosford player!
