Last Saturday was a grim day. As a club we regressed back to the dark days. One topic only this week - discipline. To open my emails on a Sunday and read an email from a loyal and hard working club member expressing annoyance having been verbally abused by another club member who he was helping out by umpiring his match goes beyone the pale. Quite rightly a new member of the club also wrote in wondering what type of club he had joined.

From here on a very firm line will be taken by me and the committee and suspensions will ensue for bad discipline. Let the opposition moan by all means but players who argue - mainly due to their own on pitch failings - will not be tolerated no matter what standard. Fair to say that in the main such players are not as good as they think they are.

I sincerely hope that this is the end of this subject matter for the remainder of the season.
