Embarrassing

Disaster of a season. Wasps just fck off

 

[wingy]

Litigation .
Point's??
New pitch!

 

[Dec-ccfc]

This has destroyed all the enthusiasm for this season for me. We look like we turn a corner and something comes along and puts us on the back foot.

 

[Sbarcher]

Awful for the club but means I’ll now see both games once they have been rearranged. Every cloud…….

 

[Sick Boy]

Fucking disgraceful - the franchise really does need to fuck off.

 

[wingy]

Wish they'd have waited until after today's game.

 

[cornoccfc]

Farce. Pitch must be in a right state.

Couldn't possibly have been good before CWG.

This is a disgrace, Wasps are a disgrace and we need to be getting some form of compensation from them, they are not spouting stuff in the media saying they had told the club they would relay the pitch, absolute joke

 

[ccfctommy]

Points deduction incoming.

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Points deduction incoming.

Its out of the clubs control and the efl wanted us back there so I’d hope not.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Points deduction incoming.

Yes, I fear patience is waring thin. A points deduction would be catastrophic

 

[Evo1883]

Looks like the EFL appointed Independant inspectors so that should squash point deduction rumours..

Bolton got 5 suspended points deducted for their players refusing to play 2 matches , we won't be punished with points

 

[Nick]

Points deduction incoming.

Doubt it if they have had an independent specialist out with the EFL.

 

[chiefdave]

Guess the independent agronomist didn't think it was up to standard either. So much for Wasps passive aggressive statement implying games were being called off for no reason despite the initial assessment being made by an independent official.

 

[theferret]

I suspect Huddersfield will be reversed and we'll play them twice at their place. Another postponement is unthinkable.

Yeah they confirmed it wouldn't be safe for the game.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Absolutely fuming. Record season ticket sales, a squad of potentially exciting talent, and we can't play at home because our pitch is absolutely buggered. What a total joke of a situation.

 

[chiefdave]

Points deduction incoming.

It would be incredibly harsh to get a points deduction, obviously its completely unacceptable but the club don't control the ground and if the landlords can't supply the most basic of requirements not sure its really on to punish the club with a points deduction. Now a nice big fine that's passed on to Wasps on the other hand.

 

[The CableGuy]

Just saw this on SSN and laughed in disbelief. Were comng the laughing stock of this league, through no fault of our own.

Wasps would not pay the fine

 

[covcity4life]

What a joke . Let's just hope we can do well away and use the rest periods well this is all sorted.

Feels like ccfc may be gearing up for compensation claim against wasps?

 

[wingy]

Another move?

 

[Cranfield Sky Blue]

Gearing up?? I think they’re counting the zeroes as we speak!, (or type)

 

[covcity4life]

Wasps would fight it though

 

[lord_garrincha]

Wasps would not pay the fine

Or more can not.

 

[Cranfield Sky Blue]

Wass would fight it though

I would have thought that there is already breach of contract issues. Difficult to argue if it’s in black and white…

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Why don't they just reverse the fixture?

 

[Sky Blue Oggi]

I’m sure the pitch will be fine for the rugby league World Cup game that’s being played there in The Autumn

 

[covcity4life]

Why don't they just reverse the fixture?

Tried but couldn't. DW in use

 

[The CableGuy]

Why don't they just reverse the fixture?

Not that simple I suspect, Wigan police would have to agree, Wigan FC would have to print match tickets and programmes for a fixture they didn't intend to host (plus setting up catering etc) and we would have to book hotel space for a fixture we thought would be played at home.

Surely this isn’t true

Play it on the Wednesday then? Just seems silly to postpone. With the world Cup break were gonna end up with a busy schedule to fit these games in
