Players Championship Quarter-Final

dark_chocco (8) vs (10) clifton188

This was a typical cat and mouse game! Started off with a lead, but then it went downhill, and then chasing this dude it like playing tig-tag with Usain Bolt.. you just ain't gonna win

Well played dude, and very well deserved! Hope you win it from here!

Well done all some more great results

FBL

horse10000 5 - 1 sinkemall @ US8

Scoreline is deceiving as there was a lot of close games and a lot of nice play, he had a few bad breaks on splits or it would have been a lot closer. But for a change i played well and cleared any chance i got.

Good games mate

Thx matey was a great match anyone could have won it to be fair. Vwp

FCL vs Uprising (Sub)
Was: apples_back vs corsair
Now: hunter vs corsair

* apples_back has permission to sub himself back in over the weekend should he be able to make it.

The first time he logged on okay a little later than 7pm corsair was still active. I recieved a message saying Jack wasn't going to log on and play it. So that opportunity wasn't taken.

Last evening IF it was arranged (at present it's just your players word) then maybe something cropped up which is quite possible as theirs no obligation to play. Ideally I and this team would appreciate all arranged times to be met and kept too but we also are aware that isn't possible sometimes.

Now again as per usual (judging by previous history) Jack isn't going to be available for the rest of the fixture so we are expected to jump and sub out a player who granted was late on the first occasion but yet still logged on and applied some effort and the second incident which I haven't verified due to your players needs.

Jack (Corsairs) game again i see this is third time Phoenix has messed Jack around. The First time a Phoenix player asked Zante to play only when Jack logged out.

Yes Arrangements should be met and if Sam didn't show up then it is Sams fault but Sam isn't the center of my discussion.

I don't think Uprising should sub out personally out of principle as usually when he draws Phoenix then he is forced to sub out and this would be the third FCL match where it would have happened (First two last season back to back).

Match is over anyway so in reality doesn't matter but my two cents

What has it got to do with you again James? Keep your nose out of other teams business please.

He is posting on our thread Ash and he is allowed to do so.

Nothing but i see a player being messed around multiple teams by the same team. Nothing wrong with my posts so you can't tell me where i can post or the content of them.

Once they break forum rules then the mods will advise me to stop

It's been dealt with I appreciate you're only trying to help but it can be interpreted as interfering/meddling too.

I've made a sub Jimmy has offered to be that player and can play from Friday due to having the weekend off. Sam is also allowed to sub back in so Jack's now got two possible opponents instead of one. All good.

While i'm here, Cliffy mate, thats a great win against Fiz and unlucky Fiz mate.

Some nice results coming through

I don't think you appreciate me trying to help as when i post my feelings on the game, i get the 'butt out' treatment but don't care about that.

Cool bare in mind i posted 5 mins before you posted the sub due to the length of my text so before then it wasn't sorted. As its sorted the problem has gone so i don't need to post.

If i'm causing a stir, say so Stu mate and i'll go, i don't post on Phoenix or Dynamos about grievances anymore so as it was Uprising vs Phoenix, Uprising was alternative place

That is incredible, a defence for the indefensible. Where do I begin?

What you mean mate?

What was it, half an hour/40 minutes late? And Jack was browsing by then not in game so not available as you have claimed for yourself many a time. Yet he is under an obligation to get back on and jump through hoops because your player finally showed up? No it is not a missed opportunity by us, it's a no show by your side.

Our player has been nothing but messed about by your side, yet you have the gall to imply that he might have lied about arranging a game when you have no ground to question that because he has never lied about an arrangement. You show disrespect to him and in the same breathe throw it in our face that your player (who no showed twice) deserves the respect of a message to confirm the truth. That is an absolute joke. There's the exact reason there's so many clashes between Phoenix and other clans, you demand double amounts of respect whilst dishing out no respect or even disrespect.

Now on to the history. Yes it does seem quite a coincidence that the last three seasons arguably our best player has been isolated in terms of an active opponent. You've swapped/reversed to make sure he has an inactive opponent in at least two of those matches (this time you made sure he was the opponent for shadows whom you had removed, then when you made a sub you acknowledged the swap wasn't reversed after saying you would not accept it). This time one of your clan even lied to say that Jack was inactive last time when he was active both previous times against inactive subs and you refused to give him a sub both times until you knew he couldn't play even when both times the subs you chose could've played earlier but weren't subbed in so that your inactive players "had a chance to play" (double respect for them, no respect for us).

We don't want you to jump through hoops, we want you to give just even a quarter of the respect you demand for your players to ours in giving him an active opponent who shows up when arranged because it's the third time in three seasons you have failed to do so conveniently on the same player who has either been highly active or showed up for every arrangement. We don't want you to (again) exploit the knowledge of limited availability and wait until you know he won't log in again to act. If the situation was reversed, you would be demanding a sub in a very disrespectful way. We have simply asked for it to be sorted out, be it a sub or not.

Three times this fixture your side has messed him about (and also lied about his previous activity). This is the third occasion he has had a fixture Vs Phoenix and has been messed around by inactive player and no shows. All while he has been active, showed up when arranged and never once been unreasonable while you try and get him subbed out every time because once more you've left it until the last minute.

Respect is earned. You don't get it for the hypocrisy of suggesting he might be a liar after one of your clan lied about his activity.
