I think the award was due to the club's representatives not showing up in court. They claim they weren't informed of the date. I don't know if that will change anything, but either way the kid's dad is a twat!

No worse feeling than turning up every week, told you were a sub, and then not getting on because the manager thought the result was more important than everyone getting a bit of pitch-time.

Thinking about when my lad was playing at U11's level, we played a game where only 10 of them turned up anyway in bad weather. After 15 minutes one of the parents who had been moaning about his lad not playing in his preferred position (there wern't enough of them to do it...), called his lad off the pitch, told him to put his coat on, then they got in his car and left, right in the middle of the game. What a twat.

His lad were shyte anyway, but he always had the latest, most expensive boots of anyone in the squad.

All the gear, no idea.

I think that's what fuels the parents anger and frustration as though buying them the best kit is their contribution to the child's development and success and that 'investment ' shows no return.
