AFC Beaumont vs Exeter Arms - OFF

AFC Beaumont P Exeter Arms P

Right, this is unconfirmed by the league and all that. But Exeter Arms have just informed us that they have resigned from the league, therefore our game is off.

This will benefit Countesthorpe and Sunbury at the top as they both lost to Exeter and wont lose as many points.

is this true mate ? whats been said ?

Had a text an hour ago to say there has been a mass exodus and that Exeter have folded. We were down for a rearranged game against them tomorrow. Our game against Countesthorpe was cancelled as we had my grandads funeral to attend.

Looked at results and Sunbury and Countesthorpe both lost to Exeter so wont lose as many points as you guys coz you did exeter twice.

Thanks for the news but the club has not been in touch with the League. We are looking into it as a matter of urgency. There were no problems when we spoke to them earier in the week.

for flips sake. we work our nuts off all season to get in this position only to get shafted by a club that cant manage to see the season out! if it was in december then it could be understood but with only a handfull of fixtures remaining you would have thought they could get through and regroup at the end of the season!!!!!

just spoke 2 dennis roe and he has herd nothing , if we loose the 6 points just have 2 work harder , not impressed haha but nothing suprises me with them !!!!!!

they said they are still to contact the league in the text. am disappointed because was looking forward to building on our win in midweek.

tried calling there gaffer this morning but no answer!
just hope they can do the right thing and see the season out as it would be massively unfair if we were to miss out on th title due to them folding!

I won't start the argument about 'it then remains how you did against the exisiting teams compared to your rivals that wins the league' argument as I know how frustrating this is! (a team folding I mean, not this argument)

But that is a fair point!!

this is not there res , they have been a top 5 team nearly all season , beating count and sudbury , them both top 3 , we are the only team to beat them twice this season so far , last week they said didnt want us to win the league !!!!!!

didnt expect this !!!!

so exeter do the right thing and see the season out ?????????

I think Laughton & Turricki are concentrating more for their Saturday side, Rutland Rangers.

it is a fair point mark, however like gilly said they said to a few of our players before the game that the only thing they were bothered about on wednesday was making sure we didnt win the league. plus they have gone from having 3 or 4 subs against us to maybe folding in the matter of 3 or 4 days!

it may be us being a little over active in the imagination area but you must admit with the info we have it does seem a little coincidental wouldnt you say!

not everything revolves around western atheletic,u win a tin pot division 3 cup and you think everything is about you,a team folding because they dont want you to win the league ha ha,your not that important,dont know you lot as a team but some of you need to get a life,when your in the prem and done ok reply to this thread,then might give you some respect.but wont be holding my breath.

Didn't think the first team could fold I they have a ressies!! ??

Not a word - neither am I aware that there has been any response to attempts by League Officers to contact the Club Secretary.

To be honest I still think you will win the league anyway, with or without the points!

im sorry your right il hold my mouth from this day forward until im sure it will get you respect as this is all i strive for in life. please please please accept my humble apologies.

Sorry Danny, but got this feeling that Sunbury will win their remaining games and pip you for the title if Exeter's resignation becomes official. I have been wrong before though

No way, yet another team in a downward spiral.

Will effect Beesknees also who beat exeter, and are due a 3 point deduction for playing an illegible player, who are certain they signed on!!!! I witnessed the lad signing the orange!!

'signing the orange' and 'registering the orange' are quite separate processes. The Club Secretary is aware of how to proceed.

Exeter R.I.P

who said we are you plum?

obviously a Exeter boy come on to see the stir they have caused me thinks?? sad and pathetic you have to drop out.... your not that good yourself son, hence why you are dropping out as your not good enough even for a div 3 sunday league...

all the talk at our game sunday was the money men from western joining forces with ginner to create a super team in the lower divisions lots of big name players already confirmed apparently

how was it under your rock? a week is a long time to hide under there...

we will win the league if they drop out or not son. promise you that.

and its fact that the lads at Exeter said they would do whatever as long as we didnt win the league, turn up with 4-5 subs against us then 2 days later they cant get a team out?? thats a bit fishy dont you think.... its not all about us but everyone likes to make it about us by commenting about us..... obviously everyone loves us and cant help but go on... we love it, bring it on.
