Panaad gets silent treatment

I talked with Panaad's Ian de Ramos and he said until now, there has been no contact from the PFF or AFF regarding Panaad Stadium's condition.

He was suprised to hear that the AFF and PFF have issued a statement already.

What they did today, upon reading the stadium could be a venue for the semifinals from the papers, was to make initial preparations for the field. He admitted there were some bald areas in the field, but so did that Indonesia stadium, right?

Panaad will host the Provincial Meet on Dec. 13 to 19 and the Prisaa Regional Meet after that. But he said there will be no problems hosting the AFF match because it will be held at night.

To be perfectly blunt it was a scrappy game from a scrappy team that seemed to treat the SEAG as a vacation, or a chance to gain more Twitter followers. (Yey, I can tweet the team apology first!) Going into the match, almost every fan who paid attention knew that we needed to win. Unfortunately, it seemed the players were operating on a different mindset.

Fair Play: The Devil's Advocate and CFA vs. CAFC

(This is my Fair Play column for Sun.Star Cebu on Feb. 6) I GOT an interesting e-mail the other day about the consequences for teams that withdraw from PFF-organized national tournaments and its corresponding sanctions. I guess, it’s time to play Devil’s Advocate. For PFF-organized events, there are four types of withdrawals—after confirming participation but before grouping or scheduling takes place, after regional finals but before grouping in nationals, after the grouping in the nationals, and in the course of the national competition.
