cls22 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Im the clock operator . I WAS TOLD TO STOP THE CLOCK ONLY WHEN THE REF HELD HIS HANDS IN THE AIR AND HAD THEM CROSSED. I WAS TOLD TO RESTART IT ON HIS WHISTLE. YOU NEED TO NO THESE THINGS BEFORE YOU TALK ABOUT THE CLOCK. No need to shout, though you have a right to explain yourself. I noticed the same things that the other post noticed but it is not a complaint. The original question I asked about the end of the game has been answered. The only thing I don't like is the inconsistancy of the rules. The clock operation was fine, but I think it should be done the same everywhere. If that had been on another field, the referee would have been keeping time and likely would have let that "play" finish until either a score or Shelbyville controlling and clearing the ball. But it went down fairly under the guidelines of that field so whether I like the outcome or not, so be it. Either way it does not diminish the efforts of the two teams in this exciting game and I wish both luck against District 7 next week.

snoop1 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 The referee came to me before the game and told me the way he wanted the clock to run. It had nothing to do with the field or school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennvolfan Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Riverdale 2,312 students Siegel 2,109 students Bearden 1931 students Tullahoma 1,145 students Shelbyville 1,263 students Cookeville 2,178 students McGavock is the largest school in the state. This is the exact point that needs to be made when this discussion comes up. I'm from Tullahoma and you can see that although we have been very successful in the past, when we travel out of the district, we are almost always playing schools that have more student. In the case of Tullhoma vs Riverdale, the student population is almost double for Riverdale. So, in my opinion, you can throw all the theories out there you want to about whether club soccer helps or doesn't help. As for me, I would simply rather have twice as many players to choose from when I'm forming my team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaGavock has 2,800 students, yet their not what I would call a soccer powerhouse. Norte Dame has a little over 500 students, yet they can kick alot of AAA schools butts. Why is CAK (408 Students) and ND so good.....Club players and quality club players plus an attitude and self confidence that they are going to win each time they take the field. But Hey...I've not seen Tullahoma play....If it's because the other schools are larger and have more players to choose from, Well so be it.
