Chatham forfeits game

Post by jfvoll »

I saw this today
ALERT: @Maroonsgojhlho1 have forfeited tonight's game vs. @LondonNationals and the game has been CANCELLED. The league will not be commenting further at this time.

I wonder what happened. The fact the league won't be saying more is puzzling.

Sometimes you just have to straighten your crown and remind them who they're dealing with.

The ownership contacted the health department for London and he said that it would not be safe coming to London to play because of the 14 day period not being over for their confirmed cases and that the Omicron cases in London are rising, and that is an unsafe environment. The ownership made a decision to not allow their team to travel to London. The GOJHL called it a forfeit but the ownership is challenging that decision based on the information they received for there London medical department

London lost the win because of the use of three 15 year-olds - one over the limit allowed to play in any single game.

London actually had 4 15 year olds in the St Thomas, This comes with a fine for every player over the limit of one 15 year old that can play.

London situation is still nowhere near as bad as the mess with Niagara Falls forfeiting 16 games. What a hot mess this league has become.

As we are now learning, Tony is just a puppet on a short string.
