Can you imagine ole Jay Frye at RNE calling Kurt Burnette at Airport and say, "hey we're a little banged up at QB and WR this week, so let's just call off our game Friday night". This would never happen in football, so why should soccer be so different? This kind of stuff is what gives soccer a 'wimpy' reputation and a black eye.
As the ole ball coach would say, "It's sad"!
