I have no idea why MP handled things the way they did. I personally liked the fact that they tried to hold some games. I talked to my kids today and we discussed what happened and how things were handled and what they would have liked.
My children would rather have played the shortened format than to not have played at all!
My thoughts and words here are MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION. Not that of anyone at MP soccer. Just little old me offering my speculation on why they did what they did.
I agree with the other poster who doesn't believe this is some conspiracy by MP soccer. It makes no sense to believe that.
