An apology for a post that was misunderstood.

It has been brought to my attention that the remarks I made yesterday may have been misunderstood. In no way was I trying to say that the officials were the reason for the very close 3-2 game last night with Lancaster.

The general tone of my message was supposed to be towards the refs not calling fouls on either team and quite honestly I think letting the game get out of hand from both sides. I saw what I considered to be fouls committed by my girls that were not called as well as ones that I thought should have been called against the Lancaster girls.

It was not my intention to bash the fine game the Lancaster Ladies played last night but rather to point out my agreement with what has been an often repeated theme this year on the boards that on some occasions the officiating has been less than stellar- both ways- of course the same could be said about my coaching from time to time which is why I went back and made the comment about how I know the refs are doing the best job they can.

Please accept an apology from me if my post came across as anything other than a comment towards the reffing. It was not my intention to disparage the Lancaster soccer program in any way. It was a tough and physical game on BOTH sides with what I considered to be fouls committed by BOTH sides that went uncalled or addressed properly.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Tony
