I see Lewis Wall scored for Mosgiel in the cup on the weekend, is this right? He was playing for GI 2 weeks ago. WHats the rules around eligibility nowadays? I thought you needed to play two games before you were allowed to play in the cup. I think Mosgiel could be in trouble.
no its changed, you just need to be registered for 10 days now
No way he could have been registered for 10 business days before playing in that game though? West End should appeal!
don't think the regs stipulate business days just days
Chatham Cup Regulations, 7.4.1
"In all matches of this competition, each player, except where he has played for his club during the previous season and has not played in any match for any other club in New Zealand during the current season, must have been registered with his club for ten business days prior to the playing of any match in the competition."
In non-legalese - Mosgiel should be out of the competition
Does West end need to complain? Surely it must happen automatically? It was only 9 days after the transfer unitl he played by my calculations. This is terrible organisation from the club. I heard they had really hoped to go all the way this year.
