Thunder Boy
15th December 2000, 22:21
All the other participating clubs in the Westar competition want to see Peel Thunder eliminated for the simple reason that they are scared.
We (as in the P.T.F.C.) are the only club to run an operating profit, have the best junior development program in the state and are building up quite healthy senior sides.
All the other clubs are worried about the power that the club will exhibit power on the competition that the others will not be able to compete with for many years.
I am a 16 year old who is part of the club and am trainig with the senior boys at the moment and it will be quite sad if my club was to be destroyed. A lot of talented young players will no longer play at Westar level for the simple reason that the travel is too far and they now have a resistance built towards other clubs.
I am just 1 of the many people that does not wish too see Peel eliminated from the competetion and at 16 can already see the reasons behind the aim of removing us from the competition. Why not Perth? The finished below us on the league ladder winning just 1 game. Part of the argument is that we do not have a successful league side. What about Perth?
We will see what happens and as most people that have a vision for the future can see, Peel Thunder need to remain in the competition. As I read somewhere" why remove Peel who cater for much of the South-West of the State while clubs in Fremantle have a lot less area to cover.
The arguments in favour stack well in favour of my football club as far as I can see. We will survive and then you may start to realise what a mistake it was to try and remove us from the competition.
Fight hard and we will suceed boys!
