SOCCER FIXTURES.

(To the Editor) Sir,—l would'like to. reply to “Wjorker” and “GeordiO. P ■ As regards “Worker,” he has not yet thrown any light oil the blundered fixtures, but only thrown mud at the Rewanui Club for not having any representatives at the meetings, in which I well agrde with him, (Still, that does not alter the fact that the original fixtures hilv'd been scrapped. Then he puts lip the lame excuse of Rewanui and Runanga playing on the same ground on the same day. How does lie account for the ground as well as the two teams being idle to-morrow I think “Worker” could just about get us in the same position as we ■ were' in last yea!’, looking for grdiliids ilftffr tlih cricket season starts. lam still of the same opinion that the fixtures were scrapped to suit individuals. If that’s Worker’s” best it is poor. As far as “G'eordie’s” letter is concerned, it doesn’t take long to answer, as ft is a comedian’s from start to finish. However, I will deal only with the strong points and weak excuses. He states Blackball want to play Runafiga at Blackball on Saturday. Very good. I am pleased to note that Blackball are willing to play, but Geordie’s team -s brave to wire Sunday, knotting ftlll well that Blackball ground like Dunollie, is occupied, by League on Sunday, thus showing that Runanga still want their own way. Now, Geordie, co-op. mines and Saturday football don’t go well together. He also tries to make us believe that the first round is finished, but his brain is surely clogged. Surely all the Soccer public know that Soccer fixtures have been drawn up in two founds, each club having a'home and away gable ill bitch round, making ten gatnes in each round for each club, twenty games in dllHoping “Geordie” will show us if tins competition has ever had any more than two rounds, so you have another guess coining, Geordie, and I think this -proves you to be the biggest comedian after all. —I am. etc.; , rewanui-ite.
