Thanks for your thoughts but the clubs spokesperson made it quite clear that they have no accountability on the matter and went as far as to say they'd never had anyone question it, lol.
I took that as they'd never been called out for their incompetence to the kid that gets dealt that hand, Im sure they just hand the kid back with a sorry and never give how that leaves the kid feeling another thought.

She doesn't want anything from them.
Is it worth reaching out to Keith Thomas as he would have been on the front foot on this matter when he was CEO of PAFC.

Nah, if thats how they knowingly treat kids and think its acceptable simply because people dont call it out then theyre really not worth associating with.

From a pure fan satisfaction point of view, you would think that if theres any time you WOULDN'T want to disappoint a kid, it would be when they've just had to stand there and watch their team get beaten.
Me personally would have a satisfactory backup plan for no other reason than to make a childs day brighter.
Thats when you get around each other.
But thats just me.

The last thing I'd do is have them walked out onto the field and stand there whilst 23 blokes sulk off the ground and say oh well, we told you how it is if we lose, even though they didn't as confirmed by my Wife and Daughter.
I mean honestly, would you wait until 10 minutes before the end of the game and say if we lose youre outta luck, or would that be something you'd disclose to begin with.
Old mate thinks thats an out.

No way, not without tapping someone on the list, at the ground, thats played a bit, on the shoulder and say, can you spare a minute for this kid.
Its only on the odd occasion that they get rolled at home.
They get paid enough, seriously.

Nah, we're out, not getting another dime.

If there is further follow-up you should ask how they're actions for with the mantra of making their community proud.

Ive always been of the opinion that actions speak louder than words, so they can say all they like about who they profess to be, how they conduct themselves betrays it.

And let me be clear, I dont condone the way I handled it, but my response doesnt come about if they did better to begin with.
I would not hesitate to apologise profusely to the staff in question as they are just delivering a poorly thoughtout process.
But the bloke who rang me, who told me my Daughters feelings were unwarranted and then took offence to my lack of remorse, well, he can get stuffed.
