Walsh Speaks Out on Misconduct

Walsh: "Enough is Enough!"

Matty Walsh in Happier Times

Blacks Harbour, NB - It seems some things do not want to go away. After a league game between the NBCC St. Andrews team and the Blackland Twisters in St. Andrews Thursday night, the league referee was not impressed by the conduct of either team. After 8 game misconducts and talk of possible suspensions, the referee in question felt that both sides contributed to the problems and felt that they should stick to hockey before someone gets hurt. He urged that the FIHL take a stance and send out a communication denouncing the play.

After another reading the report from a league referee of misconduct, Matty Walsh was quick and decisive on his take of the affair. In a terse e-mail, Walsh said, "If this continues the entire NBCC team will be asked to leave the league. I don't believe this is a reflection on Justin (Sweeney) as he has put a lot of time and effort into putting this team together. Don't let a few bad apples ruin it for the entire team, please talk to your guys. I take it he (the official) is talking about the NBCC team as the St. Stephen boys have already played several games against other teams in the league and seem to only be interested in playing good clean fun hockey. Granted I am sure they are no different than the rest of the teams and will take matters into their own hands and you can't fault them for that. Let's try to rectify the situation before someone gets hurt, this is not what the league is about. I will personally be attending the next few NBCC games myself to see what the problem is. This is the second reported incident from a referee concerning the NBCC team, their best not be a third. Please take this message to your guys Justin."

No response was offered by either team at press time.
