Thats the problem with 'forum' matches with an advanced layout or financial commitment that needs to be payed on the day..........there always seems to be a casualty or two....whether bona fide or not Image

With a 'club' - generally not too much a problem with membership fees etc covering the no shows.......but yep, been in your boots before Larry and paid deposits and full booking fees out of my own pocket in the past.....and just hope you get the turnout.

Plus some people genuinely cant commit 100% to matches that far in advance, despite their wish to be there if they can make it - work/shifts/holidays/unforeseen family issues etc etc etc etc............but there again, if they'd had to commit to some financial layout some 'no shows' or the impact of them can be minimised to a degree
