Muratti ultimatum to Guernsey FC players

THE Guernsey Football Association is forcing Guernsey FC players to choose between the community club or the Muratti.

Sam Cochrane, the Guernsey Muratti captain and skipper of the top-of-the-table Green Lions, has reacted furiously to news of the new association rule.

‘It’s an absolutely ludicrous thing to attempt,’ he said yesterday, sentiments shared by star players Ross Allen and Dominic Heaume. ‘There is a clear amount of jealousy.

‘GFC is the future and it is crazy to try and jeopardise it.’

But GFA chairman Chris Schofield, who said there had been failure on all sides ‘to plan how to effectively manage the change, particularly in lines of communication,’ said the rule provided clarity.
