Quote: DG Sport "Chequersfield we're kicked outta leagues for a string of bad behaviour a few years back. One incident where a chequersfield player Bit part of an opposing teans physio's ear and the fans shot the ref with an air pistol. Also ponte social (chequersfield reformed) have been known for causing trouble in games this season, for example Vs Stainland where they were throwing punches and trying to bully stainland and the ref. "Great" team. Would be fun to see them playing against woodhouse.'"
Chequerfield were never kicked out of the league, The biting bit was on the head of a physio when they were playing Stanningley Crown in Leeds, Crown were the scummiest team iv ever played against, the physio was not an innocent bystander, it was a ball bearing gun not an air pistol it never hit the ref was just fired into the air. Throwing punches and trying to bully goes on in a lot of games, we played them in Ponte 1st game of the season beat them no problems. the lads told me themselves they had a tougher dirtier game in Greetland last Sat. Chequerfield had a few games running were they got some bad press and gave them a bad reputation, undeserved in my view i could name you many teams and clubs much, much worse than them and not all were from the old Yorks league
