| Chrysler SC-Sparta Western Quarterfinal Controversy
After the first thirty minutes of extra time in the replay, referee Jack Wilson ordered another thirty minutes, as he was under orders from the USFA that the match was to produce a winner. Sparta refused to continue playing, and Wilson awarded the match to Chrysler by forfeit. Chrysler and their supporters thought it was a ploy to avoid losing the match, since they figured the Sparta players were getting tired, and would concede the winning goal. Sparta filed a protest, stating that since Chrysler were not forced to play an extra thirty minutes in the first match, they had no reason to do so in the replay. The USFA sided with Sparta, and ordered a replay for March 29. Chrysler then made a request to push back the replay date, arguing that since they had learned of the date a mere four days before, they needed time to get their players off of WWII defense jobs. When the USFA secretary James Armstrong declared in a telegram that a failure to show for the match would “mean forfeiture of the game and also result in further drastic action”, Chrysler decided to disband and withdraw from all soccer competitions. Three days later the Detroit club reconsidered their stance and offered to play the match on April 5, but the USFA ruled that it was too late. |
