The children's football league which only lists scores as 1-0 or 1-1 'to avoid humiliation after heavy defeats'
All results recorded as 1-0, 1-1 or 0-0 as league refuses to record thrashings 'Shropshire FA have said it is a guideline and we chose to go with it. If someone else wins, the children do not need to be embarrassed'
A junior football league has stopped publishing the results of its matches in case the scores embarrass the young players.
Telford Junior League ? made up of 20 divisions ranging from under-10s to under-16s ? now records all games as either 1-0 wins or 1-1 draws.
Bosses at the league have defended the decision to withhold the number of goals scored which they claim will spare the youngsters the humiliation of losing badly.
