i never played you last night?

was a good match tho'.
All i want to do is play my 3 frames which i enjoy.
If the team wins then it's a bonus. If not then so be it.

Still missing 2 results from last night,

Spring v Priory
Cobden v Lord Nelson A

If anyone knows them, please let me know.

Good game last night enjoyed the match who said you have quick games with the clock

We'll have to start avoiding these last frame deciders though action, it's not good for my stress levels!!

What do people think to the idea of setting up a singles league in Sheffield to replace the one that used to run at miscues??

We'll have to start avoiding these last frame deciders though action, it's not good for my stress levels!!

What about mine then! I struggle with female opposition.

Was talking about my game with Rabbi :) Only the first sentance was aimed at actionman.

singles league? The only way to do it is play downstairs at spot. If you had 12 players, 6 play one week then 6 the next week and so on. You can't play 2 matches on each table in one night.
Not starting a best of 9 at say 9ish. Each match should be 7 45 start. And games have to be claimed every 10 mins.

manahar, am i on the bottom of the stat ladder yet?

You will be soaring your way up the ladder master action!! Undefeated to date!!

cobden 9 - nelson 6
very poor pool from nelsons number 1 team :)

at the agm i'm proposing for 12 frames. 2 sets of 5 1 random draw and 1 capt pick.
(which cant be same player). And also the 7 .45 to be adhered to. We started at 8 15 last night. Too late for 15 frames.

hats no

15 frames works well if started on time.
It is nice haveing a chance to play 3 frames.

Springfield won 10-5 just had a text

Was talking about my game with Rabbi :) Only the first sentance was aimed at actionman.

Nice to put a face to a site user.

dear mods,
Why has this thread moved?
I applied for a sub message board like football has. I followed procedure and asked
Moonbird weeks ago. Not heard a thing.
This is an on going thread so we could do with one.
Thanks

15 frames works well if started on time.
It is nice haveing a chance to play 3 frames.

I think frames need docking. Balls are racked ready for lag. Then time running is called at 8pm sharp. If still not there then they forfit frame. Then 10 mins later same again. We could've claimed 2 last night.

Did you use the clock ?

Who played for the Cobden last night heard Lee & Craig were away ?

we used clock.

any mods on here?
Post 1000 :clap: :clap: :clap:

Be catching me up soon

Ok Actionman what list of things would you like to be brought in next season

dunno all their names. Only Lee was away though

I think Springfield have had ahard deal with the players moveing teams maybe someone that moves teams can only play each team twice in the season.

12 frames as i said earlier or if 15 the strict docking of frames for late show. No transfers between teams at all!! Unless your team folds. 2 scorecards per match.

tch.

Yes 2 scorecards amatch with address on the back of the Nelson so they can be posted or copy of card scanned and sent to Rob so scores can be updated every week.

Agree with 2 cards and in an easily mailable format or allow it to be scanned and sent by email.

Would love to see the clock go but I don't think thats gonna happen whilst we still have 15 frames.

To be honest though, i've only see about 2 or 3 teams use it all season and the latest night we have had has been about 11:30 always starting at around 8pm or sometimes even half past. Didn't know about the claiming frames rule every '5!!' minutes from 7:45

Since Rabbi is avoiding it, ask him how many balls he had left after he played me :D lol

just a few things i would like changing next season
1 no transfers at all
2 games to start at 7.45 prompt
3 games to be claimed every 10 mins after 7.45
4 players names to be put on seperate score cards
5 scorecards to be filled in full by 8.30
6 stopwatch to be used in every match
7 games played in order of scorecard
8 fines for non attendance of meeting
9 increase in prize money
10 points structue revised to 1pt per frame thats it
11 no matches to be canceled
12 singles and doubles not to be used as a slot on Wednesday
13 team KO to be played home and away at end of season
14 3 men comp to be a new KO 9frames played on night teams picked at random

cuepower the man with honest opinions

I like the points system changeing as the team that wins the most frames in the season wins the League.

Yes mr Beardshaw, I had 7 balls left on,

I also gave your star player a beating and as a team team you were beaten, That's why it's a team game, If I play badly I have a team to bail me out! :loopy:

I also gave your star player a beating

I still think you were lucky ;) if that white would have landed anywhere else but behind one of only 2 balls left on with a straight black it would have been good night vienna but then thats how it goes sometimes :) lol

that's the last 2 matches we come from behind.

I think we should start every frame with 4 bags covered and 11 balls in the rack, that will save Cuepower and Actionman 10 minutes a frame

Yes agood idea for practice for are inexperienced players to play against them like that.

13. no. abolish team k.o.
14. agreed.and also for extra fun make it a scotch 3 man!!

1. Y
2. No later than 8, 7.45 is good for me though.
3. Y
4. Shouldn't be neccesary if the winning side take the card.
5. I'd say 1 hour after start.
6. Y
7. Y
8. Y
9. That's all dependant on monies going in, It's nice to win a bit extra, but wouldn't fancy the subs going up more, regardless of who pays or how it's paid.
10. 1 pt per frame and 4 point win bonus.
11. I think it's allowable under extreme circumstances, but all teams have enough players registered

12. N, I agree with Correction man on this one.
13 One leg will be fine thankyou.
14, Y.


Lag at start of each set , not per frame.

get rid of doubles ko aswell or go scotch. Or make team ko a 5 man scotch event. Be fun.

Or a killer knockout like the one they did in Derby afew years ago where there was asemi and a final were 4 out of the 8 in the semi went into the finals.

Killer, yeurchh

League.
Singles.
Top 16 K.O

and any 2 from KO, Doubles and 3 man.

Wondered if you could just check the stats Rob as i have played in 8 matches at least and played 3 games in all but 2 matches when i played 2 games.

The last 3 games aren't on yet!

just a couple of issues AL
1PT PER frame would keep the league interesting as 4 teams would still have a chance of winning the league not as it is now all over by half way it would be decided by the team winning the most frames winning the league also it gives players something to play for when a team gets to 8
on the singles and doubles night maybe we could run a KO for players not in any of them to keep interest

Thats why i said a killer ko something diff to fill up the weeks when the latter rounds of the doubles & singles are played could do it down at spot on semis and final.

what day would singles league be on, and how much to enter?

also am i right in thinking waller could stop playing now and guarantee top of rankings?

Im i right in saying that you could bring agame forward on singles week.

Or you could do the team knockout draw at the next meeting and bring that game forward instead of waiting until the end of the season.

also am i right in thinking waller could stop playing now and guarantee top of rankings?

No!
He could stop now and then not play in top 16 ko.

make the team ko. In mosconi format.

Is it 35games or 60% of games needed to be played

...........

i thought it was 50% in which case he cud? y wud he not be allowed to enter top 16 KO?

It was 50 games last season i think over 96 games

last year was just over 50% in which case he cud retire for season undefeated. Wud be very difficult to go another 30+ games without dropping one

Maybe he hasn't played G-Force yet ?

theres still time...

Is Inticrap still on honeymoon this Wednesday?
I wouldn't like to claim a gimme in the doubles if he's enjoying sun, sea, sex and booze.

Or would I? jammy git

im probs been thick but i won 6/6 at start for cobden but stats say won 2 lost 3? did first 2 cards go missing does anyone know, shud be 11-4 overall but i know there not updated yet, just confused that cards from weeks ago not handed in yet

not completely sure how i just posted that on my old account? must be cos im on uni computers

1st game was against Springfield, card missing, second game against Nelson B you won 2 and lost 1. Sorry Phenom, the stats never lie!!

springy 3/3, priory 3/3, nelson b 2/3, standard 0/2 (DOH!), red lion 3/3, nelson a 2/3, sportsman 2/3

does that mean cos cards missing i dont get the points?

yup, fraid so.

Anyone know when Phil returns?

Yes i think we need 2 cards next season or like been said before winning team takes the card.

Question to all the EPA veterans out there...

EPA Rules
-------------

The only exception here is that in our monday league the following applies

- Your openant fouls from the break, You get 2 shots, ball in hand, Free ball and you must nominate your colour weather you pot or miss after the first shot / visit.

Scenario
-------------

1. Player 1 breaks and fouls (pots white)
2. Player 2 visits the table with ball in hand & free ball but must nominate their colour after the first shot no matter what
3. Player 2 fouls in firts visit (pots red & white)
4. Player 1 visits the table, takes a free ball (yellow) but does not pot
5. Player 1 nominates their colour (Red) but rolls that over the bag and does not pot

My understanding
----------------
At point 4 its an 'open' table, first legal ball potted is your ball (Free ball is irrelevant)
At point 5 its still an open table for player 2 as nothing has been potted (Nomination of ball is irrelevant)

i know theres nothing rabbi can do about it, and its not a dig at him, but isnt it possible then for the top teams (whose players are near the top) to "lose" the card and keep their own players near the top? annoying that i lost 2 against springy for netheredge (card handed in) and then win 3 against them for cobby (card lost)

No i wouldnt lose a card if my team lost not in the spirit of the game even if the players lose they still need to make the 35games mark.

The Springfield card may turn up i know there a honest team must be just lost.

i know they wudnt lose it on purpose as i know them all well, and it wasnt directed at anyone particular was just saying the possibility was there. Problem is without a card rabbi cant take peoples word for it

Yes open table.
In old epa its first legal ball potted,including following a foul. The only time you nominate isif you pot 1 from each group.
The monday lge is a hybrid set of rules.

any missing cards should be docked 3pts for the offending team. Winners to take card.
Simples orlov!

The Springfield card may turn up i know there a honest team must be just lost.

Does it matter either way? I've been told the 2 cards we handed in will now NOT count as they were too late :huh:

To be fair though, you have not turned up to the meetings either, it's not because the cards were late but if you're not at the meeting to discuss where the card is then we can't make exceptions! At AGM it was decided that the cards should be handed in by Saturday of the week the games were played. No one is doing this so i'm flexible enough to wait until the meetings. We have exceptions ie Red Lion using a piece of paper instead of a card, not going to the meeting, paper goes missing. Who should be penalised?? It's not that I don't want to put the stats on but if people can't get me a piece of card during the already extended time period then is that fair to the people who do???

Rant over!

Nelson V Netheredge game is been played tonight

C'mon Nelson

Should be agood game were at full strength i think

Thats very interesting .......... So how many has he missed? NB: I am not our captain and was under the impression / he said he had been going to the meetings.

*Sigh* another team I am probably going to have to inherit the captaincy for!

:o :confused: :o

Thats very interesting .......... So how many has he missed? NB: I am not our captain and was under the impression / he said he had been going to the meetings.

*Sigh* another team I am probably going to have to inherit the captaincy for!

Can you tell me how many have been missed please and how far behind on subs we are?

It's normal for the person who has been collecting the subs from each player every week to be going to the meetings usually isn't it?

Update team stats
Me 21-10
Bri 20-12
Steve 26-7
Rob 25-10
Frank 13-11

Craig must have played well

they will have to play well next match or they will get a good hiding its going to be men against boys and i mean boys and high opinionated players who think they are better than everyone else bring it on gay boys:hihi::hihi:

Lmao simon yeah he did play well. Hw cn u comment cuepower didnt we knock u out in first round? And as 4 gayboys did u and si enjoy watching simons porno together? Awww hw sweet bet u held hands n everything

N maybe u dnt understand scotch doubles si, its difficult for jst one player to play wel. maybe thats y no one wanted to drag u thru after each one of your wild shots

is the doubles scotch?
Oh and btw my stats
9-0

Yes, the doubles are scotch.
Mick's improving at getting out of snookers.

Good luck Phenom i can see your stats takeing abig drive in the next 2 matches

I think they should get rid of scotch doubles as all you need is 1good player the other player only needs to pot and listen dont even need to know the rules.

It's not quite as simple as that, Simon, although I don't like the talking between shots of the same visit

Yes, the doubles are scotch.
Mick's improving at getting out of snookers.

Lol..... Ha

Strangely i dnt wake up in a cold sweat worrying bout stats every morning! They aint the greatest marker when terry hunt and aggie arent near the top, am sure ur guna argue with me 4 sum reason as u got nothing better to do bt believe me there are more important things then pool, honest

Take a lie down in a darkened room young man, sleep it off and change your password to something your lass can't guess:hihi:

He just a pot pig who cares

Yes its a shame i thought what a nice young guy when i first got him in afew team 6month latter and he wont even talk to me when i help his teams out at the last min and travel 30mins to do so.

Take a lie down in a darkened room young man, sleep it off and change your password to something your lass can't guess:hihi:
:hihi::hihi::hihi: he`s not under thumb is he?

I'm not saying he is under the thumb.
Evidence suggests that a man would not post such incredulous codswallop as this

"believe me there are more important things then pool"

Can we actually have a decent convo on here for once instead of all this stupid bickering, it's no wonder people dont want to play in the leagues any more with s@*t like this going on all the time.

Phenom, we all know you can play the game, and are a decent player but you dont have to keep going on about it, it will start to if not already p@@s people off, just let your game do the talking. :)

Yorkie33, We all know you love your stats and the game, and im sure everyone is apprecative of what you do in helping teams out :D:D, but you need to stop putting the bait in the water, and rising to the bait when it is cast at you and just let him get on with it. :(

Remember this is just a game, a hobby. We do it for the fun of it.
At the moment it's starting to sound like a matter of life or death.

:rant::rant::rant::rant:

Oi shut it :)
we all need something to read everyday :D

He just a pot pig who cares

the irony of it, im the one that looks like a pig?

craig- yeah i think i was ill when i said pool isnt everything, i shall take that lie down in a min lol

phil- couldnt care less whether people thought i was good or bad, just sooo easy to wind porky up!

jbaki- :hihi:

Shame you have to get personal i was only haveing a joke when i said Craig must have played well hardly worth getting upset about just shows what your like.

dont get upset porks was only having a laugh back! surely u didnt expect me to stay silent? just shows what your like...

its interesting reading the posts today its not nice to see people getting upset over just friendly banter take a tablet it could work as for pool the man to see is Mr dudley a decent man who tries to help anyone so don't get upset when he tries to wind u up its just fun

The lads got alot to learn says he going to be the best in 2 years 1st he got to learn a safety game otherwises everyone going to know his weakness only trying to help.

I just wanted to give him some extra pressure going into are game he know got to prove me wrong.

If you want to get personal lad say it to my face lets see where we go from there.

You know where i am come and have a chat with me just me & you think it needs sorting out.

4 posts, that must constitute a bite? :hihi:

Why dont you come and sort it out you saying things are right when your in amood everytime im at agame

when is the match deadly?

I just dont like playing when there a atmosphere only get it on a Thursday know would like to sort it out the game your on about is week Weds

u said it ureself im there every thursday so u get ure chance to say what u like? then u complain of an atmosphere, but say u want to put pressure on me on weds therefore creating an atmosphere

i mean the money game.

Dont know when he gets £100 of his own no rush i think im playing Adrian at old epa before then for £100

u said it ureself im there every thursday so u get ure chance to say what u like? then u complain of an atmosphere, but say u want to put pressure on me on weds therefore creating an atmosphere

Yes your not that easy to talk to as you get the face on at the slightest thing i thought if we had a chat just me & you without anyone there be better.

lmfao, explain to me how i can "get face on at slightest thing", when previously u said we never speak? surely its one or the other?

I just turn up or you moody anyway

ure right si ure arrival does dampen the mood, maybe u need to get involved a bit more, have a bit of a laugh etc

Thats what i was doing Thursday but you dont understand my sense of humour

I think your a waste of time ive offered to sort it but do you say you will only talk to me on amatch night when you know i cant talk freely.

sounds like handbags.
Si it be better off if you stop winding neil up and biteing back.
Neil, stop biteing and being personal. Not the adult thing.
Lets just talk pool guys.
End of!!

Here Here,

At last, a voice of reason!!

I agree just wanted to chat with him to sort it out dont like things draging on not fair on other people we all want agood night when we play.

Is there awebsite for the Interleague ?

Is Interleague worth a website ?
What would you like to know?

Sould start a new thread with all the arguing on here. Steel City bitches lol

Barnsley haven't got a venue, The Juniors don't have a venue and the fixtures were set on a bank holiday. I'll take charge when they get venues sorted.

Barnsley haven't got a venue, The Juniors don't have a venue and the fixtures were set on a bank holiday. I'll take charge when they get venues sorted.

Yep ... I take it your referring to Junior county too as they do not have a venue either since miscues closed (our youngest player plays for s.yorks junior side)

Rabbi, can we sort the cards issue out? or do I have to penalise our captain? (if he actually turns up to the next game after the txt I sent him)

Like I said previously, I'm not bothered about the rest of team but Terry's stats should be counted as out of all of us he actually has a shot at the top 16 (if the missing stats are counted) c'mon be 'spotsman' like :) Its not the rest of teams of fault (We didn't know!, rant if you will) I will probably end up taking over our team anyway and if I do, I will endevour to ensure we are represented at 'EVERY' meeting! :)


If anything just add stats for everyone bar A. Raynes :D

Ta

you've got 'royal standard' listed as a team.
they now play from sheaf house!
if anyone wants to play from the standard call in to speak with the manager.

Ta

If you need aplayer ive got anumber of someone

if terrys stats are counted from missing cards, can mine too :)

I think he means the 2cards that have been sent in

If teams want next season they can drop the cards with me i will then send acopy of the card off on email to Rob and take them in at the meetings may help with a quicker update.Just have to post on here that they dropped them with me.

If we go to 2 cards next season (1 for each team) , then that shouldn't be necessary Simon, but I would make both teams submit a card to the league and deduct points for each missing card,
reason being that you may get the odd slack team that just thinks the other team will submit theirs.

I think my idea would only help maybe Cobden & Springfield as i only really see there players all the time Punchbowl & Nelson teams cards are in early anyway plus Hign Noon capt knows how to send in acopy anyway.

Like you said 2cards 1teams card will be in early in most of the games.

plus Hign Noon capt knows how to send in acopy anyway.

I'm not capt of our team.... Going to see what happens at next match first and if our current Captain turns up I may suggest that I take over. If that happens we shouldn't get this problem any more. It will mean loosing my sunday lay in though :roll:

But yes, if I take over I will dig the scanner out and send them in every week. Hell I would have done that anyway if I had known we were not being represented at meetings .... wondered why he was not bothered about getting the cards off of me even though I kept trying to give them to him to take meeting.

Sorry dont want to upset anyone else

Yes you may as well send them in anyway know by email

if terrys stats are counted from missing cards, can mine too :)

stats cannot be counted from missing cards as a true record cannot be made this is just unfortunate

I think mr beardshaw is unlucky he sent his cards in but abit late.

Maybe agood pen would be 0-3 for the capt of the team that should have handed the cards in not really fair on everyone else in the match.

wud only work if captain was bothered about their stats, team penalty wud ensure the team make the captain hand card in

Maybe with no card the other team who no fault of theres get 15-0 as no one can prove who won what.

imagine tho if ure team lost out on frame difference cos of it

Wouldnt happen i do a copy of the cards and send mine in.

wudnt matter what u did with ure card. if a team on same frame difference as you got 15-0 due to the team they were playing not handing card in, then wn league. this is jusy hypothetical by the way, nt talking about any teams in particular

I see what you mean but got to say its not fair when you get 1team at the bottom puts there card V say team A they get all the stats and dont V all the rest anyone can lose 1 card but anymore you got look at it i like that High Noon have adressed the problem so we can forgive them.

Its too late know but something for next season

It's looking like the Netherthorpe side is unable to make the trip to GY, thanks to the "Elite" amongst the squad.

Thanks guys, from the people who make an effort.

unless he's reeling him in.

Wasn't aware Terry had been playing in anything this week :huh: am I being stupid again ? :confused:

Also ... Si!

I am looking forward to v'ing your team on Wed :) Hopfully I will be able to pit myself against you all three frames and have decent game with a true sportsman. I think I would probably enjoy loosing to you :D

i think the problem is a combination of things
1-no team spirit
2-people should commit to GY or don't play interleague
3-money for GY should be collected at first instance
4-people getting ****** then trying to play pool
5-people turning in to bed 2 hours before round robin starts
all these things are why we don't have a side at GY this year

1, There was no problem with team spirit until April, something which would hopefully have been rectified this time, but the one's that pull out are obviously the ones that lack it most.

2. I agree, 3 superstars that don't go are no better than 3 dumplings that do , it's a waste of time qualifying to have them cry off.

3. agreed

4. interesting, I find that the people that enjoy being there tend to fare better than the ones that don't , each to their own. some like a drink and take the games in their stride.
Not 1 player goes to lose.
One player that doesn't drink tends to go to GY and play like a "Vauxhall Shove it" than a "Vauxhall Victor" but is more than happy to blame everybody else.

5. I don't neccesarily agree with doing this but can we really attribute anyone's poor performance on this? or drink for that matter? The tee totallers under performed as much as anyone.

I'm hugely disappointed, I thought we were in with a chance of picking up a few quid, The Normans Elite showed the way last time around and this time they were knocked out in qualification, maybe our "Elite" lack the bottle.

Hatfeilds were 2 players short. Wasn't worth playing.

Jasons victory would be expected from those that know him. He'll beat Berriman.

Clayton played well. The margin would have been a lot bigger if he hadn't been in such a rush to get over the winning line. Ben will win their re-match as well.

u say the people who did not drink dint do well maybe its because if they see people rolling in at 5and 6am they think whats the point in trying to play pool with a side that has had no sleep and still ****** its not good for team spirit i think if it were a singles comp say ipa or premier pool they would not do it

V disapointing havin a team qualify then nt go. Doesnt giv gr8 hope to players like myself who are tryin to improve to b classed in same group as the elite, n then they dnt go.

Very interesting that you know about it before their team mates. :huh:

mr chairman told me so i gave my opinion.

april 2008 i gave my cheque to kev.
then i was given it back as we didn`t have a team to go.
can we have a list of who cried off :roll: please. how many paid?? nothing was said reguarding names.
as a result dinno reached the semis.

then oct 2008 i didn`t go myself for which i had very good reasons as some will know. for which i went and told my capt face to face my reasons and he respects me for doing that rather than find out second hand.but i made sure we had a full team before doing it.
and i get slaughtered for it behind my back by some, but not all players who at one time haven`t always been the most reliable.
mr chairman found out secondhand which has upset him. correction if i`m wrong.
at the time i said to myself that if this happens again then.... welll..i might look elsewhere..
i know i don`t play interleague this season but what`s to stop this happening next year.
remember there`s no i in team and anyone of us lot can win and lose as more or less than each other over one frame in gr ymth.

best of luck guys :)

Maybe its their lack of team spirit that keeps them sat sulking in a van all weekend blaming everyone else despite being well below par.
One person was as high as a kite all weekend yet was our best performer, 3 out of 4 for 2 people that rolled in drunk at silly o'clock. I can't help thinking that if people put more effort into the pool game than the blame game then there wouldn't be as much of a problem. I know for one that it wouldn't make a difference whether it was interleague or ipa or anything else as everyone knows what they are comfortable with.

are you going for a gander?
and yes jason`s a very good epa money player.
being loaded helps with the pressure tho`. :)
when`s ben`s rematch?

If we pull out of this interleague then the

high on what??
it doesn`t matter on stats it`s how you play.
some people get frames give them.
some work hard for it.win or lose.
some get punished for one little mistake.
some win despite numerous mistakes.
some play really bad.
some dry break or never have a shot.
some are lucky to win.
some are unlucky to lose.

If we pull out of this interleague then there is no point carrying on this year.
We failed to get out of the group stage by 2 frames in the first match and lost last October to the team that won it in April.
improvement is required but not much

I'm hugely disappointed, I thought we were in with a chance of picking up a few quid, The Normans Elite showed the way last time around and this time they were knocked out in qualification, maybe our "Elite" lack the bottle.

These are the facts when we went with a team not involving The Elite players we were getting to the last 16 this involved players trembling like a leaf (Junior) this was due to the fact he had got the bottle to go to Yarmouth and play on the big stage in front of the countrys best players and give it his best, you can not give it your best if your not there is this what they call a team.
And as for the Sheffield Elite team proposed who will register them? who will captain them? who will wipe their arses?
And as for Interleauge there will be no interleauge next year because the players who have played to get the Elite there will not be playing next year believe me hence no team no Barnsley teams no Interleague and no one to run it the way things are going.

Enough now about the facts just carry on destroying the bit of pride some have shown in SYCP over the years 15

Who gets your place if your not going ?

A team on the reserve list I imagine.

Doesnt it go 2 the team im in

There's a chance if you are on the EPA reserve list.

I thought it would have gone to the side that was 3rd i know Barnsley went the other year when someone dropped out.

wud take the shine off it a bit, going down due to someone else pulling out. if we do get the spot im nt going unless were short.

I would have thought it was better ateam from South Yorkshire going then anyone else

yeah i agree, id just rather earn a spot than qualifying second out of 2 teams

I think it would be agood experience for some of the players and may help them in the furture with nerves.

yep, just for me its a lot of money, when in reality the chances of us achieving much are slim since we couldnt even qualify from our own group. and since i dont drink id be going a long way for relatively small amount of frames. it is fun tho, when i went with uni if was a good laugh and im sure players will enjoy the big stage

Yes be a 1 off for some there alot of knockouts so wouldnt just be the group matches we would be playing.

im not saying i wont go, its just if others have turned up for more matches then they shud go, and id rather win our way down there (so i have excuse to spend the money lol)

Its the Interleague Cup

at the end of the day we shouldn`t really be having this conversation reguarding interleague.
can anyone from the otherside of the arguement come on here to comment.
be nice to here both sides.

Its ashame i think the county going the other way getting more players.

from what i gather al, they dont want to pay there money to go down with what they percieve to be a squad in-capable of winning, which is fair enuf, but in that case they shudnt of entered

I understand the teams been down many times so they want to get into the money with us it would be for the experience

from what i gather al, they dont want to pay there money to go down with what they percieve to be a squad in-capable of winning, which is fair enuf, but in that case they shudnt of entered

i know!
i will always give people benefit to defend themselves

only 18 miles to huddersfield!!

This is a disgrace and a lack of respect towards the interleague system.
It's a waste of talent to have the talent in the team to qualify and then not bother playing the finals.
Not fair on the players not good enough to get to these finals who would love the chance to play, what are your thoughts 8ball tiger?

agreed!! :|

My thoughts are unprintable Mark, I would like the 3 guilty parties drummed out of the Interleague and SYCPA for eternity. We could have attempted qualification with 3 other players and maybe taken a T E A M down there instead of being let down by the 3 I's that don't go in team. As for having their opinions Al, we have got them, they aren't going. Mark, I'm glad you posted that last post of yours, it shows you pay attention and learn from me, for people that don't know, what Mark posted is an almost carbon copy of what I posted regarding him and Lakin not playing a final a couple of weeks ago.

at the end of the day we shouldn`t really be having this conversation reguarding interleague.

I'm sure they will know of the forum by now, nothing is stopping them coming on and having their 2 pen'orth

I can't believe I left this post so long, it resembles a poem for quitters.
It's the rough guide of excuses.

Maybe we should cancel the last 16 k.o because everybody else in the league may have had some bad luck or not had a shot or maybe were unlucky in 1 frame where they had 3 balls safe from the opponents break, in fact cancel all competition play, just to be fair.

Has G-Force pinched your laptop?

Right , I'm not sure whether my spleen is ventilated or ruptured, but I'm grabbing a can of pop to take my chill pill with
:smile:

You know the score know all you can do is bulid your team for your next year let the players that are not happy have there own side maybe for the best are you could have maybe have 3teams next year in the interleague from Sheffield.

Anyway good night last night Springfield 8-4 Nelson B

all i`m saying is a couple of bad/unkucky 1 frame losses doesn`t make you a bad player.

at the end of the day i`m not goin to fall out with them over a game of pool.
but then again it doesn`t affect me this year does it!
but it could do in future?

all i`m saying is a couple of bad/unkucky 1 frame losses doesn`t make you a bad player.

i know what you are trying to say but I'm afraid that the stats are everything, shoulda, woulda , coulda does nothing down GY, and the hard facts are that if you don't win the frames then you don't win matches.

Even harder fact is that if you don't turn up then you don't win frames or matches.

I still don't know who under-performed due to drink at GY, can anyone answer that?

no idea!
lack of sleep by some.

Its very hard to win aevent if your been up all night drinking maybe good for around or 2 but it will catch up with you i think thats what he means.

Thats when the drugs come in handy :)

Joking btw...although what anyone chooses to do or not do is no concern of mine.

anyway what`s the outcome?
is the team going?

also why didn`t we go in april 2008?
8ball owl can answer that one. :)
i would like to know who couldn`t go then to see if it`s any of the same players. :)
if not , then the people who couldn`t go then shouldn`t be too judgemental this time round. :roll:
myself included.(oct 2008).
at the end of the day i know mr chairman and 8ball owl are big enough to sit down and talk to the said players. :thumbsup:

Joking btw...although what anyone chooses to do or not do is no concern of mine.

it is for me.
if you have to take any type of illegal drug to stay alert or calm you down when you`re playing then in my eyes it`s cheating!! :mad:

I was joking Al.
Yes someone using drugs to help them compete is to be frowned upon.
But someone could be in a better state having danced around the night before on an E than on the lash all night. Is that cheating because it is illegal?

Whatever, I think that an easy night on the friday before getting up to play at 9 worked better for me when I went last. I don't personally want to turn to the rest of the team after losing and say "well it was a good night wasn't it?".
But I do think that a few people didn't seem to suffer.

Academic for me as I wasn't going and haven't been let down by others choosing not to.

I know TF is having a word again on wednesday at their league match with 2 players the other player in question would not even have a conversation last night when we played against his team I am not happy that I found out after everybody else.
And as for April 2008 same old story as this year out comes the Guinness book of excuses and lack of commitment to your so called TEAM but now that is not a problem because there is no team and certanly no ELITE team:hihi:
It would be nice for the Three Elite to have let me know instead of me putting my time and effort in to make sure that we got there:rant:

I'm personally just dissapointed that there are loads of players playing for a chance to qualify, and others who do and just don't care. Why should any of us bother, you've qualified this year, so play this year! Then, next season, IF the elite thing gets off the ground, which is looking more and more unlikely, qualify through that. Don't scupper the chances of the whole team. It's not fair to them.

Sort it out boys and let's just play!!:loopy:

your right rabbi.

no idea!
lack of sleep by some.

Ok, next question, Who did not go out,did not get drunk or smoke anything odd and played to a standard expected of them ?

That qualifies as post of the year in my book, I hope that all is sorted, I want to get my monies paid out, despite really not being in any sort of situation to pay.
I'm disappointed all round, if we do scrape up the team, then our collective spirit will have been dented further, un-neccesarily.
One thing is for certain, I will crack on and knuckle down for the lads that haven't upset the apple cart and show honest desire to play and win.

only a.h. did

i never knew it had a website.
got a forum on it aswell.

16 teams?, we've nearly caught up.

I would like to help Springfield setup a B team to add one more team

Are league is alot stronger you can see that by the number of xtour players or tour players anyone know the number in the league.

@ Si / Yorks33

Sorry for very short notice but we may need to postpone our match tomorrow with you guys due to unforseen circumstances with one of our players and I think our Capt might actually be on holiday and we only 5 regular players. Do you have the number for your gaffe? Ill try and get hold of out capt tomorrow and if so i'll call and 'ask' if we can postpone at late notice.

What's the standard notice we have to give by the way?

not sure if its 24 or 48 hours.

On that footing you could sign someone on the night

si is our game with u postponed next weds? in which case couldnt u sign sum1 on the night :P

Not if you give the right notice if its short notice then you have that option.

Interesting news, I was watching "The Prestige" last night, and alongside Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman and Scarlett Johannson was this fella http://www.hotflick.net/pictures/006PSG_Christian_Bale_108.html I have no idea how he does it, turning up for all these pool matches and making a hollywood career, G-Force is a true legend!

:( Can't get hold of our Capt so it looks like we are going to end up being 2 short. With only the possibility of one non-regular being able to play so we would still be 1 short.

Si, can you pm me the number I need to call? I'm not sure weather I should be calling your captain (is that you?) or the Netheredge Tav

also very doubtful that we will be able to find anyone to sign.

canceling a match because u have 1 player short should not be concided u should play with 1 short because of the short notice u have given . a result in your favour can still be obtained as u have 12 frames to play also many players have other comitments on other days so it would be hard to fit it in at another date

The match starts in 6hours ive got players wanting to know if the games been played tonight its getting very late in the day i dont want to fall-out with you but its getting to the point where we will just turn up and if your aplayer short we will still play the match.

lol @ phenom.
8bt, i could learn alot from you.

You could Mark, but only if you show me how to play pool

I think were going to need a free week next season if your going have games called off.

Very very sorry Si, Please check your PM's I didn't see yours until just now. Not sure why :(
