New League, New Venue

Guys,

First match in our new league tonight

Home match at our new venue the May & Baker Club, our new team name is the "M&B Bakers", our new league is Havering and District Pool League

One thing to remember about tonight, this league plays World Rules not English Pool Rules

Hence the only real changes are:

  • If you are not potting then either the object ball or the cue ball has to hit a cushion.
  • In the doubles there is a 1 minute time limit on your shots, this is doubles ONLY

This prevents players just rolling up behind a ball as a safety shot, so if you want to play safe make sure a ball hits a cushion.

Match Format
  • 6 singles
  • 3 doubles

So there are 3 results match results each night - Thus there are no dead matches really.

  • Overall (singles plus doubles = best of 9)
  • Singles (best of 6 match)
  • Doubles (best of 3 match)

Bakers Demotion Reversed

In a complete reversal, the league has contacted me and informed me that we are restored to the FIRST division. I will explain the the details behind the headline news when we meet.

THUS This weeks fixture is HOME versus the Admiral Vernon

We really do need players being available this week so we can try and get a good start in the FIRST, I know there is Champions league action with Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea but the club will have that showing i am sure. Please DO mail back with your availability, i think the following players will be there, let me know if you won't

Scott DOG
Scott Rose
Dale
Stuart
Yon
Adam
Terry
Mitch
Denis
Me
Peter is on Holiday

This fixture was meant to be away, but due to 3 teams being at home at the vernon we have been asked to play at home. This to add's to the confusion in us being promoted.

I am going to the monthly league meeting tonight, which should be lively given the news.......!

If anyone can offer a lift i would appreciate it as my car is being serviced, if not i will tube it there and back. I will find out what is happening with the fixtures we have missed in the first......in fact this is what i will do at the meeting

1. Get new fixture list
2. Listen to moans from 2nd division captains as our results are now invalid
3. Listen to those unaware of our demotion moan about our promotion
4. Listen to 1st division captains moan as they have to fit in 5/6 more games someohow
5. tell the league organisers what a a complete debacle the whole demotion thing has been.
6. Smile smugly
