Thought i'd better post a reply. The last league was excellent and looking forward to the next starting. Friendly atmosphere and great club. Only problem was I didn't win the thing, but will try harder next time.

Andy, i quite fancy this but it is a long way to go every week.
Would it be possible if i entered to play double matches and only come down every second week?

Thanks for the king comments christ147 and smart, we do our best  simmo77, there is no problem with this basically you know who the other players are in your group and it is upto you when you play them (4 a night if you wish). We use a rule that you must play at least 1 match every 3 weeks but this is really a minimum in order to keep it moving along. If you are coming every 2nd week that is fine! If anybody would like me to email them further info please send me a pm with your address. Thanks guys.

Kev,
Why not come over next Wed and you can pay me then? I run a straight ko on the same night £3 from 8:30 - you could have a go and meet the other guys etc.. I am there from 7pm if you want to come down for a practice first!

Another big up for this night. Well run on behalf of the players by Andy, decent competition and a good bunch as well (apart from the 'terminator' / 'killer' / 'assassinator' - can't recall what he calls himself!).

Oh and by the way if you look at the you tube link on the front page today that is actually footage of the final last week! Some guy called morales turned up and took down the £30 first prize with that fluke of a kick shot. A real shame as that kid Earl has been there every week for 6 months now and this was his first final. He's always a model sport as well. As you can tell the crowd at Solihull really love their pool. Gotta go work now unfortunately. [ This message was edited by: nicknameless on 2007-11-02 13:42 ]

I am going to leave the weekly comp for now, it's a bit of a drive if i lose 1st round, which is quite possible!
Definately up for it on the 14th though. c u then.
