Come on guys, is there not anybody else interested in trying to qualify for the mickey flynns event for a bargain price (and enjoy a good day of pool at the same time?)
Some of the tables will be re-clothed in time for this event, but at the moment we are running the risk of having to cancel this qualifier due to insufficient interest/support

I'm up for it too. 16 players would be enough right? You should have no problem getting that. [ This message was edited by: Riggers on 2007-04-16 09:25 ]

Cheers guys its looking a bit better now, 16 players would be enough to run the qualifying event, but not enough to cover the extra £20 prizes so i will have to consider changing the format, we will see how numbers progress through the week, definitely looking better now though.

Since the qualification spot is now only worth £100 are you going to change the entry fee or maybe keep the entry fee the same and have some prize money for winner as well as entry into Mickeys? Travelling all that way just to win a potential £100 in a field of 16 or more is not looking quite so attractive! [ This message was edited by: Riggers on 2007-04-18 21:01 ]

This is something that does need looking at as i fully agree with you about it being a long way to travel for £100 prize with £20 entry fee.
What would the majority prefer? More prize money or lower entry fee???
Once i have a few opinions Riggers i will make a decision
