Sorry all matches played before next match schedule, unless in writing due to holidays etc.

Check your inbox...

must be alot of players near lewisham, crazy if not

Have to say that although there were 6 of us in Brighton last night, it was a good bunch of people and we all just got on with it and had a laugh.

Nice to finally play some semi-competitive pool again (even if i did get stuffed)

We had 10 show up at the bush last night,good entertainment of pool and no complaints.

and thanks Shir for organising...on the ball as always.

roll on next week.

Shock, horror! Still no refund to the value of £34.95 even though it was sent first class about a week ago? No reply to my PM either...

Yeah yesterday was fun!
Thanks everyone that came yesterday to play..
Looking forward to next week!!!
7.30 start next week instead of 8!!
Will send an email out soon to everyone!

Hi guys

before anyone gets confused the 7.30 start time is for sheps bush only!!

as for Mr Muse, sorry but i dont control the royal mail, instead of bitching why not just ask via pm for confirmation of postage??. i'll cancel your cheque and issue another if you like or can even paypal if you wish? but i am fast running out of patience with your sarcasm.


Thanks for the great messages from the players last couple of nights, looking forward to building on it, 3 more clubs today phoned with players, managers starting to realise how easy it is!.

I hate to say I told you so but...

I TOLD YOU SO!

@ Agentsoap, how many people have you got in your club?
And have the results been sent to results @ gb9leagues . info ? (spaced the email address out to prevent too much spam coming in)

we got 7 players in the Sunderland Rileys - as far as I know the sheets have been filled in and handed in since the start 3 x weeks ago !

@shir
i have pm'd you

Maria

they need to be emailed though...
not sure if all managers or the people running it in the club know about this...
Sorry can't help you further..
I have emailed them but not sure if Tone needs to wait for everyone to email results every week...

ok, just got back in from a league night. So sorry for the delay in replying. i will answer your queries as soon as i get a brew on!.

Muse: members have voices and are heard and considered. You are not a member and are nothing more than a trouble causer. I will not rise to your constant negative posts.

Hi all,

I’d like to take the opportunity to bring you up to speed as to where the leagues are and what progress is being made.

Firstly though, let me address the question from agentsoap.

The updating part of the website was to be based around the new software I have had written to run the leagues, pretty much automatically. Our software guy has had some trouble integrating it with the web host and as such we have as yet not been able to update that area of the site.
In the meantime I have made provision for results to be displayed as a national table for the minute (club and regional to follow). The reason there is not currently any table there is that we are still awaiting some results from clubs to come in. Managers have been contacted and reminded and the table should be up before the week is out. (agentsoap – note we started the league two weeks ago, tonight is the 3rd night).

Moving on to updating you, the leagues have faced many substantial issues over the last 3 months. Through negotiation with members/ clubs/ Rileys and Independents’, several key issues were addressed and I am hopeful we are now at the other side of these problems.

We started the leagues 2 weeks ago and are having new applications from players and clubs continually. Whilst it’s far from the start that I had hoped for, it has at least begun. When talking to Club managers the focus is on the continuing development of recruiting new members weekly. Some clubs have people wishing to play but still need a few more to make it work. Where this is the case, I have been in direct contact with the club and Howard from Rileys, to see if we can help generate more interest.

The format we wished to start in had to be changed, however as the year progresses I hope to have a strong enough membership base to try out the original idea of Team play. This, and other ideas though will be at the sole discretion of our members, as it is their vote that counts.

One of the areas we have had to shelve until the start of year 2, is the County structure. I feel that it is more prudent at the moment to concentrate on the development of the leagues.

Sometimes it is hard to communicate all the events that go on behind the scenes and the co-ordination of clubs across the country is not easy. However I would like to take the opportunity to assure you that there is continual development of the leagues, week by week. It is not possible though to update everyone daily. Should you have a specific question or comment please feel free to contact me at bigtone@gb9leagues.info .

Regards

Tone

Hey BT,

Cheers for the update, im sure its not easy trying to sort everything out, especially after the carry on at the start.....
