Spike on the topic of teams folding,what about Entity?? As we heard you berating the Gallic pod thief running off with your pots during France vGB your co commentator clearly stated Entity were folding after Xmas finishing with a You heard it here first! Erm there was no denial As both Shock and Entity have dropped out of this year,s CPPS are folk putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 5 or what??
I havent been here for a few days and missed this.
Lol - someone actuall listened to Jay ford!!
I think you need to not pay too much attention to what Jay or anyone says in the tower, including me. We like to have some fun while up there. The pots comment was a joke about what happened to the pots we loaned them. So yes people are making 5 out of it. I wish I could have done that with players this year.
It is true we have had tough season with players not having the commitment that they said they had at the beginning of the year prior to us paying the years entry fee. We also had two very full squads but the commitment lack was a big problem.
Finance was a big problem with some of the players and I was funding a lot of the bills until a point where I said enough was enough and started calling in the debts, as well as stopping those that werent up to date from playing. Funny that's when people started to disappear.
As for dropping out the CPPS, this was again due to commitment of said players for one event - that then lost us our elite division spot.
Don't forget that both syd and I have been extremely busy this season. For the major part I was working at GI headquarters in Canada, which wasn't ideal.
As for next year Entity will be around. Most likely more than this to be honest. We are re-structuring slightly. Basically keeping the real "Team" players and losing the hanger ons and prima donna's.
If you look at the results this year they were mixed. Two mid Tavel and two last places in SPL. Disney was a disappointment but when you consider one of the guys hadn't picked up a marker for 2 years and one for a year, both with liitle training - what do you expect.
I can tell you know that the guys that are still here are the ones I call friends.
See ya on the field!
