What would make sense to me is if one of the events took a leaf out of the SWPL book. These guys run from late summer through to January (?) does this not solve the lack of dates issue? What else does everyone play in the winter months?
not sure how much you have played the northern circuit (sp), but we dont actualy have an off season so to speak.
the only month where we dont have much to play is december.

Ok i dont know how UK Jags would feel about this but, instead of going for the minority, go with the majority. Go with what will benefit the series and coincide the date with the Dartford 7's. The dartford 7's was made to represent the southern tournament scene, and have a place close by for the southeners to play. As i am aware uk jags, shockwave 3 and us are the only southeners who play the PGI's, yet we were the only team who played the dartford 7's.

So what i am saying is drop your original dates and coincide them with the d 7's ones. We are quite happy to drop d 7's to play a potentially better series ;)

Plus we get to shoot at some PA fools!! :D :D :p

Darren :cool:

OK correct me if wrong, but currently 15 teams in KOTH/MM and 15 teams in PGIs - I am sure last years MMs ran with about the same number of teams playing. Would make sense to me to run the two together. 2 x 7 man fields 2 x 5 man fields.

We ran last year with 4 fields at most events, surely the same can be done this year?

also cuts down site rentals by half :)

Yes a few teams play both, but you are never going to please all the people all the time, and if it gains more interest you could either expand to say 5 fields or then split the dates. Would rather see the two combine than watch throughout the year as teams drop out due to date clashes or lack of interest. Also more likely to attract trade stands etc along on a day if you have 30 teams there rather than 15!

Yes its more work on the day for you guys, but you only gotta do it once a month, and im sure we can all muck in and help out wherever possible :)

Just my 2ps worth anyways :)

I'm still not going to put my 2 pennith in, but just to clarify Famine, the UK Masters which incorporates KOTH had 26 teams at the last round, and i was quite impressed as we actually lost 8 regular teams because they felt it more important to see their mums as it was Mothering Sunday.

I am taking a keen interest in what is being said so that when SPC meet up at the weekend, it can be discussed.

:D :D :D


ps; DW i want your view, so you can tell me when i next see you!!:p

Not like you don't know who I am :D
Funny how everyone else can be 'respectfully silent' without feeling the need to post. So why bother at all?

If you've got something to say, then post it. If you haven't, then don't post at all. What do you want people to think when you post 'respectfully silent'? That you know something everyone else doesn't?

Think what they like, as you do and always have done
Apparently I have a reputation for being very opinionated and
you now know I have an opinion, but through my choice and respect for certain persons, I do not wish to voice it on here.
