PRO-TOUR Press Release

[fordanaldino]

arnt just manc playing for manc union anyway?

 

[McD]

no manc unnion will pretty much be scratch i think kellys will be playing for kellys and the rest for there own teams, they wont have anny of our players

 

[Beaker]

Plus Chris Ed and Jono from Shock are Manc U too aren't they?

Might they not run short?

 

[Kevin]

unfortunatley all the feeder series' have started,
so getting into the group for next year is going to be impossible if you arent already in them.

if teams dont get relegated at the end of this year, why would they put their strongest team into this and not the pa ?
they are still gauranteed a spot and they can win cash at the pa and get the kudos for being in the pro league and winning the pa.

I rekcon commander "D" and his boys should be in the pro leauge,
They got a good squad and i belive they will be able to compete with us at the highest level!!

I dont think Manc Union will have the players( i know they got a HUGE roster but most of them will be playin for their own teams) as most of the team was made up of Kelly players

Just my 2pennys worth

 

[kris]

damn right
so manchester have spent the year proving they are 'above' most teams in the uk!
It would be disappointing to find one of the uk's top teams hasn't got in just because of politics!

as for attitude??
What frekin attitude!!! you got a frekin problem come round here and we can chat , frekin attitude

for any cyber geeks thats a joke....

 

[fordanaldino]

why dont you guys just sign onto the manc union roster and then you can play?

What I fear is more likely to happen is the teams that qualify from local tourneys will be completely outclassed by the teams already on the list. Resulting in games with predictable outcomes.

I think this is all going to depend on the sort of team you are talking about. If a team qualifies having played a wide variety of events and training hard, on top of playing the local tourneys then I think they may stand a chance.

However I can see what you are saying, there is a real possibility that by concentrating the best teams together a massive talent gulf could open up, effectlively turning the pro tour into a closed league like the NXL.

Still think its a good idea, and would love a crack at it!!!!

NXL hasn't been detrimental to the standard of paintball. Do you think Dynasty would lose every event if they played NXL, RL are doing pretty well and didn't play NXL until this year.

A closed league is not a bad thing in itself as long as there are sufficient good teams to maintain competition elsewhere

from what UK series can teams get promoted to into the pro tour?
