TBH I have no idea mate.

As far as I know, it didnt occur to Scutty (or me) that teams would drop out, as Manc Union have gone and Campaign united with Jags there are theorectically 2 'spare' spots.

Whether they are filled or not, I wouldnt like to comment, but if it was up to me (and it isnt) i would invite the Stealers and another team in to take their place.

The problem with giving it to the next placed team in a regional division is that there will be 4 contenders, and how do you prioritise one over the other without placing a higher value on one league over another. The leagues are equal, and this would prove difficult.

Exactly thanks Sam i didnt want to say it in case of bias. I have been trying to contact Scutty for months but no Joy. Do you know how i can get hold of him?

:D
 
I know...but again the great "rumour mill" has it that the pro tour will go ahead.

Just it's getting more and more difficult to plan the season!

We want to give our players all the dates they are needed to play.

On top of this...they played events to get the promotion to play ProTour and now no one knows anything or can say for deff. what is going to happen.




WE NEED AN OFFICAL STATEMENT!
 

yatesy

kiss my face
If there are any spare spots in the pro tour, and the arguement is which team from which league gets a spot, then why not have a playoff between the teams eligble for the spot i.e. the people who finished 2nd in mm, bullys etc all play each other the overall winner gets in the pro tour (if it even goes ahead)

This would also ensure the best team (if they played the pro tour format 7 man best of 3) went in, which is surely what the pro tour wants

I'm sure alot of people will say there are better teams that could fill the spot, there probably are, but surely you can only get on the pro tour through the UK tourney scene, so as not to make a mockery of the system after all wasn't one of the main ideas of the pro tour qualification system to promote the UK tourney scene getting more teams to play domestic events.
