Would it be correct to assume that the wizards refusal to play the match may now be deemed as a forfeit n as such the automatic relegation we were facing will now actually be given to them? n we would get an 9.2 or 11.0 win n should martin n chris be removed from the committee for misconduct n unsporting behaviour....OMG the irony is killing me,they may of actually relegated themselves  ,my ribs hurt |

No...I think you will find I told all u lot that Andy lol.....but no one would go on my word though 8-/ so now that the wizards were -1 bang out of order for claiming....2 that they were wrong about the times.even though they were adiment that it was after 8.45 so 3 I take it that the wizards will now be relegated for claiming a game and not playing the game as it should of been played and claimed through illegal activity.can any one clarify this.because the wizards are so fixed at playing by the rules that they will be happy to stick by them and be relegated?????

After a lot of thought, I've reconsidered my position and I won't stop playing in Croydon League.......... I'm realising that it is the minority within the league who want to claim games rather than play, and it would be wrong to stop playing because of the minority........ The majority of individuals within the league understand when teams are struggling to get players to venues and make allowances, because it is the sporting thing to do...... What upsets me most is when individuals are looking to claim frames as soon as you walk in the venue, even when they know there are players on their way, and that's much worse an attitude than someone turning up late...... Having said that, there have been some very good attitudes from opposing teams and captains/secretaries this year...... My view is that frames should only be claimed as a last resort, and the general league rules should be used as a guide to support a sporting approach, rather than taking everything as an absolute line in the sand....... The only rules that should never ever be compromised are the playing rules........ Last Tuesday, The Wizards refused to play the match, knowing that we had sufficient players coming, but chose to ignore that fact and try to apply a general rule related to attendance to time, basically not only to nick frames, but also claim the match. That behaviour was frankly not sporting in my opinion, so what's the ruling on that ?

I could be wrong, but when the summer league was originally started it was called the gentlemen summer league, with a mind to fair play more so than the winter league.

Rematch ?
Wizards 3 - 8 193's
Wizards were well within their rights to claim the first 3 frames, but not the match
So 193's would be within their rights to claim the remaining 8 frames.
Rules is rules is rules is rules.
Live by the sword...............
I am joking by the way, rematch is the best solution.
(Claim the 8 frames lads)
I would rather be playing golf |

Rite read the lot ill add my penny's worth
Of Andy told Chris he was running late and Chris was sweet with this and they had 3 there by 8.45 why on earth is a game being claimed shocking! It happend to the better halfs by a team that I don't want to name but similar circumstances we was running late they was made aware but decided to claim 3-0 in a cup tie first to 5 I personally wud rather eat wood and stick pins in my eyes than claim frames/game it's a pool night people have life's and reasons yes we all are competitive and all wanna win but to claim walk overs is a liberty having said that Mr Jackson your always late mate games start at 8.15 you do it week in and week out its simple get there on time san everybody else does I no u fin work at reasonable times so there only so many excuses you can use.... I don't agree with claiming stuff and never will but you don't help yourself sometimes mate.

Its good you have had a re-think Graham as I do understand your frustrations and what you have said here in lamens terms is more or less right. The ruling that everyone is waiting for to resolve this will be determined on Wednesday night at a committee meeting (with Chris & Martin obviously being abstained) with representatives from both The Wizards & Frames 193's being in attendance. |

I think its a bit of a poor show that everyone is on here airing their opinions (which they are entitled to do) other than the two committee members that seemed to have caused all of this. Seem to be hiding if you ask me.
WHY SO SERIOUS? |

Just to let everyone know the committee have overturned the wizards 11.0 walk over win n given us a 9.2 win as the wizards were entitled to claim the first two frames but then forfeited the match by refusing to play us there after... I'm happy with the outcome n if our team agrees maybe actually play the match now? |

So jacko arrived at the club 8.43 but he certainly wouldn't have made it up the stairs. Put his eye drops in. Got his cue out and stretched his tennis elbow ready for a coin toss at 8.45 |
