It had to happen at some stage . .
Ian Chapman v Sean Kelly is a cracking tie considering there's only four  |

It's as a result of the plate competition that so many people wanted at the AGM.
Blame them.
(For those of you who don't know who proposed, seconded and voted it in; you should have turned up, shouldn't you?!!! ) |

Its obvious Sean. Its to ensure as many choppers as possible from DIv 2 and below are culled before the real comp starts. :wink:

Bit strange alright, but that's what they wanted. That's what they've got.
I don't mind the idea of a plate, in principal, it is something realistic for players who are never going to compete at the business end of the KO comps.
I don't think the structure was thought through well enough by the proposers though, which is why we're in this pickle.
No blame attached to Mark in any way, he is simply running the comps exactly as the majority of the voting secretaries wanted.
Hopefully after this round is out of the way, people will appreciate that the system needs tinkering with, and get it in place for next season.
I can't help but see if you're gonna have an "Us and Them" situation, which is effectively what has been put in place by barring losing 1st division teams and players from any of the plates,
why don't you then have two seperate KO's running simultaneously.
One for the top 2 divisions.
And one for Divisons 3 to 5, like an LDV Vans trophy in football.

So Daniel, basically you want only good players in the singles and doubles, the immediate death of all first round losers, and no women in the league.

why are having a plate, the comp is to be croydon singles champion, so the plate will be for the champion of the 1st round losers, with top players barred, seems a bit hollow to me.
There are also a lot of div 1 players who don't have a realistic chance of winning the comp, can we have a plate for them as well.
If the lower division players want a better chance of winning a trophy, then win your divisional singles rankings, the plate idea is just stupid !!!
Just a different idea for next year, why not have the divisions play there own singles comps and then the winners and runners up or top 4 then play each other for the title
because i can |

Because the last AGM was full of Liberal Democrat voters with their 'fair dues for all policy' who seemed to forget that pool is actually a competitive game and that not everyone can win a trophy.  |
