Actually ko cup maybe keep to 11 as givs the underdogs more ova chance but guys the game as changed massively the old best ov 7 woz good for the old rules but world rules is ment to b an attacking game which means more people lose frames by bein dished or only avin the 1shot,at least the 15frames let's almost every1 av 2games or maybe 3 depending on squad size...Iv also played in red n rei league a few times n they also finish early n get all 15 frames in so it should not b a problem especially if lower divisions remember to play DFs rather than tip tap around....each division should vote on there own division so at least div1 keeps up with the times...god knows y but Croydon as always ad to dragged kickin n screaming to simply keep up with most leagues...try it summer league n re vote for winter league simples n it
Well said Tony that's bang on! 15 frames is in favour of most so far wits wrong with giving it 1 try!!!!
jackos got it bang on.. get voting people..
WHY SO SERIOUS?
I'm not so sure bout this one , I two have played in a 15 frame league with a very strong team , time is not a iusse I will say that people tend to go for it more knowing there are so many frames to be played , my only worry would be the smaller teams getting spanked week in week out , my old team used to regularly win 13.2 , 14.1 , and u know what it gets soooooo boring , I think the longer format will only suit the stronger teams , rich get richer poorer get poorer if u like , have to consider the leauge is getting smaller and smaller 5 years ago great idea but now I'm not sure
negativity querty is that what you call it? i call it having an opinion...and for your wisdom i have played in a 15 frame format and found it quite boring especially as mentioned in other posts where you get a better team v a poor team it can get tedious. also when playing in div 1 in croydon rarely did we finish before 10.15 playing 10 frames and thats playing for a very attack minded team so add another 5 on top of that its not rocket science to work out your have later finishes especially in the lower divisions who will be more affected if this happens. when a vote is taken on this its only fair all secratarys from all divisions have there say and not as jacko hinted have div 1 having a seperate vote for there own division. the most important issue here is the league on a whole and whats best for that, so lets just have a vote and see what happens at least after that teams will have a choice as to what they want to do.
