Not forgetting to mention those poor teams who have never heard of the website and have no online members. They do not actually know there has been a 'trial' period in effect for 6 weeks and are still religously following the card number sequence....
The other week, Martin Pantony, aka committee member, had no idea what we were talking about when we tried to explain two players should not cross one anothers paths again in the second set. He had a full blown tantrum, spat out his dummy and very nearly burst into tears. Arthur tried to explain in 'Arthur language' to Martin what it was all about but he still wouldn't have it. In the end, we moved our player as you could sense the evening finishing prematurely unless somebody was adult about it all....
God help any of us when the league's officials don't know what is going on. And then we hear from Spud that Division 1 teams have now adopted their own rules re playing order.
Its a fucking shambles!

in response to the earlier debate on this thread....they had a 6th player arrive halfway thru frame 5....he was then put in at no.5 without the away team's consent....and played again at 7 before the player originally down at five played at all....
the bottom line ie that the home team made a unilateral decision to change the playing order AFTER the away team had signed the card...imo that is bang out of order.... |

You have lost me here. How can he arrive halfway through frame 5. He must of have been playing it?  |

and if they had a 6th player arrive, then why did they only write 4 players down in the first set, you said in your first post they only had 4 to start with! |
