Huge shoes to fill, after Jeff's efforts, so I'm happy to chair again this year (been about 11 years), but will not even try and compete with Jeff on the admin & extras :P

Mini League warning above.

Simple rules for 2019-20:


3. No cups or any side games, a straight out league battle. how is that keeping in spirit with the competition :?: So you have 1 chance claiming a prize out of about 100 people. Think ill give my tenner to the national lottery :roll: BORING

if u dont ask u dont get, simples :D

More than happy run a cup comp though. If 100 people enter this im sure at least 1 person (myself included) will be MORE THAN happy to run a cup comp. It will AT THE VERY LEAST keep the interest going and the banter brigade can have their cake and eat it all the way till may! :lol:

So Volunteer no.1 to run at least one cup comp

You didnt ask though did you, you criticized!

We have some very trustworthy members who are prepared to run leagues for the benefit of everyone here, people talk about the forum being quieter and a lack of interaction etc and even a divide of members and a so called 'clique'

Its comments like yours that put people off doing anything to benefit the forum.

I stepped back from involvement in running leagues for that very reason and my general interaction on here has dropped off also compared to what it was.

Personally if I was running the league then everyone would have been refunded by now but hopefully Edmo wont go that far.

Seriously you need to read back what you type before posting if you dont want to cause offence

Who cares on who said what ?

The point is there is going to be less players likely to play because the league has been 'dumbed' down for whatever reason. Hence the word BORING

Im offering to make this league more interesting/exciting like it has been every year that i and many other members have taken part

Now you can either accept my offer and keep the number of participants up (like years before0 or accept another members offer to run a cup comp to keep in tradition with the league or you run the risk of turning this into a bag of turd

Im saying what people are thinking like it or not

Number of signed up people to this league compared to last year is very low indeed. I wonder why :roll:

The whole point is not about what you are offering to do now it's about your approach in the first instance.

The elite league started out as just a league, we were fortunate enough that over the years Jeff took it to another level, all those extra things were a bonus but first and foremost it's about winning the league.

Regards numbers, it's still very early and they have only just released the web version of the league and other leagues I am in have very few joined as of yet, in fact this league may be the highest amount so far I've seen!

I actually couldn't even care less about the money involved if you win, I've never won the elite league and as sad as it may sound I enter to one day hopefully win it as to me it has a little bit of prestige about it on this forum. So in summary, yes the extra comps around it may drag in a few extra entries but I bet the majority on here aren't that fussed about those side games and still strive to do as best they can in the actual league.

I’m pretty sure we hit 100 entrants with no side games etc a few years back.

Just a straightforward league is fine by me. We don’t all have time to create side games etc

Keeping the format of this league to just a straightforward league looses its edge. People are attracted to this league because its not just 'another league' to enter

Its a fun league becasue of the many chances you have at winning, and not just a straight shoot out between potentially 100 people. Get a bad start in this league and thats it GAME OVER see you next year :twisted:

Said it before and ill say it again

More than happy to set up a cup game for this league to maintain interest. Ill even donate my own pennies if needs be

Oh and mad dog once you know the numbers a cup comp is less than 10 mins to set up and 10 mins to maintain IF you know what ur doing :wink:

Thanks for taking this on Edmo. It's really sad the way DreamTeam has faded over the last few years but at least this league will keep some interest. Can you let me know Bank Details cheers

Miles_T is number 33 to register interest, double carpet....could get some odds going once full entry confirmed. That would spice things up a bit. :|

I'm offline for a few days, so will round up on the admin, probably Monday evening. :)
