I'd change it so people who make posts on here late at night (probably when drunk) can't delete them the next day. wrongwrong

I'd like to see a rule similar to the 'miss rule' in snooker, either having the option of putting your opponent back in to play or a free ball after every foul. Well, anything that stops people gaining an advantage by stepping outside of the rules for a shot. After your opponent fouls you shouldn't be returning to the table and thinking 'I'm still censored here.

Hmmm.. But that totally defeats the object of the deliberate foul rule Spence, you big gay bear.

If you're fcuked with 2 shots, then you should have thought ahead and played accordingly. These rules are can be tactically genius, which is why they are a great leveller for people who aren't so good at potting but have the brain to think a few shots ahead.

Of course, if you can't pot and are a little simple (Not naming anyone, Spencer Barnes . . ) then you deserve to return to the table with two shots and be fcuked!!

Venues that don't sell proper beer (as opposed to poxy lager) should be deemed completely inappropriate to host league or cup games, and a 0-10 walkover given to the visiting team until they start serving proper beer on tap.

Venues that have taps for proper beer that fail to actually serve said beer, or serve said beer in a manner that can only be described as cloudy muck, tasting like flat washing up liquid, should be suspended from hosting games, and teams based in such establishments should be moved to Rileys on Imperial Way until their landlord 'sorts it out'.

I resent spending my hard earned wedge on gnats' piss and or to line the pockets of landlords/management who cannot even begin to manage the basic principles for keeping, maintaining and serving proper ale.

Until these rules are brought in, I'm just going to keep driving to away venues and paying through the nose for mixers and cordials, making the landlords/management even more money and providing plenty of disincentive for them to not bother with changing anything at all whilst they rake in the profits from watered down over-priced limonades.

So there!

Definetly bring in the time limit rule whether it is a minute or 90 seconds the games will go quicker and some venues are absoulotely appaling some tables need to be checked by officators of the CDPL as it is a disgrace to the game to play on table that is not worthy

FARLEY FARLEY !!!!!!! best tables better than suzzzzzzzys

i do think tables should have to come up to scratch... trouble is you'd end up with hardly any venues and the whole league would probably be played at suzy q's...!!!
