you had the chance to bury us however the "boy wonder" and alex lost their arses as you said giving us chances. didn't see Scotts frame but by the sounds of it he was good, Arthur finished brilliantly, Ansell finished excellently, dippy v Boy wonder had errors and barry lost his bottle. Keith played a good DF on the black to make it difficult for james but very nearly threw away the whole match after missing a dolly black to clinch it. James was left a tough pot for the coney to win but missed and the rest is history.
bada bing until next time
Come on Matt, you know I am no good over 1 frame!
As for the 'Farley boy wonder', he is not the finished article yet. Playing in your first Eden/Coney match is never easy regardless of your experience because there is SO much at stake. Believe it or not loosing last night will probably do him a favour. He was bang up for the match so that says alot about his desire. He is learning all the time and needs to read the game better plus produce a B game when he is under the kosh. Its not all about potting balls he needs to grind out a few wins. Playing in Div 1 against better players who don't roll over will improve him and he deserves to be there.
As for Coneycueist, first shot he rushed all night was the long red for glory. Blocking the pocket early doors over Keith's yellow was negative and as soon as James played that shot it cost him the frame when he looked odds on to win.
Great match though, another classic at the Elmer.

Had to get a little dig in there Alex as I am now 3-1 up against you in league pool.
3-2 down is vs matches against the Eden
2-0 up in the the battle to finish highest in the league.
1 league match ever left and we are hoping for a knock out cup match or league cup match (if we make it) to have another shot at vengeance.
At this stage the coney are looking more likely than not to fold at the end of the season with some recent revelations so make no bones about it we must win the rematch which I am sure will be another fun filled evening.
Once again congrats and there was even talk on the back of the win of the Eden not folding after all....you are a fickle bunch!

tables (a bit of guess work with byes) are average results figured out before bonus points for example we have had 3 x 5-2 results, 1 x 6-1 loss, 1 x 4-3 loss 19 points before bonus points after 5 games. Does that mean our next game v drillers we will get (3.8) 4 points and thus 2 bonus points?

Well played to the Eden last night. A thoroughly deserved victory.
Focussing on the positives: Truey was a class act on 1, he showed tremendous strength of character and composure to B&D, particularly after building up the game so much. Both Matt's for the Coney: excellent pool under pressure.
But the night belonged to one person for me: Keith Barnetson. Played pressure pool with a smile on his face as ever. Top guy, great example to others.
Personally I let the team down. I was on 7 to do a job and didn't do it. I should have been more positive early on, lost the thread of the tactics towards the middle of the frame and Keith played tactically excellently to turn a losing position into a winning one. Presented with a life line I then missed a long pot I should have potted.
Anyway, well played to the Eden. No excuses, the better side one won on the night. Looking forward to the rematch.

At the point your match against the Drillers is played, you get your average frame score rounded up or down (depending on whether over or under 0.50.) and then two bonus points if you have averaged 4 or more, and your average frame score if it is less. ie we had 21 frame wins in 4 games, which equates to 5.25, rounded down to 5 add 2 =7

Think you only get 5-2 for last night, didn't think bonus points came into it on average wins. |

bonus points have to come in to it if other teams have been awarded them vs the drillers |

Rule 49 states that if a team withdraws from the league:a) All match results will stand up until that date. All remaining teams having unplayed fixtures against that team will receive their own average score. c) These average scores will be rounded up or down to a whole figure on the basis that 0.49 and less will be rounded down and 0.50 and above will be rounded up(i.e:a 3.51 average would be deemed as a 4-0 win). d)The 2 point win bonus in a league match will be added where applicable.e)If the occurrence happens during the league programme then all match averages will be calculated on the corresponding fixture date.

Why are you so consistently sh*t in the league Alex? and don't give me the one frame format sh*t cos it is the same for everyone. I am sure when we played you in about game 9 of our first season in div one that win you got that night was your first of the season.
Shocking really for someone who prides themselves on "Eden till I die" and being a pressure player etc but you cannot perform for your team?!
and yes I know you beat me over the long format |

I think that means we need one point next week against the holders of the Beckenham ashes to get a 4-3 win the following week against the Drillers and two bonus points. |

Shaggy,if you'd like to check previous posts,I think you'll find it was the Power who mentioned that the Dead Beer Beagles would probably be in Suzies. I personally don't give a monkeys where you all are. As for myself,I decided to stay in and watch my beloved Arsenal. I wasn't confident that the Pawleyne would show the Arsenal game as,on previous visits, there has been some bias towards northern teams !! God knows why !!! |

I've performed for my team for 20 years on and off the table. The last 9 of those years travelling 120 miles for one frame of lottery pool. So my teammates normally let me off when I loose!
Last night was poor though, it was too easy and I blew it. Story of my season, been getting in winning positions and fluffing the last ball or the black. Week before had 2 shots on the black and tried to dribble it over the bag and failed to hit a cushion!! I nearly got lynched by Truey!
Never been consistent enough over 1 frame format especially in Div 1 and in the end I notch up 50% or there abouts over the course of the season and to be honest I know that I a'int much better than that anyway.
