So Neil loses job, has no money, can't pay betd and can't pay debt's, team disbands cos don't get paid. That's not a team, that's mercenaries! Good luck in whatever league you play.
Maybe if Neil had stuck with his team that gained him promotion over the seasons the Legends would be "Legendary" and without the promise of payments and poaching the Better halfs "Better!" And probably a ironically better contention for the title.
Are you not entertained?? |

The team has 4 players that's why! No Leon pope or no billy that's why it folded hope that clears it up I ain't playing all season with 4! I ain't aloud to play for better halfs as I am not allowed to play pool in Croydon coz my team folded! That's the *******rule that stops a pool players playing in a pool league.

With regards to the bets Neil had
Micky Samuels and myself had 2 bets ,1 for £100 each with Neil and another£50 with 1of Neils teammates each.
We told each other a few weeks back that we needed to win this bet as we couldn't see us getting paid if we won the bet but we would have paid up straight away if we had lost even though times are tough for us as well
I honestly feel some sympathy for Neil but put yourselves in our shoes if Neil had won the bet come next week he would have been all over us like a rash for the money
That's the bottom line.
That's our view on the subject I'm sure the prop will have there own views on the subject
summer champs 2008
div 1 individual winner 2008
and knockout cup winners 2008
croydon singles league iv prem winner
plus league cup winners 2011,2012.2014
plus ko cup plate winners 2011 summer doubles winners 2010winter league champs 2017

The Better Halfs are the quietest team on this site this season but yet I see their name mentioned quite a bit, although I do understand why.
There has been much talk throughout this season that The Better Halfs and The Legends had joined forces or operating side by side to try and combat the top teams and hence why a certain individual was gutsy enough to take on all these wagers. This is utter rubbish and has never been the case. Infact he laughed in my face with The Better Halfs ex team mates behind him and took on a bet with me that we will be relegated. We're not in the relegation zone and yet another bet that's not going to be paid I think, but certainly not going to be forgotten either.
On to bigger issues now. I'm sure we're all aware that are League is decreasing in size which is no fault of anyone other than the enviornment and we should all do our best to keep it as fruitful and pleasant as possible. Croydon is the best League I've played for and it is well managed by the League Secretary and it's committee. Even the fees have been brought down in order to keep what we have and hopefully introduce new teams in too.
It's a sad day when certain people do what they want which can be disruptive and causes the league and those teams in it and probably also the sponsors to suffer as a result.
I'm old school and taught to believe that the captain is the last to jump. I can't comment on The Prop because I don't know what went on there But I certainly can comment on The Legends and have it from good source that their Secretary was the first to jump ship and will not be showing. I wonder why !!!!!
With regard to the summer league ahead of us, I can only imagine how these teams dropping out will affect everyone including the headache Mark Halsey must have.
I don't believe that the Secretary of the Legends who chooses to pull the team out of the summer due to his own personal reasons has the right to dictate the future of his team mates within the League thus having them all suspended for this summer season. I am told that he will not be reinstating the team by the said date.
He leaves behind some of the quality players of our League whom have been with us all for years and have never been suspended from any League and above all produce some great competitive pool.
It will be a great loss to us all to loose these players to another League and thus find our League decreased further. I know they don't really want to go but have no choice because of their love to continuously play the game.
I personally think that rather than have this problem resolve via this Website, that an emergency meeting should be called to discuss it in detail before the season starts and of course all Secretaries be invited to cast a vote whereby majority wins.
Sorry to have dragged this on a bit Guys but what do you think or shall we just let another team disappear ? Excluding the Secretary of course !!!! |

Extraordinary meetings are called when the rules/constitution does not cover a matter in hand. This matter in hand is clearly covered so there is no basis for any such meeting to be called. Certain members crucified this committee last year for "Interpretating" a rule which was aleady clear cut and it was at this meeting that it was clarified that if any matters are clearly covered by rules that the membership democratically have voted over the years then these rules will apply until any are changed through the process that has also been voted in.
People cannot have it both ways when it suits otherwise we will be opening the door for extraordinary meetings to be called at will. |

Mark,I know rules are rules but banning players from playing when it's not there own faults is a bit harsh. Maybe u could have a meetin with your committee and address this rule. Don't think there needs to be an egm as I'm sure common sense will prevail,but this rule does need to be looked at. Especially as the season hasn't even started yet. Don't bite me head off Mr H,just sayin. |

I am not disagreing with you kermy, but i think what Mark is saying is even if he wanted to use common sense & allow the suspended/banned players to sign for someone else, he isn't allowed to even if he thought that was the right thing to do.
If a rule exists & is in black & white then it was decided at a previous meeting that no committee member had the right to over rule it.
Its not really Mark's decision to make, i beleive you would have to go through some kind of process to get the rule changed, not a process of trying to get the existing rule overlooked for this particular moment & situation.

Ricky, there is nothing this committee can do so there is no need for us to meet. The season may well have not started but everything is set up and has been furbished and with the late withdrawal of yourselves and Legends this has resulted in 2 BYES in Div.1 so hence all other teams will have 4 weeks without games. If I recall when this was voted in ........ and it was years ago when Transfers first came in ....... one of the main arguments re players having freedom of movement was that players of withdrawn or suspended teams would lose that right as it was felt that if it was easy to move then players would not have the incentive to hold it together. Its obvious that this has not applied for the summer but its been a few years since the rules have been and I suppose that there is always a first time for everything. September will be the next opportunity to discuss this at the next AGM. |

If you or the legends were to re-register then any transfers from either team would have to result in a player being registered to replace the player leaving due to the size of your squads and not as you have stated. |

Call me Baldrick, but i have a cunning plan.
If you both re-register your teams & then de-register a player from one team who wants to play & replace him with a registered player from the other team who doesn't want to play & vice versa, eventually you will have one team with all players who want to play & one team with all players who don't want to play. You then disband the team of players who don't want to play & carry on with the team of players that does.
Call yourself the prop ends or confused.com
Simples (Thats compare the market though isn't it !!)
