So when does the plate competition come into effect anyway?
If it's only for first round losers, and does not include first division players, why is it not being played alongside the second round?
Because second round losers also get put into the plate!
So you could lose in the first round, your opponent gets beat in the second, and you get drawn against him in the plate....: |

Never mind the tea, apparently the Guinness sales on that night were an all time low. They'd even ordered in a couple of extra barrels just in case, as they hadn't realised Statto wasn't going to make it.

can some one help me work this out. some how we have ended up with 35pairs and 68singles matches in the second round of theses
knock-out competitions. these numbers just don't workout right surely there should be 32 and 64matches or some one will get a bye in the rounds to come.the pre-lim round should have sorted this out. |

The 34 Div 1 entrants should have been given a bye to 1st round along with whatever number of players from the other divisions would have been needed to make it up to 64 or 128. Maybe the prelim winners got a bye to the next round?
Whose great idea was this? |

I believe the majority of Secretaries voting this in were from the Division 2 and below. Maybe they can explain. |

Whether I got this right or wrong remains to be seen, but its a logistic nightmare for all comps at the mo with the terms and conditons of the plate comps. I have gone along with what was voted in but the stumbling block is the interpretation of whether the preliminary is seen as the actual 1st round. All comps will have to run their course as it is this season and it will pan out to 128's, 64's, 32's etc etc etc. What I would like to see is no prelim and all entrants entered into the 1st round ie: taking the numbers from the Singles this year :-
209 total entries broke down to read 62 divisions 1, 147 others ... 61 of the 147 to play Div.1 - 86 others to play themselves (43 v 43) and 47 BYES entered to show 23 v 23 (Leaving 23 to be entered into the 2nd Round and the 1 remaining BYE to be the remaining 1st Div player fixture. As I said earlier the only stumbling block is the fact that 1st Div Players at the mo are not entered into the 1st Round. Chew it over, give it some thought and let me know your opinions. |

I'm just a democratically elected official of this League and will always undertake the directions outlined within our general meetings .... until something is tried you never know of any problems at the time that things are voted in but can you imagine the nightmare of trying to also police and undertake the fact that players with 1st division experience over the last 5 years would not be eligible for the plate comps either as first proposed .... ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE ... so hence my concerns over this last August.

if you have total of 209 players (62 first div.+147 lower div.)
how about this you could have had a first round with all players 209+47 byes =256off going into the draw which makes 128 first round games in total.with all 62 first div. players drawing lower div players.
Orthe only other way i can see is, if the first div. players must have a bye then you have a prelim round of 30 players from the lower div .leaving 117 off plus the 15 prelim winners =132off in the first round =66winners +the 62 first div. players=128off to play in the next round. |

So is the plate comp to run off the 15 losers in the prelim or are they added to the losers in the 2nd round because if the later is so .... That is what I'm doing at the moment. Your first scenario is near on exactly what I stated originally (other than the fact that Div.1 players are not entered until Round 3). I think that you are on the right lines but the fact remains that everyone should be entered into the 1st round with BYE's entered accordingly so tat the 2nd Round for both comps will run similtaneous with the same numbers in each... Thanks for your input.
