I just voted for 7 frames and 98% sure of voting for it on thursday, i;ve tried to look at all the angles, all the pro's and con's and in the end i've looked as it as this- we as secretarys should not be voting on this for a personel basis but to a better cause as in the league itself,there's been alot of changes in the last couple of years to our pool league, alot beneficiary to the player that want's to get on and improve his or her carear in pool played, from a personel point of view it's given people opportunities whov'e wanted it but the fact i feel is that were trying to do an asolf bolton (probably the wrong spelling), we know that we've got the 200 metre's and we're going to destroy the 100 and that's great but as a pool league we're not world class yet... i feel that we need to do another season of 7 frames, the fact is most people feel the winter league is the one to win, the one you put all your effort in to win,, it's the big one,,,,the games will get more intense and longer, the times finishing at night will be later than the summer league (I'm looking throughout the league) and as a league we should be looking at this. I would like to see one day soon the format of 10 frames or more, I will propose at least the inclusion of a 60 second rule next summer with the 10 frames of some format and then take what we've learn't from that into the winter and hopefully try it out next winter and promote our league but I feel if we junp to fast with this, the league's going to lose out as a whole, and now as i'm running out of strongbow in my bloodstream i'm going to bed...luck
