Great weekend again, had a great first table that was full of craic, also had the eventual winner nick 2 to my left, Luton g was a class venue, half casino half nightclub which suits us fine.

Well played to the lads from gnf, hopefully see you all next time.  Thanks to all involved in putting these events together.

Well done to everyone who cashed and to the winning teams.  Would like to say a big thank you and well done to my boys from PL on surpassing both our previous points total and number of scorers.  

Was great to meet up with people I bump into online and lots of my fellow Leeds team and am now beginning to put faces to names and hopefully will remember who everyone is next time I see you!  A great weekend and very much enjoyed reading through the 2 threads this evening too, well done the guys on the laptops!

Top weekend. WP to all cashers and points scorers and a big thanks to Des and Tighty for another great tourney.

Always good to see old faces and meet a few new ones.

Also thanks to the Luton boys for letting me in on the "Home Game" on friday night - was fun

Firstly a massive thanks to Des and Rich for organising and running a top top event. Having never previously played for a team that has been in contention for this title, I got to see first hand how difficult it was for them to keep up with the exits and making sure the scoring for the team event was carried out correctly, so well done guys and massive thanks.

Was really pleased to play for and captain GNF, having been a member of the forum for 5 years now. I played for them in the first APAT team championship where we finished second last. We were not invited to the second one and with that in mind I opted to play for Blonde last year and was not involved in their medal finish last year. This year I was asked to skipper them so snapped up the offer. To then go on and win the thing was an awesome experience.

I was really proud of how well everyone played for the team, passing up a lot of spots that would help them individually to help preserve our tournament. Their support from the rail as the three of us ran deeper and deeper was much appreciated and we were euphoric once we sealed the win.

I would like to apologise to some players whose exits were met with a bit of antirailing celebration. I did feel a bit bad and apologised but anyone who has played with me before knows that I generally conduct myself properly and was only celebrating for my team.

I would also like to apolgise for continually rubbing down my team mate Iain Wilson who is a massive Man Utd fan and had to put up with me passing messages along the lines of "I know you are getting stuffed by the mighty city - but please keep focussed on the job in hand"

With the team winning the comp and City completely shredding Utd in the derby, it was a miracle that I made the final table, but that was the end of my run good. I was completely card dead and more importantly spot dead. With more patience I could have run further on the final but made a very poor move that was suitably punished by Ian T who went on to finish second (great run mate and ul on not winning)

Great to meet up with everyone again and am looking forward to defending the title next season (in blackpool please!!!)

[Santino67]

I second everything that Swinebag said, it was a cracking weekend and many thanks to everyone involved in organising and running it as well as all of the teams for the great spirit the game was played in.

It was the first APAT event I"ve played since season 2 I think, but certainly won"t be leaving it so long before the next one.
