Title: Season 4 League 1 Round 10 - our last chance saloon!
Post by: technolog on July 03, 2010, 11:41:36 AM
The last round of the league is this Sunday (4th July) at 8pm on Betfair. It was supposed to be next week but was changed to avoid a clash with the World Cup final.

We are in 4th place, 3 points adrift of Kent with just the top 3 teams getting promoted.

It"s a long shot (to say the least!) but we CAN still get promotion. Quite simply, we have to get the 3 points for the win and Kent need to fail to score. Due to our greater number of wins (team points not individual) we would go up. We know we CAN win, we"ve managed 2 victories already this season.

I know quite a few stalwarts of the team have said that they don"t want to continue to play and I can understand their feelings. However can I ask you to reconsider? We have one match left. Please come and give it one last go.

With everything settled in Division 3 bar the last promotion spot, numbers are likely to be down a little. Kent only had one player last week (admittedly they"re likely to have one or two more this week), if we can muster 6 or more players, we"ll have a small but significant chance of taking the win and sneaking into the dizzy heights of Division 2.

One last push - COME ON!

Half an hour to go and we only have 4 of the 24 runners (23 really as max4matt is a Birmingham player who"s lost her way). 10 Luton, 6 Sunderland, 4 Notts, 2 Kent, 1 Swansea.

So it"s going to be tough (no kidding?!) but Sunderland have proved that you can win with just a handful of players. All we have to do is play well and hope we get our overdue share of luck.

Good luck all and thanks for playing.

So, final tally 29 players or which 14 Luton, 7 Sunderland, 5 Notts, 2 Kent and 1 Swansea.

Play your own game, try not to tustle with our own players unless it"s unavoidable.

I think we need to get at least 4 to the final table to win this.

Poor old Stuart gets disconnected and immediately on his return runs a set into a staight and is our first casualty in 28th :(

Bainn got a tad lucky when he rivered a 9 for a set against Katos"s AA. But that"s the kind of luck we"re going to need!

Give that man a ginger nut!

No problem Stewart - ignore Leigh (he"s from down south you know?) - just hope you can gird your loins to play the next league starting in August!

1st break and we have 3 left, Kent only have 1. To get the win from here I think we"ve got to all finish in the top 5, preferably with one of us winning it!

How hard can it be?

With Shoz gone in 16th I think Bainn and I pretty much need to finish 1st & 2nd. If Nemissis could finish 3rd that would help!

Well Bainn and I have made the FT - could really use the next 2 or 3 out being Luton.

I"d like to announce that Bainn and I will be tying the Nott. Reception at DTD, wedding breakfast to consist of ginger nuts and coffee, the drink of champions!

Sorry Helen, it"s destiny!

Thanks fellas and thanks for your efforts. Every point we scored was vital and you pair scored a shed load!

Have to say though, Bainn was an absolute wrecking ball at the later stages of the final table.

Let"s do it all again in Division 2! But perhaps not leaving it quite so late eh?!
