Correct. You're just a prat. Give my mate Matt some slack and I may let you in. Lol gaz you cant do one rule for one and one for another hence il drop out. I have to agree with Bobhall here, the organiser needs to either stick to initially taking entries from Brighton League players only (as was originally stated) or to allow other players to go straight on the entry list now.... the simple fact is that at the moment some "non-Brighton" players have been told that they must go on the reserve list while others have been allowed entry already. Sadly, offensive comments by certain individuals do not help the situation....

I have removed Ros from the list, I will put her back in the list (and others that have expressed an interest) when I (as the organiser) have decided that everyone has had ample opportunity to enter

Additionally is ros not playing Brighton summer league? My mate Matt is trying his best but the usual suspects always pipe up

I'm my eyes let her play Joe i would of played summer league so thats not fair and also if she is signed up then thats two league rules being broken i support all competitions so why should i be put on reserve list maybe its because i could be classed as a toughed opponent

I was asked to ensure, this year, that first shout for the Brighton Off the Spot was given to Brighton players, this I have done and made a judgement call that because Ros had played Summer League last year and was playing this year I would include her. Some people agree with that decision some don't, pretty much like bar billiards life in general. Nothing personal for or against anyone just my call. Those that have asked to play that I haven't considered Brighton players, Kyle Ingram and Bob Hall I have put on a "reserve" list that I was planning to use when every opportunity had been given to said Brighton players to enter. Bob, I consider everyone a tough opponent, but I have definitely erred on this occasion because I have put you on the reserve list when the competition contains those not so tough opponents in Millward, Senior, Ingram, Lelliott etc

Kev went to the vet once before: the vet looked him over thoroughly and then said "I'm sorry but I'm going to have to put him down". When asked why, the vet said "'cos he's too fecking heavy !"

Been away and just seen this and it always amazes me when someone is taking the time and effort to arrange something, there are always people willing to shoot them down and stir up trouble, Matt was asked to give Brighton players the chance to enter first and form a reserve list to implement the numbers if required.
This is a fun day, and I for one feel a bitter taste in the mouth when it should be about bar billiards and not a slagging match, either intentionally or misunderstood banter.
I think it is a shame you have withdrawn Bob as you would enhance the competition and Matt would have used his judgement as to when to implement the reserve list in the correct order.
Thank yo Matt for organising the Off the Spot and the Masters keep up the good work. TJ
