The turning point was when the ringer (  ) rattled the black at 3-3. From that point on the confindence grew and we won 5 in a row. |

Nice team and a good laugh, didnt live up to there reputation.
Well done to the cieran for winning the hotshots and to the portland, look forward tg the food and short walk next season, i heard the cricketers were 3-0 down and 4-1 down which is probably why they are so quiet!

Well played to the Uni B. A very pleasant evening.
Made a nice change, after 17 straight wins, for a team to come up with somebody to beat me.
Strangely queit in here today?..........

we were indeed 4-0 down, and fought back to 4-3. We then went 5-3 down, but for the second week in a row we won the last four to win 7-5... Unfortunately it wasn't enough for us unless the league end up promoting three teams (the gap from CSC(X) leaving the prem has to be filled and it'd make sense to promote an extra team from each division...)
Anyway, well done to the Portland for a very good win, and well done again to the Rock... On the whole it's been a very enjoybale season and I hope we've proved a few people wrong...After being tipped to struggle in this division we've ended up joint second on points (we have more wins, but less frames) and with 2 of the top 5 hotshots...
PS. Well done again to Cieran - at least one cricketers player is getting a trophy this season!

I know- I saw that and had to double-check the rules, but he's wrong and you are right unfortunately... As I said, all I can hope is that they promote both of us... If only 1 team gets relegated from the prem, division 1 will need an extra team...  |

Yeah, that would entirely depend on who it is... If some CSC(X) players form a new team I'm sure they'd be put in a high division, but surely it'd depend on who any team team is...
I know Lefty is getting a new team together, but surely he'll need a lot of good players with him if they're going to be put into div 1...
Speaking of new teams, we're looking for a t least one new player next year as we have 5 decent players already signed up, but could do with at least one more decent player...

Sounds like you almost had a great escape but it was always going to be hard with the portland finishing so strongly rufus and i think you have atleast proved you are the most suitable team to take an extra spot in division one should it occur.

Great comeback by us boys last night but we really need to improve in the first half if to stop the pressure we put on ourselves.
Strange night after the buzz of snatching a win from the jaws of defeat to hear Portland win was a bit frustrating but i've still really enjoyed the season and its been a good laugh with most teams although i think golden hind last night were a bit out of order last night on a couple of occasions but i won't go into that.

And for our division, in the battle for second place:
Portland arms: 24pts, +32frames, 11 wins
Cricketers: 24pts, +20frames, 12 wins
As I said, well done to the Portland - we did all we could in the last couple of weeks, but we threw it away in February and suffered from a lack of strength in depth...

A very good match against the PA. All their players played very well with some outstanding performances, and the uni didn't play bad either. A good season and I look forward to next year if I still play for the Uni. Out of interest were Uni-B moved down to make room for CSC X or did we get demoted? If so then it would be fair to put Uni-B back up to where they were, although to win Div 2 convincingly (Rock style) would be nice.

Not necessarily so Monkey, I have heard on very good authority that this might not be the case. So please don't anyone get their hopes up of a possible 3rd promotion spot coming from the Rathmore C direction |
