I wasn't going to launch this until we have a s/d but I see my fellow-Sheffielder has started one for the Lucky Pins and I'm not going to lag behind a blade ( Boo Hiss ).
Obviously we need to be sure we have a full team. I thought we had a nice settled and very reliable 8 last time. As most of you will know however Norfolk has gone awol for over 6 weeks now,which in his case I fear means something is wrong. The other problem which has cropped up is that a certain gentleman who caused some havoc in the penultimate contest has announced his intention to return ( as captain no less
). I am aware that undecided is not inclined to block him,a decision which I support partly on principle,partly because I think it would cause even more problems.
That said I think we have 5 definites whether you know who plays,for another team obviously,or not.
Lampus
hoof hearted
smirnofftotherescue
GLASGOWCALLING
salmon spray.
My understanding is that madhatters will play as well albeit under duress. DIFERENT GRAVY 12 seemed to indicate he wouldn't under what have become current circumstances. I hope he will change his mind.
I'm inclined to give both him and Norfolk untill we get an actual s/d. If one or neither of them hasn't said yes I have ONE new recruit lined up (someone well known to at least 3 of you from some years back ) but would need to find another.
Can you all sign in on here please just so I am sure where we stand.
COME ON THE GLORIOUS HUMBUGS !

I assume hoof hearted is playing but would appreciate it if he could sign in again ( I know I've become
an old fusspot )
I need to know where madhatters and DIFERENT GRAVY stand now we think we know CagliariG will be playing.
And if Norfolk is out there let us know.

OK DG. I appreciate you letting me know. Sorry to see you go as you were a perfectly fine member of this team and I hope you felt the same about us. But I respect your principles.
I'm afraid I have bad news for you Lampus.
Hopefully our new member is pedro39 and he still wants that child support.
Please sign in pedro !

Evening all and welcome Pedro
I confirm that I’m in.

Yes indeed.
Welcome chaps.
madhatters still to decide and then there is the slight hope that Norfolk is alive and well. I'm not going to try and recruit further as ud is thinking of reducing the sides to 7.

Hi the Big fish

OK mad.
I'll see if ud will let me have Jinxy1. If he does we are up to 7 which might be enough if teams are going to be 7. If I can't have Jinxy1 or if it's 8 as before I'm counting on you.

I do hope that is the countdown to the Festival Lampus and that you are not in Putin's confidence.
We have another new recruit who,like Pedro,will be known to quite a few of you. Welcome to Jinxy1 !
The situation now is that we definitely have seven with madhatters prepared to play if necessary. At the moment ud is undecided about whether or not teams will be the traditional 8 or will be cut back to 7. Either way we seem to be OK so we don't need any further recruitment.
I'm afraid I don't think we can do anything but assume Norfolk isn't going to turn up. If he does we'll work something out.

Lampy being cornish could do the 25 on fingers and toes 
Still waiting on a s/d and a decision on whether the teams are 7 or 8.

Hi salmon, looks like we are going to stick to 8-a-side, so please confirm that madhatters completes your team.
Start date will be Sunday 5 March.

Ok ud.
Please acknowledge your willingness to participate madhatters.

You ARE needed mad as ud is going for the traditional 8 per team.
That means we are done and dusted
That means we are done and dusted
As you can see above we have a s/d of 5th March. Which means,if ud sticks to the usual formula,the second week of the first round will include Cheltenham.
I will start another thread in the next week or so.
