well, good luck chaps. it was a joke - suddenly you're all "ooh it's not funny, pj cussed our noble intentions to form a league, he's a cunt, we can't have that."

hope you feel better now, all cleansed, less precious.

i don't think it's necessarily the competition.

for me, i just want to play cause it's fun, but if i know that if i'm not committed to something solid then other things (uni, wife, work) will get in the way. this is just a good way to ensure that i make time to play...

genuine question here though seb - will people get so into their squads that they don't mix it up - what about beginners breaking in.. is it just going to be one of the nights a week or will everyone practice as a team on the other nights?

yeah, I'd like to be in some form of league. We don't have to play team games all the time, but playing as part of a team is great fun. The league isn't going to replace every game ever played, sundays will be fun games only, and there will still be plenty of opportunity to have throw in games at NE polo etc.

chill.

This sounds like fun, I'd be involved if I were staying in London. And if I had a team.

fwiw: a full league with points and all and fixtures, might be difficult to administer. a ladder might be better. you can challenge two above. people have set amount of time to respond to a challenge or they forfeit. a series of ladders, 12 teams in each. set periods, at the end of which top one gets promoted, bottom gets relegated. might work better considering the demands on peoples' time.

i think what has been said about the pick up games is valid, and if we are doing 4 games a month per team thats like one a week, lots of teams trying to get a team game in every week, means lack of pick up games.

one game a month
