Trevenson 8 - 7 Trickies
RBL 4 - 11 Tiggers
CCC 7 - 8 Waggoners
White Hart B 8 - 7 Red Jackets B
Spice 3 - 12 Victoria
And as for the other little occurrence taking place tonight, I refer you to my voting in the poll - UP THE EAGLES!!!!! Av it.
Clifty - have you thought about opening a book on the first players to have a 'tete-a-tete' tonight? Must be at least one minor ding dong during the evening or it wouldn't be a proper Eagles v Scum match!!!

I was actually thinking earlier that with the match being over 15 frames instead of 9, it gives even more time for some friendly (???) banter! It should be fun anyway. As for predictions, i'll go for:
Trevenson 7-8 Tricky's
Illogan 6-9 Tuckingmill
Cricket Club 6-9 Waggoners
White Hart B 6-9 Red Jackets B
Spice of Life 5-10 Victoria
As for the other match, i'll just go for an Eagles win with only a couple of heated debates during the match.

Don't have to wait till later Gerbil's already started one... Scum hey???
It's a good job I'm not playing tonight otherwise yet again I'd have to wipe your pathetic grin off your face with an 8 ball.

Ah, that's the spirit. Perhaps an 8 ball may have been more useful to keep your place in the starting line-up Mr Saundry sir?
Says the bloke who's been dropped for being sh**e for the last umpteen weeks ;-)

That's more like it! It's been a bit quiet leading up to this match but glad to see we're going in the right direction now! (although slightly off the predictions topic but who cares!). Roll on the match! (don't forget that we're starting 7.30pm tonight).

It's a shame you admitted being shit Andy coz I was about to mention the fact you don't even appear on the aggregrate table!!!

Good point, well made.
No arguing with that one!!

I wouldn't say sh!t...Robbie Roy doesn't appear on the aggregate table either so i prefer to think that the Red Jackets side have strength in depth!?!

I wouldn't really call it strength in depth. You've just got more than 6 players.
Well seeing as Andy has backed down - what else we gonna bitch about?
I know... how fucking annoying your table is!

7:30 start hey? maybe we will pop over and watch a couple of frames before we BEAT the waggoners (cheers guys for all saying we will lose).

What's wrong with the table...are the pockets too tight for you???

Well 1) the pillar in the middle of the room obstructs your shot 2) the wall on oneside also obstructs your short and 3) if i remeber it's not that straight and the cushions are dead but being the home side you've probably worked out all your angles where it rolls and which cushions are dead.

Ah i see, so that's why we beat you at our place! Now tell me why we beat you on your table as well then......

The reason you win on our table is because every little kiss, every little nudge, every fucking roll goes your way! To be completely honest I think you're probably the only person that actually deserves to win a frame coz 9 times out of 10 you play well for it and don't get lucky.

Well here's hoping that we're lucky again tonight!

i love the fact that all the excuses are rolling out early - ever thought of blaming yourselves when you lose? why cant anyone ever accept they lost fairly?

Now Mrs McGuire, i don't think you'll find any posts from Red Jackets making excuses.

well i can see that things are heating up
my predictions are :
tigers - illogan 10-5
trevenson - trickies 8 - 7
ccc - waggoners 5 - 10
white hart b - red jackets b 9 - 6
spice - victoria vm 2 - 13
eagles - W H A.............................i'm gonna go with 10-5
white hart a good side but me finks eagles are better (sorry W.H.A)

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Clifty has voted several times for Whie Hart on the poll. We spoke only a few weeks ago people piling the pressure on and it's funny that we're almost level being hours away from the match.
Most people that come on here think Red Jackets are gonna win so lets see how many points they can get. If you're such a good side then you should be able to get at least 12...

mr saundry are you laying down a challenge to the eagles that would be interesting

Damn bloody right I am!!! So come on Mr Clift, I challenge you and your troops (nearly called you something else) to take at least 12 points tonight. If you're so bloody good, I'm sure you can wipe the grin off my face.

To be honest, i think any win will wipe the grin off your face BUT we will endeavour to try and win as many frames as possible.

I can openly admit that I've not played thank you, if you look at my reply Tonkin you will see. If we are totally out played then hats off but the majority of games with RJ's hinder on one or two pieces of fortune.
It's all about banter anyway not who's right and who's wrong. I thought women liked arguements, it's all they seem to do.

Surprisingly, i've only voted the once and that was for Red Jackets...however i am aware that there are people who've voted on quite a few occasions for White Hart but seeing as that's the team they play for then that's hardly surprising.

So who's the numpty that allowed people to vote more than once??? That's like leaving an open sweet jar in a shop and saying take ONE... christ knows where that came from!

well mr clift you haven't replied to the challenge or are you waiting for tonight !!! or are you gonna let your pool game do the talking !!!

Nah, it will take a special win to wipe the grin off my face. We know what were in for BUT the best feeling in the world and I think I speak for many is seeing your face when your team get beaten and your so called unbeaten run ENDS!

Mr O'Mahony sir, obviously we'll try to win 12 frames as well as the other 3 BUT i'm sure White Hart will be doing the exact same...only time will tell what the score will be. In reply to you Mr Saundry sir, one member of your team even registered as another member so they could vote even more!

The 'so called unbeaten run' ending will indeed cause the grin to be wiped from my face but i'm aware that it's going to happen one day but until that day i'll carry on grinning (and frowning when watching certain members of my team play kamikaze shots...they know who they are!).

Well those kamakizie shot players would be Andy jory and gary potter then?!! :-)

Mr Tonkin sir, i'm afraid that (not for the first time!) you are wrong! I've gotten used to them and to be fair to Garry Potter he has calmed down nowadays and isn't so kamikaze and i'd never really call Gerbil kamikaze...more unorthodox!
