Any suggestions on spicing? I have personally given up with it, it seems to me people have got lazy.

Personally I think the Thursday game has drifted too far from it"s origins and stopped being a fun evening. The addition of assorted APAT visitors to the mix makes a fun game but it"s not the same, and in truth there hasn"t been a true Nobbers Night for a couple of years now.

^^ 100% agreed.
Thursday gone was the worst yet IMO. Think it could be a sad time and RIP the Thursday game for a while until people remember that it should be a fun evening... let me know when that games back.. but then maybe you can"t turn back time :( This might be an option for the future though with an "APAT local game".. something to think about anyways..

Hi Mark - Random question but does the league need to be tied to a physical venue? could it be run as a home game with the individuals paying the weekly fee(s)... which people are invited to and could maybe run in multiple locations / pub / club etc?

Hi Phil
Great question.
The short answer is Yes - with a But!
Long answer a little more complex.
Its something that we are presently looking at - we realise that it may very well assist and be popular for players without current/existing APAT Local venues in their area - so we are currently drawing up guidelines for the rules and parameters that the very thing you are asking could be implemented for players - we believe there are no legalities to fall foul of, so i would very much hope that very shortly we can bring you details of how this can be done and will work - so if you dont mind, please bear with us for a little while. I will bring you an update and - hopefully - a finished version of this shortly.

Reason for this? I dont know why we cant just turn up and get spannered like we used to? I think that a couple of the people that go have definitely changed the atmosphere, but how do we change that? Im loathed to see it fall away, but people just dont seem to give a **** if it happens, which hurts tbh. There is no way we can just tell people they are no longer invited, if there was then i would do it myself.
What difference would an "APAT local game" make?

Loathed as well but what can be done? The local game might bring back some interest and a mini league like we used to mate.. we need something to generate some interest and more importantly bring back the banter which is sadly missing. Too many people taking it way too serious and not taking it for what it is which is supposedly "fun". Which it definitely isnt sadly x
