Surely more Ian McGeechan than Clark Gable?
The Healer:
In the run up to the Scottish Championship, the moderator posted the following;
"Feel free to spread to word, we are slightly baffled as to where all the Scottish APATers are hiding at the moment.
If the demand is not there, it makes it tough to justify heading to Scotland next season."
I dont want pee on the campfire, but, what is the view with regards Cork and the number of runners ?
TightEnd:
this was addressed earlier in this thread
In summary
- Its the second year in a row Irish numbers have been light
- In part the local venues need to promote more. The Macau acknowledged this.
- This year we were unlucky in that a 700 runner Dublin event was scheduled after ours and took a lot of people away this weekend
- UK APAT travellers seemed to have the view that Cork was a non-option. This was incorrect, but the perception never changed. You could have done Cork for 2 nights for around £200 all in from most UK destinations. One player, an APAT regular, did the weekend (after buy in) on less than £100 on a tight budget
Next year we intend to change the date of the Irish event (before summer holidays, before WCOAP) and without any clashes we"ll aim to get 120+ again
For Scotland, I think I have solved the venue problem. (either unsuitable venues or lack of support from card-rooms have been a problem for over 2 years )
For season 6 overall, where planning is in progress, season 5 has taught me much about scheduling and what suits people best
