S5 - Who's up for it?
« on: March 11, 2011, 16:57:21 PM »
Thought I"d start the thread to see who"s up for this season

Although we had a reasonable amount of players registered, why don"t we put names to this thread to evaluate our attendance!

I take it that Ant is up for a captains performance again?

In answer to your question Chris,i think its time for someone else to take up the mantel.I pushed hard season one to recrute personnel,many registered there intent to play,however,in reality we had to rely on 6 regulars.This simply isn"t enough in the current format.We have done ok,we have quality over quantity,but you only have to look at Walsall,Nottingham,Solent and Luton to see quantity rules the day.We are in the unfortunate position of having Walsall in too close a proximty,many of there players could/should play for us but choose not to.

I think a merger would be a good idea - having two teams representing geographies that are so close to each other is a bit daft, and makes recruitment pretty difficult. The balance of player volume is hugely in favour of Walsall - B"ham has a very small nucleus of 4/5 players that play regularly - kind of means we have no hope of winning anything... and any new players that join will always favour Walsall for this reason.

Leigh - can this happen??

I deffo think it should it was all a mistake that we became fragmented ( split for the thickies) in the first place other areas have been allowed to consolidate (look it up thickies ) so why cant we  woop

If we looked to merge them, we"d have to call the new club "Birmingham Poker Club"

If the Walsall captain and team were happy with that, then I"ll look into it further.

I do agree, that you are geographically very close, but when we set them up, it was done around casino locations.

I will see what the Walsall reply is to this thread.

LOL - would have been easier to just say No then :)

As this thread is labelled as Birmingham, and most Walsall players seem to think they will catch some sort of Brummie disease by reading a Birmingham thread, most won"t actually see this suggestion, let alone comment on it ;)

Is it up to them?

If you allow most of the best players in APAT to merge into one team, this might well be the outcome:

Sounds like an excellent idea.

Personally i joined Walsall as it was the closest and most of my BCPC team mates played for them but there are many of my team mates playing for Birmingham too and i"d much rather be playing on the same side as them than against them.

Having them onside would make us an even more formidable team which can only be a good thing.

How about we just change the name to Black Country Poker Club? That"ll certainly get Brian onside.  :)
