If we win Tuesday

[Silly Point]

Thought this was going to be about the India T20

Won't be an issue anyway. We're going home

Think you need to read his post a lot closer if you think that sounds like me......

Was just trying to draw you out man ....

Moving games to Sunday will have a knock on with 3rd teams/umpires etc. Surely you just stick to Saturday. If teams can't get a side out because they prefer watching England play football then fair dos. Played many times when tournament games have been on over the years.

You don’t need to adopt underhand tactics like that

 

[stephen cartwright]

there is always applying the likely lads method and watching it later

England F

Knew you would take it in the spirit it was meant

DCL meeting tonight - expect something to happen for Saturday's games. Probably move them to Sunday.

I'd be up for starting earlier on the Saturday though.

 

[The Voice Of Reason]

We have teams ready for Saturday whatever

moving them to sunday just moves the problem elsewhere - we have 2 teams on a sunday and have a few lads that play on both days - its unreasonable to move them as that puts pressure on us to get 4 teams out(which i doubt will happen).

I'd be up for starting earlier as well.

Should just play cricket IMO. If we win then you have the semi to look forward to for a night out if thats what you want, if we get beat you will wish you played cricket anyway. Win win.

 

[Greavsie]

I can’t believe that games they are considering making a change

We have 22 lads selected for Saturday and thats when game should be played. Ffs

 

[Ageing trundler]

Darlington and District League have moved to Sunday which I'm not happy with but we have stronger teams out as a result.

 

[Tongey]

Seen a few teams saying they want to start at 9ish. NYSD have said they can be flexible with start times as well i think, as long as both sides agree along with umpires

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

The best thing I've seen online is a ruling that both teams can move it to any mutually convenient time over the weekend.

The sad thing is that if England get to the cricket FINAL next year there'll be less of an outcry.

Have the NEPL made any decision on their Saturday fixtures yet? Thought they'd have put something on twitter about it but can't see anything.

No motion to change the fixtures so business as usual.

The meeting tonight is the standard monthly exec meeting. There is nothing on the agenda to discuss rearranging games and nor should there be IMO. No doubt it will be brought up though.

In addition, moving start times may worsen the situation with lads working on a Saturday morning, childcare etc

If both clubs are in agreement I don’t see why any league would have any issue personally.

This, as long as the game is played, both teams agree and umpires can get there, why not move it. Its better than teams conceding etc

Proper league.
