Hi guys I think there was a discussion before about possible improvements to the league as its possible to win league 1, then end up in league 3 in a couple of weeks! I was going to suggest either 1) limit promotion/relegation to just 1 or maybe 2 places Or 2) maybe make the league into monthly seasons, then promote/relegate 3 people based on the end of month standings Any thoughts?
Ron and I had a chat some time ago about possible changes to the comp. In the end I decided to leave it as it is. The reason being I wanted the guys who live for long periods in L3, to have a better chance of promotion. If we moved the comp to a monthly duration, those who usually swim in L3 might become disheartened. Besides, if 3 go down, it gives for those who live in L1 a better chance to experience a little humility.
If it ain't broke don't try and fix it! No probs, I think everyone is happy with it as it is anyway. I'll be even happier when I return to league 1 this week!
But I'll tell you what I will do, I'm more than happy to hand it off to others who want to have a go. That way the comp can wander off in all manner of directions, and that can't be a bad thing I suppose. This isn't an off the cuff offer either, it's something I've been thinking about for a while. So if anyone wants to take a crack, just give me a whistle.
Hi Cycly, I've been out of circulation for a while. Can I join this league? I haven't looked at a race in years and there's no way I'm going to put on money, so I figured this would be a good way to get back in the swing of things. Could you please explain all the rules to me? Cheers.
Hey mate, long time no see. Parole? It's all pretty simple Eez, just pick 5 horses from any of the daily UK races. All win singles. Placings are figured out on tote odds and the top 3 in each league get promotion, the bottom 3 go down. Easy. NR goes to favourite. Saturday only comp mate. Welcome. Are you still blogging? I loved that stuff of yours.
