RE: Who'll win the 2010/11 Abingdon League?
Permalink Closed

Sorry, forgot this wasn't the "We hate the Keys" thread....

Many moons ago the Premier Section consisted of 3 teams and the winners of Section One had to get more points than the 3rd placed team to get promoted (you like the idea of that, don't you) 

Anyway over the years the league's consisted of between 24-30 teams and therefore it was decided to make the Premier Section 4 teams and have automatic promotion/relegation and because if we made it larger we ould have a situation (if there was a BYE) where there were more teams in the Premier Section than Section One it would look odd.

Generally, we don't have more than 4 pretty good teams in any one season so the 4 team Premier Section works well. This season, whilst Oracle & Wootton have had poor seasons than in previous years a good tussle has been going on in Section One, certainly for the runner-up spot.

And just another little stat re Wootton; out of 5 Wins 3 of them have been against Oracle (twice) and Midget 'C', so it's their form vs Section One teams that have let them down.

Wouldn't it just be better to leave it as it is?

Obviously if a team that's been promoted lose there top players then maybe they could speak to kev before the season starts and request to be left in the previous section but then that's up to the captain and chairman?

I'm sure soon your see that the prem section will be:

Demos
Crown House
Midget C
Kennington B

although you could have 1 section split into 3 sections

A champions section with 3 teams

Demos
Midget C
Crown House

A prem section

Red lion
Cross keys
Kennington B
Wheatsheaf

Then Section 1

Wooton RBL
Kennington A
Peachcroft
Oracle A

I'm sure this be laughed of but a interesting idea on making it fairer to all teams

Even more strange is that George has won a few. Rick Selby is doing well. I was always going to be out the running for Most wins anyway as missed a few games and lost a few games though not doing too bad all things considered. :)

Obviously you now don't care if a team from Section Two are now in the wrong section plus to do this would (with current entries) leave a section with 2 byes. Also, the number of Teams per section alters depending on how many entries we receive

Arguably, but sadly you got relegated. YOU FINISHED LAST

Fighting talk, huh? Fireworks on the final day of the season then biggrin

Again - smiley face = humourous comment. That humour bypass kicking in again, Ming? biggrin

Obviously you now don't care if a team from Section Two are now in the wrong section Eh? I said promote - a minute ago you were banging on about promotion being deserved if a teams wins a section. Make your mind up! plus to do this would (with current entries) leave a section with 2 byes. Also, the number of Teams per section alters depending on how many entries we receive

That's why I said it's a theory!

Generally, we don't have more than 4 pretty good teams in any one   season so the 4 team Premier Section works well. Does it? This season, whilst Oracle & Wootton have had poor seasons than in previous years a good tussle has been going on in Section One, certainly for the runner-up spot.

Well, obviously not, since some of the teams will have moved sections.

And just another little stat re Wootton; out of 5 Wins 3 of them     have   been against Oracle (twice) and Midget 'C', so it's their form vs Section One teams that have let them down. That's nice! We've won 4 of our 5 games against Prem opposition, so should we be there too?

It's Not Fair

And? We deserved to be relegated. What's that got to do with anything? Dodging the point methinks.......
