SNCL 2018/19

Oban has entered

[Andy Howie]

This is where I think we are.  I need IPCC to let us know if they are entering or not as it is holding up doing the draw.  Inverclyde have withdrawn which means Hamilton A Stay up.  If we have an odd number of teams, Dunfermline have offered to put a filler team in for us so we won't have any byes (Thanks to them for this!!)

If IPCC drop out, Perth Stay in Div 2 and Crouching Tigers are promoted to Div 3.  If they are still in, then they remain in Div 2, Perth are Relegated to Division 3 and Crouching Tigers stay in Div 4.

Thank you Andy, fantastic job.

See everyone on Sunday. If you want to come and don't have a team please turn up as there's always at least one team that has a default board. All friendly games are graded.

Play will start at 10.00am  Please arrive early so that I can get your money. I'm playing too so don't want to lose time on my clock!!!

Hi Andy

Division 2 Round 2 - Should it be Dundee City B v Dunfermline Knights rather than other way round?

Hi Andy

Division 2 Round 2 - Should it be Dundee City B v Dunfermline Knights rather than other way round?

Not necessarily, considered in the whole of the competition then the 4-3 split of whites or blacks on the first board is the main criteria. When the teams appear on the left or right hand of the column is irrelevant, neater perhaps.

Dundee City B do appear 5 times on the right side of the pairings suggesting 5 times Black on board 1 and only 2 with White which may be a bigger problem.

I must have knocked the switch pairings when i went through and checked them.  OOPS, yes it should be the other way around, will fix it later on

Hi Glynis,

I have two new keen players at Paisley. Can I bring them to play the default boards for a game?

Cheers
