stop press Happy League registration!! 19:43 - Aug 2 with 2726 viewsmrhappy

We have decided the following for the coming season.

The final day for registration is going to be
Thursday MIDNIGHT the 6th August.
No registrations will be accepted after that.

if we have less than 12 for the premiership- we currently have 10.
Players will be re-elected back in.

This means the order of relegation places last year - will determine if you are lucky enough to stay up.

In line for a return will be Barsidepete first and then Coomster.

If Coomster fails to register the next best in last years division 1 play-offs will get the last spot if available. To add further to the intrigue - as last years play off finalist bluewightexile is no more - the place will go to The Cup winner - Blue4u2- Rule 647 has never been activated before.

So

rscosworth And thenet better get a move on. It all hinges on their beating the deadline.

The decision is final!!!

Cheers
The president. Mr H.

OK FOLKS A FINAL DECISION HAS BEEN MADE.

IF RS fails to turn up - he will occupy the bottom relegation place until the end of the season.

which means ONLY 2 will get relegated and everything else will remain the same.

OVER AND OUT.


Only two relegated? Have you been drinking Sepp Happy?

Is RSCO going to be 12th in the table all season just because you have some agenda?

If you want to use the logic of he having gone into administration, I believe the proper protocol in the football league is where that void is filled. But if not, you seemed to to call my 3 down and 4 up a good idea, but then did an about face--and I would have been the first to benefit from an automatic back up.

You're going on the assumption that all those promoted will want to participate the following season (16/17) and that no one who is then in the Premiership will decide to no longer continue.

You're really screwing this league up, Haps.

I'd like to know where MFB is in all this process. Has he become merely your secretary because you're too lazy to run it yourself?

I'm glad I decided to post my Week 1 predictions when I did, if you know what I mean.

Hey Grumpy.
You worked hard for relegation. You should not be deprived of a season in Div. 1

I've repeatedly said I'm ok with that.

Happy initially suggested that the two who hadn't registered their interest, two in the Prem, would relinquish their spots to the top 2 relegated? --and as Haps has said he knows TheNet, I said, well, why not just contact him to remind him?

Then he did that. Then he took a poll and I also voted for "relegation" for anyone who doesn't participate. I thought that meant in 16/17 it would mean beginning all over again in D1.

I suggested that with three relegated we could go to 4 up, 3 automatically and 1 via playoffs. He said that was a good idea. Then Haps said, Only 2 will be relegated if it comes to pass there are only 11 in the Premiership. That decision out of the blue.

So by that logic if TheNet had not finally posted officially he was in, we would have had a 10 player Prem with only ONE person relegated?

I'd like to know where to MFB has disappeared to. He doesn't seem to have any input anymore. At least for my 4 years as admin I stood my ground. Implemented some changes like a pick-10 every 3 weeks where PLers could be guest presenters, and the "admin" would cover the other two weeks (12 games), a decent balance, kind of democratic.

Also no default scores unless someone posts that request, what scores they want. And no eligibility for cup competitions if 4 weeks are missed. Happy's son would before that time not been eligible to win the Happy Cup.

By Happy's logic that RSCOSWORTH is technically in the first relegation spot (12th), doesn't it reason to be that RSCO is eligible to begin posting Week 3 if he so decides? And if first time, Week 4, that would keep him in the mix for the Happy Cup?

I'm holding my breath for another new rule implemented before Thursday by JR.

Right lets get one thing straight THIS THREAD HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME. For those who had any doubt I AM ADMINISTRATING THE HAPPY LEAGUE. So do not take any notice of anything previously put on this thread. To put it simply RSCOSWORTH has until 12.00 Saturday 8th August to either register, or post his predictions to count as being registered. If he does that we will have the rightful 12 in the Premier. If he fails to register he will still have a further three weeks to post scores, before being eliminated from all Happy League competitions. In the unlikely event of him not taking part this season, the Premier will run with 11, with only two being relegated.

Hopefully wessex_exile will re-consider, and take his rightful place in the Premier. If he doesn't there will be no replacement. Also if that means the Premier only has 10 members, only one will be relegated.

I hope this makes things clearer with everybody.

Thank You, M!!

I've gotten in touch with RS and there are complications.

And NO! I don't want to go up because Happy created some new rules out of his arse.

I recommend if need be, 3 down as usual and 4 then up, like D1 4 down and D2 3 up and a playoff winner.

And if Happy has an issue with that, he's on thin ice, because I won't do his book for free then. I agreed to it because he's a friend. But then pay me $7200 per year, JR. That is my standard fee, JR.Haps.

*I have another project that is paying me straight into my account $300 every two weeks. Try me JR. You can then do yourself.

Well done, MFB. Spine is underrated, MFB. You got spine, mate.

You, MFB, ... and Wessex, and me can run this PL in its facets just fine.

I've said that before.

When even Wessex gets ticked off you know we've reached an impasse with Haps considering himself the queen of it all. You and I have run it for now, what, 6 years? And Wes has a fab Champions League.

We may have to move on. I mean, I frickin fly out out to see the U's play 3-4 times. That's like 4 season tickets if I actually lived there in terms of costs.

I hope Wessex and Barsidepete can settle their differences.

Haha - too true, though to be fair all the UN normally do is resolve to create more conflict :-)

As of course did I, and posted scores.

You lift up the hopes of us who did get relegated, and what a terrific final week that was, full of drama 14/15.

On a side note, how many in D1 now? 14-15?

All 12 Premier members have now registered, so I can now confirm there will be 3 relegated from this league. As for Division One we are still waiting for 4 members from last season to register. Also there is still time for any new members to register, so a decision on how many will be promoted from this league will have to put on hold for time being. With potentially at least 15 members in this league, there could an extra promotion place up for grabs, as every effort will be made to keep the numbers in each league equal.

Looks like a maximum of 14 in Division One at the moment. If that is the case then 12 in the Premier it will be.

No chance. There are a number of members who didn't get to do one last season, who will be offered one first.
