Look in the other topic:

i.e. Trials - squad additions

Olly Brooks won his group I hear, how come he wasn't selected?
He is playing the best pool I have ever seen him play (30 odd years)

Is that down to his new Captain eh Gaz
Seriously,a BIG well done to everyone who got through what looked a tough line up, glad it was best of 5 in the end not 3 and pleased for Daz who was best player in Prem 2 last season

I don't really want to go into individual scenarios on the forum, but this situation is probably worth clarifying as I'm sure a number of other people will ask this one.

Ollie performed well, he only lost two matches on the day and would have qualified for the squad as far as raw results went. One thing we are looking for from all squad members is flexibilty to play either A or B. I had a chat with Ollie after the event on the subject and he indicated that didn't meet his expectation and wasn't for him.

good to see lovenest in there too
Well done Daz, I did tell him he was a quality player last season

Had a good day at Eastwood on Sunday, only won 2 of my group matches so missed the next stage by one win but it was good to have a go and looking forward to trying again next season.

Well done to all of the successful trialists and lets start with wins this Sunday!
