| 6 and 3 fallout - 7 | Dear WebEd. - I have no intention of entering into a debate with an alias, I was merely pointing out that the facts printed were incorrect over what had taken place at the AGM. - Paul Gobdeer |

| 6 and 3 fallout - 6 | Dear WebEd, OK Paul nothings perfect - but how are you going to save the league when teams continue to be short in both divs, then teams drop out, then theres just the one div and thats when the league will wind up - not long now unless I'm mistaken again. Waiting to hear your plan. - Ivan. |

| 6 and 3 fallout - 5 | Dear Web Ed. - Yes, I would like to point out that Ivan, yet again, IS very much mistaken. Firstly only 5 of the 8 votes against the motion came form 1st division teams, and secondly, how does the way that darts is played in the 2nd division not affect the 1st division? Two teams from this season's 1st division will be relegated and 2 from the 2nd will be promoted. If the teams in the 2nd were playing 6 and 3 so had signed on only 8 or 9 players how can promotion and relegation take place. This has been an ongoing problem in the Monday night league for many years and fortunately there were enough people in that room, not only from the 1st division, that could see sense. - Paul Godbeer, GWR West A. |

| 6 and 3 fallout - 4 | Dear Web Editor, Once again I have heard a few moans and groans about the way the voting went I said to these players: I didn't see you in the room at the Legion to put your hands up. The answer from one: We didn't know we had to attend. I said: Rose doesn't send out the paperwork for nothing. - President, Iain Sweeny. (I agree Iain, all the information was on our site for weeks before the meeting - and not hidden in the small print either! - WebEd) |

| 6 and 3 fallout - 3 | Dear WebEd, With only 5 teams not represented at the AGM (2 Jubilee, 2 St Thomas and 1 RBL Alphington), who's representative was in the bar and forgot to come up and vote - one wonders how the vote may have gone! By the way, after checking the names of players present(13), how did we get a vote of 8 to 6? - Laurie. |

| 6 and 3 fallout - 2 | Dear WebEd, Was I mistaken on Wed or did the first div boys vote to stop the second div boys from playing 6 and 3 when it didn't even affect them? - Ivan |

| 6 and 3 fallout -1 | Dear WebEd, Well done Jubilee Club, two teams in the league . . . AGM Wed night . . . no one bothered to attend. 14 players in the first team, perhaps they wanted 6 and three for the winter!!!!!!!!! - Bob. |

| All bingo and skittles . . . | Dear WebEd, Over the bridge again!!!!!!!!! us boys from Whipton Pinhoe area seem to spend all our lives playing darts in St Thomas area - what with the cost of taxis these days - and hey ho agm over the bloody bridge. Not your problem but can the committee consider this in the future please? Bob. Dear Bob, Nice to hear from you again, we did try to get a central venue for the AGM but Wednesday is the favoured day for our clubs to have bingo or skittles on, so we were lucky that the Legion could accommodate us in their committee room. |

| They say nostalgia's a thing of the past . . . | From Joe Sweney . . . Dear WebEd, How's This For Nostalgia?It took five minutes for the TV to warm up.Nearly everyone's Mum was at home when the kids got home from school. You'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny. All your male teachers wore ties and female teachers had their hair done every day and wore high heels. You got your windscreen cleaned, oil checked, and petrol served, without asking, all for free, every time. And you didn't pay for air. And, you got trading stamps. Washing Powder had free glasses, dishes or towels hidden inside the box They threatened to keep children back a year if they failed. . . and they did it! When a Ford Zephyr was everyone's dream car.Bottles came from the corner shop without safety caps and hermetic seals because no one had yet tried to poison a perfect stranger.When being sent to the head's study was nothingcompared to the fate that awaited the student at home. Basically we were in fear for our lives, but it wasn't because of drive-by shootings, drugs, gangs, etc. Our parents and grandparents were a much bigger threat! Who can still remember Mr Pastry, 6.5 Special, The Army Game , Sunday Night at the London Palladium, Emergency Ward 10, the Lone Ranger, Hancock's Half hour, Trigger and Sgt Bilko. Sweet cigarettes, Coca Cola in bottles, You're never alone with a Strand. Blackjacks and bubblegum. Home milk delivery in glass bottles with tinfoil tops. Newsreels before the film. Telephone numbers with a word prefix (Exeter 3489). Andy Pandy. Hi-Fi's & 45 RPM records. 78 RPM records! Green Shield Stamps. Adding Machines. Do You Remember a Time When . . . decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'?The worst thing you could catch from the opposite sex was 'chickenpox'? Having a Weapon in School meant being caught with a catapault? Saturday morning TV wasn't 30-minute commercials for action figures? The Worst Embarrassment was being picked last for a team?Cigarette cards in the spokes transformed any bike into a motorcycle? Anyone got any more? - Joe. |

| We're legal | Following a complaint to the League regarding the throw at Alphington Sports Club Laurie Parkhouse visited the club last Tuesday and conducted the officially-recognised measurement. I am pleased to report that the throw conformed to the rules. It is disappointing however that the team who complained didn’t have the courtesy to mention that they were unhappy with the throw at the time they played before complaining. I won’t embarrass the team in question. – Tony Grabham. |
