Brighton polo tourney this summer

Coffe shop or beer shop?

I am getting my head checked at the doctors

Finally.

you can all come to mine yard if ye wish, it's just by the Rose Hill, on Baker Street. Anywhere else is fine by me too though

fine by me as long as you have a kettle.

can haz kettle, will go to shops for the rest of beverage-making equipment.

Apologies for not making it to the meeting, y'all. No excuses other than the bike build took forever and then the dog fucked off and then I was gonna drive in but a spaceship landed in my garden and little green men started setting up a sound system that looked like a biscuit tin and then a...

OK, Polo meeting was had.

Resolutions have been made and the ball is rolling along quite nicely.

I'll tell you all the gory details on Sunday if you come to polo, WHICH YOU SHOULD.

What did we agree on the tournament logo for spokecards etc?

Was it the crossed mallets AND seagull smoking a cigarette?

What was the idea about a seagul attacking the cctv camera?

1.1 – Teams will consist of three players.
1.2 – Substitutions.
1.2.1 – A team can substitute a player in response to player injury or unforeseen absence.
1.2.2 – If the player injury occurs more than two weeks prior to the tournament, the substituted player must be chosen and declared before the first day of tournament play.
1.2.3 – If the injury occurs during the tournament a substitute may be chosen to replace the injured player.
1.2.4 – Once the change is made, the team is then set for the duration of the tournament.
1.2.5 – No player can play in two different teams in the same event, unless his/her team has already been eliminated.

There are rules already in place

Where are we at with the teams? As far as I'm aware, it's:

Brighton A/Mallet tossers: Dice, Liam, Julian
Bi Polo: Danny, Blaise, Sean
don'tpasscunts/Daft Punks: Thom, Josh, Chris

and Tim's playing with his bro's...right?

I haven't had a chance to speak to Thom and Josh yet, so can't confirm what's happening. Does anyone know? What's Rich doing?

I'm in Chris , If thats all cool with you. Cant speak for thom though

Mallet Tossers!?! I never agreed to that! I'm down with Brutal Deluxe or Screaming Seagulls! Word :)

Just tossers would be a good one!

When we can expect the logo/witty hipster tourney name. Shouldn't we get a TwatBook page organised so we can start to generate some local interest? Some spectators other than kids from the play park would be good. Maybe speak to The Argus too?

We can't go too far with the promotion as we are hoping to side-step the "legitimacy issue". If it's an organised event we'll need public liability, permission from the council and a whole host of other things. As it stands, it's an informal gathering at a public park - advertising or drumming-up support would probably push us over into formality - ye get me blud!?

i like our name.

Yup. Loud and clear, Paul. All good.

Thom, which bit: First, second, or the whole lot in the big amalgamated mess that it is at the moment?

the first bit.though it was decided just before someone called 3.2.1.polo on one of the games that it'll change to bird plus support.

bird plus support ftw.

I have no team :( i am happy to act as a sub if any are required

Awww Rich, poor baby! There'll be plenty of scope for having a team as we get more people involved.

Gully has been purchased...

Rich - I feel like i'm being untrue to the Brighton crew not playing with you.

I can ask if my brothers can find a third player and I'll join you? Who would be no.3?

Hey, no worries man. Seems like you want team Warin to happen so I am happy to throw a team together last minute or be a brighton sub. I havent been down for a while so it wouldn't be right to assume i'm playing with guys that have been playing together more recently.

Thanks for the offer though :)
