MSG Matchplay?

[ollieb]

Just wondered if there has ever been an MSG matchplay comp, maybe played across a season, home & away legs and a round robin format to guarantee playing a few games/courses, and regionalised to keep travelling distances down?

Longshot used to organise the SE one.

Tended to be the battle of the 'Byes'

Not sure a final ever got played

Yes, been a few, turned out the easiest way to win one was just to never arrange a game.....

Back in the early days we were a much more friendly group.  Down South we had at least 5 events a year, plus the Ryder Cup, a Winter League, a Summer League, a Matchplay competition, and loads of 'bounce' games as well.  The idea was to get out and meet new people and be more social.

Strangely though, once people actually met those of us that remain they tended to not stick around for much longer...

Same happened in the North! Just drifted into apathy...

Sad, but true.

I think I was Scottish champion one year and I didn't even enter.....

What it doesn't say is that I won the Southern one beating TP in a very close final at the Addington

Thank you Si!

I've been giggling all through the train home. Tears in my eyes now.

I've just re-read it as well.  For a few ludicrous minutes I thought that perhaps I'd give it another go in 2013.  After reading that thread, there's no fecking way I'm doing it again 

I wish I'd kept the 2,500 PMs that accompanied it
