Formby/Royal Liverpool Dunghill cup new joint thread March 16/17th

******************************* breakying news alert *******breakying news alert **********************************

We have secured the Toby carvery, Formby to open at 8.30. Huzzah!!!!!!

Formby GC are only doing bacon rolls, so I think it will be more or less the same as a full breaky in the toby. So I'll see you all at the Toby carvery between 8.30-9.00, although give yourself enough time time to eat 8 sausages and still waddle off to Formby GC. I'm guessing it is approx 5-10 mins drive away, subject to the trains not closing the road.

Great work, will get myself down there for brekkie beforehand. As long as I survive the drive from Manchester without eating my hand.
 
Scott, I can pick you up if we can squeee you clubs in my car, not far down the East Lancs for me.

With regards to Formby, when we played there the other month, the road was closed at the railway crosiing and there was a bit of a detour in place.

That would be a big help if its no trouble? :) Im only carrying so it will just be a carry bag, my shoes and my clothes.

On another note:-

Sadly Rob2 has had to drop out of both days due to personal reasons. If anybody knows anybody who would like to play either day so we can try and get him some money back let me know. Im not sure where we are up to with StuC regarding his place that he has offered up on Monday due to work but after StuC has offloaded his there is also Robs place now too.

What do you think Scott,Is it worth us starting a new thread in the lounge, and arrange a game,advertising the places. We might stir some interest?
 
No we didn't, a couple of 2 ball locals came through but that's to be expected and they came through the other GM 4-ball also with Kenny in behind us. We had Martin in sight on the tee's as we were on the greens 1 hole behind most of the round :ears:

There's a link to the Toby further back.

Ha ha ha...... just knew there would be a story behind it :lol:
 
I've PM'ed Rob, sad to hear he can't make it.

I've PM'ed Staffo77 who asked to be kept as a reserve for both, but will wait and see. In the meantime, if people want to ask any mates etc to see.

Regarding StuC's place, and these two specs, don't worry if it doesn't mean we can't do the pairs comp. If we manage to get the lads some or all of their money, that is the better thing, as far as I'm concerned.

Lets see what we can do. I'm guessing if we can get £100 for the two rounds for Rob, he may be happy (a £30 discount on what we've paid, I think).

I though similar with the £100 etc. As fate has it StuC and Rob were paired together :eek:
 
Is StuC playing the Sunday? Just so i know what im selling? Im gonna try everybody i know to see if i can get any takers.

Good idea Dave, will get that sorted. Certainly worth a try.
 
Just been round the station and put the word out to the drivers and guards about Sunday/Monday will keep you posted.
 
If anyone does have any people interested outside of the forum, PM me or Birchy with the offer also, although I think £80 or more like £100 for both rounds should be the going rate, which is a £30 discount.

Just in case someone else has made an offer. We don't want to turn it into a dutch auction, but want to get a fair price for Rob, and maybe Stu also.

Podgster - it wasn't clear to me about your mate - is he having one of Stu's rounds, or none of them?

I have a mate who may be interested in Formby only, but will only pay £30-35 so will keep him on the backburner.

LB, The lad i had in mind was interested in the Monday round from Stu C however he can't get the day off any more. From reading through i believe Stu C is not available for the MONDAY ONLY and Rob is not available for BOTH. I have asked my mate about Sunday for Robs place and he will get back to me today. If it goes before he gets in touch then so be it.
 
Alright fellas I see this thread has bit of confusion so I'll try to clear or up on my side.

I'm struggling for Monday as it stands but if anybody is intrested in both days then they're welcome to both days if it keeps the initial comp going.

If not then just the Monday.

I'm not really bothered about the money tbh, I know Birchy and Pedro have put a lot of time and effort into the organising of this and I don't want to mess them about.

Does this make any sense whatsoever??


I.thought not!

Yep, it does mate. As I said don't worry about the pairs/singles comp.

If you can sell the Hoylake and play Formby, that would be great.
