NORTH EAST King of Kings 2014

Also just out of curiosity who gets the final say if this gets cancelled or not?

Just that it could be a chew on getting somewhere else now and maybe not everyone will be able to make it.

If the majority of the people who are playing in the actual event are ok with it should go ahead i reckon, just see if they will give us complimentary range balls and something like a free pint in the bar after for the inconvenience.
 
Latest Update: I got another bland email back from the girl with the email of someone that I could complain to. Unfortunately, I've been out all afternoon since and when I tried to ring him just now he'd gone.

I can ring him tomorrow and see what i can get off them for nowt, but if there is a groundswell of you guys wanting to cancel then I would just look to cancel and get the whole amount refunded. I'm not actually playing in it so I will do whatever you guys want.

Personally, I think it would be too much grief to re-arrange and some people have made travel/hotel arrangements as well. I would suggest that I moan as best I can to get either money back or something for nowt and just leave it at that.

I'm happy still to play in it, end of the day it's only going to be an hour later at worst and yeah it looks like it's going to be busy but so is everywhere on a weekend now with the decent weather starting.

I'd maybe give the pro shop a ring and take it up with them if you get chance, judging by the emails you are getting it sounds like it's just someone from customer services rather than the pro shop who is dealing with it.

I'm sure the wouldn't begrudge complimentary range balls or something similar for the Inconvienence.
 
Don't envy you Nicky. I'd rather go ahead with it.

Don't worry, we'll have the last laugh with me Ben Crane-ing it around the final group, holding up their patrons. ;)
 
I'd rather play and than have it rearranged, wor lass has got her weekend arranged around me not being here, so I'd rather play a slow round than get it in the neck from wor lass.
 
Was gonna try and sneak in as a late entrant but...


Go for it Bri
Youre just what we need
An OLD CODGER :D to slow us all down and keep up with the (slow) pace of play Im sure were all expecting.....

Im sure they would squeeze another in
We have 4 tee times
And 3 of those are 3 Balls
Just join the 3rd group
2 x 3s
2 x 4s
 
I'm not entered into the King of Kings event however I don't think my opinion counts for less, after all I've paid exactly the same as everyone else to play Rockcliffe.

I was up for playing here and happy until they moved the goalposts. Call me stubborn or a man of principles but I don't like being taken for a mug. They obviously don't think much of us if they feel they can just move our tee times even though it's been booked for months.

If we stand up to them, maybe they'll think twice about doing it to others in future although I doubt that very much. I may be being a little over dramatic but I'd rather give my money to somewhere that values its customers.

But let's see what Nicky comes back with after speaking to them today (I bet he's sick as he isn't even playing)
 
New entrants go in the last group, players who are actually in the KOK move forward :thup:
Being in the last group I'm not exactly overwhelmed by the thought of some stuck up twit moaning every time we stop to look for one of Khamelions balls ;)
I'm happy to do what ever is decided.

To a degree
I feel the same about most/all you have written

But agree we gotta let Nicky try sort and report back

I certainly cant make any rearranged date , season starts this weekend , and intend to get stuck into home club fixtures this year
