Rowly Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Okay folks, line up and we'll chose Captains and then teams. The game will commence at Totteridge and Whetstone (High Barnet not having a multi-unit light signal at present.) The rules will be drawn from the 2003 edition of Stovolds Mornington Crescent Almanac. revised. Lifts and escalators apply. Any newcomers must declare themselves available to team Captains.

I.Mupferit Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Ooh, ooh me sir please I want to play too and you can have my coat for a goalpost but I'm not going in goal either. I see myself more as an attacking player wearing the No 9. One other thing......I only have the 2002 edition of Stovolds Almanac but I have it on good authority that this shouldn't preclude me from the action up front.

Rowly Posted December 9, 2003 Author Share Posted December 9, 2003 Okay gentlemen, It shall be white against grey. To converse with your team- mates, preceed your comment with the team colour. At this point to ensure fair play and gen'lmanly conduct the opponents will look away from the screen. To designate your move place it in upper case. Here goes...................... White, I think the strongest move would be a parallel to Southgate, giving us the opportunity to knip grey asap.

Buda Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 after working out I'm grey, I shall parry your move and suggest a thrust toward PARK LANE which should put the 'cat' amongst the 'pidgeons' if you would pardon the pun. sorry turn jumping - just seen Brent is grey as well - could do with a list of who's on each side Edited by - Buda on 9 Dec 2003 08:50:52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisb Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 If I am not too late may I join? My knowledge is still somewhat limited, but further to yesterdays game, I am some what more 'aufait' with various tactical monouvres. If therefore am allowed to play, I would consider the following move to be most appropriate:- South Harrow All you have to do is decide which side I may play for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
