Macc Quiz League - Finals Night Reminder + Quiz withdrawal symptoms?
Folks,
A reminder
that the last event of the season, the Finals Night, is tomorrow, Tuesday
4 April, at the Weaver as usual, 7.30pm onwards for prompt 8pm start.
The evening will consist of
the Cup Final and then the presentation of all this season's prizes. The
Cup Final match is Royal Oak v Ox-fford ‘C’
Also available on the
Finals Night will be the season's last News & Views, which will give
all the tables and statistics for the entire season.
My thanks
also to Glyn Bradley for the below reminder for those of you suffering a
lack of quiz related input at the end of the season…
If
anyone missed this in November the BBC is repeating this on Tuesday.
In
the same vein I finally got round to reading The Joy Of Quiz and
can recommend it as a highly entertaining read.
And
Finally…Quiz Monkey!
The below new
website has been created by our very own Haydn Thompson and contains a
wealth of material to help you either find the answers to some questions, help
you set some questions or just keep your GK up to speed!
Do have a
look and see what you think. It is being added to by Haydn on a regular basis
and this is where to start…

Week 17...
21/03/2017 sees the last games of the season. The A
League is pretty much done and dusted barring a battle for second place in
a season where the Ox-fford ‘C have
reigned supreme.
The B League still has the title to be decided but congratulations to the British Flag and Waters Green Rams who will be going up next season.

In the C League, the Plough Horntails will be going up and the other promotion spot sits
between the Harrington ‘B’ and the Park Timers. In both B & C Leagues,
the last round of matches will decide the League Champions.
Finally, my appearances as a player and my efforts at producing these notes have been very sporadic since Christmas due to commitments elsewhere. I’m grateful to my team for filling the gaps in my absence and to everyone else for their patience in waiting for me to get around to things.

The loss of Matt Rogers in recent weeks has also brought more perspective to our weekly entertainment, following on from last year’s loss of both Rick Davis and Alan Levitt. It feels a good time for a summer break, with only one other thing remaining, namely…

Week 16...
Respect is due…
…to the Ox-fford ‘C’, already uncatchable as A League Champions this season.
The Ox-fford ‘C’
are also going for a League and Cup
double, which hasn’t been done for over 10 years (2005/06 to be precise),
although the Royal Oak would hope to
insert a spanner appropriately in that respect.
Congratulations
too to the British Flag, back in the
A League again next year and just a point from their last two games will seal
the B League title.
All very
tense in the C League where 2 of the
top 3 will be going up. Interesting that the current top two – The Harrington ‘B’ and the Plough Horntails – play each other next
week in the very last game of the season.
It will
be more exciting than that Europa League football, that much is certain…
