How's about I do this then? Give it a few weeks then open it up to any comer if there are spots left?

That sounds like a good solution. I was really keen to attend this as I'd like to improve my game and would love the chance to represent TE at a EuroBowl or Europen one day, but only if good enough on merit. Unfortunately I can't make the Euro Cup as I'm already booked up for a family occasion.

Have done this, will see what people say.

How do we best communicate this wider? Whilst TFF is a focal point for many English coaches I think we run the same risk as the initial conversation starter of not being inclusive if we focus down to just one or two communication channels. Given that this was the thing most people were keen on doing it's pretty disappointing it is only half full. I suspect this is more comms than lack of interest, but I may be wrong.

Thanks for that fantastic contribution there. I guess as it's not been long enough in your personal opinion I'll just let you shut down another conversation.

I've contacted the EB team directly by WhatsApp, emailed all English EO captains. Hoping spaces will be filled. What did you have in mind?

Over half full in less than a week with months to go seems OK to me. At 16 players the expected scale is pretty modest anyway. Are you still wanting to come along btw?

PS don't think lunch trying to shut things down just point out it's early days, right?

Harsh sounding reply. Thanks for making me feel small. Does that make you feel better?


The point I was making, and not trying to shut anything down, was that it's only been a few days and it takes time to get things rolling and fill up the spaces. I think it will fill nicely, just not immediately.

Just sent payment can you just confirm received cheers

Received mate

Having been away from the TFF boards for a week (on hols with the family) I wouldn't be overly concerned about the response level after 4 days. The recent "Calling All English Coaches" thread took a while to get going as well; both are fine IMO as long as the interest keeps ticking along.

That said, if people want to cross post to any of the FaceBook Blood Bowl forums / FUMMBL then that would help promote awareness.

If i'm welcome as a Anglo-Dane I would like to take part

Absolutely Kåre!

BTW I've changed the precise location to Bugman's Bar next door to WHW. Nice vibe, tables more suitable, can sit and have a drink. Classic BB setting.

We have a trophy!
