Toronto Tanks 2009 - 'The Year of the Tank'

[WestIndian]

Just to let you guys know I have made a complaint to the owner of PCPL about not being picked for this team.

was that an official complaint, I guess as Co-Owners we have to wait and see then!!!!

 

[barmyarmy]

As a result of the complaint we resimmed the match with Wolf in the team and this time Manchester won...

Wrong. End. Stick.

Ok guys, although I'd rather not be needed to "hold-hands," in a player-club dispute, I do have concerns.

Any club which is not playing its active players are defeating the whole object of the PCPL.

It is neither my concern, nor worth wasting my time, dealing with such things! Can I trust that the Toronto Tanks and its employee Wolf can come to some sort of decision?

There's nothing I can do - I either get picked or don't. As said you cannot ignore me and pick three bowlers who have posted ZERO yes I repeat ZERO times all season.

Wolf I understand your concerns and I respect them, but I select teams to win based on ability and type of wicket. I can say the same for a few other guys, the fact is when selected we play as a team and win, we are in a position to press for top spot, that would mean with our players both from PC and International, we would have done well.
If you look at the fixtures for this month, we have a couple matches to play and you will get your chance AGAIN.

Wolf I want you to listen, carefully, as Co-owner of TT, and the most active member in here, I will tell you such outburst in public will not be tolerated, we do not need team members pulling apart the kind of unit we have built over this season, playing 11 or not, if that was to happen again, from you or any other member of TT, you will lose from your fees for the season!!
You have a problem or concern, you should have PM me, I don't need PCPL Owners getting into our house because you have invited them in.
Thank you.

Mate it is an online simulator. There is no such thing as ability and team spirit. What you're doing is against the spirit of cricsim/PCPL. You haven't been around cricsim on this forum as long as I have, IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING you don't pick inactive players ahead of active ones.

Damn I am seriously out of form with the ball in the last couple of matches, hopefully I will pick up a couple of wickets and get the rhythm back.

Agree with Wolf tbh, just pick active players. That is fair. Dont worry about winning just pick active players. Pleases everyone then.

But half of you can't even put 3 posts in a match thread, Ledzep you were captain and you have been nowhere near as active as you possibly could of/should of been.

Well i have had some real life issues to deal with (most of my time being taken up by revision for exams coming up) But i don't know the ins and outs of this i am just saying pick the team based on activity, that is the fair way IMO.

 

[Ollie_H]

Okay you have had issues and revision... but the major thing is people have been active but it wasn't hasn't been a major difference between the people who have been 'active' and the ones that haven't been.

 

[barmyarmy]

Well you're topping division 1 at the moment despite that. Should be an exciting final week.

 

[ledzep]

Yeah well that shows we must be doing something right

Alright guys, I have had a busy, a very busy couple of months, starting with the events in Lahore. This is possibly my second access to a computer since that infamous day, and I'm sure I have lots of questions and criticism and whatnot to face of my views on the security situation in Pakistan.

I'm simply going to say go Toronto since thats all I can contribute at the moment.
To my other friends on PC (yes, Indians included ), who I'm sure will have a field day with my return, I won't be here till around May again, so you will have to hold off till then it seems.

Anyway, I expect Toronto to have won this by my return

Oh, and this in no way undermines my availability for season 3, or the rest of the PCPL, if the selectors wish to recall me (I think it was a 5 match ban?)

I will be back
