Hello everybody! It's time to get the site up and running again as we approach the coming season. |

Pre-season Friendly
As last year we are
going to hold a friendly pre-season match between a Stockport
Quiz league team and a Withquiz Team.
It'll be 6-a-side
and will be played at the Albert Club on Wednesday September
10th starting at about 8.30pm.
As last year we will have
half of the evening given over to Stockport-style rounds and
half to Withquiz-style rounds.
I have already set the Withquiz questions and will act as host and QM.
I suggest
that each of Withquiz's 11 teams nominate a team member for the
league side. Assuming we get more than 6 we will have subs
at half-time to ensure everybody gets a game.
Of course spectators
are very welcome.
I will email team
captains with these details.
Please get back to me
with your nominees.

2008-09 WithQuiz Season - The Teams
& Venues
Unless I hear
otherwise I will assume your team is entering the fray for
the new season.
At the time of going
to press we have no new teams and no retiring teams.
There is,
however, one name change. The Albert Park are to be
known as the Getaways. There's also one venue change. The Electric Pigs are returning to the Fletcher Moss. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2008-09 WithQuiz Season - The
Fixtures
The fixtures are now
on the site.
If there are any further
changes (new teams/name changes/etc.) then I will update the
fixture list before the first matches.
You will see that
we start the season on Wednesday October 8th and I note that we
have matches on both November 5th and April 1st to look forward
to this season - theme-setters get busy.
Both Gary and I
are indebted to Ethel Rodin's Roddy this year for producing
the fixture list. He has managed what we singularly
failed to achieve last year - a formula whereby matches in
the second half of the season use papers set by different
setters from those that set in the same matches in the first
half of the season. Roddy's also programmed his list so that where 2 teams share a home venue (Ethel & the Charabancs and the Pigs & Albert) they don't both play at home on any of the evenings. Many thanks, Roddy! |
