The fact that Slow White did not play their final game on Sunday, is not an issue of bad etiquette as implied by Possum's e-mail. The team we were to play was Mythago, who we had already played Sunday morning. As both teams are from Bristol, we know each other quite well and the arrangement I came to with Chris (Mythago captain and as it happens (one of?) the TD(s)) was to our mutual satisfaction (I discussed the arrangement fully with my team, and I assume Chris did the same). I was under the impression that the result of our arrangement was the opening up of a pick-up slot against Mythago whereby some players from outside of Bristol might grab a little more pitch time for the money and effort which they had put into travelling to Bristol for the tournament. My bottom line to Chris was that if he definitely wanted to play us again then we would play - there was never a question of our leaving the tournament early without the accord of all parties concerned. The only people not consulted were any potential spectators, and I don't think that they would have been bothered about missing another game of Slow White throwing hammers into the ceiling!
