For some reason I didn't get any kind of notification or alert. I have accepted now though. Maybe it was with me changing my alert settings to avoid getting e-mail spam about things I don't care about. Or maybe I just somehow missed it.

Somerset Wyvern have a winning lead against Staffordshire, 9.5 - 4.5 in an 8 player match. Should we go on and challenge Gloucestershire immediately ?
Updated Round 3 is as follows;
Sussex vs Team Dorset or Team Hampshire
Gloucestershire vs Somerset Wyvern
Lancashire Lads and Lasses or Team Birmingham vs Team Bucks
Yorkshire Terriers vs Leinster
Leinster have also got a winning lead in our 2nd round match against Connacht. 9.5 - 5.5 in a 9 player match. I will send a challenge to Yorkshire Terriers and we can get the 3rd round match underway.
Can you not make the semi final draw now with the conditional results, like they do in FA Cup when it goes to replay? That way, as soon as the result is decided, the match can be started as both teams know who they will be playing.
Round 3: Gloucestershire vs Somerset Wyvern

Lancashire Lads & Lasses have now enough points to secure their win in R2 so I will send a challenge out to Team Bucks some time soon or they can feel free to send one to me (I don't have time right now)
Hi Glamdring27
I understand Team Bucks do not have an active admin so can you send one let me know the date and if no reply within 2 weeks then you will win by default.
I am trying to rebuild Team Bucks. I have taken over the original Team Bucks, not Team Bucks (new). I will send a challenge to Lancs, and hope to get a team out, (I won't play, just standing in until a new admin is found). Matt
Ok I will contact their admin
