Band of the Year 2006

[jjm]

I've updated the points for band of the year on the SBBA website. With only two qualifying contests to go, Fife and RAH, most of the titles are already sorted out.

In the Championship section the Co-op cannot be caught even if Kirkie win at RAH. Dalmellington are runaway, and worthy, winners in the 1st section. Barrhead cannot be caught in the 2nd section and win due to attending more contests then Scottish Champions City of Discovery. 3rd section is close but TR can only be denied if they finish last of the four 3rd section bands and Coalburn win the section. The 4th section is closest and with only Queensferry going to FCBA they should tie with Turrif on 18 points. Turriff will take the title though because of their higher placing at the Scottish.

Well done to all the bands for a fine years contesting. The presentations will be made at the Scottish Open contest in the Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow on November 26th.

Corrected because I'm stoopid

If Coalburn, Tullis, Buckhaven and dunfermline turn upto the fcba.
The lowest Points Tullis would recieve is 1 point.Add that to 40 = 41 points.

If coalburn were to come first , wouldn't they recieve 1 pont for turning up + 3 for beating the other 3 bands in their section+ 1 point for winning that =5points. Which would be an overall of 42points beating Tullis by 1point?

Please explain to me John, i'm easily confused mate.

Correct Tom. My bad. I had counted Dunfermline as 2nd section. Sorry.

I have corrected the post.

Do you want me to double check the other sections for you

Always happy to help.

It could of been worse, i mean you might of put it on the other Forums aswell

In all honesty you and Bruce are doing a good job, keep it up .

Yipee ;D
Looks like TR got band of the year for 3rd section.

45 points looks like a fantastic points tally for only 5 contests this year.
We will probably be beaten by the Scottish Co overall. With the RAH to come they can still pip us on points, with them on 44 points just now after 6 contests and 1 to come.

We have been hard pushed by Coalburn, who deservedly came 2nd to us.
Well done to them, I'm sure they will be up there at the Scottish again.
