A last day rush sees us up to 17 now :

My good self. bobbruce, Gerrumonside ref. hindle xiii, MattSantos, DavidM, Hopie, George Watt, The Hallucinating Goose, Gomersall, John M, Maximus Decimus, Roy Boy, Tommygilf, Rage, Mumby Magic and Ullman.

I haven't bothered asking Ullman but I know he'll be up for it because it's free.

Free? Ullman invoiced me for a fiver! He said he was your right hand man and was looking after the money side of things.

Financially, I wouldn't trust him in a game of shove halfpenny...

"When I saw the Pistols and The Clash I realised it didn't seem that difficult, they didn't seem like they could play very well either, so the thing was to form a band then work it out. We didn't even know who was going to play what - we passed around all the instruments until we found what we were comfortable with. I wasn't comfortable with any of them so I became the singer."

We go back rather a long way, he knows anything I say he can take in jest...the greedy bleeder...

@Jim Prendle's lot fail to find any holes in the Swiss defence and the cuckoo-clock wielding hordes go absolutely Emmental.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Used to enjoy that.

Different RoyBoy mate, the one you saw has drawn Croatia.

Profuse apologies, been dragged kicking and screaming in to do some work today and forgot about the important things in life!, how are the mighty camels going?
