Hunter, so Simon did not back your executive decision. Be like the British Ambassador to Washington and resign. You do not need the Ferraro Rocher chocolates in any case.

In a statement today Simon said, "I have every confidence in Hunter"

.... perhaps the second half on the sentence was unprintable "... to .....
Dishonour before defeat!

We have 2 lists in as of today ......
Dishonour before defeat!

Hunter

You are a cruel bunch although I am sure you are set to offer much mercy to this lowly ranker at the basho.

HH
Not only a lower ranker but a deluded lower ranker. Pity and mercy are sentiments you are unlikely to hear.

Complete this sentence;

"I have every confidence in Hunter ......... "

I have every confidence in Hunter for the rest of the season ...... well at least until the transfer window"

I have confidence in Hunter even although he knicked my army list for Britcon

Hunter

That's 2 lists in folks - both from different books. What diversity!
HH
Dishonour before defeat!

Hunter

Top ten-ners in the rankings that have thrown their hats in the ring for Britcon so far are

Jason Broomer           2   Reigate
Laurence Donohoe   3   Bournemouth
Richard Jeffrey-Cook   5   Farnborough
Nicholas Gaukroger   6   Reigate
Raymond Duggins   8   Reigate

What order will we see these names on the podium come Sunday 11th August?  Or will a dark horse from lower down the rankings - but inside the top 25 - sneak in there somewhere?

Good luck to the top players as well as the unfancied low rankers who are never the less deserving of mercy at the basho.

Hunter
Dishonour before defeat!

Hunter

Could it be an unprecedented Reigate 1-2-3?  Now there's a thought ........
Dishonour before defeat!

rayfredjohn

Don't forget Hunter who should be anywhere between 4 and 6 in rankings and John who should be around 7 or 8.

Bookies love it when they have ringers like you two in the race.

marshalney2000

Hunter and I are far too modest to be amongst the luminaries.

rayfredjohn

Britcon 2017 23 players
Britcon 2018 22 players

It would be a real shame if we had less this year

Hunter

21 is bloody good considering a fair few will have shot their bolt in competing at Skulls a wee whiley ago Rayman.

The 38 we had at Skulls was a phenonononomon.

Never mind the quantity though - its the quality that counts.   1/2 of the world's top ten scrapping it out for just 3 podium places whilst dispensing mercy to the lowly ranked hingers oan.

My early take on the top 3 .....

1. Ray
2. Jason
3. John

..... you heard it here first.
Dishonour before defeat!
