[Torchiador]

Congratulations Andy! UK Champ again! how many times now? I think you are the one who has got more than anyone else!
Congrats also to all the friends attending the tournament and a strong welcome to Brendan to his first tournament and first point collected.
Camber confirms to be the Bronze man (same point with Chris btw!)
Pictures please!

However the best goal of the day was a perfectly struck (claiming victory in the dying seconds) gloriously magical lob launched by everyone's favourite player, Barrett.
Sorry Lee!

not sorry in the slightest, it was feckin awesome!

still bringing up bile about that one... and it was 'THE' last second! i didn't even get chance at a ko lob!!! ... off to the bathroom!

Thanks for a brilliant day! Loved it!

Congrats to Andy! He is unstoppable(bastard)!
Thanks to the organizers. Great venue, with nice water and coffee! Also Nice to meet a new face, Brendan. Come again. Very impressed with Cambers(my nemesis) performance on the day. Those lobs are brilliantly executed Especially the Barret one(Lee?? ) Thanks to everyone who showed up. I will come again next year if i can.

Great Saturday night, marred only by Robert Swift's insistence on walking 18.7 miles to find a damn curry house

Good day Sunday, awesome to meet you lot again, and the new faces.

I have some photos which I will upload when I can be arsed to take them off my phone (patience you must have).

Thanks for organising it, the free coffee was a mega-bonus

I'm missing information on some of the players, can someone help?

1. What is Brendan's last name?
2. Was that Robert Steels' first tournament?
3. Are John & Mark Vella the same people who played in the 2016 UK Champs?

Stop your whining, you tart! You're Lee W... that's a whole letter closer to Lee X than John V.

Geez, some people, eh?

Ha ha - April 1990 Kick Off Challenger in Zzap 64! I have you know! lol

Long time no post

Had my ass whooped - glad I drew one game!

Was a good day / laugh though and would always be up for a game (covid permitting) especially if in the North West - what with life / work commitments.

Just downloaded the new Championship version and had a bash - you think you are ok / half decent / can smash the computer - then I come up against you freaks of nature! That's a compliment!

Keep up the good work
