Tuesday 28th June Spoilers

Post by Douglas Wilson »

Andrew 'Drew' Haliburton is slowly but surely getting more comfortable in the Champions' Chair, can he make it a hat trick of victories today?

I'll bet you a million pounds that he isn't :!:

EDIT: I believe Andrew's challenger is a Magnus Mackereth, that's using the logic of the team photo that has been posted on Facebook. :geek:

You do realise that this forum now has a written record of this bet and Ryan could take you to the cleaners if he's right?
Mike Brown: "Round 12: T N R S A E I G U

Another niner for Adam and yet another century. Well done, that man."

Strictly, he hasn't accepted it yet. You better get him back on here quick, to make it official.

All the more confusing considering that none of the people in that photo look similar to James Nguyen's Apterous avatar....

Am I the only one who is lost here :?: :? :?: :?

Ah, but that's the beauty of it...James Nguyen is fictitious, profile picture, facebook profile included. He is the creation of Chris Maudsley and Dale Levell. Oh, and Daniel Pati.

Yeah, he was probably high when he recorded or "baked" as it is known to the in-crowd.

Who told you Nguyen was on today? Maybe he's just going easy on him in the first part.

I have to say that Michael "I'm rubbish at spelling" Vaughan hasn't exactly lit the place up. But at least he's not Jon Gaunt. You might think that they'd pick someone who was entertaining and/or good at words.

BTW, did DC declare "only sixes" and give PREMISE? Also, didn't Magnus declare 7 for STEALING in the first round?
