  1. I liked Tony.
  2. That's very sad Mr B. You have kept that one in your inbox until now. It took Murray so long that the original poster has long gone and is no doubt not reading. I note TLS says resurrect "next year" but he said it in 2009, so you may be out of time. Well done Andy though!
  3. if you add Spencer on to that, just once, you are in trouble Declan.
  4. That's right Silverfox - you've got it. :)
  5. "Team" GB is not a team event? I'm confused.
  6. I am a big fan of easyjet - you get what you pay for and you follow their rules - if you don't, you have to pay a bit more.

Yes - thats why I said he's more likely to end up in a team with 3 English payers, being Donald, Westwood and either Rose/Poulter if he goes the GB route. I'm not sure he'd necessarily want that. I'm a step ahead of you Declan, as usual. ;-) I stick to my original view that I think he'll end up plumping for Ireland, unless his mate Gmac is likely to also make the GB team.

As you are changing the booking, you pay a ?35 fee for changing and you pay the current price of the flight, less a deduction for the price you previously paid for that flight. Changing a name is cancelling the previous booking for person A and making a new booking for person B. You can't just swop flights from one person to another.
  9. McIlroy has put talk of who he would represent at the Rio Olympics on the backburner as he looks to continue his stunning run of form. The two-time major winner lifted the BMW Championship in Carmel on Sunday night - his second successive PGA title - but woke up to some stories about a supposed dispute over who he would turn out for when golf gains Olympic status in 2016. Quotes attributed to the County Down-born 23-year-old said he felt "more British than Irish", suggesting he would look to be a part of the all-conquering Team GB in Brazil. But McIlroy took to his official Twitter feed on Monday night to deliver a statement which said he had made no such decisions and was purely concentrating on golf. "I am in an extremely sensitive and difficult position and I conveyed as much in a recent newspaper interview," he wrote. "I am a proud product of Irish golf and the Golfing Union of Ireland. I am also a proud Ulsterman who grew up in Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom. That is my background and always will be. "I receive great support from both Irish and British fans alike and it is greatly appreciated." Golf will be making its Games debut in Rio and although still some time away, a number of players have already been asked for their thoughts on it, but with a Ryder Cup less than three weeks away, world number one McIlroy is not entertaining talk of it, or of who he will be playing for when the time comes. "I wish to clarify I have absolutely not made a decision regarding my participation on the next Olympics," he added. "On a personal level, playing in the Olympics would be a huge honour. However, the Games in Rio are four years away and I certainly won't be making any decisions with regard to participation any time soon. "My focus right now is on being the best player I can be, trying to win major championships and contributing to what will hopefully be a victorious Ryder Cup side."
  10. Getting dressed and going back downstairs!
  11. It's his choice. He is I think from a family of mixed religion, so no clear indication there and so he really is going to find it difficult to choose. I don't think his choice will actuallly upset anyone. If he chooses GB he might get to play with Gmac, but more realistically 3 English players. If that is likely to happen he may be swayed towards Ireland, if Gmac does not get picked for GB.
  12. That's normal for any change of booking.
  13. I saw it actuallly and it was good, but the tie breakers tell a story in that the normal 12 games cannot settle the set. That because they keep knocking it back to each other waiting for unforced errors. But enough of that. Come on Andy. You can win this.
  14. Does anyone else find men's tennis boring? Monotonous returns down the middle of the court for hours on end ? Federer is the honourable exception. I'm going to bed.
  15. "Glorious......." Maskell
  16. Its not far from Youghal

  18. Rory has won $3 million in two weekends. If he wins the next one in two weeks time, he will win another 1.5, plus the 10m FedEx bonus.

  20. Rory leads by one after 12. Playing very comfortably but no room for errors. Have had a small hedge on mickelson and westwood, just enough to cover my Rory exposure.

I struggle to see its USP. It seems its just a pub.
  22. 4 tied at -17. But it's Westwood who is the form player today.
  23. When the stakes are high Quids it would be mad not to hedge a little.
  24. Glad I did not put the house on the Cats.
  25. To win Declan. But you can take some profit before the end or hedge your bets by backing other possible winners.
