Britain's Latest World Champion
Did he get recognition at the Sports Personality of the Year, has he signed a multi million pound sponsorship deal, no chance, it's all about the sport for this guy and this is what he put's it down to
'Hard work, training and lots of research into tactics, body language and basic psychology,"
and how did I hear about him, on a radio quiz show, hang you heads in shame Fleet Street.

Re: Britain's Latest World Champion
The worrying thing is, there were approximately 300 spectators - he must have a big family.

Scarily he looks like a little like Bruce Willis...

But hang on, is it a sport?
"It is. In how many hobbies do you compete against national champions from Australia, America and Norway? A hobby doesn't involve national pride.

I'm sure it was last Saturday's show. Who else would do Rock, Paper, Scissors on the RADIO!.
Perhaps we could start a 'Defend the indefensible' thread.
I like Colin Murray, just the right sort of idiot to present the show.

They must have mentioned it again because I am always a week behind with it due to work  , couldn't agree more about Colin Murray as well  , he is easily the weakest presenter yet
