There are also 6 names on your list, not 5. But who is counting?

 

Boof...As much as I would like to say, I think I should win the 2nd prize for the shitest guessing, I would like to recommend Soops for the prize, for this absolute belter...the post of the thread

Sorry Boof. I took your update about how many Santas were left to mean that the guesses up to that point were wrong 🙈

 

Sorry for confusion folks 🙈

 

Not a problem...maybe a pointer for next year's Santa-in-chief. Make sure updates are clear.

 

And just in case anyone's in doubt...Kalamazoo is still out

thanks for running the game boof. was there a smaller number of players this year as it has finished a lot earlier than i remember

Traditionally the game tends to end on Christmas Eve. It’s a shame that there was a distinct drop in players this year but it was fun nonetheless.

Fair play to Boof for running it this year. I couldn’t have done it.

Mr Lawson needs to play next year.

 

The book, ‘1966 and all that’ comes out next November, plenty time for our Uruguayan chum to find a phone that has a camera.

I was influenced by a shop called Argos I seen in Brussels a few weeks ago which had a window full of gimp masks including a doggy gimp!

[Boof]

I have knowingly only met, in real life, 3 out of the 31 players.

 

My fears of accusations of collusion were allayed when 2 of them were out in the first 4 - Dunks and Kalamazoo Jambo (have I mentioned he's oot?)

 

I didn't mention that during the game lest Dagger Is Back feel the need to nervously look over his shoulder

Does that mean you’ve met others while drunk but blocked it from your memory due to the horrendous experience it was when they made you read their present of Lieson’s book?

‘Did @iantjambo buy for @Morgan ?  I think he probably did as, statistically, the law of averages dictates that in a year with a 9 in it, which is really an upside down 6, he would be in pole position to accelerate somewhat dramatically into a podium position at least.

Talking of numbers with sixes in them, who recalls England’s greatest triumph whilst not ever playing a game outside of Wembley? Tactically, the Hun were far superior but the sheer tenacity of the Lilywhites won the day for old Blighty.

 

4-2 it was, hat-trick for Sir Geoff. Who of course, along with Bobby Moore and Martin Peters, played for West Ham.  Who are known as The Hammers.

 

Or, did @iantjambo buy for @sadj ?
