LOL @ Neil not taking my bet

It would have been very unsporting of me to take your bet Rob. You only had a 3 point lead at the time and I knew your guys needed more than that

Top updates from Caz & Ian & well done to the Irish team.

[APAT]

Thanks to everyone who participated in making the European Team Championship a huge success, played in a fantastic atmosphere.  I include the staff and management of Grosvenor Casino in Brighton who put a great deal into the running of the event.

Congratulations especially to Len Collin and his barnstorming Irish team.  They were the life and soul of the party and deserving winners amongst very tough competition throughout the weekend.  It was great to see so many players travelling from all over Europe for the event, and we expect this tournament will grow and grow.

Thanks also to Ian, Leigh and especially Caroline for a sterling contribution in running the updates. 

A complete set of pictures and a tournament report from the event will be published on Monday evening.  The video diary of the weekend will be published later in the week.  It contains some unmissable footage....  

So that"s a wrap for Season Two.  We hope to see you on the road again, from early in 2009.

Regards,

Des.

What a great weekend. Played in a fantastic spirit with very worthy winners.  Caz did a fantastic job with updates, and we mustn"t forget the rest of her team, Ian and Des.

Well played everyone.

Myself and the Scottish skipper are sitting in an internet cafe in Brighton with the biggest hangover of all time after spending a night with the mad irish and some locals.

Congrats again to Ireland and well done to Gordon and Phil for scoring all the points. (but I did put everyone off their game with my superb strategy!)

Can"t believe the English team wouldn"t take us on again in the cash game. However the blind all-in sit&go with the locals did prove profitable.

Congratulations to Ireland and well done to Micky, Phil, Gordon & Mary from all in Scotland. Excellent choices Stuart and hopefully we can go one better next year  

[HaworthBantam]

Congratulations to Ireland, The Mighty Scots and Germany for taking the places.

This event was one of the wildest, most enjoyable events I"ve been to - great banter and friendly rivalry.

Great work by Caz doing the forum updates and video updates with Des - not bad for somebody who was only wanting to watch the action and do a little socialising. I do hope Des posts some of the outakes, especially the final wrap up piece.  

Thanks to Leigh for helping out with the updates on day 2, it was getting a little frantic at times.

Just one thing for next year - the Scottish team (and myself) really need singing lessons, the impromptu rendition of "Flower of Scotland" was a little painful......  

[Maxriddles]

Final Positions and points are;


Scotland   51
England   26

Congratulations to Ireland, Scotland and Germany.

Well done to all those who participated  

Well done the Scottish team on an excellent second place and in bagging almost double the points of our neighbours in the south.

[Divitts.]

Sounds like it was a storming weekend. Well done the Irish for the win and Scotland for worthy runners up. Great updates you guys,well done.
