Who wants to put the pride back into the 3 lions !!
« on: March 22, 2011, 21:46:27 PM »
To all englishmen out there it is time to get back to the top of the tree where we belong !
I with great pride am made up to be captain of the B team and am so going to love wearing the 3 lions, face it i am too old and fat now to do it for any physical sport ;)
Have spoke with Jack about selection for the A and B team so whoever wants in pm myself and jack with why etc and we will pick our teams as quickly as possible so you can sort out days off etc. Please as many applicants as possible Bri said applicants were slim last year so would like as many as we can to select what we feel is the best team !
I know its going to be a tough task and i wish i could pick 10 team mates for the amount of good englishmen there are out there.
I will say from the start i am planning on picking myself to play (sorry all but have been dying to play one of these since they started ) But i need 3 others and also maybe a non playing mascot /coach/ first reserve ?
I will also before team announced either message or phone all applicants to let them know if they in or out.
Probably forgot to put loads in here but am buzzing and expect mine and jacks inbox to be maxed out!

come on england !!!

Glad you are a captain steve, and even happier that you have picked yourself. Felt you have been v ul to be overlooked for previous England teams.

I can"t make this so dont have the chance to even put my hat in the ring

England FTW!!!

Firstly I"d like to echo Steve"s sentiments and try to at least match his enthusiasm!

I"ll wait until I see what the format of the event is before deciding for definite, but at this stage I"m thinking of taking up a non-playing role. I had the honour of representing APAT at the recent forum team event and would like as many others as possible to be able to feel the same sense of pride that I felt then.

As Steve says, we"ll try to get the teams sorted as soon as possible due to people needing to sort time off / hotels etc.

I"d encourage as many as possible to throw their hat in the ring. If you would like to represent your country at poker. Hang on, that"s worth repeating.

If you would like to represent your country at poker

send either me, Steve or both of us a pm or register your interest on this thread. I promise that EVERYONE will be considered (so long as they"re English :)). Obviously, we"ll have to disappoint a lot of people but if you don"t ask, you don"t get (as my mum used to say - mind you she also used to say "I want, never gets" which left young Jack somewhat confused). Even if you don"t feel you"re good enough, please try. Hell, if it was down to ability, I wouldn"t be posting this now.

Now let"s get ROOOAAARRRRING!!!!!!!!!

well done also on gettting picked as a skipper Jack.

I can"t think of anyone who would begrudge you a place on the team.

When I saw the list of skippers, I immediately thought "top bloke, good player, great choice" for all 8 players listed and just assumed they would all be playing.

Please reconsider
