Hi Dave!

Smallman1 Millfield?

We used to turn them over year in, year out!

They’ve won the independent schools FA championship and appeared in the final a lot more than anyone.

Though tbf Ardingly have also won it 3 times which is still good.

Whitgift win the most tournaments prior to 6th form level, by which point a number of their pupils will have already turned professional and stopped playing for them.

Millfield are also way ahead of Ardingly in rugby (where Ardingly don’t register) , and seemingly cricket (though the cricket records are more difficult to find).

Plus Millfield was the most represented UK school at the London 2012 Olympic games. They’ve produced multiple Olympians “for every Games since 1956, making it the most prolific sporting talent factory on the schools circuit” (quote The Telegraph).

Forget about all that, do you know there’s a niche corner of the internet where construction workers cover Smallman’s neck in baked beans and take pictures?

A lol for SD!

Millfield is the defacto number one school for producing the best sporting talent, and Oxford university is a world leading university educating the brightest prospects of the future, none of which Ed was ever a student at, it would appear.

We have a genuine Walter Mitty on the board

Smallman1

hugopal

bosstrabs almost as many people as those who have ever asked the question “Did you attend the world famous Brookes College, Oxford?”!

Smallman1

A first ever lol for Hugo.

And Dave can have a lol too!

Amps

Mad_Cyril Hotchkin such a good course, no margin for error. And good for a chuckle when someone disappears into a massive bunker for a while!

It’s an odd one, bunkers fuckin everywhere, and they’re deep as fuck, but, they don’t have vertical faces and as such, it’s not as hard as somewhere like say Turnberry. I went in six or seven but managed to get out of each one first time. Even hitting greens from fairway bunkers. Tons of fun though.

Amps Tons of fun though

Yep. I’m thinking of the bomb craters on a couple of the Par 3’s, doable if your trekkers is OK but see a lot of people trying to lift it out because of the depth - usually for some time!

Smallman1

What handicap are you Amps?

SM001

Smallman1 Full blown.

Smallman1 Lol

Proof that not all handicaps are visible.

Lol!

Cankles-McJeggings

Must say finding it a bit rich dipper fans complaining about the Hillsborough songs being sung about them when they’ve spent decades singing about Munich to scum fans. In the same way it’s a bit rich about scum fans complaining about Munich taunts from Leeds when they go out of their way to hold up banners like this in the away end at Elland.

bosstrabs

Cankles-McJeggings I can’t speak for the United-Leeds interactions, but with Liverpool-United I think it’s more that the official relations between the clubs show respect for Hillsborough and Munich and about 95% of both fans do, and then there’s about 5% on each side who come out with the chants and are roundly complained about.
