That's it then, pretty much the final table. Silo Graham has despatched the trophies, with the name V.Calenti engraved as runner-up.
Any Snat cash tonight, though, and I'm gonna be down the jewellers tomorrow getting it re-done.
Tonight should be fun.
iv'eHaven't decided whether I'm going yet though...

FYP

[Drain Alien]

[ ] Yeah, Chompy sure is staying @ home tonight.

[Snatiramas]

So this is it.
Celtic plays and I don't. Celtic needs 8th or better
I play and Celtic doesn't. I need eighth or better.
We both play I need to score one more point than Celtic.

If the league didn't exist would I play regardless. Yes
Do I care about finishing second. Yes (look I know it is pathetic but I really do. I just never give up)
Could I really turn up and not play? No idea but we are about to find out.

Will Xpressman turn up and get out of the bottom three
But the main event, the thing it has all boiled down to is, who gets to wear the clown suit. I am so looking forward to this evening. Thank you Chompy for starting this. I really didn't think it could possibly have lasted but it has not only lasted but thrived under your careful stewardship. Brilliant. Well done you.

[Laxie]

This has been one of my favourite threads to read throughout the year, despite having nothing to do with the league.  Well done to the lot of you for such great banter and good luck tonight.  Abso gutted to be missing the fun over the next couple of days at the G.

[Claw75]

[ ] Yeah, Chompy sure is staying @ home tonight.

nah, I think he'll go actually drainy

[Drain Alien]

[ ] Yeah, Chompy sure is staying @ home tonight.

nah, I think he'll go actually drainy

[ x ] He sure will

[Claw75]

[ ] Yeah, Chompy sure is staying @ home tonight.

nah, I think he'll go actually drainy

[ x ] He sure will

lol - dunno if I'm being levelled now

[tikay]

[  ] You might be.

[celtic]

[X] You sure are

And so it has come to pass..... inevitable really that it should go to the last tourney on the last day....

Through a mixture of circumstance and tactic i have sat on my lead for December and rode the wave of advantage down the home stretch.

Now through a gargantuan effort  ( and a huge amount of placement fixing ) Chompy has positioned himself within unlikely striking distance...

I cannot be present tonight..and i am sure news ( mainly false ) will filter from the front line throughtout the night and I will have to sweat the result from the bench.

The battle has been titanic and swung from extreme to extreme...but tonight...the final blow will be struck....

Those that are about to become Clowns... I salute you...

P.S.  fifty quid for anyone who burns Chompys arse....

[Sighmuns]

Might have left this slightly late, but does anyone want a last longer for tonight?

I'm stuck at work, but want some action. Can offer me you vs whoever or someone vs you and i'll consider.

[Simon Galloway]

Early reports from the G are that Chompy is already at the G and was seen standing dangerously close to an unsupervised chip rack of 5k chips...

Chompy is the master.

[Claw75]

gotta involve Chompy imo

[Lucky]

So this is it.

Could I really turn up and not play? No idea but we are about to find out.

Could be an interesting catch 22.

You want him to play to make it worth you playing, but equally he needs you to play to make it worth him playing.

Who'll crack first I wonder?

[Chompy]

No last longer for me tonight Greg Sighmuns, I need to go for top three-age, so could be gone early.

Even if I wasn't playing I'd turn up to watch the Celtic v Snat pre-tournament strutting. Will be like watching a sumo match, the pair eyeing each other at the poker desk, throwing salt and thigh slapping. Making out they're about to buy in, but then pulling out at the last second.
