wtf this answering 40 to all the questions is kinda working

A few had your kind of policy too, I tried 31 the other day, didn't work too well but good for you. There'll be dancing in the streets and white sausage butties all round if you can bring this home

That sorted the men from the boys. A gimme for poker involved people like KD and Tighty and Arb to some extent (he definitely used to play).

A gap has opened up after Robbie in 5th - how's it gonna end, the suspense aint killing anyone

OK, so question 9. My chums and I often muse that a Polo Handicap is one's ticket to the world - add the length and width of a polo field together and give me the answer in Yards please.

Quite a few problems with visualisation amongst our entrants - a football pitch is say 110 x 50 or so yards, horses are big and fast so it's gonna be quite a bit bigger but how much bigger. Rubbish knew it was about 10 acres but struggled to convert, this into yards. Well, its 300m yards long and 160 yards wide and at the end Charles wins - answer is 460 yards.

Celtic came up with something like a snooker table size, little tiny horses, quite a few others went about footie pitch size.

Sustained, made you 257 away rather than 157 on the poker winnings, sorry about that and glad you were here to correct

So after 9 questions here we are. Ironside, one minute pause to check your score, you're doing well - will KD or Tighty reveal a hitherto unspottable weakness on the last question. Unlikely but we can travel in hope, keep it going robbiebox

This is the end. Beautiful friend the end.

And finally, one of the greatest annual events, someone asked what they would miss this year and on reflection I might put the TDF in No 1 if it doesn't take place - I'm not a keen cyclist or follower but I love the spectacle of the Tour, just like the Masters or Wimbledon.

So Q10 was about a true great and living legend - Peter Sagan has won the points classification of the Tour De France in 7 of the last 8 Tours, what was his points total for his latest win in 2019 ? 

I've watched the tour a lot and would have had no idea except he won - took him until stage 3 in last year's tour to claim the Green Jersey and of course it was never off his back after that.

Some WAGs (wild ass guesses) in this one

TdeF used to be my favourite sporting event of the year

i even own cycling manger games for about the past 10 years (including last year)

last 3 years just could't watch the tour as its all about hte best chemists now

so atleast this question i had a rough idea about

[nirvana]

Aah the answer you say - 316 points

[nirvana]

Ironside is Joint 3rd with Robbie, well done chaps, rubbish maintaining the overall good knowledge and scoring and should accrue some HOF points. Swingy last question so sorry to those from 6th down, hard to know whether to make questions guessy or something you might be able to work out.

KD and Tighty confirming the form with good all round knowledge and exceptional scores.

Thanks to the few that were here - main aim was to while away a couple of hours and so mission accomplished.

Cheers
