He’s got a note from his mum apparently, but surely this is an unfair advantage?

Ties are uncomfortable so not having to wear one is a big advantage IMO. With big money at stake, all the other players should be allowed notes from their mums as well.

Shocking.
How slovenly can he get? |

I've seen Tom Brake without a tie in the HoC.

I looked it up Torq and found this.....Maguire has special dispensation not to wear a tie during games as he has a doctor's note exempting him from having to put one on.
Speaking earlier in his career, the Scot snooker star said: "I played with a bow-tie for my first few years as a professional but developed a neck condition and that really put me off. |

Rules stipulate that players at the tournament must wear formal attire, consisting of smart shoes and trousers along with a collared shirt, waistcoat and bow tie.

Next it will be Royal Ascot with men wearing baseball caps!

Yeah, I knew that Boxy, but I reckon he’s just pulling a fast one because (like everyone else) he doesn’t like wearing a tie.
I don’t begrudge him though, just a bit of gamesmanship on his part.  |

Alex Higgins pulled the same stunt apparently.

I’d have to get a doctor’s note to wear shorts on account of my betty swollocks.

its just a daft rule, when you look at the stupid adverts for davesgarage.com
or weironanypants.com on their waistcoats. the tie rule is just a legacy from a different era. wearing a tie is smart, but doesnt have any part in the game. still, you wouldnt want them dressed like darts players, or sporting silly hairstyles like gary wilson... |

And before you know it they'll be wanting to appear nude.

By:
Imagine if they had to play naked like they do in ladies snooker!

Where do you keep the chalk?

In their cracks probably!
Fancy anyone in the boxing? |

I’m predicting AJ within 5 rounds, but admit that I don’t really have a clue on this one. It might just be wishful thinking on my part.
|
|
By:
It will be interesting to see if he can get revenge - playing anthems now.
|
|
By:
And you?
|
|
By:
Yep. Here we go. Good luck AJ.
|

By:
I've had a few quid on Ruiz as I thought he beat him fair and square last time and I can't see any real reason why Joshua will be able to reverse the result tonight.

By:
Well done, Torquemada.
|

By:
Thank you EK, but I don’t deserve any congratulations as I didn’t really have any clue on this one. I only bet s tenner for extra interest. I do think AJ is genuinely a great fighter though.
Commiserations on your bet mate - hope it was only a small one. |
