Starting Soon - Team Tipster Comp

excellent stuff glentoby, will you be captain?

I will ask the others undecided as still on heavy meds which are affecting my short term memory.

ud - for the pins we have Andrew, FCH, china castle & myself so far. Hopefully
GEORGE will also be on board shortly.

Hi undecided, and others, stewpot
has informed me about the revamped, one off team comp and I'm in. Thanks, dessie.

That's Hunty's two teams gone.

Oh ffs do some people have no principles?

Humbugs have 5 all from 2014 including shearer's identical twin. Will be trying to get other ex-Humbugs for the next few days,and then the press gang will be patrolling the forum

I am trying to get a full team of ex-Humbugs ud,but if the strays don't show up by Wed I will recruit from those who have registered an interest.
Could glentoby's lot be re-named The Feeler-Uppers please as they have already approached a Humbug

Good to see things coming together.

I can see this is going to be fun, welcome chavman, Platinum.

Aside.  Just wondering how I can contribute to your Tipster Contribution undecided as my Sports Trading has diminished somewhat, due to the obvious !!!  I would embrace Betfair and their controllers to embrace eGaming.  Apologies for the off-topic pitch.  But, GOOD LUCK, nonetheless.

Count me in Undecided. Thx.

Was in this before but happy to be in any team.

welcome exactaman and differentdrum.

Welcome back differentdrum, be great to have you in the Pins again.

I'm up for it, please add me to the ( pool of talent ) as available for selection if required.

Cheers

I make it 9 more required to make up 6 teams of 8, so thank you everyone for the great response so far.

" I am Free "

Go on then, count me in!

Found an email address for DFCIRONMAN so have dropped him a line about this.

Thanks, quite happy to return to the Pins if that's okay?

Hi Glasgow & Norfolk, welcome.

KC, thank you, hope he's ok.

differentdrum ok for the Pins!

Anybody in the "talent pool" whose dream is to play for the Humbugs resist other advances till Thurs when it's beginning to look as though there will be two places available in the Barcelona of the Team Comp.     

Has smirno asked for a transfer SS?

Absolutely not.
I am giving ex-Humbugs,who have disappeared,priority for the next couple of days.
smirnoff like the other Humbugs has a contract which would make Alexis Sanchez green with envy.

I've PM'd mackies-fc to let him know that the comp is starting again and to ask if he wants to be on the Pins' team again

Add me to the talent pool

George - thank you, hope he can make it.

ItsMeSwaddle - welcome.

E.W. Thieves team
stewpot (capt.), hong kong fooey, DeSSieReborn, motseel, petemac

Hi guys
I have given ex members time to log in
I will try and hang on to just one spare spot for one more day
I can understand you loyalists hanging on and hoping for ‘Phoenix Team’ membership
but in the meantime we are looking for a mix of experience and an opportunity to bring some new blood into the comp
So Hilly & exactaman you are more than welcome to join the Thieves and give it some balance
Despite the name we are not just E.W. followers quite happy to accept the good thing when necessary
History wise we have always been in the ‘Title Race’ and enjoy the Team aspect to the comp

Nice one George, we`ll have a full crew if mackies re-joins

Put me in UD

nice one Stu.

Stewpot thx be more than happy to join the "E.W.Thieves" who on paper look like a force to be reckoned with..

Welcome exactaman
they are a Force on looks alone, I resisted putting the mug shots up, I couldnt work out how to delete their Id nos

Exactaman we have a topic on Competitions Forum, feel free to use whenever you want

It's time for someone from the Pool of Talent to come forward and Captain a new team.

I think Cleeve Hill Mob will reform albeit half depleted, but I don't think Dunters Punters or Racing Demons are showing much signs of life.

So please someone take up the challenge, if you are new to the game please don't be daunted by heading up a team, if salmon and stewpot can do it then...

4 places left to make up 6 teams of 8.

I am reconsidering where I run the comp, if no-one objects I may go back to Your Competitions, most of the players signed up visit there anyway and it's the natural home for comps.

Good idea ud imo.

Hi all

Happy to rejoin the Lucky Pins if Captain Shane has a space for me.

If not I'm open to offers

Hi Undecided, happy to take part, if anyone will have me that is!

My preference would be for the thread to be on the horse racing forum, it would create more interest on here for the any future comps, just my opinion of course and happy to respect whatever you decide.

welcome Tiger Tiger.

decisions decisions

Just 2 spaces left, or 10, would be happy to add a 7th team if the demand is still there.

ttt

The expected (by me) fight for my signature has failed to materialize So I'm happy to Captain a new team. Once the team is filled with shrewdies, we can decide on a winning team name...."The Shrewdies" has nice ring to it.

undecided, please put my name forward if no one else is interested.

Carrot1960

how do you join

Whippin Piccadilly, that's great, you can head up a 7th team.

STATSMAN, carrot1960, jackboo, all welcome.

To all the newcomers who are unsure about how it all works, please keep an eye out, I will try to explain everything and guide you, but a good idea would be to visit the Your Competitions forum and check out the Team Tipster Comp threads from last time that have been brought back up for info. There's a selections thread and a News & Scores thread.

Welcome aboard Sontaran If anyone from the pool of talent would like to join me and Sontaran? We'd be happy to have you.

lockup is in the pool, so

1 spot remaining

and nocturnal, who would like to join you WP.

We have enough players now, thank you everyone.

Competition starts 9th August.

That's great news, Nocturnal is joining the team. He experienced a case of Seconditis at Goodwood this week with a number of his big priced selections hitting the crossbar. But as we all know, form is temporary, class is permanent. Welcome aboard, Nocturnal

I'd be happy to be in your team Whippin Piccadilly.

Happy to have you mate.

Happy to join if room.

You're more than welcome Swaddle. 3 places left.

Thanks WP ......Please,no mention of GGGGGooooo,can,t even say it

Be good to meet some new people,with plenty of banter and fun thrown in.

Greetings Platinum/Sontaran

I'm sure you will put it right at next years meeting.
Yeah, completely agree. None of us be going racing anytime soon so it will be good to chat about racing and whatnot with new people.

Enjoy your Sunday chaps.

Missed your post Itsmeswaddle ......greetings

Yup temperamental...

Pain in the arris but clear history once worked for me, i tried it again and it didnt.

Worth a try.

Sorry if thats really obvious and unhelpful.

hkf, we have all had this problem on and off, in the past I've closed all browser windows and tried logging in afresh.

Thanks IMS and UD ive passed that on to him.

Any room left at the Inn? I'm free.

Sorry, I've just remembered I might have a problem to commit next month

driver2, I can only put you in at 2nd reserve at this stage, we may well get a no-show or two next weekend so keep an eye out.

Thanks undecided, but I think our messages crossed. don't worry about me for the time being.

What is he using HKF safari

Dont know stewpot .He can read the forum but wont let him post.

maybe his mum can log in for him

or maybe hes social distanced from his amstrad 64

Should be fun

i want to be on a team that has their backs to the wall and finds strength in the face of adversity,churchillian spirit with magnanimity,resolution with humility and the will to sweep all before us.

like lee van cleef,horst bucholz,james coburn,steve mcqueen,yul brynner,brad dexter,james coburn...but well have another bloke...like ken from bros

Hi undecided and all the participants,good news and bad news to impart.16 hours in total spent between most of yesterday and 1 hour ago going through hoops and every neuroligical test known to humankind.The results which are not conclusive ruled out any permanent damage and suggest short term effect from the drug infusions and combination of those I was already taking!!!

The next hurdle is the 17th and hopefully the last infusion.Up to you guys what you think is the good/bad news element but just a note for striding and the team,Ricardo said not to get me to give any tips for at least 5 days post then.When I asked him "Will I be ok to bet2? He advised avoiding anything that involved vital decisions until my cerebral functions settled down.

I am particularly elated at these results as he also said "You may find yourself in an elevated euphoria for a short period and your cognizance may be heightened".

So up to you to decide good or bad?

Hi glentoby, I wish you well. There are wildcard selections available for your team until you are well enough to rejoin which I'm sure will be soon, take care.
