    OK. I'll give you that one 'Notcho'. <laugh><cheers>

    But aye, the game (and football) needs proper characters with a bit about them. The Cantonas and Mourinhos etc.. we need a bit of banter

    These lads are playing the most unorthodox drives btw. Their feet are all over shop to get a fee extra yards of power.

    There's a few characters in the European group, Fleetwood and Rahm for example, the Americans seem to have come off an assembly line. Same bland media safe personality but this one's good at putting, this one's good at driving, this one chips well. Can't really warm to any of them.

    Incredibly boring golfer and I mean that as a compliment. Just does everything well. Making this ending very boring to watch as a contest but he's very good.

    Yeah he's on play it safe autopilot, best thing to do. As I said before I'm not a fan but the bloke has got some stones. Like any sport it's not really about talent it's about the will to win and he's got that.

    Just been drawn against a somewhat famous player in a club comp. Made me chuckle but then realised he is better than me. I wont name names, but I will try and slip in any daft question folk want me to ask.

    PGA Championship starts today. The 'worst' of the 4 majors for me but doesn't mean I won't watch all 4 days!

    McIlroy to win.

    Sounds like Scheffler acted like a typical celebrity, thinking the rules don’t apply to me. Then of course it’s not like our police to overreact. :emoticon-0136-giggl

    Its good to hear tho' some of these pricks think they above the law..a couple of hours in the slammer might make him a little more humble...but not holding my breath
