Time to say "thank you" to........

FCHD.

He runs a WSOP thread every year, and this year was perhaps his best ever WSOP thread.
 
As well as reporting several times daily, he researched the tables of all the Sky Poker who made Day 2.

It was an immense body of work.

The thread is HERE

We don't really have the means to thank him properly, or enough, all we can do is offer him our thanks & a free MTT Entry, which we will do.

Barny, you are the best.

    One way we can all thank Barny is by spreading the word about his website, which is called Football Club History Database, which is, of course, where his alias FCHD comes from.

    Here you go;

    http://fchd.info/

    Just look at the A-Z indez - try "A" for example;

    http://fchd.info/indexa.htm

    An incredible body of work, & a 100% labour of love.

    Tell your mates please.

    Incidentally, I wrote to Barny to thank him, & said he could have an SPT seat (any SPT) if he wished. The problem is that he lives right down in deepest Cornwall, so travel costs - which I'm unable to help with - would be excessive.

    The thread is very good and one of the best on the site. In addition, what is really really useful is the table info he gives the sky guys out in Vegas. Not that I would know about it this year but for the guys that manage to make day 2 the days are very long and having the info on your table without having to spend time doing the research yourself is invaluable. 

    Thanks a lot Barny

    Stoke Shamblers, more like.

    More seriously, it's a fabulous website, & anyone with even a passing interest in Football - even Leeds Utd fans - can find stuff of interest in there.

    Are we sure the site accurate?

    Says Manchester City formed in 1894, but as we all know they don't have any 'istry.
