    No - that was a different chap, Donald.

    His name was Jack Ure, & I'm sorry to say, he passed away a few weeks ago.

    Here's Jack, in the world's greatest ever slowroll

    "Don't push my man Jack around, you go Jack"

    That was ESPN commentator Norman Chad at his very best, too.

    Yup - click the word "slowroll" in my Post.

    Proper slowroll, that.

    You're in trouble. I say, you're in trouble......

    New Plans for 100th birthday if i ever got there, would be to contact the Rio to announce my participation in the main event if  a suitably fine and with good views of the strip room could be made available for cheap as chips price and  then take the title !!!! simples 2072 will be my year.....honestly!!!!!!!
