@Nick - when you play the ‘Bench Boost’ token, it means all your subs’ points count towards your weekly score for that week - so all 15 squad members contribute rather than the usual 11.

Your selected captain gets a x2 multiplier every week - that is uplifted to x3 (for that week) when you play the ‘Triple Captain’ token.

You used to get one of each token per season (plus the ‘Free Hit’ where you can select a whole new squad of 15 players for a week), but I think I read there are two of each token this season - possibly one pre-Christmas, and one after, but don’t quote me on that…

Look who woke early from their summer hibernation…

Bought mine in April, so just starting it’s journey…

Who cares about the PL…? League One is where it’s at! #LUTWIM @AdamJ

Cracking evening yesterday seeing The Black Keys at Alexandra Palace…overlooking the city (of London).

I’ll be watching…can’t see anyone getting close to Pog, but every other team in the peloton will be trying to outwit him and his team.

Don’t recall if I’ve mentioned this previously, but I was a ‘Games Maker’ for the road cycling events at the London Olympics back in 2012 - that was such an awesome experience. Still got the dumb ass uniform packed away in the garage.

Someone in this thread is 2/3 correct.

If that’s @AdamJ, I’m guessing that either the time, date or subject matter is not true!

@Mizmazzle - QFT my friend!

Despite Ticketmaster doing their utmost to screw up the sale, I’ve managed to get tickets for the Broncos at Jets game in London in October.
I’m 5 for 5 for home team losses when seeing games in the US (Mets, Phillies, Rays, Knicks & Nets), but I am 1 for 1 wins for games in the UK (Jets), so hoping that run continues! Sorry @Mizmazzle @mclaincausey !

Great scores @samd and @AdamJ

Yes, @AdamC - straight back in for next season please.

A must for your collection!

Kinda….

@EdH - congrats man!

Re your Pro Tip, mine and my wife’s social lives revolve almost exclusively around the people we met at the parenting/baby group, and our eldest is now 22yo!

However, be very careful if the partners meet up for coffee every week. All 6 of the ladies in our friendship group got pregnant with their second child within the same 12-month period!! Apparently they discuss things…‍️

Awesome - congrats.
I have a lesson on Saturday which needs to fix my my driver, as I’m playing a 7000yd course on Sunday! 🫣

Additional info, for when the time comes…I’ve done full measurements on the shirt 8 times so far!

Shoulder width has unsurprisingly remained unchanged, given a reasonable margin for (my) error.
The chest, waist and opening measurements have snugged up a few tenths under washing, but then eased back out to where they started (maybe a tenth or two over) after wear.
Sleeve has shortened maybe 0.5” through creasing (since new) but washing brings those creases out a little, and a few tenths are regained.
Biggest change is overall length which snugged up 0.75” through wear (creases and curl) and washing (cool, light spin - see earlier posts for details!).
I’ve deliberately been working the wrist snaps of late - which has resulted in a few extra tenths as well.

I really wish I could get a better photo of the fading….there’s hints in this photo, but they don’t do the shirt justice…

This is at 70 wears and 2 washes (mainly light duties mixed with a few exertions in the garden/garage).
For fear of repeating myself, anything hickory is just money, and this CPO is a piece of art - inside and out.

It feels heavier in the hand than my 33-OD and wears a little warmer too. It was a constant companion through late winter and much of spring (UK), and is very versatile in how to wear/pair. It deserves to be a great seller - there’s a reason the IHSH-07 has been around as long as it has….

How well did it go @Brock ? Or rather, how wet did it go?

Not forgotten I need to post photos…just ran out of time today, so it stayed in the stable, but will get to it tomorrow.

I’ll post some photos later @Fadez …not got quite the same level of wear recently due to purchase of 33-OD, and the warmer weather in the UK. No doubt though, this shirt is stellar…

Spent a few days in the Derbyshire Dales last week…

I started playing again last year, after a 15-ish year hiatus. New irons purchased, and just recently had my first lesson in about 25 years. I played last Friday (9-holes) and Saturday (18-holes) - would be an insult to my professional if I didn’t practice, right!?
