    In chess, "e4" is
    the algebraic notation for the King's Pawn opening, which is the move of advancing the pawn in front of the king two squares forward. It is one of the most popular first moves and is used to control the center of the board, open lines for the queen and king's bishop to develop, and often leads to sharp and tactical games

    Thus P-K4

    I am calling a stewards enquiry on this.

    Can somebody give their opinion to try and put an end to this.

    I once roomed with a Scottish fan who had been to every League ground in Britain except Cowdenbeath.

    I saw them play Queens Park there, come half-time the bangers started to come in, and I'm not talking about the women!

    I have received a reply from my mate in Chesterfield who represents his county. He has said that both of us are right, although he did say that he can see the argument of @Smudger603 is flawed!

    Some years later he had a book published about the stadiums he'd visited. It was in Argentina, they made a fuss of him at La Boca. A 3 course meal no less. He went off to a racecourse one day. I didn’t know his name, everyone called him Nuts n Raisins because he took a sack of them, thinking food was expensive there- it wasn’t.

    F1, always a Hamilton fan but can't stand Ferrari. So for this season it's like you chaps having a brother you love play for Palace or Millwall. :emoticon-0138-think

    Anthony Joshua to fight You Tuber Jake Paul.

    It’s nothing but a money making racket, although it’s interesting to note that Joshua is only 1/10 in the betting tonight.

    In other words if you put £1000 on him , you can win £100.

    In any honest , non fixed contest, Joshua should be at least 1/33 <whistle>

    I've never rated AJ, but he is obviously one of the best dozen or so Boxers in the World.

    He will seriously pull his punches during this exhibition show, which should not be mistaken as a real fight at all.
    More like a Boxing eqiuivalent of WWE.
    If Joshua chooses to unleash on Jake Paul, he would undoubtedly kill the man.
    As in end his life.

    Joshua wouldn't want that on his conscience.
    His most difficult choice will be how to knock Paul out after more than 30 seconds (give the paying punters some entertainment) without putting the chump in hospital or a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Or putting him in a wooden casket.

    I agree with all you say, but it’s highly suspect that Joshua is such generous odds. I would not be surprised if AJ gets one last pay day bonanza to lose this fight.

    That would be the clearest evidence of how crooked the whole thing is for many a year.
    But anything is possible.
    Maybe any of us would be willing to play a clown and be laughed at if the purse was big enough (including the re-match and third 'decider').
    Unfortunately AJ is not Apollo Creed, and Paul is certainly not Rocky Balboa <laugh> :emoticon-0146-punch

    I'm mildly surprised that betting is even being allowed on this event.
    Brings the noble art of having a flutter into disrepute.

    I'm not a betting man, so to me that's like looking at those paper rolls with holes punched in them that came out of 1960's computers. :emoticon-0138-think
