    VAR actually showing it’s worth in the Burnley - Arsenal game. Overturning an abysmal ref decision.

    In the summer, I shot a 51 at the age of 51; no coverage or big deal made of that!

    It was a tough 9 hole course as well....

    Your post reminded me and Mrs Fats that we haven’t seen series 2 yet. Loved the first one; a really good approach for a different insight to what goes on.

    Only this week I shot -12 over 9 holes on the Wii machine but it still counts.
    I haven’t played real golf for years, the closest I get is using the driving range when I go to Spain.
    Used to enjoy my occasional games (every second Sunday) and still fondly remember the two rounds where I genuinely shot 78, on par 70 courses.
    I forget about the others that were nearer 100 than 70.

    Think a congrats are in order for Mr Steven Davis.

    Actually astonished that Gerrard has done a good job at Rangers, albeit assisted by a Celtic super implosion.

    It's a brilliant series, and really unlocks the personalities in F1. It's turned so many new people on to the sport. I love it.

    I play only a handful of rounds a year, probably 4 full ones if I’m lucky. Never break 100

    I do prefer 9 and in the last have managed to get in the 40s

    I’m due a game with Dave but not been able to get down there. Need to get him and Onionman on a round.

    Four golfers were in the pro shop and the pro golfer asked how their round had gone.
    Golfer 1. I had 7 riders.
    Golfer 2. I had 8 riders.
    Golfer 3. I had 10 riders.
    Golfer 4. I had 15 riders.
    The pro, looking puzzled said
    “I have been playing golf for 20 years and I thought I had heard all the golfing terms, but I have never heard the term “riders”. What does it mean?”

    The reply.
    A rider is when you hit a shot far enough to need to get on the buggy and ride to the ball.

    This is how to tackle a par 5 U shaped hole. Shame he ended in the rough.
    Pure beast.
