    My fellow Orfordites,

    Having just moved home and not having the internet till next week (I know, I'm getting the shakes just thinking about it)  I'm having to grab the chance to get on the forum whenever I can. But have no fear, your leader is with you all the way tonight.

    I have read all the posts on TKO today and there is one overriding theme in Team Tikay's messages: fear.

    They are scared of Velocity, scared of their fragile lead, scared of the forfeit for their esteemed leader, but mostly- scared of us.

    They know that last week was a lucky blip and now the full force of the youth team is going to cane their sorry behinds.

    "You can't win anything with kids" said Alan Hansen famously, before those very kids- Beckham, Scholes and Giggs went on to own football.

    Well, you can win things with kids. And we will.

    Compare and contrast our team line-ups for tonight:


    TEAM ORFORD






    TEAM TIKAY




    With 500 players, I have elected to go for a 4-4-492 formation. Tactics? Outlast the sit-outs. The rest is up to you. My team members are skilled enough to know their way through the pitfalls of the Velocity.

    This week, I want a final table with 6 Orfordites on it and THEN let's see if the Tikayers can fiddle the figures the next day!

    As for their leader, he got it easy last week- sat on a table of absentees for the first half, and then with 5 of his mates for the second half.

    Harrass him, bully him, impede him at every turn. If he's on a table full of toadies then get in the chatbox and make sure no-one gives him a walk...again.

    I know you will all make me proud tonight. Whatever happens, show NO mercy. We must level the scores or die trying!

    Remember, they may take our chips...but they will never take our freedom!!!!

    But I will harrass Compo at every opportunity.

    "....Tactics? Outlast the sit-outs...."

    Way to go Richy Boy, aim high, try & outlast the Sit-Outs.

    "....With 500 players, I have elected to go for a 4-4-492 formation..."

    Now, as it happens, I lolled hard at that. You are doo-doo at poker, but you write funny stuff, I'll give you that.

    You may continue, & it's good of you to at last make an appearance.

    Hi Mr Orford,
    Just one slight note to help you in further motivational speeches. The use of the Braveheart speech is sheer genius.


    You do know that He,as their leader, sadly said goodbye not only to his chips but his head arms and legs that were sent to the four corners of the land, and his army were totally defeated, trudging back to their homeland. to be ruled over by the foreign leader for infinitum.
    Hope this helps.

    'I AM 1 well aware, soldiers, that words can not inspire courage; and that a spiritless army can not be rendered active, or a timid army valiant, by the speech of its commander. Whatever courage is in the heart of a man, whether from nature or from habit, so much will be shown by him in the field; and on him whom neither glory nor danger can move, exhortation is bestowed in vain; for the terror in his brest stops his ears.'

    Cailine 62BC

    Stirring words I think which I think us Orfordites should heed, unfortunately Cailine's army was massacred and Cailine himself lost his life to the Roman army but by all accounts it was a good effort.

    Hmmm think I've just posted a negative for my application as deputy and unfortunately I can't make it tonight as I'm going shopping with me mum - I mean i'm going to play football with a group of rough blokes. May get to play a few hands if not blinded out

    Oh, I have been discovered ....... signed up as an ordfordite but didn't realise you had to be below a certain age!

    I will become the token oldie but must admit after cashing last week this tourny does not suit my style - having a quick 40 winks for the 1st hour tends to take all your chips.

    OK sorted have a can of blue cow and a bottle of akdov that should do it.

    good luck everyone.

    Speech? That was no Speech

    That was just an intro by our great leader - The speech comes tomorrow after we take down leg 2.

    Keep it going Rich - I made it into the money for you last week but will do even greater things this time.

    Victory is ours.

    I see your great leader lead by example and only beat about 500 before he bit the dust.
    Tikay lasted the longest again but that was no surprise at all.
