And that is why I shall start looking for a team at 10pm tomorrow, and submit it at 11.58 . Sorry Spade. I reckon Shapiro, Kuravylyov and Innis all going today has buggered up many a fine Cup shortlist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also added Joan Copeland and Lawrence Brooks that I had forgotten. If you haven't, make sure to choose another celebrity (I think they're is only @gcreptile who has to choose) to replace the one that has died ! Thank you, hope I didn't forget anyone I also had Durst would like to replace with Isabel Torres 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
