There are four regulars. I have at least four possibilities in each category. I think Sean said he would decide when to call this a day. Maybe at the end of 2019 but this is one of my favourite pools. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I haven't changed my team anyway. Does this mean Book has to pick another dame for 1926? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
