OK, I'm shattered after a fantastic weekend (seriously so much thanks to everyone who travelled to England for this event - just, well, wow)

Tomorrow (after sleep I'll try and post the video of the awards, but in the meantime here's a link to all the results:

Moved to this forum, cause probably some discussion will start now!

What are .snp files? I can't open them!

Just read the line under the three result entries: it says that you have to download a MS snapshot viewer.

Honestly, I haven't bc I'm reluctant to install any MS software beyond the neccessary stuff as I have made the nasty experience not being able to uninstall MS software afterwards (MS media player 8.0 anyone?)

1st - Italy
2nd - Spain
3rd - England
4th - Denmark
5th - Germany
6th - France
7th - Austria
8th - Netherlands

Great tourney once again.
Some comments from an England POV...

We had an awful first day, losing all our games vs. Italy, Spain & Germany. This was probably due in no small part to the night before - pints of murphys for 50p...

Anyway, overnight we were 6th place and new we'd have to do something a bit special to restore pride. Game 4 vs the Netherlands and we won 7-1. Predictably I was the only person to lose

Game 5 vs the Danish. IMO the most improved team since last year. From the guys I talked to they were all good blokes and they gave us a bloody good run for our money. In the end we won fairly narrowly.
Game 6 vs the Austrians. Their first Eurobowl

At one stage we were looking like we'd get 2.5 points (two wins, 1 draw) but somehow we pulled it out the bag and ended up winning 5.5 to 2.5, snatching 3rd place and retaining pride.

Overall I finished 3-0-3 and it kinda proved to me that the era of the AG team is over... it's all gone bashy now...

Looking forward to Italy in 2006. Mamma mia.... Rigatoni!

7-1 versus Oranje!

Redfang has some serious explaining to do!

Grats to all the Italians and of course...to the Spanish Team who reaches a really good 2nd place.

Hope to the ST wins next year

oh yes he does mate... just goes to show that thrashing Belgium is not good practise for a proper tourney..

Eh, Redfang was NOT part of that team. Maybe that's where the problem lies!? (Nor was Dave, Lucy, Norse.....

)

must admit the danes came up to me after and thought they were 5th

I am sure geoff will comfirm later on, sorry if there was a mistake, thankfully it wouldn't have affected any prizes.

Thanks again all who came, had a great time.

Just hope Gorbad puts his wooden spoon somewhere for all to see, I know how much he wanted it.
