As one door shuts, another door opens.
The month-long Olympic Open Championship has nearly reached its dramatic conclusion. A four week tournament spanning four nations and we still await the winner to be crowned in Poland. On June 1 we will see who emerges Champion but as soon as that happens, we will be expected to starting offering full-throated backing to one of the nations in Euro 2008.
It is not easy following competitions, unless, of course, you are from one of the UK nations. In that case, get ready to kick-back, drink some beer and play some poker!
You may as well continue to follow the news on Eyebrows as it might help offset the pain of failing to qualify for this summer’s ready meal of football. You will no doubt be delighted to read that Estonian Tom Zablockik won the Lithuanian leg of the Olympic Open and snapped up €7,543. Ok, ok, it is not a triumph for the UK but you better get used to that, right kids?
Given that field for the final leg in Poland (currently taking place at the Casino Sunrise Warsaw) contains no UK entrants, we are hoping that when the results are published, a further reminder of your nation’s inadequacy will catapult you from the couch and we’ll see June ablaze with the trails of Britain’s finest poker players.
Failing that, we hear you have a great chance in next year’s Eurovision Song Contest.
Just ask Terry Wogan.
