The only bending over I'll be doing is at the pool table, or sitting down as the opponent dishes. Lol [ This message was edited by: mal_clarke on 2008-01-04 13:02 ]

i think this is the best selection so far. Not sure anybody can really tell 100%, it is more than likely going to come down to a few results for both divisions. I haven't even predicted the Challenge as i dont know the standard of alot of the players. Liam Wilson will be a good bet to be challenging for promotion, not very well known but is a very decent player (and he is only 14 years old) On 2008-01-04 13:43 , cusack_147 Wrote:!!! QUOTE !!!

I think it is just too difficult to predict the Challenge Tour Top 8 as there are a lot of unknown players (especially to me who has only played a handful of events). One thing for sure is that there will be a handful of players not mentioned that will cause a few shocks and be up near the top.
On a personal note I am hoping to do well enough to retain my place for year 2, and improve my standard by playing the top players.
My Top 8 in Pro Division are (in alphabetical order):
Darren Appleton Karl Boyes Stephen Capaldi Pat Holtz Raj Hundal Imran Majid Daryl Peach Kevin Uzzell

Capaldi could well be a danger. I played him in Barnsley and he is a class act and a nice bloke. Think the Pro league will be great entertainment to watch too.

I think you can only really predict the pro's, as no one knows every player in the challenge. I reckon only 4 or 5 of the common names mentioned may do it. I am sure many players will surprise us all.
