Richardson & Spens results

Alan Tate Wrote:Is Olsen related to the Olsen twins?

Congratulations to Bon Accord on a deserved victory. Their colour strategy paid off and they were just more focused and determined on the day.

Afraid not (Olson not Olsen). Think the fact that we had never won before (most of our players this match scored as much or more than the whole team did last time we reached the final!) was a real rallying point for the whole team.

We were discussing Murad being the youngest to win it yesterday, which would be a great record for him.

Another (possible) record is, did I become the first player to win back to back Richardson cups with different teams?

Also, Hamish, I take objection to some of us being 4 years older than you! Myself and Daniel are 22, Jonny is 21.

Oops! For some reason I thought you were 23! In defence of my mathematical abilities, Andy Muir's post about Murads date of birth was posted while I was writing my post.

I think you are the 1st person to win back to back Richardson with different teams.
My 1992-94 Paisley team morphed into John Henderson's 1997-1998 Crowwood team (all winners) but there was a gap in 1995 (when both teams scratched) and 1996 (beaten by Poly)

Yep, PM me your e-mail address Alex and I'll send them across. Will be sending a copy to Willie Hulme too for the CS database.
