    Common sense solution, Paddy.

    The problem is that we are probably dealing with an organisation that would probably need a dozen committee meetings, a focus group and a sub committee to work that one out, only for the chairman to pour cold water on it after everyone else had been persuaded to go for it. :patsch



    I looked at Boxrec, it's a Matchroom show, any time we've got one in Scotland it's in conjunction with Tommy Gilmour and pretty well attended, I see that Barry Morrison is top of the bill and he's a Gilmour boxer. Maybe this one will get a better build up.

    Good knowledge man!

    It is a Gilmour event, my cousin is Mike Stanton and he's on the bill (Gilmour boxer). As far as I can gather there's already more tickets sold for this than there was for the ABAs.

    Again though, it's £30 a pop. I'll pay whatever to see my family but if I had no vested interest I'd think twice before paying that to see Morrison v Olesegun!

    That's the first time anyone's said that to me!! :lol:

    Good luck to your cousin, mate. Hope he makes the family proud :bbb

    Gilmour's son is running a show in Scotland the same night, not on tv though. Brawley and McArthur from the lightweight Prizefighters are joint top of the bill, not fighting each other, and a few of us plan to go so I'll Sky+ the Liverpool show & watch your cousin later.

    By the way, the MC on Friday was the guy who does all Gilmours stuff here in Scotland and we were chuffed to see him on the telly as we reckon that he's better than most of them. :good
