I would agree with JC and Kenders also. Not a problem with a specially arranged comp, USA vs. UK or something else like that, or even at st ives, dragons etc but for it to be done at a national title could over shadow the title itself.

One could say it'd be quite deflating? You become ESM, yet are owned on every event by someone else, and in your moment of glory, you get just a minor mention as everyone salivates over the beastly American who OWNED all the Brits?


I can totally see your point, and if I was the competitor beaten despite winning I would feel the same, I suppose it depends whether you want to focus the argument on a winning competitors feelings or the development of the sport in general though

Indeed mate, although I'd question how 'developmental' to the sport in Britain a possible one off only appearance by an international, would be

I'd go to far as to say a US v UK event at u90 or u105 level would be awesome

It's been said, but UK vs US at the end of the year, or biennial if the cost was too high.

The u90 calendar then is regionals - ESM - BSM - UKvUS.

Seems a natural progression and solution (monies/sponsorship permitting).

Brandon if you came down to ESM you could stay in morecambe, me hixxy ben and kenny live there (2 mins from location of ESM u90) you could come for a few training session etc, would be cool to see a yanky beast!!!

Brandon, if you are hetrosexual, do not take this man up on his offer

His house consists of only a few things; copious amounts of KY, extensive gay porn selection and gimp suits.......he would leave you in no fit state for the comp Grin

I agree with mike .... nothing bad can come of a guest lifter at any comp and if he is awsome ..and im pretty sure brandon will be ..we can all be thankfull he aint scoring points !!

lol..ESm is the best comp as its indoors so i can understand why that would be targeted but the dragons 3 (boar v pagan : the decider) would also be a superb comp for brandon to compete in ..
