Much more balanced comp. I can see a few UK guys having the potential to do well at it this time. Along the same lines as Chris, would Ken be excluded having done Europes?

Again, I think it a bit unjust to "punish" Ken & Chris for their national qualifier success, when, by their own admission, they aren't up to "pro" standard as yet

Thor had won a national title before he did the Arnold Am hadn't he?

I think we may be making more of an issue of it, than it actually is. ie. they dont give a f**k who does Ams unless your a "name"

I certainly hope there is no barrier, and I am of course hoping that we have 2 Scots at the Arnold

Please call me Evan ................Eden is a typo Member 3189, 396 posts SQ 230, BP 150, DL 250 630.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	Can't wait to watch this, round the corner from my house. If anyone is looking for B and B's or places to park close to the event ect (the green area and most of station road where the even is, is usually closed off), I can put some numbers up for local pubs that have rooms, hotels ect if anyone needs them?
