Oxford Or Cambridge? The Boat Race

[DTCwordfan]

Who are you backing and why?

Who will win?

[tonyav]

Who are the favourites, DT ?.

[jim360]

Cambridge, because of loyalty :).

[Tilly2]

Cambridge. My kinda town

[Baldric]

Or the alternative, (Tonyav to commentate!)

Cambridge. I have an irrational loathing of Oxford University.

Cambridge..'cos I was born there x

[atalanta]

Cambridge blue is a prettier colour than Oxford blue

[tonyav]

Ohhhh, thanks Baldric, get yer dosh on the long haired one.

[Baldric]

Everytime I look at the link I keep thinking 'Sunday Dinner!'

[DTCwordfan]

Oxford start favourites as they have 4 Blues in their boat - however Cambridge is heavier and that may count in the conditions today. The pundits are thinking that it will be close.

The Goat race, I like it.

I don't care who wins, the very fact that both have got to the final yet again just goes to show they must be the best two in the country:-)

[DTCwordfan]

Roast Swan for dinner tonight, Baldric?

We won't tell ER

[tonyav]

Hope the Cambridge boat doesn't sink then, DT.

[EcclesCake]

Having just remembered that I have some winnings in my William Hill account leftover from Ascot I have now wagered the lot on Cambridge winning.....almost certainly the death knell!

[Ken4155]

Oxford @ 2/7
Cambridge @ 13/5
Dead Heat @ 100/1

Betfred

[DTCwordfan]

Has done before - 1978 - the Captain got such grief - even in Scotland as he was there at my Uni Grad Ball, getting such gip for it.....

[DTCwordfan]

Boat sunk. Ken? The odds on that?

[tonyav]

Yes, I remember it ( sinking boat ), DT.

[DTCwordfan]

Maybe a roast swan dinner on Eccles then...bet she's got a few recipes tucked away. If she loses, it will be Dodo.

[Ken4155]

Not showing a price for boat sinking....................or a torpedo attack.
