Johnathan, for my own peace of mind, please enlighten me to the relevance/meaning of that line re Steve Rabakoff?
I've seen him a couple of times at CPPS, and playing for the Sandbaggers with Ledz. I happened to have one of his old Avalanche jerseys, so when I saw him last time I gave it to him.

I've also seen Steve Rabakoff at CPPS, but when I did it was at least 2 or 3 years ago
That doesn't mean he hasn't been there since

That could just be a paintball businessman doing the rounds internationally

Johnathan ........ and there was me thinking it was a sarcastic reference to Rab as being a sure-fire candidate to take over the MS for RIchmond after I've mentioned Ainsley so many times .......
If that's true, you know well enough to come straight out with it rather than fuking about with oblique references ... hopefully I'm misguided on this one but either way, I still think AInsley is the perfect insert for such a position.

Honestly, I wasn't being sarcastic! When someone like Rab shows up at a UK event, you take notice!

I wanted to give him the jersey the first time I saw him, but didn't have it with me. I made sure I had it with me the following year.

He has turned out for the Baggers a couple of times at CPPS, and I think as a representative of GI when they sponsor the CPPS events. But it did occur to me he might report back to Richmond on how well Ainsley was running his show.

A second/third hand old jersey???
We gave him donuts ;-)
Oddly enough, it was a mint condition jersey that I offered for Leezo's charity auction on here.

The winning bidder in the auction didn't pay for it, so I gave it to Rab.

Johnathan, then please accept my apologies, I must be suffering from deep-set feelings of paranoia in my dotage.

However, I do appreciate your posts because at the very least they spark a response which needs to be clarified one way or the other.
I genuinely have no idea who Richmond might instil as the warden of the MS should he buy Steve/Laurent out but I know this much.
Anyone who possesses integrity, honesty and ability is gonna be a good bet to be considered as a prospect for taking over the MS then Ainsley is the man.
Richmond is the sort of guy who tends to stick with people he likes - he's inteligent and intuitive when it comes to assessing people's characters and he can spot a charlatan a mile off.
On this basis alone, I'd recommend Ainsley as the man for the plan !
