One more guess?
Ben, does this have anything to do with Oakey and a possible punishment?

It's about this Saturday and a rumour I've heard. I'd rather a journalist established the facts though. It will provoke a bit of discussion, but its hardly scoop of the century if I'm honest.
I've had a bad weekend. I had to go to casualty after putting my hand through through the living room door (well, a pane of glass). I was stroking the cat and it got pissed off with me, went to claw me, so I flung my hand back and lobbed it straight through the pane.
I got back last night and went out to the garage, lost my footing and fell down on the drive. Gashed all of my arm! Overall, a shit weekend so I'm entitled to my fun this morning

Okay - Micky Vann is the ref for Tackie vs Hatton.
All three German judges on the Reid vs Ottke.
Surely correct with one of them.

Sorry to laugh but that sounds more like a recruitng campaign - Home Carers for the Elderly -
"Poor old Ben has cut his hand feeding the cat and has had a nasty fall outside his house, his confidence has taken a real knock and he now no longer feels up to collecting his pension from the Post Office - can you help Ben lead a full and fulfilling existence? If so call this number and make an old man very happy".

No wonder Mariah was so keen to get him spliced!

Apologies for planting the seed but this is a good laugh. Some excellent guesses here. We need to get our resident journos, Bennie and James, on the case.
Lewis has retired?

Tackie's out. In comes Alan Bosworth. Remember where you heard it first.

Come on Stu, play fair. It's got to be something less obvious than that
![[icon_e_biggrin.gif] :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)
This is no time for hard facts

I guess that it's: Tackie is out and Pinto is in, but that's my "alleged" guess

ok here's my convoluted guess: Judah is going to vacate or be stripped after his next fight, the belt will be awarded to the Witter-Pinto winner and the winner of Hatton-Tackie will be ordered as the first defence...?

You know what Mr. Bassie that may not be a bad guess my friend, obviously you have been doing some educated thinking over this little teaser 8)

Thing is why would Mr Carey said he was shaking his head in disbelief - If Mr Bassie was correct I'd be chuffed.

Allegedly, Tackies out and Terry Marsh is coming back to fight Hatton in a clash of undefeated champions.

THis is my final call - it all makes sense from the little clues Lightsoot's been given.
1) "Not much of a scoop". Yeah as Steve said, hardly earth shattering
2) "Shake your heads with disbelief". Some would no doubt.
3) He's already caused the bloody ruck, "this would probably cause a discussion over here". I think it would too.
4)Just found out this weekend, well this is about the time they can be found if you ask the right people.
5) Lightsoot doesn't want to reveal this incase its not true, because it involve Hatton.
Thats got to be it. Pushing 60 posts on the ref!
