    Haha "edited by Oldhand" all throughout the thread. I have to admit, it took me a fair bit of reading through the article to realise it was April Fools, I was really surprised by the "news" at first :D. Lucky I realised before I posted. But I still got fooled heh.

    Actually it's mainly because I suddenly remembered last year's (was it?) one about Badminton being taken out of the Olympics (which made me really angry by the way :p) that saved me.

    Nice work!

    It is Oldhand reliving his past glories 'in the image' of Zhao Jianhua?;)

    As I already emphasied 3 to 4 times,that wasnt my main point :rolleyes:. In real life, if one does that it implies too free no work to do and not serious in conducting business, which in itself has consequences ;);).

    hehehe..sis, your main point could be anything, i don't mind.
    April Fool isn't compulsory, yet among us, the online friends, it could be a way of expressing ourselves. Well, Oldhand's 'work' this year is cool. I am sure he has something else to do, yet i appreciated his 'effort', certainly.

    In Bangkok last night, a Thailand football official passed on some 'inside' news to me. I listened with a straight face when he said that Singapore has contracted a retired China player to play in 'some international badminton tournament' this year.

    Ha!
    It seems some people's calendars are stuck on the First of April :D
