This win was for Seve, one of the most passionate Europeans.

Did you forget to point out that the margin could have been even bigger if the USA team also consisted of twelve black men?

That must be the reason you won so many Ryder Cups before the rest of Europe
came in, Oh that's true , you didn't.

I wonder who would have won if Colsarts hadn't made a 62 on Friday.
I say well done to everyone in the team, all points were needed, and for
once I'm proud to be European.

How splendidly predictable is your desire to climb on any sentimental

No I meant what I said. Seve carried Europe through the Ryder Cup dark
days.

Hear Hear! But just for the record, THREE of the team came from
Northern Ireland. I doubt very much if they would be very pleased to
be referred to as "English"! British, certainly, but not English. And,
of course, in this case, Europeans is good also.

7.5 points from a population of 60 million

1 per 8 million


Far poorer than either Scotland or Northern Ireland.

England does not have 60 million people.
