Anyone got the spine tingler from this months Ace mag? the quote is:
it's meant to be the red group and the gold group but we've actually got the red group and the Red Cross Group
hmmm.... tricky.

 Yep.. i love trying to figure out those things. But it's true.. tricky one this month.  I think it's saying that Switzerland are supposed to be in the Golden Group.. and their opponent in the Red Group.. but since the Swiss' flag is like a white cross on red, you get the Red Cross Group and the opponent (which is the Red Group)  i dunno.. maybe im totally wronge!  |

 this may sound stupid but can you buy ace magazine in the shops or do you have to subscribe for it? |

You have to sprint to smiths and then push all the guys out of the way that are reading the footie mags. When you've done that you have to get down on your hands and knees and rummage around the bottom shelf and if you're lucky you'll find one  |

When you've done that you have to get down on your hands and knees and rummage around the bottom shelf and if you're lucky you'll find one thats good! thanks for the help! however such an ace magazine shouldn't be put on the bottom shelf, tennis is just as good as footie, just not as popular! lol (sorry couldnt resist the cheesy ace bit, you might not be able to tell but my jokes are crap!) |

What are you supposed to do? Guess who said the quote? According to this Telegraph article it is "a player" referring to the stupid number of injuries at the Shanghai Masteres event. Obviously that doesn't help much though! |

I think that a player is saying that the gold group should actually be the red cross group (as in First Aid) because everyone keeps on getting injured.

Aww Annie!  There's not THAT much in the issue anyway... - a poster of Andy ( no offence to the mag but it's sooo plain ) - article on james blake - martina hingis story - quiz (very good actually.. spent a lot of time trying to solve it all) And just the usual. |
