If the football is getting us all down a bit this season, or if you're not doing too well at last man standing, or even the gambler's league I offer you a new sport. This is a sport that pushes the athlete to his or her physical and mental limits, where the winner takes all and the loser is a bellend. This is a sport where excitement and intrigue share the limelight, and where the bishop is regularly bashed.

I give you chess boxing

Get up! everybody's gonna move their feet
Get Down! everybody's gonna leave their seat

What the feck 

I really don't understand this, they have a punchup then play chess, I don't see how the boxing fits in unless you want to knock your opponent senseless so they feck up the chess, is that the aim?

I like the YouTube comment below:
This has to be the only professional sport league that survives just on people
saying "There is no feckin way this is real" 

First I heard about it was in an EasyJet magazine - I was convinced it was a spoof.

Matt McQueen - Liverpool 1892-1928.
Only professional to - play in goal (41 appearances), Defence, Midfield, Striker, and later be Director and then to be Manager (winning a Championship) - at one club
