Isn't this missing the 'actually isn't going to row' option, hence why no one seems to be voting?

But John often says that and often still ends up in the crew, so we (Graham and I, after a few beers) thought we'd plan ahead.

Why does 'Cox' link through to C. Cox's photo page??

I know where bow 4, stern 4, middle 4, etc. are, but whereabouts in the boat does 'ironic 4' lie ?

bow 4 ;) it's ancient history (1999 2nd May boat). passed my by as well till I realized it was blackburn posting

The poll is clearly missing a vital option. last time he was in the boat he was working on taking over the 6 seat...

At least I didn't crab. Strokeside not a strong point

It's not meant to be part of a boat... it's the four seat, just that it would be "ironic" (in an Alanis Morrisette style) if John was at 4 as he's unlkely to be the biggest/heaviest person in the crew.

Perhaps it could be a race tactic - many novice boats would go just as fast attempting an ironic four as a power ten...

is this some attempt to remind us of poor Emma Easterbrook?
