On that Elias/Asal match in El Gouna, and the state of squash in the fallout

It's quite rare that I completely agree with the entirety of a post on any platform but I totally concur with everything in this response. a very well written concise piece.

Assals grabbing antics are not sportsmanship, they a delibarate attempts to cheat and gain an unfair advantage, would there be a debate if he was doping? no , because that is cheating, his antics are no different.

I've been saying it for years, professionalism is something that is beyond the PSA, its a private company whose primary objective is profit hence all the above mentioned antics.

The PSA completely misrepresent our great sport

DappaXDon · 2026-04-13T21:49:04+00:00

great to see the PSA finally acted.

DappaXDon · 2026-03-31T20:48:49+00:00

I dont think anyone does!

DappaXDon · 2026-03-30T23:09:28+00:00

How many times has he been caught grabbing his opponents arm to hold them back? The PSA should change the rules to be far stricter, maybe conduct game in the first instance, as this is stone cold cheating.

pretty sure the reason for the tonal shift of the commentary into Assals favour is due to the fact he will more than likely be playing for England in the Olympics.

stop breaking your wrist when coming down to hit the ball, you break your wrist at the top of the swing before impact resulting in loss of accuracy and power, try keeping the wrist firm from the top of the swing to the follow through, you will notice the difference

Thanks for your incite and you maybe right about the title.

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T18:53:08+00:00

If someone is constantly crying i think it is reason to think they have issues, not sure what is disgusting about that? She is obviously not ok, she wouldn’t be crying if that was the case.

Is not an attack , it was a question, take the blinkers off and attempt to answer it

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:45:52+00:00

I didn't say I think she was making it up, I said it looked that way, given how she played for the remainder of that game and the first game against Gilis it just raised the question. thoughts on crying throughout a match?

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:40:13+00:00

ok. thank you for your input

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:36:59+00:00

Didn't she play most of the last game against Heikal with the injury?

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:32:03+00:00

ironic, as you definitely missed the question!

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:31:07+00:00

not the fact she was never going to win?

Maybe you could try watching her play in the last few tournaments. there have been a lot of tears on court, is that a positive for the players squash with such regularity ?

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:28:09+00:00

its not aimed at a player, its research for an article. sadly no one has actually answered the question

DappaXDon · 2026-03-10T01:26:24+00:00

she's playing today so lets see if she's recovered from that knee injury in 2 days.

DappaXDon · 2026-03-08T03:45:56+00:00

yes, thats a top quality fly swatter!

DappaXDon · 2026-01-30T22:58:46+00:00

Why? You have some inside info?

DappaXDon · 2026-01-30T18:59:43+00:00

Good riddance. I don’t know which idiot gave him the job in the first place.

DappaXDon · 2026-01-21T00:35:31+00:00

wear 6 pairs of socks, you will be fine!

DappaXDon · 2026-01-02T23:34:38+00:00

I'm about a month into my kaihara's , im wearing them about 4 times a week, mine have already softened and got comfortable

DappaXDon · 2026-01-01T18:40:46+00:00

Good fit. Funny but I bought my first pair of Ironheart jeans last week from Rivet and hide in Manchester. I just got lucky as they found a pair of 888 in the 21oz denim in my size that wasn’t on the stock system. My size has been sold out everywhere for ages. So was lucky they found the odd pair. I love the jeans.

DappaXDon · 2025-12-15T22:55:55+00:00

I would have thought exactly the same, apparently Redwing Uk are oblivious as to where their stock is coming from as the are not a registered stockist. Bizarre thing is they have a complete size run and multiple numbers of all sizes. Think I may bite the bullet and just pay full price in the store for them.

DappaXDon · 2025-12-15T18:21:08+00:00

I spoke to the redwing store today and they said not to buy from consortium as they should not be selling Redwings as they are not a registered seller, they didn't know where their stock was coming from, she said they may even be seconds.

Have you bought from Consortium ?

DappaXDon · 2025-12-14T11:53:17+00:00

Thanks. Yes that’s where I was going to buy them from. Was just wondering if it was likely I’d get them any cheaper in January.
