Colin Montgomerie has certainly got a grumpy potential vice-captain on his hands after Jose Maria Olazabal made the stunning revelation on Thursday that Monty had appointed him to the post without even asking the Spaniard if he wanted it. Anyone know the Spanish for "That's news to me, pal?" Such was Ollie's reaction to a series of questions on the subject at the Dubai Desert Classic, where he was in no mood to gloss over what he clearly feels is a terrible breach of protocol. "The only words Monty and I have spoken was when I got to the clubhouse on Wednesday and I congratulated him and he said: 'We need to talk,' and that was all," said Olazabal. You assume it is the vice-captaincy he wants to talk about? "I am not going to guess anything." He said he would like to invite you if you don't make the team? "He didn't say that to me." He said he already had. "Well, you know more than me."

The "Brew" has started !!!!!!

This is gonna get good!!!!

I think the R&A blew it out their collective bungs on this one.
Ollie feels jilted, and rightly so IMHO.
Monty either can't or won't keep his mouth shut and is bound to say something even more incredibly stupid.

Later,

And Lyle is still throwing himself on the pyre and a scarifice too.

Yea,,, should get "Real Good",, !!!!!!!

One of them "Will" slip out some type of comment,,,,,,,,

I'm thinking that by the time the Ryder Cup starts Monty may be standing alone if he isn't careful.

Later,

He will be lucky to be standing at this rate

I think Ollie can take him,,,,,,,

I don't know. Monty is a good sized boy and Ollie has bad dogs. I could see it if he laid a Seve flop shot on his arse. :-}

Later,

Good point, but Monty IMO is a mommas boy !!!!!!
