Gunnar Hallberg is a tall, big-boned Viking of a player, who, three decades ago, decided to cross the North Sea to raid the high-stake bridge clubs of England. He's lived here ever since, and Sweden's loss, it turns out, has been our gain. He's gone on to represent England numerous times in European and world championships (twice winning gold in the Seniors), and is a popular figure who's always willing to lend his time and expertise to lesser players. Now aged 80 (you'd never guess it), he's still going strong, still playing for the England seniors and still a fearsome opponent at the rubber bridge table. You can find him at TGRs in London most weeks, and the game is always more fun when he's in it. This deal cropped up recently; the stakes were £30 (per 100 points): Gunnar's 1NT overcall was a classic psyche: after seeing his partner pass, he pretended to have a strong balanced hand, intending to run to 2♦️ if doubled. It was what happened next that was so unusual: not many players would bid on to 3NT and then pass a double! When his partner bid 2NT over West's 2♥️, however, Gunnar knew he must have seven or eight points. Those points were most likely in the minors. And he surely had length in the minors too, as he hadn't overcalled 2♠️. So over East's 3♥️, he bid 3NT. West, as it happens, was the former England international Robert Sheehan, a superb and solid rubber-bridge player. But Gunnar didn't panic-run. 3NT, he worked out, had as good a chance as 4♦️. And when Robert led the ♠️J, he was soon claiming 11 tricks and +750. Fortune favours the brave, as every Viking knows.

Palace co-owner John Textor would sell shares for Europa League chance
The American, whose Eagle Football Group owns 43 per cent of Palace, has imperilled the club's chance of a first-ever European campaign owing to his involvement with Ligue 1 side Lyon, but is ready to offload his stake to his fellow co-owners in order to bring the saga to an end. UEFA does not allow clubs with the same ownership to compete in the same European competitions in a season. As well as his stake in Palace, the 59-year-old has a controlling stake in the French club, also via Eagle Football. However it is also reported that the European governing body does not consider Textor's influence at Selhurst Park to be decisive and is leaning towards allowing the club into the Europa League regardless. The PA news agency understands no formal decision is likely on Palace's fate until the end of June. Textor has previously spoken of his frustration at how little influence his stake entitles him to, over football matters. Victory for Oliver Glasner's side over Manchester City in last month's FA Cup final gave them their first major trophy and with it a first crack at Europe. However, Nottingham Forest have since written to UEFA to challenge Palace's Europa League spot and in the hope of taking their place. Forest's owner Evangelos Marinakis, who also owns Greek side Olympiacos, placed his shares in the club in a blind trust before the governing body's March 1 deadline, anticipating Nuno Espirito Santo's side's European qualification. At present Forest, who finished seventh in last season's Premier League, are set to enter the Conference League but would take Palace's Europa League place, should they be deemed ineligible.
