However, the captain of Bidders was quick to say his team will cart off the top hoounrs and why.
Ian Bacchus of Bidders made it known that “well first on paper we have the strongest team, second we have the experience to go along with it and thirdly we are the most feared team in Linden so there is no chance for Cats and their backup colleagues Big Landing, so we are going to take care of both of them.”
