Latest….

 

Stan’s latest comments….

 

Dudes,

 

With no less than five games since the last update the table has been shaken up a little, but the cream has risen to the top ;)

 

The main player totals for the entire five games have been interesting, with tour taking it’s toll, here was where the points were won:

 

Antony Mann

188

Ian Howarth

107

Dan Edwards

95

David Shorten

95

Thornton Smith

70

Nick Hebbes

58

James Hoskins

44

Martin Westmoreland

40

Mike Reeves

36

Steve Dobner

26

Matt Bullock

25

 

 

It is clear that those with the Dark Thought Harbourer in their teams will have done well – those being Del Boy, Tesco, The Judge, and Titanick. 

 

I have to say though Dudes, is it all too little too late?

 

Is it time to break out the subs?

 

Are you even allowed any subs?

 

You are if your name is Ant, Nick, Fussy Pussy……

 

….and James J

 

Stan.

Rules

 

What Stan has decreed….

 

A complicated mathematical system of games played over the last three years and points scored over the last four seasons have constituted the costings for this season. Choose your team wisely - 100 Snatches is the maximum spend. Remember, in this game the winner will be the manager who picks the most improving players over the 2008 Season.

 

The rules are the same as always - your team has to consist of SIX players, totalling no more than 100 Snatches.

 

There is a slight amendment to the substitution rules (because it isn't complicated enough)

 

Standard entry fee is £5.00

 

If you wish to reserve the right to make up to TWO substitutions throughout the year, entry fee is £7.50.

 

So, pay a fiver and you have to stick with your team. Pay £7.50, and you get to use two subs at any time in the season....

 

Come on - pick a team and have a chance to take the spoils, and win a magnificent trophy!

 

....the more the merrier - invite friends and relatives ;)

 

We only had eleven entries last year - it would be much better with more :)

 

Cherry Ho,

 

Stan.

 

Friends and Family welcome!

 

Stan.
