Stan’s latest comments….

 

Punters,

 

It's all over and this year’s trophy goes to Pearson’s “99 Flake” – leaders since forever. James scoops the £65 jackpot prize! Amanda gets £39 for 2nd, Bob £19.50 for 3rd, and Parkinson amasses £1.75 for 4th after deducting his fees.

 

Using my cunning mathematical ingenuity, the best team you could have selected was:

Rules

 

What Stan has decreed….

 

A complicated mathematical system of games played over the last three years and points scored over the seasons have constituted the costings for this season. Choose your team wisely - 100 points is the maximum spend. Remember, in this game the winner will be the manager who picks the most improving players over the 2011 Season.

 

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

 

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

 

Standard entry fee is £5.00

 

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.
