Week 21: 39 Pints

Image
Nick Borrett and his 39 pints Manager of the Week for the third time this season is Nick Borrett.  His Dowds Farm Goblins gulped back 39 pints this Christmas week.  Points.  We meant 39 points.

Week 20: Queen Cancels

Image
HRH QE2: Cancelled all OFFL Engagements When nine teams earn their respective managers a Manager of the Week certificate you know it's not a high-scoring week. Dave Clayton, Russell Bielby, Malcolm Meaden-Pratt, Nick Borrett, Rick Beecroft, Toby Larking, Karyn Meaden-Pratt, Minty Colquhoun and Craig McHugh all tear a piece off a needlessly over-sized Manager of the Week certificate. It wasn't presented to them by a conspicuously absent HRH QE2 at a disappointing ceremony at Buckingham Palace.  3 points.  Each. On to the Cup First Round. ============ The OFFL Cup ------------ Round One, Wk 21            Pyeators  v  Toby's Gang     It's A Snickers  v  Inter Milandrover     Crystal Phallus  v  Absolutely Fabregas     Neil's Diamonds  v  Starpratt Mustgo       Guess Hughton  v  Radnorshire Tigers     Johnny's Heroes  v  RS-TBOY   ...

Week 14 & 15: Reaffirming Superiority

Image
Clayton and Borrett sharing the Week's spoils Well, I suppose the trend continues with a Manager of the Week Certificate accompanying top spot but this time it is to reaffirm superiority, not steal it. Extending his lead at the top of the table from 1 point to 14 points, Dave Clayton is [joint] Manager of the Week after scoring 16 points with his Pyeators.  He shares the certificate with Nick Borrett whose Dowds Farm Goblins climb three places to land in sixth. Happy Birthday, by the way, for Tuesday for Mike Smears.  Another uncountable year older, another telegram from the Queen. What Ho! McHugh? Minus 4 points.  Giggle.  Everyone stare at him.  Point.  Laugh.  He's down two places.  [Is that all?] T h e   T a b l e                                             Value Points    Team             ...
