Penlee lifeboat tragedy; Christmas; a launch so perilous, the Coxswain had refused to take two volunteers from one family.
The lifeboat, in high seas, with four crew already saved, could have aborted, but instead bravely pulled alongside for another attempt to rescue the remainder. If you can get past that line, that's more than I've ever managed...
Picking a first goal scorer from the prediction league drop down list was sobering. I've approached it in a systematic manner, ruling out the departures, the injuries and the no-hopers, and In the end I've gone for the new lad, Shepperd...
It is hard work staying positive. I've still gone for a win, of course.
I've always thought that, given you've always got one extra player (keeper), then reducing the number of players in the box one-for-one gives you a bigger defensive edge, that is, 3 marking 2 gives you an advantage over 9 marking 8, for example...??
Indeed, at the end of 144 matches, two thirds of the teams are still in?! Not really much 'competition' there, in a league where you don't even play all the other teams.
In addition you're guaranteed two 'headline' matches against Barcelona, not that it matters if you lose these, as along as you dish out regulation pastings to the other six duffers you've drawn.
Great to catch you Nathan, and just in time... If you drop me a DM with details, I'll get £30 to you asap! Good luck for this season, we have had double winners before.
Old red button: one camera, one (dismally unengaged, under-prepped, wiki page open on phone) commentator, no replays (old school: go for a wee, miss a goal, too bad).
SSP+: Multiple angles, two commentators, one of whom may actually have seen a football match before and one who isn't Andy Hinchcliffe, replays of key incidents.
Far from brilliant, but it is a huge step up in quality - add Gary Neville having a pop at Granit Xhaka and Jamie Mackie in the studio, and you're almost at BSB Squarial standard...
I have renewed this league for this season; existing subscribers will have rolled over, the join code for any newbies is 99haqo - all welcome.
I will again be offering the winner an AOF t-shirt of their choice (Stanley, obvs though). Or the cash.
Speaking of which, there is something of a history of winners not sticking around to collect their prize (paging Nathan Mac with Thruxton Slapstick) - as in previous years, I will donate unclaimed winnings to charity (top LR regular Steve Ryder's Brain Tumour Research fundraiser - excuse the plug - https://www.justgiving.com/page/steven-ryder-1722442958493 ).
Good luck all. Sticky for a day or two, please Clive? Thanks!
Good, but they did charge fees for QPR (though in general they don't). As long as you don't 'allow offers', which froze you out from selling to anyone else but was non-binding on the buyer..?!?
There is a Facebook group for face-value sales, if anyone is interested:
