Week 15

While the Chairman counts his winnings from placing a 7-1 15-quid bet on the inevitable England debâcle self-destructing last weekend, our most wondrous leader considers the impossible odds that local bookies might have placed on Alfletico Madrid storming up the league a staggering eleven places this week.

Indeed, Alfred Bradley is Manager of the Week this week by steering his team to a massive score of 27 points. Remarkable stuff for one so young.

Meanwhile, new father Steve 'McClaren' Tierney climbs up to third in an attempt to set an example to his son. Thank goodness there are plenty of years ahead for the paternal disappointment to set in.

And here comes the cup...

NEXT WEEK...

Your team will be entered into a qualifying group from which you will want to escape in order to get into the knockout stage of the OFFL Cup. Get ready...

And as build ups go, that wasn't one of them.

Week 12

Happy Birthday to Top of the Norm manager Mark Norman. Now in his 41st year, he seems to, at last, have a team in the top half of the league table. Mr Norman nets an impressive week tally of 14 but still doesn't come close to a remarkable Manager of the Week certificate winning 20 point haul from Guy Harewood's Bangkok Burn FC. Congratulations Guy.

Here's an interesting fact, did you know that Bangkok doesn't actually exist. The capital of Thailand is in fact Krung Thep. It hasn't been called Bangkok by the locals for nearly 230 years. Not even Wikipedia seems to know that one. And while we're ambling around the public park of uselessly useless information, did you know that there is an online Star Wars Encyclopaedia called Wookieepedia.

It just gets better and better doesn't it?

No.

Now, while the Chairman goes a-wandering round the Philippines for local [footballing] talent he leaves the league resting, shakily, on the precipice of the OFFL Cup competition.

It's really quite exciting.
