With an astonishing midfield of Fabregas, Lampard, Gerrard and Elano; a very healthy ManU/Ars/Por/Eve defence setup; AND Tevez and Benjani up front, it's no surprise that Neil McConaghy's Mingmongs are seemingly running away with it right now. Stretching their lead over the chasing pack by at least 17 points, the rest of the league can almost make out a victory wiggle from those slim Welsh hips on the horizon ahead.A timely reminder therefore, that it is marathon and not a sprint.
And let's face it... have you ever seen a Welshman with a wiggle ever win a marathon?
Well, have you?
No.
Manager of the Week this week is Matt Waldron. Waldron's Wanders notch up a large 23 points landing him the certificate ahead of fellow highest climbers [up five places all] Hilary Straw's Straw Bucharest, Rob Ivison's Wife #3 and Russell Bielby's Livercoolio.
And look, surely some sort of reward should be tossed out to Tom Vamos for scoring enough points to lift him off the bottom of the table. His West Vam climb TWO places!
It just doesn't get any more exciting [for him].
Oh yes it does...
The OFFL Cup
Current Champs: Neil Davis's Nellies Overpaid Convicts
Welcome to the Qualifying Round
1. Five groups of 8 teams, selected on the basis of this week's League positions.
2. Using the scores from Weeks 19, 20 and 21 the final positions of the teams in these groups decide whether or not they go through to the knockout stage of this most wonderful of competitions.
3. The bottom team of each group will exit the competition.
4. The three worst scoring 'second-from-bottom-placed' teams also exit the competition leaving a knockout tournament of 32 teams.
And don't forget, there's a Shoot Annual at stake [not 2008's though, cough].
