Week 12: A Massive Ten Places


No internet in Australia
Manager of the Week, Adriana Chittelborough, scored a 'normous 23 points.  Not ony is the week's point tally 'normous but her team's league position-jump is also 'normous.  Chuffin' 'normous to be more specific. And to be even more specific... ADFC climb up a massive ten places in the league.

Foof.

Ms Chittelwhatsit was unable to comment from her holiday home in Australia.  Only because they don't have internet down under yet.

Nick Reed, on the other hand, takes his torn half of the Manager of the Week certificate much less dramatically as Stay Poyet Stay! joins Adriana Chittelthingy's ADFC on 23 points.

'Spect.

Week 11: Good Sheep, Bad Schandau


While out on a scouting mission for German talent, Our Chairman did find himself having a steamy session with a naked Dresden girl.  The naked local, who was also sitting next to her hunked-up boyfriend in the Steam Room at Bad Schandau quickly and coolly left without so much as raising an eyebrow of complaint at the awkward British repression on show. And talking of British Repression, Sheep City's Martyn Field [cough, choke] has decided to score enough points to push his team on to the top spot with Ms Bingham.

Manager of the Week with a team's score of 13 points is Alun Edwards of Radnorshire Tigers.

Everybody stare at Mike Smears... minus five.  Tut tut.

Week 09 & 10: Torn to Shreds

Defence not doing its job

Promising defensive reputations were torn to shreds this week as too many managers, optimistically scanning up and down their respective team sheets, see players register minus points.

For example, Alex Blundell's Moanchester gives their manager something to, well, moan about by giving away 7 whole points, pulling themselves to the bottom of the pile.  All Hail The Chairman's Rob Ivison isn't feeling too cocky either as his sycophantically named team fall to joint tenth by losing 5 points.

In more encouraging news however, an amazing score of 20 points for ADFC helps Adriana Chittelborough to her first ever Manager of the Week certificate. Studmarks has been reassured that the much coveted and highly fictional certificate will hang invisibly on her parlour wall.

[Adopts cockney accent/gait...]

...Be lucky

Week 8: Abominable


Norma Snockers HQ
Norma Snockers are still on top, resting on the shoulders of Sheep City who bleating away in second.  They are the first teams past the 100 point mark this season with the chasing pack not far behind.

What's that Shivam's Sneakers?  Only 6 points this week?  Yeah.  Only 6.

Only 6.

Manager of the Week is our foppishly fluffy feline friend, and current OFFL Champion, Lionel Larking.  He paw-swiped his team to a week's bowlful of 26 points and continues to mount his defence of the title.  Which has never been successfully defended in 15 years by the way.

Everyone stare at Minty Colquhoun, Adriana Chittelborough, Alun Edwards and Gavin Ward as they fall past you.  All plummet six places in the table. The Plummeting Humpty Numpties.

---
And finally, we remember James Wyse, Manager of Didcot Academicals in 2000/2001 season, who died last month.  He was telling his usual terrible jokes to the very end.  Like this one...

What do you call a male cattle that's just swallowed some semtex?

A bomb in a bull.
