Week 32: Undiminished Spurting

Beecroft: undiminished spurt
.

A couple of hatricks with a couple of braces and Manager of the Week this week is Smasher whose League Champions, Inter Milandrover, tucked away 40 points this week.  That's 12 points ahead of nearest rivals Irishpool resulting in the current Champs reclaiming fourth spot.  All the OFFL needs is another few weeks like this one and Russ Bielby might have something to worry about.

Though not from Minty Colquhoun's Mintal Institute...  Move along, there's nothing to see there.  Oof.

Meanwhile, Rick Beecroft's end-of-season spurt hasn't diminished.  Still thrusting up the chart, now seventh.  Keep it up Lord Beeky, keep it up.

   From: Mike Smears

     To: Chairman@LittleSmasher.com

Subject: 

Esteemed and Most Honourable Mr President

 

It will not have escaped your attention that the Rt Hon Chancellor has seen fit to empower OAPs by liberating their pension arrangements. May I suggest you, for once, take the sensible course of action and follow in his footsteps. A little relaxation of the rules, such as allowing people like myself over the age of 90 to have a free choice in buying our players, would be appropriate.  All I ask is a LITTLE relaxation: then I can sign up 11 Liverpool players. Can you so arrange?

 

Assuming that as ever you will treat this request with your usual obstinate refusal to cooperate, will you instead please effect the following transfer:

 

OUT

622    Ozil

 

IN

387    Silva

 

I am most grateful and undertake accordingly to vote for you to continue as President next season.

 

Yours most humbly

 

 

Bristling from Bassett

Chairman responds:

Ah, I see you've surprisingly transferred in the diminuitive Iberian Maestro.  I say, 'surprisingly' because nobody expects the Spanish Inch Magician.

That's the third and final time I've tried to push that gag.  I'm giving up on it now.
