Other ways to watch the TV in your favourite lycra listening to your iPod. |
Apart from playing their part in many an amusing cat video there is no real need for running machines to actually exist in our lives, let's face it. There are plenty of other ways to watch the TV in your favourite lycra while standing up listening to your iPod.
And very much like a running machine so the OFFL treadmill finds itself in existence.
[We shall now pause for you to flick through your own images of stumbling padding pussy paws while we awkwardly wait for the OFFL metaphor rain to stop pouring on the opening couple of paragraphs of this Week's Studmarks. Let's hoist an umbrella and get down to business, shall we?]
And like needless running machines there is certainly no need to point out the bleedin' obvious (but we're going to anyway) in that the Manager of the Week this week is Alun Edwards for managing his Radnorshire Tigers to a first week's table-topping tally of 16 points. Let's see if the Tigers can keep this up unlike Minty Colquhoun's early lead last season...
*Swanny Whistle Down*
Amid such farce we welcome some old faces back to OFFL20. Not least Pete "Mr Loverman" Braithwaite who was part of the league when it was the RFFL, many years ago, but also we say hello [in the style of Mr Tumble] to OFFL Virgins Stanley Wilson and Mandy Noble. And while their two ages bring the OFFL Manager average down to about 15 years, the returning Mr Smears ensures it climbs back up to nearer the usual 65 years.
In the meantime, let's have a look at the most popular players picked so far in the league.
