Week 19: A Frosty Christmas?

Happy Christmas to Mr and Mrs Salter

What a week?!  In fact, it's been more of a weeeeeek!  And with the usual Christmas chaos breaking out all around us it's no wonder Our Most Gracious Chairman is feeling a little sore-headed.  Of course, it doesn't help matters when He can't find his extra-large-and-saggy-waisted-velcro-fastened feasting pantaloons.

And that's why there's still no sign of a Christmas bonus turning up for the OFFL HQ Umpa-Lumpas.

It appears that, like our Boxing Day toilet seat approach, we're going to have to crack-on.

Crystal Phallus have launched themselves into Third using the 'Manager Of The Week' certificate-winning trebuchet of 38 points.  Manager Guy Salter is clearly looking a bit nervous about this as he's just realised that for the first time in his marriage he is actually one step ahead of his wife, Sarah Bingbong.

That's one family's happy Christmas that's destined to remain desperately quixotic.  Studmarks salutes you.

And talking of quixotic attempts at happiness and fulfilment, Chris Walsh's Obi Wan Kenobi Nil have more than doubled their entire season's point tally by scoring 35!  It looks like he might even climb a place in the table before the year is out.  2016, eh?  A year of Unlikelinesses.

Happy Christmas everyone, may the OFFL Cup First Round prove distracting - it begins on Boxing Day.
