At last! Alex Blundell's Moanchester United have something to moan about.

After scaling the heights to remain in contention for winning the League this season, Moanchester United have fallen at the first OFFL Cup hurdle, the group stage.  Indeed, the Moaners are the only seeded team to have failed to push through to the knockout stages of the competition leaving Manager Blundell in fear of his job.  And while his wife quietly, slowly begins to pack a bag amongst the blurred backdrop behind him, we look at the other sad and pathetic Cup Exiteers.

Other sad and pathetic Exiteers include:

Eg Rayner's RockRollford United
Sarah Bingham's Suits You Sur-man
Mally Meaden-Pratt's Rushden Academicals 2nd XI
Gavin Ward's Wardy's Wasters
Chris Walsh's Obi Wan Kenobi Nil
Martyn Field's Sheep City
Guy Salter's Crystal Phallus

So, so sad.

And pathetic.

Talking of pathetic, current OFFL Cup Holders, Inter Milandrover, live on to fight another day.  Not that anyone cares, of course.

Meanwhile, Radnorshire Tigers pat home 57 points helping manager Alun Edwards to a Manager of the Week Certificate.

Week 17: OFFL Cup Group Stage So Far

Manager of the Week is, again, Bayern Bru's Guy Harewood.  A remarkable score of 128 points, screwing up our league table columns, sees Mr Harewood's Bayern firmly into Third Place behind Moanchester United and new leader/current Champions Neil's Diamonds.

And the OFFL Cup situation so far...

Week 16: Bit of Tinsel

This particular edition of Studmarks would have consisted of the usual empty wishes of seasonal good will, an advent theme and a really sexy montage of the last twelve months.  Unfortunately a bit of tinsel got caught in the OFFL machine and a wheel fell off.

Manager of the Week is Guy Harewood.  His Bayern Bru scored 69 points.  Put that in your stocking and ladder it.

Stay safe, little beanbags.  Stay safe.

Week 15: OFFL Cup Group Stage

Christmas Boreball

With a mahoosive Manager of the Week-winning megascore of 94 points, our current Champion Neil McConaghy has narrowed the gap between his Second Placed Neil's Diamonds and current First Placed Moanchester United.  This makes the 92 point score deficit between First and Third place appear slightly less daunting.  In a fewer-points-than-you-think kind of way.

All of that is of absolute indifference to those below Third.

You may find some sort of interest-reignition in the fact that we now know which group you'll be in for the First Round of the OFFL Cup.

That was definitely a sharp intake of anticipatory breath somewhere in the audience there.

Hey, what am I blithering on about?  This is what I'm blathering on about...

Week 14: Dull

Strictly Dull

Manager of the Week again is Alex Bluddy Blundell, Moanchester United scored 51 points.  They're pulling away you know.

This week's highest climber is Sarah Bing Bong Bingham.  Her Suits You Surman climbed three places into Eleventh.  Otherwise there wasn't much movement in the table at all.  Quite dull really.

Let's distract ourselves, albeit very briefly, from the torpidity of this week's nonsense by thinking about the OFFL Cup.

There.  We thought about it.

Move on.
