A 3 way tie for the pie!!

Category: Uncategorized – Author: michaelcaird – 4:27 am

Aye aye, 

It looks like we are going to have one competitive season folks. At the end of August we have 3 managers tied in 1st place. Oh yes, very exciting for the neutral sports fan out there, but how do I divy up the goodies? Well, since I was caught unawares with this tie, I have decided for this month, and all other months that the pot should be, and will be evenly split between the tied managers.

I also had the grand plan of putting a * beside the team name to represent how many MOTM they had won. Just like national teams have on their shirts beside their badge to represent how many World Cups they’ve won (if I hear England, 1966, some nobb dancing, 3 fooking lions mentioned once, only once, you’re all OOT!!) you know who you are!  Now I have to have a chuffing (*) (as if you won it but while on steroids or something) when there’s a tie for MOTM and the pot has to be split.

This week’s big climber was BAUNTON BABES with a huge 16 place climb up the table, and into 4th place behind the 3 leaders. Well done that man!

Big fallers this week were THE PSL’S and PIE FACE UNITED, both dropping 9 places. PIE FACE UNITED, a bit of advice, don’t listen to your father when it comes to fitba!

No games this weekend due the start of the European World Cup qualifiers on the long road to South Africa. Next games Sept 13th.

As I would normally do, I would give a special mention to whoever England were playing in their upcoming match. But ANDORRA, AN fookin DORRA, give me a break! I kid you not, I have just checked, the population of ANDORRA as of 2007 is 71,882 people!! I have more people living on my block! By the way, if any of the 26 TAPL managers I haven’t met are from Andorra, please, no offence, your little tax haven country sounds wonderful. Anyway England, just wait till KAZAKHSTAN get you at home!

What ever wonderful nation you will be rooting for, good luck!!

FYI…I will be in Navada Smiths for the Scotland 9am kick off Saturday morning. Any of you England boys popping in for your game at 2pm? Let me know if you are and I’ll try to stay sober long enough to have another pint.

 Cheers

Michael
