I remember when STD stood for Subscriber Trunk Dialling :lol:

Spot is fine. The vet says he's probably not eating properly because he wants to look his best for the Floozy Poodle.

£36.48 to tell me he's pining ?! :shock:

Sorry for the delay folks but, without Spot, it wouldn't quite be the same !

Tables

No change at the top of either League, even though Buxton dropped points to ClaretBurns. Huw Y Watt has come from nowhere (See what I did there?!) and continues an impressive run. He's still rooted to the foot of the Brian O'Neil though

Image

In the Ralph Coates Bobinho is doing a "Liverpool" but the talking point has to be Mr Top Tier - a 7th straight win after an indifferent start to the season.

NEXT GAME STARTS WEDNESDAY

Thanks Ralph and Spot.
I would love to say that I have developed a new technique, but I have no rational explanation of how or why there has been such a transformation, hope it continues though.

I've just checked and believe that I should have won 5-4 rather than drawing 5-5.

Thanks for checking :)

Just read this so I thought I'd check my game and I think I should have won 3-2. Can you please check it for me Ralph to show I'm not going crazy :o

Cheers Ralph. Maybe Spots trip to the vet had more affect than you realised. Anyway I owed Goobs after he beat me in the semis.

Spot and I, (like the grammatical nuance?) have rechecked everything.

Thank you for checking. Obviously, Spot's condition has been playing on my eyesight (LOL)

ALL results have been checked and VAR has confirmed ALL other results.

Apologies to all who have been affected. The vet did recommend glasses - for me ! :lol:

Spot - has it seems either a case of Poodleitis or Dogmentia.

As a qualified vet I can't yet rule out a severe dose of Bobinhosis.

Invoice of £36.48 on it's way.

Game 19 Fixtures, starts tomorrow

MOTD cameras have chose The Doge v Green Parrot. Both teams need points for different reasons. Will Green Parrot stay above the cut-off position 14? Can The Doge maintain recent form and launch an assault on Burns and Buxton (Famous firm of solicitors ;) ) ?

Image

In the Ralph Coates, the Spotlight shines on the mid-table clash between Wilks and Tiger76. Teams will be desperate to avoid the "Wild Card" play-offs. But who will head off up the table after this one? Bobinho has recovered his MoJo after just one defeat all season. Come on BigF, the World is rooting for you ! (No offence Bobinho ;) )

I will try - perhaps it is I who need glasses as well. I do seem to have played a great number of away fixtures though I doubt if I'd find my way to my home ground anyway. (I'm not really complaining RCC).
