Fixtures Game 20

Bin Ont Turf and Firthy sit this one out. Friendly ??

The burning question is, can HuwYWattfromWare stop Sproggy taking the Willie Irvine?

Who will take the Champions League slots??

Game 20 ends at the final whistle v Newcastle on Sunday

UPDATE ON CHAMPIONS LEAGUE AND EUROPA LEAGUE GAMES

The 16 teams (8 from each League) in the Champions League will be split, randomly, into 4 mini leagues. These teams will play each other (3 Rounds in total). The top 2 from each league will go into the knock-out stages that will end in a Grand Final,

The 24 teams that are left in the Europa League (2 teams have disbarred themselves from this stage) will be split into 4 mini leagues. These teams will play each other (5 Rounds in total). The top 2 from each league will go into the knock-out stages that will end in a Grand Final.

If any of the above doesn't work, or make sense, address your comments to Slap Better, our Head of Corporate Swindling and Deception

Thanks Ralph and Spot, it feels great to be a champion at something, there is still a long way to go to the finish,
I think it was more luck than skill, i think you and Spot are more deserved champions for the work you two put in.
Thanks again oldclaret101.

But, who has been Mr Lucky, and towards the foot of this table, Mr Unlucky?

Imagine where Bin Ont Turf would have been with the luck of California Colner !

Here, the teams are organised in order of Goals Against - from smallest to largest

Besides, Steve Blatherwick and Lee Howey are injured for me, so you'd be in for a right shock. :)

Don't blame you at all mate, with the luck you've had so far. Still going to give it a go anyway as I need the practice, maybe you'll get bored and change your mind :D

That's the spirit. It's not your darts or blindfold that's the problem it's the blindfolds your keeper and defence are wearing. You need to start a petition to bring back the Ancien Regime :shock: :lol:

It seems to me that I have to win this one whilst hoping that my own emerald bird - among others - loses her last two. It's a tall order, to be fair.

But, as the saying goes, stranger things have happened at sea. And here we bravely go, then. On guard, icu8 ! ;)

It might but I've only had 1 draw this season, so chances are it'll yield a positive result either way. :)
