Tactics?? Don't go using "tactics" !!!

My own humble effort will be posted later today, Ralphy, but for now I thought a nice sporting tribute to our table-topping hero Buxton might be in order.

(Tune and original lyrics by The Who, of course.)


'Ever since I was a young boy
I’ve played at Spot-The-Ball
From Sunderland to Brighton
I’ve spotted that football
But I ain’t seen nothing like him
As far as I recall
That deadly Derbyshire kid
Sure Knows His Spot-The-Ball!

He homes in like an eagle
With eyes so sharp and keen
Seeing all the numbers
And always Spotting clean
He plays by intuition
Whilst other Spotters fall
That deadly Derbyshire kid
Sure knows his Spot-The Ball!

He's a Spot-The-Ball wizard
Who never seems to miss
A Spot-The-Ball wizard
Even when he’s on the p1ss!

How do you think he does it? I don't know!
What makes him so good?

Well, he ain't got no distractions
As he casts his Spotting-spell
Like 400-gram tins opening
And sudden fruity smells.
Never fails to get a near-miss
But more often hits the ball
That deadly Derbyshire kid
Sure knows his Spot-The-Ball!'

Awesome !

Well done !

Spot says you can have 3 Points for your efforts but, thankfully, he's not the one in charge of the points

I'll second that. Brilliant my Lord Admiral.

Nice one sailor.

thanks for doing the comp Spot

...and following the Admirals Who theme -

Won't get fooled again!

Hahaha
Red, me old butty!
Love it!
Hopefully, if i can get the donkey to stand still long enough for the remaining games, they'll be singing that in all the taverns and other questionable, dark, dubious, drinking establishments from the Caribbean to the S China Seas in the next raiding season!

PS
But listen, ole Salt, if you make the Euros, your gonna have to steer clear of those dodgy dungeons, or you'll miss the start of the season again.

Judging from your entires there claretdavid, I can only assume that we pressed "Enter" at the same time

Think we did Ralph. Looking at the answers now, I needn't have bothered !
