FOODCOUNT V Villa - 5/10 38g Smarties

Post by Eloise Laws » Sun Sep 28, 2025 4:27 pm

Here goes :-

I’m not that witty, to compose a ditty and
I don’t have time to think up a football rhyme
So I offer 38g of Smarties, lots of points to be won
5 for the nearest guess or 10 if you’re spot on

Yellow
Pink
Mauve
Blue
Orange
Red
Brown
Green

Count will close next Sunday at Noon
UTC

I would expect we will be in the black third strip and Villa will be wearing the claret. So I want the team in black to win.
