I take your points about the 'maxxi's and retract my initial query. Not likely to happen anyway. I would argur though that the <75% ers should be shown lower in the table than others who have less points. For e.g El Pibe can not longer reach the magical 75% as there are not enough weeks left. Don't mind me though. I just like rules.


As for the Cup, I still don't get that. If you only have 8 entries and have 8 q/finalists, everyone qualifies and makes the 3rd,4th and 5th rounds of the cup pointless. I know someone will tell me what I've missed.

The only challenge you might have is if those who can't hit the magic 75% lose interest :(


The option's still open to multiply final score (not including maxxis) by percentage of games played, even if it drives Jah wild.


I wish I could play but I know sweet fanny adams about football.

I would need to go back and look at what was exactly said about the 75% rule. I do know that you needed 75% as an incentive to take part in the Cups, but that has since changed.

You have to remember this wasn't plannned, it just sort of evolved. The maxxi only came about because people joined later than others. Next season, if it's retained, the maxxi will be adjusted to take into account average scores over the whole of this season.

Hopefully next season it will be a lot simpler and clearer, especially as everyone will start at the same time.



Actually you're right, if there were only 8 teams the earlier rounds would be dead ducks. I should've said we need at least 9 teams. Luckily we have at least 9 teams, as ???? will be joining in, so at least one person will get eliminated...

Don't worry H, out of curiosity I'm going to apply the Huggy Quotient at the end of the season...although, depending on the outcome, I reserve the right to withhold publication ;-)

I think you'll find most of the British/Asian kids in the East End have got hair just like that.

Their loss our gain. Please let it happen.

I just hope while he's on loan he proves everyone wrong and manages to change his name from "Oh-no-he's-bringing-on-bloody-Chamakh!" to something a little more positive.


Personally I have more hope for the young Waterford striker, Sean Maguire (no, not the Eastenders actor) working his way into the first team.

    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
    • Hello, I’ve got a 1980’s  one if you’re interested it works fine a bit old school 
    • Another recommendation for Greg.  He provided excellent service - fast response, quote and then fitting the job in.  The inbuilt wardrobes he made are of a very high quality and he was a pleasure to work with.  Helped us with some additional shelving and a broken floorboard too.  Highly recommend!
