What if you lost your round, but your opponent doesn't send their teams in. Does the other team advance forward or will the opponent receive a bye?

If that happens, I groan.

 

Otherwise, I believe we now have a Maryport Convention...

Aye, now there's an idea. Harbourfront pints followed by a stagger round the Sea Life Centre and chips on the harbour. Hotel prices are quite reasonable thereabouts though travel to and from might involve our American cousins in giving up well over a day at either end.

Kaufman gives us some last minute scoring. That might be a KO blow for Joey, whereas Deathray finally gets on the scoresheet.

  1. Young Willz Thistle Do Nicely v Captain Chorizo 0-4
  2. Maryportfuncity FC v Morbid Kid 2-8
  3. The GUN’11 (Grim Up North) v JoeyRuss 8-4
  4. Deathray v Heef 2-8
  5. Chopped Liver v Death Comes to Wembley (Garn2) 2-6
  6. Shaun of the Dead v Rad Guy 2-4
  7. Charon v The Dead Cow 2-9
  8. The Cooler Name (Switch) v I Might Have to Pull You Off at Half-Time (Rockhopperpenguin) 4-2
  9. Pedro67 v Jiroemon Kimura 7-2
  10. Msc v Gcreptile 4-7

I think almost all of my predictions came true (so far). Though I did not foresee that MPFC would advance because of a forum ban.

I had Pedro vs. Jiroemon as a tie though. That was wrong.

Gerald Kaufman is the second candidate on my next team to die in the past week. I hope I can submit something later today.

My team's ready to go, but I'll be sending it tomorrow night as I'm having an internal debate between two potential candidates.

A BBC radio presenter, Andy Potter, has died. This was a unique hit for Garn's Death Comes to Wembley. I suspect if Potter had lived another few hours, he wouldn't have been unique in March, but these things happen.

  2. Maryportfuncity FC v Morbid Kid 2-8
  3. The GUN’11 (Grim Up North) v JoeyRuss 8-4

  5. Chopped Liver v Death Comes to Wembley (Garn2) 2-9
  6. Shaun of the Dead v Rad Guy 2-4
  7. Charon v The Dead Cow 2-9
  8. The Cooler Name (Switch) v I Might Have to Pull You Off at Half-Time (Rockhopperpenguin) 4-2

Biggest miss for me is Jay Clark as I decided to pick against him thinking he would only be worth 1 point,but he had no takers.

And he died too

 

Although can't find an obit yet.

Completely selfish statement: it would be quite useful to me if he didn't get a DDP QO.

Could go either way: he got Sun, Mirror and Metro stories with the original news of his illness (and managed a follow-up via the Mirror as well), but the story came via one of those "tragedy for sale" press agencies that usually supply Take A Break/That's Life et al with their features, rather than in-house. Honestly couldn't call it either way whether he gets the write up.

Not saying it's the only reason I probably lost, but one of the reasons I lost was because we were playing only 4 against each other (and the other 7 were the same!) and 2 of his 4 differentials have died, whereas none of mine have died.

In other words, because 2 of your 11 guys died in 27 days? :P

If I do win I must thank Joey for making this win such a pleasurable one.:D

 

Even down to wanting to publish his team of losers for the next round so we can all 'see how they do'.:blink::wacko:

I'm so busy at the moment (hand-rearing a mutant lamb amongst other things)  that I haven't given this much thought.  

 

Very, very impressed with the scores some teams have racked up this month.
