Thanks for all your hard work in running these leagues.
I'm tempted to try to continue them, but you're a hard act to follow. However, I'd miss them not being available.
Will see if anyone else fancies taking on the challenge, but might look to try to continue them if not.

Steve Albini, producer of too many iconic albums to mention.
"Seamonsters" by The Wedding Present is the first one that springs to mind, but most would probably know him from his work with Nirvana.
Just seen someone describe this as "Princess Diana for 6 Music Dads."

Payment just sent for 3 and 4.
If there's interest, I might look to set up a cups competition and LMS, on a similar basis that you've run them previously. No immediate rush to have these in place by the start of the season, so it's something I'll re-visit once the early admin stuff is out of the way.
Thanks for running the main leagues again.

Sad news about Doyle Brunson.
His life story was remarkable, including surviving cancer as a young man, and his position as a legend of the poker world was beyond dispute. I still remember the slight thrill of seeing him on his buggy in Vegas a few years ago.

3rd time definitely not the charm!
In fairness, it was a miracle to get to a tie, given the gap going into Sunday. I was the only one not to play Saka and I had Johnstone on the bench.
Needed something spectacular from Isak and Bowen, and Newcastle and Wesh Ham's performances did at least give me a sweat.
Thanks for running and good luck to those still standing.

When I first started playing poker in around 2004, he was Mr Consistency in terms of his tournament record. Always there or thereabouts in the Grosvenor festival results around the country.
I was part of a 6 way chop at one of the Luton Festival events around that time, which included Micky, Carlo Citrone and a certain Rob Yong in the group of 6. He was a tough opponent, but also pleasant company at the table.
RIP Micky Wernick.

LMS GW 18:
We had a tie.
The first tiebreaker is the number of goals scored by the players in your team.
Both Real Satoshi and Bee Sting FC scored two goals (Haaland and Rashford).
The second tie-breaker is countback (last week's score).
Real Satoshi: 83 Bee Sting FC: 87
So Real Satoshi is eliminated on countback.
From what I can work out, I think I may have survived a tie break for the 2nd time this season in GW25. My 77 (-4) and Ha Ha Land's 85 (-12) both level on 73 points. My team has 4 goals (Haaland, Salah, Saka and Odegaard), his has 3 (Haaland, Salah and Saka). Assuming so, I feel a Phil Hellmuth "I can dodge bullets, baby" is in order.
