Well I’m proud of 4points and would like to thank meandliz for their dedication to the cause ... xxxxxx all very good fun so amazing job guys .. xxxxSo, Trevor, the opening weekend of the league season is finally with us, after several postponements and abandonments (due to floodlight failure). Thoughts?
Well, Gary, wasn't it just? It's always, like I say, quite frankly marvellous, wasn't it? It was a quiz of two halves, real end to end stuff. like I always say, you know what I mean.
Haha not sure I do, Trevor. Cup holders @Vanezza started the quiz shakily but were simply magnificent in midfield, after spending a lot of the close season in the Days of the Week threads.
Well, that's very much the modern game, Gary, not like our day, eh?
Think Cloughie would have had a thing or two to say about that, Trevor.
Of course, don't forget - we won the World Cup in 1966, Gary. That tells you everything. No Fishnet Friday back then. We had rickets, though.
League new boy @StokeChoke made an impressive debut, beating @Mel007 who had a few communication difficulties, it seemed?
Yes, Gary, facetime can really take its toll. Even Lionel Messi would agree there, isn't he great, though?
Quite. Do you think the mind games played by @Baldricknkaz had any effect on their draw with @Biofilm ?
Absolutely, Gary, the boy Balders was quite vocal about employing a naked Kaz to bamboozle the attack and I think there was a bit of a suggestion of jelly babies, at one point. I think that's why they narrowly beat a solid performance from both @TherLegs and @debE
The reigning league champions, fresh from being in Europe, @Nigel&Julie flattered to deceive in the first half and missed a few open goals, but staged a magnificent comeback in the dying seconds of the game to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Is it time, do you think Trevor, to make the Bonus question harder?
I think so, Gary. Maybe more herons, who knows? If they can do it on the continent, I don't see why we can't have it here. There's been talk of Stephen Fry, so we just don't know. Isn't it?
Thank you, Trevor. Before we go, just time to look at the league table;

Of course, it's early days and there's still everything to play for, with many teams yet to play. See you next week.....
