Recommended Posts

Posted

In last month, General Smuts carried on his recent hot streak, taking double digits worth of points and reducing Facecloth to nine points which was the first time ever that Facecloth took less than 10 points.  Will Facecloth do a Hull and see his lead cut by General Smuts's Leicester inspired charge? Will The Doctor and Stan SP rediscovered their old form and join General in a war charge. Speaking of our anagram king, Stan is facing the jester of Foxestalk, drunkard ScouseFox in the first ever Foxestalk Trivia Cup Final- who will be drinking champagne at end of this round? Play on!
