Foxestalk Football Trivia League-July Edition

Recommended Posts

Posted

In the last edition, there was a genuine battle for supremacy with Smuts, Stan, Facecloth and Tripe locked in a four way battle to claim most points in that round but eventually Smuts was able to continue his brilliant run of form to emerge victorious but Facecloth is still the market leader with a gap of 25 points.

 

However, fear not there is still a glimmer of hope!  We are now in the summer season which are notorious for wreaking havoc in the league with posters being flung all over the world on their holidays and there is nothing worser than returning home to see your long forgotten clothes in wash getting all mouldy or overwhelming stench in the kitchen from your unchanged bin expect for seeing your lead in the league over the nearest placed opponent being cut short!

 

Therefore, will we see chasers taking advantage of Facecloth’s possible holidays over the summer or will wily old Facecloth time his holidays not to clash with quiz dates?  Play ooooooooooon!
