The Blur Posted 14 December 2014 Posted 14 December 2014 Welcome to the 2015 edition of Foxestalk Football Trivia League! Last month we saw Facecloth emerged triumphant with the title of Foxestalk Football Trivia League champion despite the best effort of Ross-Kemp to change the hands of the title at the last second. Will Ross-Kemp learn from last season and emerge stronger or will Facecloth cover himself in glory once again. Will the title go elsewhere such as the dark horse The Doctor or Stan SP or the inbetweeners youths Des,Wookie and Scousefox or will we have an unknown storming in the title race? Not only we will have a league- I will be introducing not just one but two new competitions. Foxestalk Football Trivia League Cup will pit top sixteen posters from the final league table previous season against each other in a knockout format in a random draw. Whichever poster score more points in a particular month will progress. In an event of a tie then the poster who is higher in the current table will go through. If both posters have same points in the current table then the positioning in the 2014 table will be used. The competition will run from Jan with the final taking place in May edition. We then have a break until August where Foxestalk Trivia FA Cup will pit top sixteen posters in the current season league table with same format and rules (So new posters who enter this year can compete) The league will run on second Sunday of every month from 8pm if possible.
