The Wembey boot goes to Geoff.

[Hog]

Well that's ruined the whole ferking weekend, nay season, for me!

Well done Geoff, you are the new Bootmeister!

[Geoff]

Not sure how I managed that!

What a season. Promotion and now this! Life doesn't get much better!

[Boogie]

So is there now a play-off final?

What about asking Geoff and Hog which players will be gone by June 17th?

One point for each correct named player prediction, minus two for each incorrect named player prediction and minus one for player going not mentioned.

But they have to PM Mally by Thursday lunchtime so that the second to post cannot trump the first to post.

Mally - any better idea?

No clever ideas required. Geoff is the boot champion. As the rules clearly state (repeated in the last table post) in the event of a tie the most recent winner takes the title. I should know firstly I set the rule and secondly that's how I won it from Geoff last season. I also seem to remember (I checked to be honest) Boogie asking for a play-off on that occasion too.

Congratulations Geoff. You get to set the opening Football League Boot (how good does that sound) next season and become the arbiter of every dispute and rule challenge. Commiserations to Hog who put up a valiant fight but fell at the final fence. If past history is anything to go by he should pip Geoff for the title next time around.

[Geoff]

Thanks Mally. 'Football League Boot' sounds very good indeed! Arbiter no less. Blimey, after all the stick I've given referees this season I'm about to be on the receiving end! I'd better try and find the rules. Didn't someone leave them on a silver coach?
