It's why I would spend hours, sitting up until 2 am, writing the updates every week, until it literally got too much, when the League numbers grew to more than time than I was able to spend writing about them all, in the way I would wish . Now I love reading Rosie's updates that she dedicates so much time to each and every week. It's what makes us different to all the other Leagues. There was no way I'd have spent all that time writing about any other League, cash or not. I might have a cursory look to see where I am in the world, but I don't really care. It's you all that are important to me.

It just makes me feel sad to see Villa fans captaining opposing players in this special League of dedicated and passionate Villa fans. Especially when I know so many won't ever do so, due to loyalty to Villa and will therefore lose quite badly out in some of the games. It can get quite demoralising sometimes. I think if I had bigger fish to fry. and were that bothered about the main League and cash Leagues, I'd just create a 2nd team for them, (though I know that's not really allowed). All the best Sam. I hope you win your £10 without a Haaland hat trick.
Great post Winnie.
