Thanks again Rosie. That’s the first and probably last time I will name Jack as my captain. Double disappointment.

With Friday’s Villa v Newcastle match postponed how are our managers going to cope with the Villa players in their team. 🤔
Sleepless nights ahead. 🤪
I told you I'd be back Rosie. Phew! Very relieved to have halted the run of losses and made a wee bit of progress this week. My Warriors have been taking way too much advantage of me being in my sick bed of late, so threatened them with no half time choccy muffins if they didn't put in a good performance this week. Seems to have worked. Looks like I'll be playing with 9, possibly 8 men this coming week though without transfers ...
Congrats to Harry for silver medal and a return to the top 6, where I'm sure he will be haranguing his dad.
Thank you for a brilliant report as always, Rosie!!
Great report thanks always makes me smile
My teams slipping down the charts a bit unlikely I’ll get the Xmas no 1 slot this year
Rock on
Awesome Rosie thanks for your continuing commitment to our Fantasy league.

You combine fun and facts so well, Rosie. Another enjoyable read - thank you!
Congrats to FL heavy weights Picasso and BB on their points haul this week. Class is permanent and all that so not surprised to see them both making their way back up the ladder again ...
Talking of class, now I'm back with the big boys, I'll be reverting to my usual classy tactic of accidentally on purpose treading on nemeses managers' toes while wearing 5 inch heels. Particularly if they are giving their team top tactical instructions that I don't understand.
Good luck everyone!
"Particularly if they are giving their team top tactical instructions that I don't understand. "
People. Don't let this I know nothing Mary Poppins routine fool you. This influential manager innit to winnit to be sure. 3 Monitors update constant player information.Injuries, form, emotional state. Calculating odds based more on the current personal lives of EPL players gained through a secret coven of player girlfriends called 'The Insufferables"
It gets worse. There are stories going around that certain players girlfriends are manipulating their good at football but otherwise simple boyfriends by messing with their heads 24 hours before match day. It's called the emotion motion and the resulting revealing information is said to be flowing back to the Worriers manager. Not only giving themr an unfair advantage in the prestigious Villa Mad FL Premiership but also as a shady lucrative dip into the betting market. I know right? Goodness me.
Based on overwhelming evidence and that I'm hungry I think their manager should be yellow carded and her Worriers docked 100 points. Some will think that's harsh and that's ok.
People. I am shocked and lost for words at the outrageous accusations being leveled at me by the most devious and cunning of scary cat managers.
While indulging in innocent girly phone gossip with some players' girlfriends, I have, on several occasions, discovered the scary one outside the door, note book in hand, frantically scribbling away ... Now, while I would not wish to cast aspersions on the scary cat's integrity, I would suggest, that his sudden rise to 2nd place, from, quite frankly, nowhere, must surely be more than a co-incidence? Either that, or he is desperate for tips on nails and hair.
Now, although it is not for me to interfere in the running of the Fantasy League, I would suggest that such deviousness, coupled with attempts to sabotage a fellow manager's career, should really warrant a 3 week ban and a 300 points deduction.
Mary Poppins would also like to point out that she, and she alone, holds the ejector seat button to the esteemed Villa Mad FL Premiership, and that her index finger is, at this present moment, hovering, rather precariously, over one Oztan Villa manager's name.
