Buffoon of the Year Update

Now then, i figured it may be a good time to see how things are shaping up in the world of buffoonery. Shouty continues a good run, his previous Prune Park Episode, Germany shenanigans, and last but not least the toilet paper incident. Crespo filled me in on this little pearler. It appears after a day out on the lash, the Shoutmeister decided to try his hand at impressing some of the local wenches in Shipley. Unfortunately for him he had some how managed to stick some bog roll to his hand(?), that he didn't notice for ages. Then to compound matters, he couldn't shift the damn thing and proceeded to show it off, as some kind of wondrous trophy to anyone who would listen. I'll give him one thing, he sure knows how to empty a room. It is on the is basis, and an accumulation, that he finally overtakes long time leader the Funky Messiah, who seems to gone off the boil since his Christmas exploits. There is a while to go yet for the current Maillot Jaune incumbent, but Shouty seems to be gaining a head of steam, although he has sworn to go on a time out. I will have to award myself third place at the moment, as the rest of the Squad seem Hell bent on growing old gracefully, although I have got to giver fourth place to El Grande Queso fourth place on the strength of his two casino visits so far this year. Fifth place is the hardest one to judge, as there seems no clear taker. John the Don has gone to ground, and it seems cruel to give it to the Boy Dazzler, whose only misdemeanour seems to be getting as plastered as he always has(although he has lost his wallet and phone on a couple of occasions this year). Tony Helmet has also been keeping a low profile, although I just know it can't last, and Mad Ad is always a couple of beers from performing the spectacular. On the basis of what has gone on so far this year I figure the top five to be the following;
  1. Shouty-Can he stop himself, or will his lead be lengthened?
  2. The Funky Messiah-Will burgeoning relationship prevent back to back win?
  3. Euro Bri-Can he keep upto the young pretenders?
  4. El Grande Queso-Casino mayhem, can it continue?
  5. The Boy Dazzler-A possible dark horse?
If I have missed out any worthy examples of idiocy please feel free to let me know, as I can't be everywhere at once.
