Neck and Neck

There has been movement in the league table for buffoon of the year, but not at the summit. Captain Queso has made a late move. First up was his enquiry to whether a pub we were about to enter was a free house, even though it had the words spelt out in on the sign. Secondly was his quote to Helmet that when he went to the casino, he either "Lost or won." But the eight points accrued leave him well short of the leaders. Helmet and the title holder, Shouty are still neck and neck, and have gone into deep hibernation, as to avoid scoring any more points. Which kind of points out a flaw in this years points system. Lying in third is Mad Adam, and not far behind him is 2007 winner Funky. But they have only really been sighted out two occasions this year, in comparison to the umpteen times that Shouty and Helmet. Others who do not put their reputation on the line often, but when they do score heavily are the King of the Pixies, Maffy, G-Spot, Skid and the Boy Dazzler, to name but a hand full. Yes, it is far to late to be rewriting the rule book, after all we are not FIFA, but I would suggest a board meeting of senior squad members to try and figure out the best way to ensure a fair result in 2010. I suggest the 24th of this month, after the City game as a date to to gather and confer. This does not, as I have already stated, impact on this years ruling. With both leaders in reticent mood, and with such healthy leads, I can only think of one fair way to have tie breaker. If there is no buffoonery from either, I shall have a text vote starting on the 30/10, and concluding on the stoke of midnight on the 1/11. If you receive a text from me, please reply simply with the word "Shouty" or "Helmet." Any messages that contain more than either of these single words will be rendered void. The current table is below;

1. Helmet 40 points
2. Shouty 40 points
3. Euro Bri 22 points
4. Funky 22 points
5. Mad Ad 21 points
6. Maffy 18 points
   
7. Lefty 14 points
8. King of the Pixies 14 points
   
9. Crespo 14 points
10. Sprocket 9 points
11. El Grande Queso 8 points
    
12. Pembo 4 points
13. Skid 4 points
14. John the Don 4 points
    
15. Dr Shotgun 2 points
16. G Spot 1 point
