It took us sixteen years to beat our record number of players of 111 back in our 1999/2000 Season when last season we had a grand total of 119 joining in.
I thought that this would take some time before we would beat that record number, but how worng was I.
This season we have had a fantastic total of 136 players and now I think anything is possible.
Many thanks for all those taking part and this increase will also see our prize money go up, so where we said that our 34th Champion will pick up a total of £100, this has now been changed to £105.
But back to the games and a ctach up on last Fridays game between Fulham and NEWCASTLE. Newcastle were relegated last season to the Championship where a few of you are banking on them come straight back up. But in their very first Championship game they lost 1-0 away. A bit of a disapointment to start the season with a blank score sheet but we do have a long way to go.
This Season we have forty-five English teams with just nine Scottish teams voted for and this is how it looks.
From the English Premiership we have 12 teams with Manchester City picking up the highest number of votes with 50. We also have 12 Championship teams with Newcastle picking up the second most votes with 42. In League One we have 13 teams while in League Two we have eight.
From the Scottish teams we have a total of 5 from the Premiership with Celtic taking in the most number of votes again this season with 69 with Rangers second with 31. In the Championship we have just two teams and In League One also just two teams.
I have a lot to catch up on after being away for a long weekend but keep as eye on this blog for more up dates to follow. The first News Sheet will be sent out very soon, I hope!
