With the 2010 NFL now headed for the results archive, it’s time to reveal the final table in our mini-league (with thanks to facetheball.com for providing all that under-the-bonnet IT plumbing, which made it all possible). Unlike the real thing, there’s no need for any post-match analysis as to how this finished up the way it did, as Mick C […]
The league final still has to be played (all four of them, in fact) but here in NFL mini-league land, we already have a winner irrespective of how the Division 1 and 2 finals (which are the only two that count for the purposes of the mini-league) pan out. Mick C – one of the leading lights in Club Mayo […]
We’re approaching the finishing line in this year’s NFL mini-league and, unless he comes a cropper at the final fence, Mick C is going to win with a bit to spare. He’s got 63 points to spare on Barney in second place and with only one full weekend of action (plus the two finals themselves a fortnight afterwards) to go, […]
After all that helter-skelter, hold-onto-your-hats welter of movement in previous weeks, this week’s mini-league table bears a remarkable resemblance to last week’s offering. If this were World War I (which it’s not, though it felt a bit like that at Comment Moderation HQ tonight), it would appear that we’ve now reached the Marne and the shovels have just been produced. The […]
The mini-league table has changed again following another weekend of topsy-turvy results, with Mick C becoming the fourth leader in four weeks. Mick was back in tenth after the first week but has made steady progress since then and moves up to top spot from third last week. Barney, who is now in second spot, has made similar progress, starting […]
It’s all change again in the NFL 2010 prediction mini-league, with only two contestants holding onto the same place they were in the previous week. (Unfortunately for them, the positions in question are 24th and 25th). The big news this week, though, is the meteoric rise all the way from tenth to first of ontheroad, whom many of you will […]
It’s still early days in the Mini-League and so there was plenty of movement in the table compared to the standings after the opening week, with a few unexpected results last weekend (including our own up in Omagh) leading some of the field – myself included – somewhat astray. As a result, everybody has ended this week in a different […]
The NFL 2010 mini-league is, like its on-field source material, already out of the traps and over the first hurdle with the field of 25 now haring off towards the second one this weekend. Out in front at this very early stage is ComeOnTheGaels, a name that didn’t feature in either the NFL or championship mini-leagues last year (could you […]
I’ve now done the necessary under-the-bonnet admin to get the 2010 NFL mini-league up and running. Joining it is a piece of the proverbial: all you need to do is log in (or register and then log in if you’re new to this) on the Face the Ball site, join the main site’s 2010 NFL competition (you need to join […]
It’s my bloggy birthday today, so it is – three full years have now passed since that fateful day on which I penned this initial entry, thus launching what has since become a rather meandering and, at times, slightly deranged public discourse about the county’s onward footballing journey down Road to God Knows Where. So many words, so few big […]
