All my team have suffered from and increase in value so will have to pick and choose...

I'm going to hang on to my captain. there's still mileage in those old legs,... So Lloyd stays
Poor Rhys ran himself in to stardom so will have to let him go to those team with more money
Even my Helen my Star lady is becoming too demanding on the beer front....

Lloyd
Stu Bond as long as he goes in the right direction he'll do alright
Neil Northtrop since he produces the race maps He's bound to head the right way.
and trying to stay true to the brown vests we'll have Pippa

not sure it's a winning team but it will be up there.....i hope

to make it clearer
Tiggers Brown Vests
Lloyd
Stu Bond
Neil Northrop
Pippa Wilkie

Hi Bill,changes already!
Lloyd Taggart 9
Tom Brunt 2
Wendy Dodds 2
Samantha Noble 1

Thinkin o' tinkerin Bill
Can I have myself for free and spend my pints on t'other three?
If not, Ian Nixon for James Logue please.

I'll go with the name 'Mixed Fortunes' again and start with
Carl Bell - 5
Martin M-B - 4
Gavin Bland - 3
Pippa Wilkie - 2

Does the potential get-yourself-for-free arrangement proposed by Weetabix Power extend to ones better half? Unless I can have Jasmin for free, a look at her race calendar makes me doubt she can justify her 7 pints.

I was thinking of picking myself for a J2O and a pack of pork scratchings, but these'll do!

Thanks a lot for sorting.

---

Had a quick look at the final entry list for Edale and it seems Chris Steele is no longer racing (he didn't let his manager know, but I won't hold that against him).

So I think it's back to Kim Collison who did so well for me last year.


Gavin Bland (C) - 3
Kim Collison - 4
Carl Bell - 5
Sarah Bailey - 2

Cheers.

Team Swap!

Sticking with
Mounsey 3 pints

Tim Ellis- 4 pints
Karlos Gray- 5pints
Astrid Gibbs- 1 pint

Team "The Italian's Stallions"
Id lake to make a substitution please:Suprised not to see Ambleside's mens team skipper not in the line up for Edale (lazy bugger) would like to swap him for team mate Todd Oates if possible.
There isnt currently a price on Oates head( Thought he might be quite good in the snow given his name!!). If hes too expensive however Ill have Tom's wife Astrid Gibbs whos a much hardier animal than her husband. Thanks MM

That's only cos I'm not worthy of even 1 pint! Jasmin has a price of 7, think I'm flogging a dead horse with this anyhow, but u can only ask. U might have put me off Jasmin now!

Hot off the press James Logue not doing Edale!!!!!

Wondering if there will be a few more last minute substitutions given the conditions..i can see it now....Blackboards are hastily being washed down, names rubbed off and odds shortened as punters realise their money might be safer on older, hardier types -with perhaps a tad more body fat,blood,guts and damned mountain hardiness...

Italians stallions
Sorry-just read mine back and realised I hadnt made it clear I wanted to swap Tom Gibbs for Tod Oates! Ta

Bill

I'm assuming Maggie May knows what she / he is doing. Can I swap Tom Gibbs for Astrid Gibbs please?

I'd like to join the Kaliber League with this team please:

Captain Oates and the Toddlers:

Carl Bell 5
Annie Conway 5
Zanthe Wray 2
Todd Oates 1

Cheers.

Bill, assuming Derby Tup knows what he/she is doing [ooh, handbags] can i also swap Tom Gibbs for Astrid Gibbs please:

Jebby- 7
Carl Bell- 5
Emma Gregory- 1
Astrid Gibbs- 1

Thanks, i'm such a sheep.

Judging from MM's previous post, it seems MM thinks Astrid is either older, fatter or has more mountain hardiness. I hope for MM's sake (as it sounds like you know them), that Astrid's got more mountain hardiness. :)

Here's my 4 for Kaliber League 'Kelly's Heroes':

Carl Bell 5
Sharon Taylor 4
Wendy Dodds 2
Sam Tosh 2

Don't put me in your team, I can probably say that I won't get a single point this year as currently 2 stone heavier with baby number 3 due on Fairfield race day - Unless Bill will give you some extra points for me giving birth on Fairfield race day instead of doing the race!!!

Kunama Kings

Tom Addison 5
Carl Bell 5
Astrid Gibbs 1
Robert Little 2

At the risk of seemingly like a complete FF geek, Bill, please can you clarify whether the teams we have currently named will become our official picks (and thus only subject to change using our 2 subs), as of 10.30am tomorrow, notwithstanding the cancellation of tomorrow's Skyline? I'm presuming not, but just wanted to check.

Nope. They can be changed freely until the actual start of the first championship race.

Ah - I wondered why you weren't on the Edale entry list, 'cos I was thinking about putting you in my team.

No chance WP. And kcr can definitely not have Jasmin in his team for free!!

With Edale cancelled are we going to have a "Fellrunning Pools Panel" to predict the results?? :thumbup:

1 pint for Todd


There's been a bit of a rush on Astrid Gibbs at the moment !
But the most popular pick is Carl Bell (15teams) followed by Gavin Bland and Tom Brunt, both in 9 teams, then Jasmin Paris and Astrid Gibbs in 7.

Just in case there is a pools panel, here's my last minute team for the Boddington's League:

Stuck in a drift:

Mark Addison (5)
Carl Bell (5)
Gavin Bland (3)
Astrid Gibbs (1)

If you can't beat them better join them!
