N&R title race is on

Breaking News 8888888 N&R Grand Final Latest
Congratulations to all the Grand Final finalists. The top 10 will all share in the prizes come May, so almost half of the qualifiers from the Group Stages will make some pounds or dollars.

Just 60 points separates the top 10 after week 31 and just 100 (very doable with 11 weeks left) from top to bottom.

Who are the Favourites? Godders has done it all before but it has been a while. Whilst Godders is one for the sentimentalists amongst us, Neil Reynolds is competing in his first ever N&R FL and has been top or near top all season. Kirsty is attempting to be our 2nd female champion and is well positioned, as is Greg Foulger.

Two previous champions sit ominiously in the top 10 - Barry Plummer and Soozie plus one of our most consistent performers, John McGowan. Oakers, Nobby, Dewberry, Tatlock, Singleton and Munden are all going to have to produce fantasy form that they have not been capable of before.

Jason is another N&R rookie as is Sarah, whilst Aaron, Chris Wright, Shay and the father and son Long team each have a couple of years experience but what about an American winning the most famous fantasy football league in the world? Tim and Frank have had a fantastic 31 weeks and Steve Black I think is a good outside bet, he finished last couple seasons very strongly indeed.

Anyhow, after week 31 Bollocks to insurance lead from Gooner to win league. Glasgow kiss are 3rd, with a little gap to our Mexican candidates Boys on tour. Towels on the bench are 5th with Loads of Roubles 6th.

It has been 6 years since 2Infinity & beyond won the N&R title, and they are 7th, 19 points above Soozie's succulent sizzlers. Hot Pink Center are 9th, with Guinnes & eggs and Gunners Bandits tying for 10th.
