Dear All,
As another exciting weekend of Fantasy Football approaches, it's time once again to look at the scores on the doors in the DITB Premier and Conference Leagues.
In the Premiership, The Blue Monkeys have taken over the top spot and look likely to remain there, having witnessed Chelsea's ruthless demolition of Arsenal.
Yes the blues are looking like strong contenders for both titles - but while Chelsea have experience of winning the top prize, Brother Shields has only 'won' the Dalkon Shield to date - the prize, you may remember, for the king of mid-table mediocrity.
Undoubtedly, the Monkeys have come a long way since those halcion days and Shieldsy has a burning determination to succeed - but it remains to see if he'll have a burning hole in his keks once the pressure is on.
There are some wiley campaigners on his tail, including the Grapes of Raff and the professor's Ibiza Town FC, just waiting for The Monkeys to slip up.
Probably The Best, in his first premier league season, is holding his own (not for the first time I hear!) in fourth position, having won a Conference League / FFA Cup double last season. Brother Stevenson has shown already that he has bottle and can't be discounted for the title at this stage.
In the relegation zone, Cherry United are bottom of the table, one point behind the Busted Sofas and eight points behind Kirbs Crawlers and defending champion Harpic Amsterdam.
Brother Molloy's title win of last season is already looking like a total fluke - but there is a long way to go and plenmty of time to turn things around.
In the Conference League, Joey's Monsters have set a furious pace and are almost 50 points clear of second place. Brother McCabe is a hot favourite to escape the cess pit this season while the rest fight it out for the remaining two places.
And a close battle it is too with just 30 points separating the next nine teams.
Already, Con Villa looks stranded at the bottom of the table while Paddy Sulls' LICENSE TO ROAM team doesn't look like it will be roaming out of the relegation zone any time soon.
Like father like son, Cherry Junior's Red Cherry Devils, despite an excellent score this week, have that look of relegation fodder about them.
Top scorers this week were KFC Academical on 64 points, ahead of The Grapes of Raff on 63 and the aforementioned Red Cherry Devils on 62.
Arsenal fans LICENSE TO ROAM and Kirbs Crawlers scored just 2 and 5 points respectively, while Musgy's Barber clocked up 10 points.
So, apart from Joey's Monsters, the tables remain quite tight and the chairman's tip is don;t panic - so much can happen in one week.
The season is still but a pup and won't be over until the fully grown beast barks.
Until next week my friends.........
