TFF THE GRAND NATIONAL aka robroy's I GOTTA HORSE

[theo29]

while we wait to see what Tele Towers will be tempting us with for the new season there will be a sub plot in LDV connected with your team names and race course locations. Maybe one near where you live.

[theo29]

all is now known accompanied by assorted weeping & wailing in the new TFF thread. Fear not. The nags will be running at Aintree next April with the usual limit of 2 teams per FISOer. Code number coming shortly if you have not already been contacted by the organisers.

[theo29]

the Fanhub email produces its first result ! I will rely on this thread for a few days while deciding on the 'reward factor' Just in case you are not sure of the LDV code, NBFWU2RT.

[theo29]

the runners are beginning to sign in and the chances of bagging a horse greatly improved this season !. The top 4 at the end of each month, 8 x 4 will be balloted to produce 20 runners. Max 2 teams per FISOer.

[theo29]

NBFWU2RT is working well with 13 teams claiming some potential stable space and vetinerary attention. Constant attention needed at Tokyo by some likely owners who will probably appear on the final days.

Can you do a dressage version of this? Bring on the dancing horses

I GOTTA DANCING HORSE

Sign me up!

[theo29]

save him for STRICTLY or the Highland Games where he could be very useful.
Signing up is in your own hands. TFF code NBFWU2RT will welcome you. The last of the red hot momma's on the left is who ?

[theo29]

the murf pictures seem to be a major deterrent and he has not managed to sign in himself. NBFWU2RT IS THE CODE !

[robot]

I'm in

[theo29]

robot's pair puts 21 nags in the stables. No sign of an entry from that wild artist who has a surfeit of squads (he says) but does not quite know how to employ them.

[murf]

[theo29]

that horse 23 will turn heads in the paddock but to do the 30 jumps will be a diferent story. Just over 3 days left to add your equine fancies for the season ahead.

[theo29]

down to the last few hours before the players begin to 'strut their stuff'. There will be a field of 40 for the race next April and a few previous owners are still missing.......probably awaiting the very latest injury news and who might not be quite ready for the fray !

[theo29]

as we approach the end of week 1 with one of our horse owners in the top 10 overall I am wondering if some of those FISOers in the bid to be number 1 would like to try their luck here. Staying open for one more week. Max 2 teams.

[theo29]

our man Headers & Volleys with 122pts is 3rd overall, just 4 pts behind number 1 ! Can he keep it going ? 8 goals and a block defence somewhere. It will be hard to repeat but who knows, it could be you.!

That is Robot's team from the Block League. Was doing well so he did 5 transfers to go for MOTW.
Being in that league it is Public and you can now see the sold players on the bench too.

[theo29]

robot our current leading man has not yet had his goal line crossed and is 17th in the grand scheme of things. Private or Public is an option in this league so he is not too concerned who knows his line-up although that may change after the horses have run in April.

[theo29]

at the first International break our man robot is 33rd in TFF world just 60 points behind overall leader Frankie Frog3 . 302-242. Will he (or others improve after the break ?

[theo29]

month 2 opens after the International break & features CR7 (who might or might not) get amongst rthe points ! There is a horse to be won in week 4 & another in week 6. Will robot still be setting the pace ?

[theo29]

the week 4 horse was won by Arteta goes Loko (totally unknown to me !) with 64points. The week 6 winner will probably clinch it in the Monday game, Palace & Brighton. Who will it be ?
murf has a new post lauding 300 plus points. LDV's star is Headers & Volleys with 321pts in 251st position. There are 822 players in TFF with 300 or more points, but very few ever make an appearance in these threads !

[theo29]

Eze25 (a Palace fan) with 61pts claims the week 6 nag. Overall Headers & Volleys has 349pts and is in 477th spot overall. Arteta goes Loko still unknown but Super Furry Pants & murf's tenors are 3rd & 4th.

[theo29]

after 7 weeks, Headers & Volleys now 660th overall on 381pts. Adam & Eve It on 356 and a murf duo on 343. Another week of rest ahead !

[theo29]

chugging gently in the wake of overall Tff leader, Inittowinit 640pts is Adam & Eve It with 452(2027th place) Not far behind is a murf double, Tenors & Baritones and first week leader, Volleys & Headers.
With the final week of month 3, You'll never purr alone leads (she is a Liverpool fanatic) Whoever is the best monthly scorer gets a nag in the Aintree stable for April's GN.

[theo29]

the month 3 'nag' goes to The Dude Abides (200pts) with You'll Never Purr Alone on 199pts. Our league leader, Adam & Eve It 504pts (2153th) again followed by a murf double instruments 481 & 480pts.
Overall Tff leader My Name is now on 694pts with Goonerville5 on 687pts & Freddie Frog3, 676pts.

[murf]

Pretty shoddy by the rest of you folks if I'm 2nd and 3rd (with my 3rd and 4th best teams)

[theo29]

there will be 2 'nags' as prizes in month 4 (November). Halfway along it is 'the trumpet blowing' murf on 125, his tenor man, Allison Wonderland on 115. Super Furry Pants 113 & The Dude Abides 109.
If any of the last 3 respond to this post before the next set of games there is a 10 point bonus, just to make it interesting !

[happyhoppy]

Helen says hi!

[theo29]

Allison Wonderland gets a 10 point bonus so is now 'neck & neck' with murf's 'tenor man'. It pays to pay attention in LA DOLCE VITA !

[murf]

I'm paying a-tenor-tion
