French Open Starts Monday … Umm, I mean today!!!

Only two days to pick your fantasy team! Do it quick and you’ll have a chance to win my pick of the latest book releases in a genre of your choice. Open to adults and children. See how to enter in my previous post.

It’s free. It’s fun. Give it a go and liven up the next two weeks as you watch your team soar, stumble, fumble or crumble.

EDIT

OK, OK, so I got it wrong. The French sneakily started their Open Tennis tournament today (Sunday). There’d be none of that sort of behaviour at Wimbledon, I can tell you! How was I supposed to know they would do something ridiculous like start on a Sunday? Anyway, our mini league is already underway and it’s too late to join now – sorry.

Off to an early lead is the team chosen by S1lverb0a with Jeeves in second, my Random Backhanders in third, Pricey’s team in fourth and Joe Craig’s team bringing up the rear. I should say that Joe will probably be more happy than anyone after this first day as his is the only team not to suffer any casualties. Only two of his twenty players had matches today and they both won handsomely. Things look set to change rapidly over the next few days. Updates will be forthcoming.

Overall, the Trapped by Monsters average score places us 17th in the ranking of mini-leagues (there are 32 mini leagues taking part). Not an embarrassing start, people. Onwards and upwards.

Right, it’s on. My team is unbeatable. I think. Maybe. Well, I’ve definitely heard of some of my players.

When I picked my team I worked on the basis that the ‘itchs’ and the ‘enkos’ normally feature somewhere. If I’m honest I haven’t got a clue. I spent all the money I was given. I’m just hoping my team won’t disappoint. :-)
