Have Cake, Eat Cake

My fantasy football team is called Have Cake, Eat Cake - last year's competition between the office proved a lot of fun, even if Comrade H did end up walking away with it by several hundred clear points. I finished a solid second.

Unfortunately, Teh Grauniad has chosen not to run a Fantasy Football League for the coming season (although they are planning something for the World Cup in 2010), so I'm investigating instead the 'official' Fantasy Premier League, but the interface is nowhere near as slick and polished as the Grauniad's incarnation.

Season's End

The Guardian runs a Fantasy Football league each Premier season, and this past one saw a group of us in the office all sign up, and create our own mini-League.

It would be nice if modesty prevented me from saying that I placed a solid, respectable 2nd (out of 6), although I have to admit that Colleague H set up an unassailable lead early on, and just kept on edging ahead in the league week on week.

So, FWIW, Have Cake, Eat Cake managed to garner 4,375 points for the season. Nationally, that put me in 5,388th place (out of 91,000 entrants). Respectable for a first outing, but the 'Cake will be looking to improve in 09/10...
