FPL finale!

As we close on the end of the season, it’s great to see things hotting up in the GBPL with serial winners Obi-Wan Kenobi making their usual late rush for the title but long-time leaders, Ange Management, holding firm at the top. The top10 are printed below. Also exciting to report that we are down to the last 16 of the cup, with a few staff scores to settle. It’s Duffield vs Henton and Joseph vs Mustafa on the agenda this game week. We’ve got pupil teams Mo Salahd (who thrillingly pipped Obi-Wan by80 points to 79 in the last round), Finding Timo and Taylor’s Swifts still in the hunt, but Ange Management looking ominous now for a possible double. We will keep you posted before we announce our prize-winners in a few weeks’ time. If you did win cups or spoons last year, please do return them to the office in the next fortnight.
