Our third update from the LDV Fantasy Football League. Congratulations to Elliott Mears, our Manager of the Month for October.
His team, Hart Broken Bilic, scored an impressive 183 points, just edging out Graham Bates’ Viennafoxes and Ross Pepper’s The Pepperpots, each with 182.
It’s an international break this week, so you have til 18 November to select your teams to start closing (or, in Sam Kay’s case – see below – extending) the gap.

A fantasy dream has happened: the BBC reports that “A long-awaited study into the links between football and brain damage will start in January, the Football Association has announced. The doctor who claimed former striker Jeff Astle died because of repeated head trauma is to lead the study. Dr. Willie Stewart says his report would aim to “provide some understanding of the long-term health impact of football within the next two or three years.” It will be titled “Football’s influence on Lifelong Health and Dementia Risk.”
They might also wonder why Nobbie Styles’ teeth fell out.

Alan Shearer is obviously influential. Newcastle United were foolish to omit him from the starting line-up, to the surprise and amusement of their opponents that week.
It might be useful to ask Peter Crouch for some medical tests, he has done a lot of headers. Meanwhile children under 10 years of age will be getting older.
I don’t think your comment about Nobby Stiles’ teeth in this context is in any way funny, Mr Underhill – especially given that he is seriously ill with dementia, as is his 1966 World Cup team mate Ray Wilson. Sorry, bad taste.
