Prediction League Prizes
There have been requests for Prediction League prizes. Although the Admins have generously doubled the previous year’s prize budget of £0.00, in order keep costs to a reasonable level, DATM members have been canvassed for donations to the prize pool. I’d like to thank all the donors for their support and generosity! Consolation Prize: Coming in last can be crushing to the soul and sow the seeds for future problems in life such as lack of confidence and a reluctance to participate in contests such as this fine one. To help overcome possible adverse effects of defeat, the last place contestant will receive an advance copy of Arterrier’s upcoming book ‘The Power of Positive Thinking’. This short, very short, very very short, booklet comes with a foreword by Terrier Park and is expected to be available at end of season. Unfortunately Arterrier is currently undergoing a temporary case of writers block and we have yet to receive a draft chapter, paragraph, sentence word, so optimism for publication is quite low (word is, trees everywhere appear to be quite relaxed). Sadly, a no-show may cause further harm to the bottom place person’s confidence and feeling of failure **DATM Prediction League accepts zero responsibility Third Place: The lucky 3rd place contestant will receive the riveting 3Pipe autobiography ‘My 15 Months in Exile: One Word Really Is More Powerful than the Sword’ . This is a heart wrenching tale of one man’s resurrection into a totally changed poster. Although extremely reluctant to talk or write about his DATM ‘holiday’, being one more inclined to forgive and forget, 3Pipe kindly offered to put his current project on hold, ’Lee Clark(e): Portrait of a Misunderstood Managerial Genius’, and provide us with this uplifting epic tale of his travels on the road to redemption. 2nd Place: Two tickets to the Huddersfield Town Football Club Testimonial Dinner for Stuart Webber. This one should be a corker. Grand Prize: To the lucky winner go all 25 volumes of Nick’s ‘Greatest Thread Titles’ anthology. Each volume is packed with over 200 pages of scintillating and somewhat cryptic titles, such as one of my all time favourites “Nothing To See Here…”. And as an added bonus, Nick has promised to supply the winner with Volumes 26 to 30, which will cover our first season in the Premier. (Potential writer’s block? Not going to happen. Trees everywhere are in total panic mode) But wait, there’s more! To help you decipher those thread titles, I’ve asked Nick’s BFF, Reverend Ted aka Ted Chippendale, to author an accompanying guide book ‘Thread Title Decoding in just 32,000 Easy Posts’. Ted has already sent us page 1 of his draft manuscript. Although it only consists of two words, I’m sure more will be forthcoming as the season progresses. There you have it folks. Prizes galore. Further suggestions for prize donations will be gratefully accepted. |

Blimey, that's absolutely amazing news! Fantastic gift. Many thanks to Club. Got to love what they've accomplished this past year and brought to all the fans.
I'd better get practicing with the spreadsheet and tabulating results. No pressure here then. Wouldn't want to mess up folks scores when so much is at stake.
