Now in his seventh season , usually spotted circling the drain, with him being married and kid on the way I cannot expect anything but another poor showing. Unlikely to threaten in any competitions but makes the numbers up Current odds WHATEVER YOU WANT
Steve Butler
Like the in laws he continually comes back just when you thought he was gone for good. Just like his entry into stat attack his form is a little yo yo. Did win the Stat Attack many years ago but may have to live on past glories. Current odds 20/1
Martin Davies
Reasonable season for Mart last year, he owns the mini marathon and got lucky to be paired with the Prophet in the Pairs. Always a good bet for a trophy (particulary now that there is so many). Is a class act, always likely to be there abouts...if only he could stop showing New York bias, that often effects his chances . Always likely to be thereabouts, solid performer Current odds 6/1
Alan Hancock
The 'Pigskin Prophet' is a 4 time winner however has been out of form of lates and maybe his winning days are behind him.. Won the pairs with Mart last year It is only a successful season if the Pigskin lifts the Stat Attack...that is how he is measured by his fans. Unfortunately he is handicapped to the hilt, has high maintenance wife and toddlers, not to mention doing this bloody website. Tries to be flamboyant with the naps which keeps Stes amused but doesnt bring home the bacon
Current odds 13/2
Dave Hancock
The 'Californian Walrus' is now in his 9th Year. Has showed up promisingly in the previous years however last year was always struggling ending with nothing. Fond of picking the Raiders and that could be his downfall. Obvious chances for the Nap King Trophy or Pigskin Trophy and will no doubt put up a bold show again this year but as usual may not last home. He may do well this year but I wouldn't put my shirt on him...it wouldn't fit. He will go head to head with Todd for Bragging rights, hardly a serious competition though!! Current odds 8/1
Pete Hollins
Has continually dumbfounded his critics. Although, by his own admission he is not a student of the form books, his instinct often steers him to the winners. Previous winner so has to be respected. However a risky proposition could be last or first. His best chance would appear to lie in competition based on pure luck, maybe the Mini Marathon or Pairs could be to his liking. Current odds 25/1
Max Krangle
Max confounded the judges last year with a fantastic performance. Obviously goes well when fresh so unlikely to repeat this year. Based in Switzerland has more knowledge on Yodelling than NFL. If he wins again this year I will go cuckoo!! Current Odds 33/1
Dudley Mills
Now in his 8th year. Peeple say he is here just to make the numbers up, I think that is being over generous...he is here purely so that Lee is not the least knowledgeable!!! Current odds 33/1
Bob Munro
Won the first Stat Attack trophy but hasn't been seen since. Cruelly nicknamed 'Basement Bob' at one stage, however he seems determined to live up to his name. Last year he tried a new tactic of trying to pick the winners? Bob is still searching for the ultimate strategy, letting his wife and kids do his picks is all that he has come up with so far !!. Always likely to hand his picks in late but even if they were the next day they would still be wrong!! Current odds 33/1
Gary Pettet
Not usre at this stage whether Gary will be a late entry. Hopefully he will join us this year just for comic value
Current odds 33/1 (with a run) Withdrawn rule 4 applies, withdrawn during last orders.
Tommy Rivers
Tommy was a bridesmaid last year, following up a stella year previously. He is unlikely to continue with this form for much longer proving that Stat Attack is about luck. Has a great voice for reporting but is unlikely to be announcing himself as the winner this year. Current odds 6/1
Lee Simon
Lee's season last year was over quicker than Fulham's. When it comes to American Football he is about as much use as tits on a warthog. I keep introducing new trophies to try and keep everyone in with a chance of something..and last year he came good winning the nap king and tied the Pigskin .Always popular if he is circling the drain..fingers crossed. However is expected to keep on improving as Alex and Seb do his picks for him Current odds 10/1
Stes Wareham
A class act who ended up with a fat zero. Out to make amends this year and likely to be up there with the pace and has the ability to stay the distance and has that touch of class to burn up the track. His downfall could be his occassional flambuoyant picks. Winning is not good enough it has to be with style. So last year he won fuck all but with style!! Current odds 9/2
Todd Aupperle
Now in his 3rd year was knocking on the door in a couple of the minor trophies. His fans are expecting a big performance from him this year, jeez are they likely to be disappointed. Todd is of German extraction apparently related to Bismark and yes he will be going down big time like the bismark, sunk without a trace!! (Notice at this point I avoided theStan Boardman they bombed our chippie during the war routine). Like the Chargers likely to struggle and may find the company too hot!! Works with the Californian Walrus so they can have a mini competition between themselves, when they find they are too far adrift to contend!!! current odds 25/1
