As Friday 3rd May approaches I am reminded of a night in Perth when Ben Stein emotionally assured me that "It is inevitable that some defeat will enter into even the most victorious life. The human spirit is never finished when it is defeated, it is only defeated when it surrenders"

Has @Gringo done a Rangers and thrown it away with the finishing line in sight or will CDN Girl falter having taken the advantage with one week to go. The only thing certain is they definitely didn't need this pressure with such a pivotal weekend on our own clubs history. Week 34 CDN Girl: 277.80 Gringo: 269.00 The Caley One: 218.10 Caleyjag: 211.80 Jodie Carnie: 196.50 Scotty: 193.00 Robert: 188.00 MrCaleyjag: 168.40 NOHO: 130.20 Mrs Gringo: 125.50 The Mantis: 121.50 Caley Canary: 86.50 Caley Braveheart: 82.30 SOS: 81.50 Old Caley Girl: Bankrupt Crown Jaggie: Bankrupt IHE: Bankrupt Wyness101: Bankrupt Joonya: Bankrupt 4/19 correct 4/14 correct

Here we are, the final week of the NAPs 2023/24 season. Only two people realistically remain in the hunt for the title, CDN Girl and @Gringo so best of luck to both. Championship League 1 League 2

This will be fun. Going for the 'tap in' with the Arabs last week could have been my downfall. Now, do I go tactical in the final round (didn't work last time out) or go for it? Whatever happens I never expected to be fighting for the NAPS Bragging rights title a few months ago. It's been fun and I thank you again for keeping this competition going. I know it's been a struggle for you. Well done.

Plans for a battery storage facility at Essich. Blows a bit of a hole in the argument that Fairways was the only site available locally where they could get access to the grid.

There wasn’t a lot wrong with the penalty on Saturday. It was low and not too far from the corner. To me, a good save rather than a bad penalty. As someone said above, their goalie has saved the last four penalties he has faced. We are not in this mess because Billy has had a couple of penalties saved, and he should not be being singled out.

We should all remain positive If results go our way and we finish 8th or above then Dunc has done what he was tasked which is avoid relegation and finished where many considered our expectations. If we fail to get 8th place we go into the play-offs where he can still fulfill that objective, but brings us 4 additional games of football and thus reduces the often tedious downtime between end of season and the next lot of matches to get invested in (although we do have the Euros this summer).

Good arable farmland might not be as important than green space for walking dogs or sledging

I don't think they ever suggested it was the only place in existence with a connection to the grid. Just the only one that ICT could make use of. Interesting to hear the HC response to the one in Essich as it is 4 times the size of the Fairways one. I expect that the loss of green space in this case will be unconscionable.

It was at Fairways because that’s where the club were offered land for little or no cost, as well as it having access to the grid.
