    No cake?

    The most uplifting thread of the year.

    Between the morbid bookends of end of season collapse & transfer window disappointment.

    No Watford cake this year :(

    Now you have reminded me though of what we have to come in the next couple of months!

    A positive note, a good 9 months until our next post Christmas capitulation.

    Maybe 7.

    Shouldn’t there be a graph, or the suggestion of graph, in there?

    Good point, sadly my daughter is not following my statically bent, but my wife’s artistic skills.

    I will need to train up one my kids though to take over the batten one day!

    I’m not a professional statistician but I reckon we could take any of the existing Sawyer graphs &, with a little jiggling of the axes, create a perfect fit for any future season.

    COYH!

    Evolutionary minimalism. Darwin probably wrote about it somewhere.

    45 minutes have gone by and no one has fallen for it. This is a mark of the incredible sophistication of this forum.

    That is close to how I had pictured you David.
    Always thought you were a guy, but otherwise close.

    And adults... I saw an advert on the tube for for a manga exhibition at the British museum. £16. Expensive - but cheaper than watching your team lose 6-0! But free for under 16s so I think I’ll take my 3 kids

    When I wrote it I knew it looked wrong. But I would argue a Battenburg trumps any grammatical error.

    I love it, but marzipan divides opinion.
