This Weeks Winner Is Kris Ridgway

POW doesn't remember his dreams, his dreams remember POW! POW could get up here and tell you all about the famous people he's met and the momentous occasions he witnessed, so he's going to. Tom Cruise owes POW a steak dinner, POW punched Moses square in the jaw and yes POW was the real first man on the moon using only a bit of hose and 49 paper clips. Anyway on with the show(?) with the obvious exception of POW, who due to a bet he won with Merlin never ages, every man knows the depressing sting of that first player to be younger than them who announces themselves as a football super star. The moment this apple cheeked lad springs of the bench and scores a wonder goal to show just how bright there future is all men are united in two thoughts, the first is christ I'm old and the second is one of pure jealousy. Youth coming through a club and debuting in the first team is genuinely greeted with optimism. His first touch creates a new hero and a blank slate that could turn into the next Tom Finney, Beckenbauer or even Pele, of course more than likely they will turn into the next Michael Ricketts, Luke Chadwick or even Frank Sinclair.

Speaking of youth, the Predicta Leagues youngest/tallest member continues his barnstorming second half to the season. What was once destined to end in bottom 3 disappointment now looks like finishing in top half optimism. While Kris may have left it to late for this season, if he can continue this form he will truly be a force to be reckoned with next year.

Round of applause for you Kris
