e You had to see it to believe it, this title only comes up for grabs every 4 years and it came down to the last kicks of extra time to settle it!  Alex Davey adds the only trophy missing from his cabinet in dramatic style from newcomer Dan Brown.  See World Cup tab for more details.

11.05.2010 NDP 2009/10 AWARDS

Always a day tinged with sadness as we realise another season has passed in the blink of an eye ... but what a season, packed full of thrills and spills and this year we have a fantasy football fix to get us through to the start of the new season with a world cup fantasy league! (details TBA).  Anyway a number of results and awards get decided after the final day so i'll do my best to run through as concisely as possible, also look out at the bottom of this mail for the outstanding prizes to be delievered, the Chairman apologises for some being so late but I promise you'll have them before the World Cup starts!
 
MONTH 9
Not content with just the intermediate playoff shield, Dean Wait doubled up on the final day of the season leaving the Chairman in his wake and winning a first ever monthly title!  He headed the table for a long while in month 9 and a committed NDP manager for the last few seasons this is a well deserved maiden title!
SEASON TABLE
What a debut season, 2 monthly titles and he now adds the most coveted prize in the NDP ... the season title!  Stuart Lake has come in and taught the old hands a thing or two, Mark Scott and Phil Grant put in great season efforts but couldn't catch Stuart who spent over half the season leading the way!
3 MONTH LEAGUE
No cash prizes for this one, but a title that gets recorded for history purposes nonetheless as it's generated by AOL and can be viewed through a link at the bottom of our friends league.  Month 9 turned this table on it's head as the Chairman and Dean Wait both overtook long time leader Stuart Lake and it was Dean with his monumental 214 points in month 9 who clinched it!
MANAGER OF THE YEAR
NDP HQ have decided without a shadow of a doubt that with 2 monthly titles and the season title 2009/10 Manager of the year is Stuart Lake!
YOUNG MANAGER OF THE YEAR
Another NDP HQ award which although termed young manager of the year is essentially for the most successful "new" NDP manager in their first season ... and yes you've guessed it, it can only go to one manager in an amazing first season ... Stuart Lake!

10.05.2010 NDP 2010 PLAYOFF CHAMPIONS PHIL GRANT & DEAN WAIT

Well what an end of season showpiece this season some hugely entertaining playoff match ups which culminated in an absolute classic in the final ... let's start with the intermediate shield for the positions 9 -16 qualifiers where Dean Wait romped to victory by 51 points to 35 over the Chairman in a match that once Burnley and Arsenal started scoring it turned out to be a walk in the park for Dean.  In the playoff trophy final however it couldn't have been more tighter, scoring was lower than the shield finalists no doubt caused by the unbelievable tension of playing for such a huge prize and it was our sponsor Phil Grant edging out defending playoff champion Alex Davey by 28 points to 27!!
 
Huge congratulations to Phil and Dean who walk off with these very special end of season titles, all winners and runners up receive prizemoney for which the Chairman will be in touch very soon.

Seemed like an eternity but after last nights fixtures the NDP playoff semi finals have come to an end ... forget your general elections this is where the real action is !  In the Playoff Trophy, two very tight games were played between 4 of the NDP heavyweights.  The defending Playoff trophy winner Alex Davey is into the final again after defeating season table leader Stuart Lake 71 - 60 ... he will meet arch rival and our sponsor Phil Grant in the final who scraped past Luke Holland 66 - 63 !!  In the Shield, The Chairman got past Dale Owen 96 - 56 and Month 9 Leader Dean Wait beat Laura Allen 88 - 63.  Full details and the complete draw is attached.

Rob Greenslade (65, 161) 96 v Dale Owen (72, 128) 56
Dean Wait (75, 163) 88 v Laura Allen (58, 121) 63

06.04.2010 MONTH 8 WINNER IS ALEX DAVEY!!!

I have barely recovered from the mentally draining month 8 contest but I am pleased to say (and i mean that!) that the month 8 winner is that trophy magnet Mr Alex Davey!!!
 
A significant weekend of action with the title swinging in 3 directions, I paid the price for a trip overseas expecting my players to perform without me and I was badly let down ... the opportunity for back to back monthly titles was there but my players cracked under the pressure and some cast iron clean sheets were easily eroded ... so with the Chairman out the picture it was nothing more than a victory precession for Alex??? but wait !!! putting in a huge final weekend was Luke Holland ! Big midfield performances from Young, Malouda, Kranjcar backed up by another clean sheet from Sorenson put Luke ahead going into the final few games of the weekend! Alex hit back with 2 Adam Johnson assists followed by a Steven Gerrard strike on the Sunday to take the title with a record breaking score of 209 points!  Second was Luke (207) in what will go down as an NDP epic !!!

30.03.2010 MONTH 8 UPDATE DAVEY LEADS INTO FINAL WEEK

This is it ... THIS REALLY IS IT ... NDP drama at it's highest, we enter the final week with two greats going toe to toe in search of the month 8 title !! Alex Davey leads with a massive 173 points 2 ahead of the Chairman (171) and the historical impact of wherever the title goes is huge ... if Alex wins he takes a 7th monthly title equalling the Chairmans record ... but if the Chairman wins then it will be back to back monthly titles which has only been achieved once before by of course Alex Davey! So the stakes are high for both of us, much banter has been exchanged throughout the month and the tension, speaking on behalf of both of us is unbearable ... but thats what we play the game for!!!

Now having built up this titanic two way title clash this it would be very amiss of me not to mention the threat sitting back in third ... 3 time monthly winner Luke Holland is only 10 points back (163) and will be looking to spoil the party

11.03.2010 CHAIRMAN WINS MONTH 7

Month 7 has finally come to a close, with a new monthly champion this season! Yes many congratulations to our Chairman who led most of the way and finished victorious with 142 points which helps him to push for the top 8 which he is striving for.  "Unlucky Ronnie Richmond" again, narrowly missing out on top spot finished 2nd with an impressive 134 and Tony Gilbert on 132. 

Steve Gray NDP Vice Chairman

01.03.2010 CHAIRMAN LEADS INTO FINAL WEEK OF MONTH 7

Tough weekend ! But the Chairman is still out in front and extends his lead slightly moving onto 134 points thanks to a brace from Frank Lampard, still second is Ronnie Richmond looking dangerous on 120 but in third and it's obviously a month for the establishment is Vice Chairman Mr Steve Gray after a shrewd Carlos Tevez transfer!

22.02.2010 MONTH 7 UPDATE

What a great weekend of action and im very pleased to say the Chairman leads the NDP in month 7!!! In a desperate bid to avoid failing to qualify for the playoffs for the first time in my career the players are pulling out all the stops for me to get themselves on the scoresheet .... so it's the Chairman leads with 83 pts, followed in 2nd by Ronnie Richmond (77) and third is that NDP heavyweight Luke Holland (61) !
 
The action rolls on with a solitary midweek fixture (Man Utd v West Ham) and a nearly full set of weekend fixtures minus Aston Villa and Man United who are playing the Carling Cup final .... so plenty of opportunity for you to put pressure on my players!

08.02.2010 DALE OWEN WINS MONTH 6!!!

I thought he would be distracted by his passion for sheep, but no in what proved to be an long running and gruelling month 6 it is our international manager Dale Owen who triumphs and claims his very first monthly title by quite some distance!!!  Oliver Laity was leading into the final weekend and whilst his team played steady they finished on 181 points which pushed them back to 4th on goal difference from a resurgent Dean Wait in 3rd and also on 181 points in runners up spot our season table leader Stuart Lake who adds another £3 to his impressive money list total !  But taking the winners cheque with a massive 196 points is Dale, a shrewd Didier Drogba transfer and some heroic defensive displays, namely Mark Schwarzers double clean sheet in the final week took Dale beyond the chasing pack !!
 
So a proud moment in the Owen household, but someone even more pleased than Dale himself is Alex Davey!!! Why?  Well in keeping Stuart Lake back in second Dale has helped Alex protect his record as the only manager to win back to back titles!
