Tony posted this in the Transfer Forum and it is something I thought we could have a bit of fun with the concept.
I like the concept but feel we can turn it into a game of Top Trumps on the BBS. However we need categories that score on a one to ten basis. I have a couple of suggestions for categories but get your suggestions in and we'll go with the best five or six categories and then devise some form of Deluded World Cup bracket.
1. Sense of Entitlement
2. History (or lack thereof)
3. Lunactic megalomaniac richer than Crassus owner rating

For those who don't know, the Deluded World Cup is one of the world's oldest footballing competitions. Entry is reserved for those who are so far up themselves that they lose all concept of their place in the world, possessing an unshakeable belief in their own greatness, a status that can be seen by them and only them. Traditionally, Spurs have had this competition wrapped up by about mid-August (their reign of success in the Deluded World Cup in inverse proportion to their lack of achievement in the real world). This year, however, has seen a dramatic challenge by both Yer Actual West 'Am and the Geordie Nation™. The Hammers mounted an early challenge with their support (collective IQ of 25,000 BTec Builders' Certificates) declaring them 'Champions League certainties', following a couple of streaky wins in September. But Newcastle are mounting a more sustained challenge thanks to a supreme lack of awareness that their ability to top the news headlines every day in Newcastle is neutered somewhat by the total lack of interest in them elsewhere on the planet. Deluded World Champions-elect Spurs, however, remain odds-on favourites to lift their 42nd trophy (a 12" gold statuette depicting a bloke whining to a radio station phone-in). It's difficult to see anyone challenging their domination, given that there are now more people who recall the Viking raids on Saxon Britain than remember the last time Tottenham won the league. |
