It's Brackley Town, and a Trophy to win. Tuesday's happenings made me reach for the gin ! To count the goals I suppose Macc used fingers and toes ...... Bank on him like Williams & Glyn.

Lennie: do you need me to judge promptly, so that you can set a new rhyme for the replay, or shall we let this one run to cover both matches?
Entirely your call, Sir!

Right you are, Lennie.
Have been offline for much of today, with one thing and another, but will judge entries in the morning - if that is ok?

Right, then - with apologies for the delay, here are the votes from the Macc Jury...
Many thanks, as ever, to all who entered. And thank you, too, for being gentle with me when it came to crafting your final lines!
In third place, Lennie, for observing that A loss to the Saints will feel like a sin. Indeed, it would have done after what was an even game... although the prospect of a second midweek trip to Brackley in January is, frankly, nothing short of purgatory!
Runner-up this time is Countyfan, who raised a smile with He was late home so his wife put his tea in the bin! Truth be told, I was pretty peckish at the end of a long evening - although penalty shoot-out adrenaline got me through.
But, taking the Gold Medal... Eppers, and the comment that I was Doing well to keep his head, unlike Anne Boleyn. Funny and clever in equal measure (the line, not me), and also true, given that I had quickly to recover from an early first-half gaffe and keep tabs on what turned out to be my most demanding live Twitter assignment to date!
And, with the replay looming, it's back to Sir Len in the studio...

Thank you Lord Hatter of Macc.
Great decision, when all around were losing their heads.
Excellent win for Eppers who will now judge the replay limerick (already out there for you all).
Thanks for the bronze and well done CF for the runeers up spot. Thanks to everyone who entered. Fabulous quality again.

Woo hoo! Thanks, macc. Very pleased to be atop the podium. First time I've had the words 'funny' and 'clever' used in the same sentence as me, without the word 'not' appearing, so I'll take that! Well played all and thanks, len.

Wise judgement there, Maccy!
Well played, all and congrats to Lennie and countyfan on their podiums.
Congrats especially to Eps on a fine winning line!
Thanks as always to Lennie for an amazing job setting these up so quickly, particularly when the games are coming thick and fast!
Brilliant work, gaffer!
