A-hem. Completely mentally, but with purpose it has been decided that all the teams in PASSJAMS this year (plus 3 guest teams) will enter TWO Cup tournament's under different codes to settle a long running argument on which is the better (though we already know that of course). Teams from PASSJAMS will compete against teams from The Large Banana run by Paul Oxley, first in The Service Outage Cup here under PASSJAMS rules and ALSO in the mirror of this tournament in The Whistling Canary Cup under Large Banana Rules. So, without further a-do here is the first round, the 3 'new' teams are managed by Alan Ferris, Douglas Arthur Newton and Anthony King. Who will be the ultimate winner?

Draw for the second round, played 3rd/4th January 2000


Cunningly, 8 teams from PASSJAMS and the same from The Pointless Banana went through to
round 2, so it was possible to seed the teams so PASSJAMS teams were all drawn against
The Useless Banana League. Draw took place at FF Headquarters on 22nd Dec, and panned 
out as follows. Date will be announced in due course, we're waiting for the ridiculous
and utterly luckless Banana League to catch up. Never likely to happen that, is it?

Draw for the semi-finals, to be played 26-28th February

Tragically, only one PASSJAMS team remains. Fortunately, it's mine. So the
draw this time round, is completely random and panned out as follows.....

Draw took place live at FF HQ, evening of 15th February.


               Falls To Climb        6   v    11     You're Bad and you know you are

The Grand Final, to be played 11-13th March

Bollocks. Both teams are from The Banana. So be it....



               Smith you Silly Fool   3   v   5    You're Bad and you know you are
               Malcolm Blick                       David Peake


So the pretender to the French Throne, Davor Peake, wins the first ever (and probably ONLY)
Service Outage Cup (sponsored by CICl4SZ, CICSLSL, IMS1 etc...) There's a picture of his
trophy below, we might even get one of him with it soon. It's OVER - at last.



These are the three guest teams players;

Douglas - Flowers/Watson,Atherton/Wetherall,Hreidesson/Morris,Dominguez,Euell,Johnson/Ferguson,Rousell
Mr Ferris - VanDerGouw/Kimble,Charles/Hogh,Shaw/Xavier,Bakke,Butt,Foe/Soskjaer,Booth
