GD,
Thank you for your time and effort on the competition. In view of my desire to transfer to the girls team, I will require you to provide clinical evidence with any refusal of my request....
only joking

storm caller, your request to transfer to the girls team is denied! please remove the lipstick and high heeled shoes at once, and put down the babysham and go back to your guinness.
:-)
Teams will need to start choosing a Team Captain and maybe a second-in-command.

oh goody, should be able to lose it faster.....oh sorry,what did you say 're-read the rules, that's not the idea,' OK.
What's that bit about profit...I'll just look that word up then before we start, that's associated with shares it is?

I would like to propose Socs for leader of the Gentlemens Club.
In any case I think it should be someone with experience of picking a winning stock occasionally.

My vote is with Little Woman (for us ladies) as our captain.

Hi Stockbunny, I guess my post above may have 'frightened' you to my trading skills (well you're right!) but I was only jesting, realllly. LW was a little tentative about even having time to play, hence I've taken over FTSE game, but although I havent broken her legs yet (previous joke) I may have to twist her arm. As LW is so busy I would like to second yourself or Hilary as Captain but does anyone want to volunteer? That'll make it easier for us to know who wants to do it. R we going to swap emails to discuss our investment choices?

No the bunny is sadly too busy with the tea-rooms to take this job on
Amberjane, plus she is extremely impulsive and unpredictable
and would be a bad choice.
Thanks for the thought but lets see if anyone is prepared to take it on
inc. LW - after that if we draw a blank...well I don't know....

Little Woman this is not like you, you have always been reliable and on the ball. I am sure that if you need help some of the girls would be only too pleased to assist, even if it is by email or t/phone. I know that you would only need to ask. All the best

Waiting to hear whether Hilary picks up the gauntlet then - she is the oracle on chimneypots, and that's good enough for me.

I'm sure Hilary would make a great Team Captain (especially in high-heeled shoes)
Remember that the job of Team Captain is not really that difficult, there only responsibility is to post their teams stock selections in the first weekend of the game, and then make any trades if any?(one per weekend) for the remaining 9 weeks.
poochies game tips:
Each active team player could have a share of the million fund to put into their choice of stock which they then give to TC.
A team could invest all funds into just 1 or 2 stocks, or a few favs.
you could save some of the funds for a future hot stock.
there is only 10 weeks in the game so choosing a penny share with a large spread might be a no no!
