    Fat Jockey Yankee's 2023 - Captain's Required!



    Hello Fat Jockeys,

    As plenty of you know, we have a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Overall Fat Jockey Yankee each year for the festival, that we have captains for, that pick the final selections for THE WHOLE FORUM to back for the 5 yankee's in pretty colours above.
    • That means we need 5 captains.



    The deadline for the all the yankee's to be decided is usually the Sunday before (will be 12th March 2023). This is to allow people to see them, back them and still be able to live their life, as it is just a bit of fun



    However, the captains need to be in place, and we're starting this much later this year ....


    Traditionally, it is an honour bestowed to "new" members, that have signed up in the last 12 months. I see no reason to abandon that this year .... if we have enough volunteers of course.




    ....so who wants to put their hat in the ring to potentially become a FJ legend and create history as a winning captain...... (rarer than you'd think/hope!)



    If we have more than 5.... I'll pick the captains using the random Wheel Spinner or maybe even a Duck Race!


    Volunteers by Sunday at 11pm please

    Will announce the captains and we can crack on



    Last years captains and selections here for reference: https://www.fatjockey.com/forum/fat-...nal-selections




    OK ... here we go ......

      Given the overwhelming interest so far.... I'd say you're a slam dunk

        That would be awesome but it's early days and I'm certain that there will be more entrants than days racing lol

            As a patron, a strong case.

            I actually think we had a long spell allowing no new people as I wasn't about for 6 months.... so might do it first come first serve at this rate ....

                  I'll throw my hat into the ring sir! I'm still but a claimer but willing to wear that FJ armband proud.

                  Feel like i need a motivational pledge...

                  Well, let me tell you what I see. I see pride! I see power! I see a bad-ass mother who don't take no crap off of no bookie!

                  and if that quote doesn't work for you...
                  Quack. Quack. Quack!
