Fat Jockey Yankee's 2025 - Captain's Required

[darlojim]

Personally, I'd love to see darlojim and Lobos run a yankee together - think there could be some hilarious fireworks in there


On a more serious note, who are the newbies apart from Yosser this year Kevloaf ? It feels like we haven't had that many so some of the more established faces may be needed through lack of possible nominations as much as anything else?

Id do that.. But he cant pick Majborough for the BANC ffs.

.. And no rum on school nights, this serious

…..just looking at the most recent Yankee and the regular posters on that thread, I think any of the following would be great; Quevega ComplyOrDie AaronLad Istabraq BuckingThe Trend darlojim Lobos

Come on guys, valued contributors & nothing like being volunteered.

The newbie thing works works and I know Kevloaf is keen for it to continue, it's a great opportunity for cyber stardom and instant FJ Hall of Fame status !

Are three excellent volunteers/nominations, I'm sure there are more, or perhaps one or two newbies from last year that weren't picked for the yankee ?
We're due one too....

I'm not new, but have never done one (think I lost a couple of virtual horse races/ wheel spins....). Always happy to put my hand up for something.

I would always advocate leading on one of these. I did one and it really brought me into the community proper.

I was gonna nom Yosser but I see that's already been done

[Kevloaf]

Could I make a suggestion?

But with the overall Yankee, could we try something different. 4 senior fat jockeys picking 1 each.
A few nominations here would be Saxon Warrior, Quevega ComplyOrDie Kevloaf (only because you're the owner, not your knowledge )
Something along the lines of this?

Haha, well you've had two goes at the captain yankee's haven't you, 2022 and 2024 and managed to get a placed part up I think last year ... harder than it looks

I can't remember who has been a profitable captain.... if I go back far enough, ah yes .... there he is .... Mr No Knowledge




I think we've got our 5 though haven't we ....

Touché.

I never claimed it was easy.

And I was swayed by the forum in my attempts

There is always the punterorplonker approach....

We are missing a Yankee!
I had the pleasure of doing the handicap Yankee last year.
