THE Kenna chairman’s unrelenting commitment to running the world’s best London-pub based fantasy football league has been proved once again this week.
Just three days after putting on the league’s 12th annual auction, the chairman was in Prague testing out auction venues. It was here he made a remarkable discovery.
“I visited a bar on the old town, which boasts the best kept Pilsner Urquell in the city,” said the chairman. “And let me tell you, what a pint! As smooth and fresh as Ryan Giggs in the closing stages of a family get together.”
Brewed at nearby Plzen, Pilsner Urquell became the world’s first pilsner when Bavarian pioneers of lager worked with Czech brewers.
“Like cheddar cheese, pilsner is the most common variety of its type in the world,” opined the chairman after a couple.
“But like cheddar cheese, pilsner’s quality varies wildly and sadly most of it bland as hell. This pilsner is the original and the best.”
Kenna HQ wonks are claiming the discovery has more than vindicated the chairman’s decision to reduce prize money this year.
“The chairman is as pioneering as those early brewers,” said a source at Kenna HQ. “An auction in Prague would take the league to the next level.”
But critics of the chairman are unhappy just three days after the auction he appears to be using the league coffers to fund jaunts to the Continent by private plane.
