'Little did I think that 'Don Corleone' (my given name by Crofter), would need to try and shoot you all down again. When I was checking how well (or badly) I had performed last week in the KM and MM games, I first checked at KM, only to see that the star performer 'Cliffyg' had made reference to me selecting the words for June on the MM side. So I quickly switched back to the Sunday evening results for MM, to see that along with Rockfordill, I had managed to finish second, and as you have not been under the guns since September 2009, I have accepted Gen2's invitation to be your Mafioso manager for the next 5 weeks.
The first person who will be in my firing line will be Cliffyg, whose Essex Under 14 team I umpired in the sunshine last Sunday, having been burnt by it on Saturday, when I overlooked the use of Factor 10/20/30 whatever number. His team was successful in their game against Suffolk, and I suffered the usual hilarious abuse from him, about being blind, deaf and not able to count (one seven ball over down to me). He means well, and has a lovely black labrador, Jess, who you see as his avatar picture, except she is a few years older now and has a green collar.'

According to normal practice, for the everyday running of MM, I shall follow this rule on word length, in that each of my pre-selected link words contains at least four letters and at most eight letters. Stray outside this range and you will be wasting one of your attempts!
Each of the selected link words may go in front of, or behind my challenge word to make a new longer word or to make a well-known phrase or saying. The combination will never be a person's name.
The competition will officially close on Sunday Evening at 7.00pm, when gen2 will declare my pre-selected words and then apply the same rules for awarding points that have been applied during all MM Link Games in the past. My set of four words to have their links predicted should appear below at 9.00am.
