The Musketeers have won from strong teams and lost to strong teams; they have conquered weaker teams and lost to weaker teams (in this we are basing our judgment of a team's comparative strength or weakness on its rec· ord up to the time that it clashed with the Musketeers - ·which is A Soph's consulting "dope" and is, perhaps, a wobbly criterion°). Never­ theless, the Musketeers have had a hectic season. We believe this hectic season to have· been a good tonic for Musketeer fans. They had been witnessing extraordinary things Fables from a squad with the Musketeers' resources, for several years, and had begun to take things as a matter of course.
