So, at last, this is the full list of runners and riders for TFF 2007. Over 50, the biggest and best uptake in the history of TFF.

The Gates of Heaven are open.

This thread will only be added to when people die, so remains closed.

[Lord Football]

Ali, Muhammad
Biggs, Ronnie
Freud, Lucian
Hawking, Steven

Both Lucian Freud and Les Paul are unique picks, making their first appearance in FF.

Corbett, Ronnie
Doherty, Pete
Finney, Tom
Forsyth, Bruce
Loaf, Meat
