Great clue, Francis. Looking forward to your word next week

Hi all
Here I go again
Bent on causing trouble
And losing friends
and being accused of sour plums!!!!
1. Congrats Francis on winning
2. Thanks Paul for a word with possibilities
3. B U T I cannot see whats cryptic about Francis's clue!!!
4. It doesn't lead to football.
5. Knowing the answer first its easy to see some connection

Hi pressed the wrong button
6. To continue
7. In the absence of intersecting lights does Football suggest itself - I dont think so
8. Possible answers to Francis's clue are
9. Family Rows, Cakecutting, Insemination
10. ALSO There are no longer any divisions in the English Footb League ( 2 in the Scottish)
11. Football might be prone to corruption, scandal, bad behaviour but not divisions or leagues or cups or saucers.
12. I wouldn't make such a fuss ( its not like me says Mrs Thea) but the comp is about cryptic clueing.
13. I speak in peace and love and respect dear friends
14. YOURS THEA

Thea, am sure some of your criticism is justified.
However I look at CLUELESS as just a bit of fun without necessarily sticking to the strict interpretation of the rules. Still friends ?

Hi Francis
Thanks v v much for your kind post
I'm a bit of a pedant ( but only a bit!!!!)
Have a good day tomorrow.
Look out for my clue next week. HaHaHa!!!
Kind Regs
