Chaucer director Mark Graham is our QBE Fantasy Football Manager of the Month for November.

He racked up a whopping 84 points - a new monthly record.

The team is packed with stars such as John Terry, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, but Kevin Doyle proved the joker in the pack.

The Reading striker is the league's second highest scorer and lifted Mark four points clear of the competition for November.

Mark's success proves the worth of transferring players with a view to upcoming games. He says: "I picked up Doyle after looking at Reading's fixture list and he's proven a winner."

And that team name? Expanding Funnel of Doubt...a Jean-Paul Satre quote, peut-être? Actually, no. "It's an actuarial term," confirms Mark.

But there's no doubt that Graham has his eyes on the main prize - Manager of the Season and the £50,000 prize from QBE.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
