“Fred’s dred baby, Fred’s dred…”
It was a pretty average week this week, even Mr 2-0 sat happily in the middle on 20 points.
Bah.
But average it was not at the top of the weekly pile – it was a right ol’ ding dong!
Only eight players breached 30 points or more and 3 of them produced our very own Super Sunday…
Andy K claimed top spot with a double whammy of correct scores via Newcastle & Sheff Utd.
Then Paul S retorted with a 5 pointer at Brighton.
Exciting eh?!
On to Monday then, and at half time, Lee Ford 38 (5) couldn’t have possibly envisaged his 1-3 prediction coming in (it only happened cos West Ham are even more inept than us btw…) but come in it did!
Those five points propelled him to the top and the £20 prize was claimed!
Bravo!
Just in time for that overpriced mulled wine in the Christmas markets then.
Or not…
Thirteen of us suffered the nightmare before Christmas this week.
As Mr 2-0 lorded it on 20 points, we hit the misery of not even getting to 15 points.
Six of us didn’t register a correct score.
Only one though didn’t get into double figures…
That was you in Sweden, Anders Hoglund 9 (0)
Skol?
Correct Score of the Week:
I’m sayin’ nowt…most popular score was Toon’s 2-1 win over Southampton– 31 of youse got that!
Eleven were all over the pretty obvious 0-3 to Liverpool
8 were well away with the 1-3 away win for Arsenal
Seven got Brighton’s “Desmond” with Wolves
5 thrilled at the thrilling Blackpool 3 Fleetwood Town 1
Five more banked the five point 2-2 betwixt Millwall & Nottm Forest
Sam C & Paul S lapped up the injury time joy of Cardiff 3 Barnsley 2
Paul C secretly said prayers the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Vicarage Road
Lee F said “Look at me! Look at me! Yes! Me! Meeee!” for his Reading 2 Birmingham 3
However, this week’s best correct score goes to Sam Arora for his I-knew-the-Barlinnie-Bird-would-shake-it-up inspired, Everton 3 Chelsea 1!
Bet of the Week:
Nick Hogwood was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 10 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
And guess what?!
He went big, and…
Boom!
Newcastle to beat Southampton & BTTS – who scored the winner??! : )
Luton to beat Wigan – what a comeback that was – last minute euphoria!
Colchester v Salford BTTS – damn!
So, £9 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd meaning it’s on £18.96 for the season – sweeeet!
Tom Morley is at 45th this week….
Thomas, I need your 3 team treble by Friday, please!
Table News:
Nick Hogwood moves up one place to the summit, 6 points ahead of defending champion Pete B who in turn is six points ahead of Neil O in third…
Two crashed the Top Ten.
“Never Enough”:
Norman Lee slips one place to the bottom, four points behind Jamie F, who in turn is 8 points adrift of Andy S…
