“it’s nearly May and the weather…jeeeez!”
Greetings from a train travelling to Oporto from Lisboa! (yes, the wifi works Avanti!).
As we close in on another season, the madness arrives once again…
But for all the “chancey” predictions, only 5 players scored more than thirty points this week.
Andy F put in a sterling effort with 19 point-scoring predictions, George T is possibly rueing not predicting on the Friday night festival of football the Emirates and my mum, well, she scored over twenty points…and how!
Jazz S recalled the halcyon days with a couple of five-pointers that took him close to the £20 weekly prize.
So, who was at the top?
Well, we have another double weekly winner amidst us!
Neil Osborne 40 (8) has a brace of injury-time goals to thank this time round – Bristol City’s 91st minute winner & the 94th minute own goal equaliser for PNE to be precise.
Well done Señor O, can you predict an away win at the Etihad tonight?!
Meanwhile, the madness at the other end of the scale, was off the scale!
Twenty nine of you failed to score more than 15 points and seven of those didn’t have a single correct score between them – ooof!
Greg F, Dom W & Suman K didn’t get out of single figures.
But their shame was spared by Dan Clarke 7 (0) who tipped us all off on What’s App – which is kind of a jeopardy spoiler?
Correct Score of the Week:
Amazing stuff players…most popular score was Fulham’s 2-1 win over Leeds – 31 of youse got that!
Seventeen got Man City’s 3 goal semi-final demolition of Sheffield Utd
5 decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards at Palace. And they did…
Patricia F & Debbie L made us all green by happening upon Burnley 1-2 QPR. Wait, what???!
Mark S & Sam A just knew Ipswich would keep a clean sheet for a 0-3 at The Posh
Pete C obviously guessed Crawley would beat Hartlepool 0-2
Gareth M saw his typo come good on the game at Birmingham
Deepak B said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Charlton 2 Morecambe 3
However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Patricia Fernandez for her out-of-chaos-eventually-comes-order inspired, Liverpool 3 Nottingham Forest 2!
Bet of the Week:
Rich Lee was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 10 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
And guess what?!
He must have moved to Germany cos we didn’t hear from him…
So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th leaving it on £5.27 – just about get you a pint then…
Jason Morris is at 45th this week….
Jay, I need your 3 team treble by Friday morning, please!
Make The Syndicate proud!
Table News:
Dan Wayman is looking good to retain his title, 25 points ahead of Charlie H who, in turn, is two points ahead of Peter M in third…
Three crashed the Top Ten!
“Hold Me Now“:
Patricia Fernandez stays bottom, but now only nine points behind Lily T who, in turn, is 1 point off John J…
Highest climber this week, up a whopping 44 places is Neil Osborne – honourable mentions go to George T (+18), Andy F (+25), Tom M (+15), Mark S (+19), Jazz S (+29), and Julian F (+17).
“Watching”:
