Outrageous…

 

 

 

“Crystalised”:

There was were was were over 33% of fixtures that had goals scored in the 90th minute or later this week.

Yeah.

Really. (11, count ’em!)

Just about everyone was affected one way or another. Yep. Really. (net loss of 6 points for me – grrr)

 

So who benefitted then?

 

Thirteen players scored 30 points or more this week – well done youse!

 

The contenders?

Tim P was in nosebleed territory and has Wolves & Everton to thank for denying him the £20 weekly prize (at least ETH has gone now though, Timmy!)

Ben McK went really close courtesy of 92 minute “Correct Score of the Season” goal…

 

And that left a “The Syndicate” duo to duke it out for top honours.

 

A resurgent Tony M (remember him?) had a Super Sunday bar one crucial result that had the irony/coincidental debate police on full alert.

Richard Hirst 40 (7) matched his old mucker Tony blow for blow with an array of last kick correct scores, but it was the 92nd minute penalty at West Ham that sealed it for him!

 

Congrats Tricky, imagine Man Yoo doing over one of their own, eh?!

 

The Sweet Seven

Assists

N Clark (90′) – St Johnstone

Beto (90′ + 4) – Everton

Bowen (90′ + 2 pen) – West Ham

 

 

 

 

“Teardrops”:

Did you get stung by the added-on time mayhem this week?!

 

14 punters floundered on fifteen points or less.

Eight of them couldn’t muster a correct score.

Spoiler: no one had a single digit tally!

 

Propping up the rest this week were Elliot Davy & Rob Currin 10(0)

Ooof!

 

And just for the record (and a degree of sympathy – we’re nice like that), those late goals cost Elliot 8 (1) and Rob 12 (2)!

Go have a beer boys!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

My word…most popular score was Bromley’s last gasp 1-1 draw with Barrow – 29 of us got that!

 

Twenty landed on the two-two in North London on Sunday. The right side of North London…

17 were all over the 0-3 to the Celtic

Six revelled in the schadenfreude of Charlton’s late late show against Wrexham

Will O & Gary R (welcome!) lapped up the injury time joy of Brighton 2 Wolves 2

Danny B nabbed the form book upsetting Crystal Palace 1 Spurs 0

Kate S got the dull-all at Ashton Gate

 

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season goes to Ben McKeown for his I-couldn’t-be-any-further-away-from-Devon-but-us-Geordies-see-everything-man inspired, Plymouth Argyle 3 Preston North End 3!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Chris D was on “Bet of the Week” position 33rd in Week 4 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

 

“If Coldplay were playing in my back garden, I’d close the curtains.  But despite that, I’m going all ‘Yellow’ with this sure-fire winning selection…”

 

It went brown…

 

 

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd – oh well…

 

Orla McK, Simon T & Mr 2-0 are at 83rd this week…first out the hat was Simon!

 

Mr Goalscorer Challenge, I need your 3 selections by Friday lunchtime, please!

 

Let’s get back on board please Si…

 

 

 

 

Table News:

“It Ain’t What You Do, It’s The Way That You Do It”:

 

International Week – dontchajustluvit??!

“From despair to where” seemed to be the theme of the week as almost everyone was caught on the hop by the first 10 or so fixtures…

 

Twenty two punters fared well though by scoring 30 points or more, and there was proper scrap to take ownership of the £20 weekly prize.

Andy B, Olly O & Matthew E (welcome!) pushed hard and recently drowsy Jason M finally woke up only to see the Swiss let him down.

Jack B will be cursing Portugal, Denmark and that 94th minute equaliser at Chesterfield as he ended up missing out by a single point.

That left it wide open for a quite remarkable win.

The trait of “forgetting” do some scores paid dividends last season – and it continues into this one it seems…

 

Stuart Fitzsimons 38 (6) not only “missed” 20 games from his scoresheet, the 10 he did predict on saw him haul in 5 correct scores including 4 x five pointers!

 

Unbelievable Geoff…

 

Congrats Gooner, you’ll understand if I “forget” to send the twenty quid over, yeah?!

 

The Super Six

Assists

P Mantalos (90′ + 1) – Greece

 

 

 

 

“Cruel Summer”:

 

The good news?

Everyone scored double-digit tallies…again! Well done us!

 

The bad?

12 people scored fifteen points or less.

Five remained correct score-less.

It was a bad week for those whose name begins or ends with Le(e).

 

Leo Clarke (welcome!) & Norman Lee 10 (0) you’re both on the naughty step this week.

 

Must try harder…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Begone Satan…most popular score was Les Bleus’s 1-2 win in Belgium – 34 of us got that!

 

Twenty three just knew Poland would score against Portugal for a 1-3

19 got 3 goal demolition of Serbia by Spain

Eighteen got the very annoying 94th minute spoiling Chesterfield 2 Notts County 2

15 were well away with the 1-3 away win for the exiting Lee Carsley in Finland

Eleven clocked my expert 0-0 “heads up” on What’s App and put just that for Liechtenstein v Gibraltar

10 landed on the two-two in Switzerland

Ten more nailed Italy 2 Belgium 2

9 banked the five points on offer for the 2-2 betwixt Iceland & Wales

Six turned up Belarus 0 Norn Iron 0. Then sobbed a little bit as he thought of those poor souls who were actually there…

4 somehow stumbled on Italy 4 Israel 1 (how????)

Ryan G sensibly predicted the quite sensible Germany 1 Netherlands 0

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to Debbie Lee for her I-wanna-wave-to-Norman-from-up-here-but-can’t-quite-see-him-down-there inspired, Barrow 0 Morecambe 1!

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Gary R was on “Bet of the Week” position 60th in Week 2 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

Whoop whoop! First winner of the season!

 

“Total punt on 3 aways wins in League 2!”

Swindon @ Cheltenham – in!

Grimsby @ Salford – in!

Newport @ Harrogate – not in!

 

 

So, £6.18 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 60th – bravo senor!

 

Another new boy, Jonathas Moitas is at 45th this week…

 

Jonny, I need your 3 team selection by Friday lunchtime, please!

 

Another winner would be luvverly…

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

 

“Really Saying Something”:

Olly Osmond hoofs it up 3 places to the summit to go 4 points ahead of Laura H who, in turn, is one correct score ahead of Rob C in third.

“Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)”:

Norman Lee crashes twenty five places to anchor the table, 1 point adrift of Lee T, who, in turn, is 1 point behind Bijay L…

 

 

 

 

 

“A Trick Of The Night”:

Highest climber this week, up a whopping 58 places is Jason Morris – honourable mentions go to Stuart F (+42), Jack B (+52), Thomas S (+37), Andy C (+44), Ray B (+31), Sam A (+45), Nick H (+37), and Frankie F (+33)

“It’s Tottenham…”

 

 

 

“Mansize Rooster”:

After last week’s shenanigans it had to be a better week, eh?

Well, for me, only just!

However, I did manage to forget to do one score & Mr 2-0 beat me again…

Woe is me.

I’m sure there were plenty of others with similar stories, but I’m just feeling a bit sorry for myself, it’s been a long week.    : (

 

So, 10 punters scored thirty points or more this week – which is good for them as it transpired – but only one was in with a shout of nabbing the £20 prize cos the 40 point milestone was broken again.

It was girls on top, as debutant Laura H went head to head with Debbie L until she smashed in a Super Sunday haul including a Scottish 9 pointer. Then Spurs happened…

Matthew Stafford 45 (6) has Week 2 forever next to his name now as his Super Sunday tally was boosted by a 3-2 in Manchester & red faced Rooney doing the do…

 

Congrats Matt, don’t be wasting that dosh on some rugby league nonsense, pies or dancing to northern soul…actually, do spend it on the latter!

“Caught By The Fuzz”:

We’ve got 100 real people playing this season (well done us!) but it would seem, with volume, comes complacency!

A fifth couldn’t manage more than 15 points this week as correct scores were even more elusive than usual.

Surprisingly, only three players registered “zero” in the column marked “CS” – eeeek!

However, (is this a trend this season?!) single-digit scores were absent yet again.

Paul Vinson 10 (0) you really are all alone this week…but Luke S kinda kept you company – bless.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Oooof…. – most popular score was Pompey’s 1-1 draw at with Oxford – 21 of us got that!

 

Fifteen were so happy for the googly last kick lolz served up in Sunderland 2-2 Leeds, they will actually wear that ballet dress…

7 believed in the process. A 3-1 Mikel kinda belief…

Seven(!) more celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 3-2 in Brighton

4 celebrated the bore draw between WBA & Millwall (I had 5-1 btw…)

Four more obviously guessed City would beat Fulham 3-2

Julian F, Martin S & Thomas S turned up Fleetwood 0 Bromley 0. Then sobbed a little bit as they thought of those poor souls who were actually there.

Laura H, Frankie F & El Presidente decided to deploy catenaccio to reap the rewards from Swansea v Stoke. And we did…5 whole points of a reward. So there.

Predictz fluked Chelsea 1 Forest 1

Laura H (again!) had her secret prayers answered by the “Saints of Nil” for the stalemate at Goodison

Debbie L thrilled at the thrilling Aberdeen 3 Hearts 2

Tim P will shout out loud about the 4-1 humbling of Ipswich by West Ham

 

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score, goes to David Goggin for his don’t-call-it-a-come-back-but-do-cos-it-was-an-unreal-one inspired, Dundee 2 Kilmarnock 3!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

Ben H was on “Bet of the Week” position 83rd in Week 1 so we asked him to provide a treble selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.

And guess what?!

Uh-uhhhh!

 

“Mulling over the bet of the week – and I’ve gone for three home numbers in the lottery (aka the Championship!) Here goes: Fingers tightly crossed!”

Burnley – oops

Coventry – oh no

Sheff U – obvs…

 

 

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 83rd –  hrrmmmphhh…

 

So, Mark S & newbie Gary R are in joint 60th, and the Perranporth Pep was first out the hat, so…

 

Rolfey, I need your 3 team treble by Friday please! Or Thursday. Or Saturday. Or Sunday…

 

Vamos!

 

 

 

 

 

Table News:

 

 

“Sun Hits The Sky”:

Matthew Stafford zooms to the top slot to go 1 point ahead of Andy F who, in turn, is three points ahead of new girl in town, Laura H in third.

“Going Out”:

Greg Fleming, Lily Templeton & Stephen Peaston all slide to the bottom of the pile…inseparable.

“It’s Tottenham…”

 

 

 

“King”:

We’re back! With a bang!

No, not Arsenal – PAS!

 

Anyway…

I’ll cut to the chase (sort’ve) as it was all about 30 points + this week – and, 6 of the 99 signed up for this season did just that – go team!

Ric P & (gasp!) My Mum hit the sweet spot, Pete B went two better and Chris D went 1 more point beyond that –  impressive starts people…

Justin C slammed in a nine pointer plus 3 x five pointers but was denied the £20 weekly prize by a scouser who still believes…

Congrats to Andy Fowler 44 (7) who just knew his team would beat Palace this week, and just for good measure nonchalantly lobbed in a ten pointer correct score!

The best week to win as you can’t lose now A!

“Food For Thought”:

Did you score 25 points+ this week?

Wow, we’re in awe…

Eight punters couldn’t manage more than 15 points this week  – and four couldn’t muster a correct score.

Shocking.

Damian W & Greg F were spared big blushes courtesy of another family tragedy – yep, Francesca Fernandez 12 (1) actually did her scores this week, and look what happened…

 

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Just…how??! – most popular score was Aberdeen’s 1-2 win at Dundee – 29 of youse got that!

 

Nine got Derby 3 Rotherham 0

9 more had Bournemouth’s 3-1 Monday night win over Southampton

Six grateful for the 3-1 ‘Wall win over PNE

Julian F & Matthew E (welcome!) got the dull-all at Fratton Park

Danny B & Predictz got Ipswich’s “Desmond” with Aston Villa

Danny A got the 0-1 Cottagers win over Forest

Laura H (welcome!) lapped up the Friday night 93rd minute joy of Plymouth 3 Luton 1

Justin C made us all green by happening upon Sheff Wed 3-2 WBA

 

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Andy Fowler for his I-knew-Miss-Jackson-wouldn’t-let-me-down inspired, Chelsea 4 Brighton 2!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, we’ve failed quite spectacularly in the last few seasons on this – actually, we’ve always failed.

But last season, we did alright. Welllllll, alright(ish)…

So!

We’re being brave and we’re gonna stick with it to see how we go!

How?

Whoever is on the “Bet of the Week” position for the following week will be asked to provide a treble selection so we can place the allocated £3 for the bet.

The winnings will stay on that slot and collected by the lucky person residing there at the end of Week 13.

Got that? No?!

OK…

The person on 83rd will make the selections for Week 2, the person on 60th in Week 2 will make the selections for Week 3,the person on 45th in Week 3 will make the selections for Week 4 and the person on 33rd in Week 4 will make the selections for Week 5 and back round again to 83rd…yeah?!

Good.

So, there was a clutch of players there this week, but our fave Canary Ben Hogwood is first up.

Mr H, I need your 3 selections by Friday please! It can be homes, aways or draws. It doesn’t have to be football! It can be horses! Or dogs! Or fighting crickets! But not cricket…that’s a step too far!

Let’s get off to a winning start for a change.

 

No pressure mate..
