“Sweetness & Light”: Did you watch “The Shield”? Y’know, the cop series that was the tasty bite-size burger to the Kobe steak that was “The Wire”? Vic Mackey was ace wasn’t he! The slippery anti-hero you couldn’t help but love and only surpassed by Tony Soprano, Omar Little & maybe even Jesse Pinkman in terms of stealing all the scenes they were in. Yeah!

What about Shane Vendrell though? You had to love him too in that American take on cheeky chappie, jack-the-lad recklessness designed to undo the narrative arc of the show. Then he went really maverick, unhinged, risible, selfish & downright evil (he threw a hand grenade in his best mate’s car ffs!). Ugh! All portrayed by the genius of Walton Goggins.

We haven’t got a Walton. Or a Goggins. But we do have David Goggin 39 (6) whose genius was to win this week’s £20! David had Michael Keane’s 93rd minute strike to thank as he shielded off (see what I did there?) Kate H & Tony M to serve up some rough justice…well done mi Gooner amigo!

Come back here for more tenuous links in the coming weeks folks!

 

 

 

 

“Out Of Control”: From the sublime to the totes ridic very much akin to his team this season or even Christian B’s Premiership career so far.

What a difference a week makes for Mark Seels 8 (0) who goes from darling to dimlo and is now the scourge of “The Syndicate” as he clocks in with the only single digit return in Week 8…

That collar bone still playing you up Seelsy??!

 

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

A fine week of predicting… – most popular score was Leicester 1-0’s 1-0 win over The Scummers – 19 of youse got that!

Seventeen got the 3-1 hammering meted out in Glasgow. The Tim bit of Glasgow…

10 got the ding dong 2-2 between Brighton and Burnley

Ten got Aberdeen 3 Hamilton 0

8 nailed the dull-all on Wearside

Seven came good with Aston Villa 0-4 Chelsea

5 just knew Wolves v Ipswich would be goalless

Four somehow guessed Partick’s 0-0 draw with Kilmarnock

4 somehow guessed Swansea’s 2-2 draw at Stoke

Will O, Arthur H & Francesca F just knew Palace would secure a Desmond at the Boleyn

Jon T got a tasty Charlton 1 Birmingham 1

Dave C should be ashamed he got 8 points thanks to a Theo last kick of the game goal

 

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Alex Rossi for his beside-the-seaside inspired, Bournemouth 0 Man City 4.

 

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

 

44.74% Dundee V Ross County – 5-2 WTF!!

42.11% Wolves V Ipswich – v predictable. Tick

40.79% Cardiff V Derby – Derby. Never rely on Derby…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 61st.

We’re doing well aren’t we!

“Jean Jacket”: It was looking like a right rosy battle for top spot this week between the most improved Charlie H and perennial wooden spooner Frankie F as the faux international week wreaked havoc on predictions. However, despite not predicting the first three games and Eng-er-land robbing him of a five pointer against Germany, Mark Seels 30 (6) wandered up and snatched the £20 this week with no small thanks to Milivoje Novakovic’s missed penalty at Windsor Park. Well done Seelsy, the syndicate must be very proud…

 

 

 

“Nom Nom”: 15 people couldn’t manage a single correct score between them this week (even I got one!) but suffering most was poor old Eddie Osborne 9(0) who will no doubt be vey happy to see the back of international week this season…

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

All about the solo again this week. No, really… – most popular score was Spain’s 1-1 in Italy – 25 of youse got that!

Brett A got the 3-0 hammering meted out in Bristol. The Gashead bit of Bristol.

Neil H got the ding dong 2-2 between Mansfield and Northampton

Sam A nailed the dull-all in Burton

Ian P came good with Romania 0 Spain 0

Debbie L somehow guessed Scotland’s 0-1 win over Czech Rep

Ian P (again!) somehow guessed Bulgaria’s 0-1 win over Seleção

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Francesca Fernandez for her old-country inspired, Rep Ireland 2 Slovakia 2.

 

 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

Yep, this isn’t going well is it…

52.46% Scotland V Denmark – well done us!

50.82% Holland V France – ooh so close

47.54% Rep of Ireland V Switzerland – did you see how many shots Switzerland had??! Jeeez…

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 33rd.

“69 Police”: Can I just say I did alright at Cheltenham…OK, i’ll crack on now.

Six people somehow managed to accumulate over 30 points this week – can I JUST say I did alright at Cheltenham, y’know, the gee-gees… Simon Linds & Jack B when tete e tete a nose in front of a game Danny A – I even had a £93 trixie off £8… but in the final furlong a Scouser stole up on the inside rail and finished at a canter – a bit like Cue Card was bloomin meant to do… and racked up at the line with an impressive total that may not be bettered this season. Yep, our friend from the north in the south Alex Rossi 43 (9) is sitting pretty and has £20 less to worry about from his diminished Cheltenham kitty. Well done lah, but follow me & the “Sport” next March mate!

 

 

 

“Sick City”: So, who follows Mr 2-0 then? Stupido people that’s who!

I mean, how could you be below Mr 2-0 in the table? Think about it. He’s not even real, he has the same score every week and as for his football knowledge… – did I tell you I did ok at Cheltenham?

Sorry, where was I? Ah yes, dimlos doing bad. Hang you heads Anders Hoglund & Dan Hogwood 9 (0) you ought to be ashamed of yourselves (pssst! Get on the equine tip boys, way way better than rubbish unpredictable football…)

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

All about the solo this week – most popular score was Seaweed’s lucky 1-2 win at Franchise FC – 23 of youse got that!

Sam C somehow guessed Blackburn’s 0-1 win over Brentford

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

So, no bet this week but the good news is we would have failed again anyway!

 

So, £3 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 11th.

“The Hunter”: If you have a thing for Forest this PAS season you really can see the wood from the trees it seems! Pete B looked like he was going to strike up the first double weekly win of the season until up stepped (tripped? dived??!) Mr Benteke at Selhurst Park to slot a 97th minute penalty for the thieving scousers (other sweeping regionalisms are available)! That winner handed Charlie Harris 39 (7) the extra point he needed to usurp Mancunian Pete and slip away with this week’s £20! Nice one Chas – more cobs for yer snap box next week then duck?!

 

 

 

“Cheer Up London”: Looking forlornly up at the heady heights of 30 points plus this week was a shared experience for many. Especially me. Again.

However fellow Gooner Will Oppong 8 (0) felt the pain even more so with a pitiful performance that could be labelled “Theo-esque” by some…well, me. And Rob C. Oh, and Dave C too.

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Nope, no idea… – most popular score was Liverpool’s dubious 1-2 at Palace – 28 of youse got that!

24 got the hammering meted out at the Etihad

12 got the very predictable 3-0 between Celtic & Morton in the Scottish Cup

Twelve more fluked Arsenal’s fine draw v Sp*rs

8 got the other “Desmond” in Reading

Richard H & Andy F nailed WBA 1 – 0 Man Utd

Lee P & Nick H  got the PNE – Brighton bore draw

John K came good with Sheff Wed 0 Rotherham 1

Olly O somehow guessed Dundee Utd’s 2-3 win at Ross County

However, this week’s best correct score goes to Charlie Harris for his I-can-do-no-wrong-and-I’ve-always-said-Martinez-is-defensively-inept inspired, Everton 2 West Ham 3. 

 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We ignored them and went for 5 home wins instead! And guess what? Yep…

98.7% Man City V Aston Villa – tick

94.81% Sheff Wed V Rotherham – Warnock, WTF?!

93.51% Chelsea V Stoke – Sparky’s dream scuppers

89.61% Celtic V Morton – yep, ‘course. Tick.

87.01% Wigan V Peterborough – Pfffft!

So, £0 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 61st.

Not doing very well are we…..

“The Noisy Days Are Over”: Remember 1990? That dance? Y’know! The one that Will Smith was really really good at? The one you tried down the Gin Palace in Tooting? In your clobber from Mash and a crystal round yer gregory?

Well this weeks winner is a running man and he sprinted past (see what I did there!) the desperately unlucky new girls Lindsay S & Sophie B to steal their thunder thanks to Dundee’s late equaliser against Inverness!

£20 then to my ol’ mucker Rowan Marriott 33 (4) who will no doubt treat his 8 kids to a Pot Noodle each cos he’s considerate & kind  like that…

Seriously though, Rowan is running a feet blistering 130 miles in August for “charidee (mate)” and you can pledge him up right here – go on do it, the boy is a legend!

 

 

“Them That Do Nothing”: So. You big up a performance that deserves props even to the detriment of oneself. Yeah, *that* bigged up! And what happens? Debbie L reverts to type and form by smashing in another single digit return. Pah!

However, our friend in the (middle) East, Mark J Brown 8(0) has obv had too much sun as his red face managed to save her blushes. Always a gent Marcus, always a gent…

 

 

 

Correct Score of the Week:

Funny old week – most popular score was Chelsea’s 1-2 at Southampton – 19 of us got that! Yes. Even me!

Gary B / Anders H / David G got the 0-0 at Weston Homes Community Stadium

Julian F & Paul C got the Watford – Bournemouth bore draw

Stuart F came good with Hartlepool 0 Northampton 0

Sam A was spot on with his Sheff Wed zero – zero at Hull

However, this week’s best correct score goes to James Challinor for his Jordan who? inspired, Blackburn 3 MK Dons 2. 

 

Bet of the Week:

So, the “system” spat out 3 draws that were the most popular among the 83 of you who entered predictions and guess what?!

We lost! Big time! Again! All three went west…again!

55% QPR V Birmingham – Jimmy came good, which was bad for us

53.75% Motherwell V Partick  – me, neither…

50% West Brom V Crystal Palace – if Scott Dann had that penalty award…
