LAST MATCH



We managed to get our first point at Hillsborough as we shared the spoils with QPR. We played OK in the first half and we took the lead when Bannan's free kick was headed in at the back post by Iorfa, our first league goal at Hillsborough this season. We had a few other chances but we went in 1 up. QPR made 3 changes at the half and were rewarded when Palmer handled in the box, harsh but the rules and Madsen fired in the spot kick. Both sides had chances to win the game the game but the game ended in a draw, probably a fair result overall.

THE MATCH



Next up and back on the road as we travel down to the Midlands to take on Birmingham. The Brummies had started the season well but have lost 3 of there last 4 games and currently lie in 11th place in the table. It will be interesting to see if they can mount a playoff challenge come the end of the season, but with a board who seem willing to splash the cash (Jay Stansfield for £10m in League One) they could be thereabouts when playoff time arrives. They are managed by Chris Davies who took over in June 2024 and took the Brummies to promotion in his first season, as Birmingham amassed 111 points, the most in the world. There leading scorer so far this season is Stansfield with 2 goals.

LAST MATCH



Against all the odds, we managed to pick up our first league win of the season as we beat Pompey. We started ok and were rewarded when Bazza gave us the lead by scoring from the edge of the D with a free kick. Bannan nearly got a second but his effort was saved well. Pompey struggled to create much and we went in 1 up. We quickly got a second after the break when Brown pounced onto a ball after the Portsmouth player got injured but Brown carried on and finished well. We had a couple more chances to increase the lead but there keeper saved. Horvath had to make several saves near the end but we hung on and take 3 unlikely points

THE MATCH



Next up and back to Hillsborough as we take on QPR. After a poor start, QPR have won there last 3, including a 1-0 win over second placed Stoke last week. If they can maintain that form they might have a chance of making the playoffs, but I think a more realistic finish would be mid table. They are managed Julien Stephan, who had been managing in France until he took the QPR job in June. There leading scorer is Richard Kone who has 3 goals so far this season.

KATE BECKINSALE TRIBUTE PIC

Group A

BaggieOne 17
BaggieVicar 12
Minizin 10
Stairs 7
Twerton 7
A.A.A. 3
Zinman 0
B.B.B. -3

Bit of a nondescript week in Group A with a second lowest weekly score of just 55 points scored, although it was only over 9 games with the pond emerging at Ewood Park!! One interesting stat is prior to Birmingham's 94th minute winner the total score was only 28 points for the entire group but that goal saw a 27 point swing in the points scored on that game alone!!

But there is a definite pattern showing with who is near the top and who is near the bottom!! BaggieOne again leads the way with 17 points, this is his third weekly win out of the 6 weeks so far!! He scored on 7 games including 2 CSs and CR on the Bonus, if he ever sorts out his Gamball predictions then he would be way further ahead!! BaggieVicar is in 2nd spot with 12 points, which is a season high score for him and his first time in the top 2!! He has now not played the Gamball for the last two weeks which has saved him 2 points and he is one of only 3 players with a positive bonus points for the season. In 3rd is Minizin with his joint lowest score of the season with 10 points, he really is becoming Mr Consistency without being spectacular. He was the only player this week to get a CR on the Gamball.

Joint 4th is Stairs and Twerton with 7 points. Stairs only scored on 3 games but did manage a CR on the Bonus whereas Twerton scored on only 2 games but got his first spot-on Bonus. AAA ended with 3 points, his ball play is seriously letting him down this season!! Zinman is not last for a change, although thats only due to a technicality, he didn't trouble the scorers with his Zero, the second week this season he has done that.

BBB is in last place this week due to him not getting on in time to predict on 8 of the games. He in the end played the Gamball on the right game and put his Bonus and Scoreball on the only other game he had to predict on, unfortunately he got both predictions wrong so ended on -3 but did at least get the point for the SB.

93 BaggieOne
71 Stairs
69 Minizin
52 BaggieVicar
49 Twerton
43 B.B.B.
39 A.A.A.
20 Zinman

BaggieOne is really starting to run away with it and has now opened up a 22 point gap to Stairs in 2nd spot. Minizin is right behind Stairs now but then there is another large 17 points gap to BaggieVicar in 4th place. Twerton in 5th, BBB in 6th and AAA in 7th really need to pull their socks up if they are to climb the table, Zinman in last needs to actually put his socks on first!!!!

Cheers

Group B

4eva 12
Lady Jane 11
Themaclad 10
Salop 9
Snooty 9
SCO 7
Amelia 5
Derby 4

Another decent week, partiularly considering we only had 9 games, with just 7 points separating all players. Two games generated negative points, the gamball match and QPR's win over Stoke, while Palace's win at West Ham and Blues last minute victory over Swansea produced 20 and 22 points respectively. It was a better week for the bonus ball which delivered 12 points (the previous best was just 3) while it was the first time we saw a negative total on the gamball with just 1 correct predictor. This week also saw our first negative scoreballs.

Lady Jane was the player with a correct gamball helping her to the toip of this week's table. She only scored on 3 games but they included both of the main balls, once again showing how important they are. Themaclad and 4eva lie a point behind, Themaclad returning to form with the week's best 5 correct results, though missing out on all his balls, while 4eva only scored on 3 games but got 2 spot on including his bonusball which helped offset his negative scoreball.

Salop and Snooty just missed out on double figures - Salop scored on 3 games including his bonus while Snooty had 4 correct results including his bonus but was one of just 2 players not to hit a correct score.

SCO sits in mid table with 7 points, he was helped by a correct bonus among his 3 correct predictions .SCO also scored on the scoreball for the first time this season - unfortunately his score was negative as he played it on the Leicester/Coventry 0-0. Amelia was 2 points back, matching SCO's 3 results but missing with both of her main balls, leaving Derby at the foot of the table with 4 points from 2 correct predictions including his bonus but no correct scores.


59 Themaclad
56 SCO
52 4eva
40 Snooty
37 Lady Jane
33 Derby
30 Salop
17 Amelia

After being caught by SCO last week, Themaclad did enough to open a 3 point gap at the top. Lady Jane's good week sees her jump ahead of Derby in the only positional change.

Some stats that went missing last week!
The gamball has 3 players with 9 points (LJ, SCO and 4eva) while Snooty has yet to get anything from this ball and has minus 5 points from it (he missed week 1). Contrasting fortune for Snooty on the bonus ball where he has 4 out of 5 positive scores (2 maxima) to gather 15 points, 27 more than Derby and Lady Jane though at least they did pick up their first bonusball points this week. As stated above, SCO has managed to accumulate minus 1 point from 6 scoreball predictions - probably the first time this has happened!

The maclad is way out in front in terms of correct scores - 8, double the number of anyone else. He also has more correct results than anyone else, 24 with SCO on 23. If he could get the gamball right he could be out of sight by now!

Zin

Just as a reminder, due to the Blackburn game being called off, Zinman has 2 Bonus balls to play in Week 7, and Twerton, Derby and Lady Jane have 2 Scoreballs to play.

Yeovil Town manager Danny Webb has resigned from his role after just one match in charge.

The former Chesterfield coach moved to Huish Park earlier this month to replace the sacked Mark Cooper.

Webb has cited personal and family reasons for stepping down and becoming Yeovil's shortest-reigning permanent manager in their history.

Under his brief tenure he oversaw a 1-0 loss at Tamworth on Saturday, leaving the club 17th in the National League.

The club have promoted coach Richard Dryden - who was previously in interim charge - to manager for the rest of the season.

Gamball
Oxford - Sheff Utd

Others:
Brentford - Man Utd
Leeds - Bournemouth
Coventry - Birmingham
Wrexham - Derby
Charlton - Blackburn
Preston - Bristol City
Sheff Wed - QPR
Southampton - Middlesbrough
Newcastle - Arsenal

Following last week's abandoned game, Zin has to play 2 bonus balls (so that's minus 6 to start with), Twerton, Derby and Lady Jane have 2 scoreballs to play.
