B.B.B. 4
Zinman -1

If it wasn't for that last gasp Ipswich goal this weeks scoring in the PL would have been one of the lowest this season!! That goal caused a 24 point positive swing and also meant one of the scorers missed out on a max Gamball!! It was also a rare week where we saw negative scoring on the Scoreball as 4 players used it on the Man City v Arsenal goalless draw and therefore were deducted a point each!!

Derby leads the way this week with 18 points, a good week with such overall poor scoring. He managed to score points on his Gamball and Bonus and added 4 CS to boost his total. Lady Jane is in 2nd spot for the second week running with 10 points, like Derby she had 2 CSs and a Gamball CR but missed on her bonus. Rounding out the top 3 is Stairs with 8 points, he managed a very rare positive result on the Gamball and now has moved into positive territory on his points gained from that ball!!

Minizin finished on 6 points, he too scored a CR on the Gamball and had one CS but little else. BBB is 5th with 4 points, a CR Gamball was really his only highlight.

Zinman had another nightmare week, its becoming a habit of his these days!! He only scored positive points on one game and missed on both his Gamball and Bonus.

352 Zinman
333 Minizin
331 BBB
330 Derby
298 Stairs
249 Lady Jane

So we might be a couple of players down but we might also just have a title race on our hands!! Since Zinman's closest challenger quit he seems to have gone on strike himself, scoring just 1 point over the past 3 weeks!! The three players chasing him down are now one good week away from catching him as the gap is down to just 19 points. He remains favorite but he needs to pull his finger out if he wants to maintain his lead.

Minizin, BBB and Derby are the chasing pack and are separated by just 3 points now, can they up the pressure on the leader. Stairs should go past the 300 point mark next week and LJ is still only really playing for pride.

Championship

Themaclad 18
BaggieOne 13
Snooty 12
Sanjay 6
SCO 5
AAA 5
Twerton -1

Very similar scoring to the Premiership with some good scores, some average scores and one dreadful score! Like the Premier, the scoreball also produced a negative total and that last gasp Ipswich winner turned the table on its head! With a minute left, 3 players were on for a maximum with 4 looking like losing points - only 1 player, Sanjay, was not affected as that late goal went in. SCO, AAA and Twerton lost 9 points each, Snooty and Themaclad gained 9 and BaggieOne 5 to cap an eventful Easter weekend.

So it's Themaclad on top of this week's table with 18 points from 4 correct results, 2 of which, including the gamball were spot on. Themac was alo the only player to score positvely on all his balls as, yet again, the bonus ball caused problems. BaggieOne and Snooty also reached double figures with B1 getting the week's best of 5 correct predictions. Snooty scored a max on the gamball but was one of 3 players to put the scoreball on the Man City Arsenal bore draw.

Sanjay, SCO and AAA are sperated by just 1 point but scored in very different ways. Sanjay was held back by his balls he scored on 4 games including 1 correct score. SCO got 2 correct scores from his 3 correct predictions but scored the lowest possible total points from his balls while AAA only got 2 predictions correct but was saved by one of them being his bonus.

Twerton matched AAA's record of 2 correct predictions (no correct scores) but also matched SCO's balls to end up with negative points.

[b]329 SCO
323 Twerton
301 Snooty
291 AAA
290 Themaclad
268 BaggieOne
226 Sanjay/b]

Twerton's bad week costs him a share of the top spot as SCO opens up a 6 point gap. No changes below them though Snooty has consolidated his hold on the play-off spot while passing the 300 point mark.

LAST MATCH



We went down to Boro and it could easily have been 4 or 5 in the end. We had an early chance thru Johnson who shot wide. From then on it was mainly one way traffic although it was a own goal by Ihiekwe from a corner that gave Boro the lead just before halftime. Onto the 2nd half and Boro had chance after chance but through poor finishing or saves we kept the game 1-0. Boro did eventually make it 2-0 when Jones got down the right and his shot deflected over Beadle. Boro had a chance to make it three, but they missed a penalty, hitting the post.

THE MATCH



Huge game next for the Owls as we head down to London to take on QPR. QPR are 6 points above the relegation zone after winning there last 2 games so it really is a must win for us to drag them back into the relegation battle. They are managed by Marti Cifuentes who took over on October 2023 after managing in Scandinavian leagues for 5 years. There leading scorers are Lyndon Dykes & Ilias Chair with 5 goals each, with Chair having 6 assists.

THE MUPPETT LEAGUE




KATE BECKINSALE TRIBUTE PIC

Luke Garrard will step down as Boreham Wood manager at the end of the season.

The 38-year-old has been in charge of the club since October 2015.

He led the club to the fifth round of the FA Cup in 2022 when they were knocked out by Everton having beaten Bournemouth and AFC Wimbledon in the previous rounds.

Garrard also took the club to the National League play-off three times - losing to Tranmere Rovers in the 2018 final at Wembley.

But this season the club has struggled and are third-from-bottom, three points adrift of safety with four matches to play.

"This advance announcement is made with a very heavy heart on my part, and because of Luke's service I want his departure to be dignified, respectful and honest," chairman Danny Hunter told the club website.

"That is very important because he should not be remembered for one disastrous season but for his volume of work over so many seasons.

"I remind those amongst us who think a manager should be sacked every time a club has a bad run, that if I adopted your policy Luke would have gone many times and because I was patient and he was supported, we created magic moments, and look over the years what we've achieved together."

2 points for correct result
4 points for correct score
2 points for each correct scorer
Correct joker doubles your score   (correct score on a joker would give you 8 points)
Wrong joker result gives you minus 2
Correct Random Badger gives you 2 points

The random badger is used for any random prediction used once in each matchday sequence. For instance, a scorer at a particular match, the number of red cards in the matches or yellow cards or own goals or owt you want really within reason, I do need to be able to check whether it's correct or not. Please don't put stuff like....."Commentator says...."  
The joker   is played for one match in each sequence and if correct you get double points. So if you've predicted 1-0 and it finishes 2-0, you get 4 pts, but if you've predicted 2-0, that's 8 pts. But if you get it wrong, it's minus 2.
Jokers and badgers are optional. You don't have to play one if you don't want.

The prize for winning the league is one rep point.

Cup games: In the event of a draw, it's half the points if you've predicted a draw when it gets to 90 mins and the full points if it's still a draw after extra time. Half the points will be awarded for correctly predicting the winner of the match if it goes to penalties. Similarly with the badger, if your random prediction is affected by this, it'll be half the points.

Random score generator: I will be using the random score generator again for those who miss predicting, so we shouldn't get some people too far behind that after missing a couple of weeks they lose all interest, because I know it's not easy getting on here every week.
To be fair to everybody, this is going to be like, say if three people in one week miss their predictions, the first one in the table will be given all 0-0, the second one down the line will get 1-0 and the third will get 0-1 and so on, like if there's four missing the 4th will get 1-1, then 5th 2-1, 6th 1-2. and if there are so many missing, might as well pack in.
And if you miss two weeks on the trot, I'll stop until you come back on again. Not doing it for half a season like I did t'other year.  

End of season Play Offs: The one who finishes top of the league will still be champion, but after the season finishes there will be Play Offs between the top 4, with 1st v 4th and 2nd v 3rd. This will take in stuff like the EFL Play Offs, FA Cup Final, final day of Prima Donna League, European Finals etc. It will be one matchday for the semis and one for the Final. It will be the individual scores for each matchday against the allotted opponent, with some kind of tie breaker for a drawn match.

The prize for winning will be enormous. Another rep point.
