Decent week of scoring that pretty much mirrored the league table but with one notable exception. This week St Charles tops the table with 19 points, he was the only player that predicted the Baggies would not get a new Manager bounce and backed that up with points from 8 games in total. Sanjay continues his fine form in 2nd spot on 16 points, in a week where correct scores were hard to come by he managed 2 of them and had it not been for his, and everyone's faith in Big Sam he would have been in first place again!!

Joint 3rd is AAA and Bomber on 11 points. These two are neck and neck in the table and they couldn't be separated in their score this week. They got there in different ways with Bomber getting a CS but missing on the Gamball and AAA saving himself points by not playing the Gamball. Amelia is in 5th spot on 10 points, she scored on 6 games but got no correct scores and missed on the Gamball.

Themaclad is in 6th on 8 points for the second week in a row, he also managed a correct score and a CR Bonus but he needs to do more to get out of the bottom two. Likewise Twerton in 7th place needs to be picking up more than 6 points to close the gap on the safety line, missing on all his balls stunted his total this week. BBB is in 8th place and once again is taking an early Xmas holiday, he only scored on 2 games and he bottled the Gamball which cost him 3 points in the end!!

After a few weeks of consistency Derby drops to 9th with just 2 points, he did manage to score points on 4 games but missed on all his balls to cancel most of that gain out. Bottom this week is Lord Snooty with a dreadful -2, scoring on only 2 games, missing all his balls and putting himself precariously close to the relegation spots again.

As I said at the top, these scored mirrored the table and therefore we have not seen any positional movement in the table. What we have seen is BBB virtually losing all of the large lead he had two weeks ago, he is now only 9 points ahead of Sanjay, who in turn is now only 6 points ahead of SCO. There is then a 21 point gap down to Amelia in 4th and she is 12 points ahead of AAA in 5th with Bomber just a bit further back. At the bottom Themaclad added a couple of points to his lead over Twerton and they are both a little closer to Derby and Lord Snooty but still a couple of good weeks behind.

We now get a bit of a break, I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, see you when Beefy decides we get to return!!!

Cheers

So the weekend before Christmas and we welcomed the 2nd coming.....problem was, will it be of the Messiah or of Tony Pulis? We did see a true Christmas miracle - a VAR decision in Albion's favour - but sadly this wasn't enough to prevent yet another predictable (well, for some of us) defeat.

This week's shining star is DD. A week's high of 7 correct predictions, 2 correct scores and a maximum on the gamball sees him rise above the masses on 25 points, continuing his recent improvement. Silver takes 2nd place thanks to a maximum bonus ball with Somerset close behind in 3rd, both players also scoring on the gamball. Zinman is proving to be this year's Mr Consistent with another double figure score though he failed to convert any of his 6 correct predictions intoa correct score and also lost out on 3 points by not playing the gamball. Likewise, Stairs decision not to gamble cost him points but will be happy with a 3rd consecutive week of double figure points. Lady Jane had one of her better weeks, no correct scores but points on both the gamball and scoreball.

A gap then to this week's strugglers. Minizin only scored on 2 games (one of them his bonus) but was saved from further humiliation by not playing the gamball. Beefy similarly only got 2 correct results but his positive bonus was offset by his gamball. Still, he'll be glad to be above Joker and BaggieOne both of whom netted just 2 points due to their misfiring balls.

Some big points swings this week but Zinman extends his lead at the top of the table into double figures. Minizin retains 2nd place despite his poor week but the chasing pack is closing in with Somerset and Stairs now just 6 points back. Silver climbs 2 places to 5th with DD's great week lifting him 3 places and within striking distance of the promotion places. Beefy is falling down faster than Jack Grealish in a light breeeze but stays just ahead of Joker in their private battle for mid-table mediocrity. BaggieOne and Lady Jane sit at the foot of the table as the only players yet to break 100 points for the season.

The mid-season break is upon us so Merry Christmas (well. as merry as can be given lock-down and appropriate social distancing) to all and here's hoping for a better new year.
From the 3 Wise Men plus Beefy.

Excellent as always - have a great Christmas break and enjoy it as much as you can.

Hopefully everyone survives and we will all be talking about 2020 as a unique experience and one that made us all question our priorities and values.

Happy Christmas to one and all and Beefy! Thanks you introducing me to this weekly 90th minute panic that Bournemouth might score a third goal...
