Prediction League Week 26 Results
#1
Group A

Minizin 20
Stairs 20
B.B.B. 12
BaggieOne 12
Zimnan 6
BaggieVicar 5
Twerton 5
A.A.A. -1

Slightly above average week in Group A but the spread of scoring was distinctly not average with the top 4 scoring 81% of this weeks points, and we all know what that can do to the league table!! The points came from three games mainly but that broke no records, what did break a season's record was the Brighton win at Brentford which scored a record low -15 points across the Group, including 5 Bonus balls with negative points!!!

Recently we have seen a resurgence in the middle to bottom half players closing the gap on our season long top two duo of Minizin and Stairs. Well after obviously resting their key players for a few weeks they both appear this week to have changed up a gear to recreate that gap between them and the rest!! Certainly also helps when you nearest chaser has his worst week of the season, but more of that later. Minizin and Stairs both posted 20 points, well clear of the rest and in Minizins case equaling his best score of the season!! Its been 13 weeks since either of them posted this sort of score and it certainly lays down a marker for the rest of the group. Both of them got maximums on the Gamball and while Minzin missed on his Bonus he added two other CSs to ties with Stairs in thee end.

Joint 3rd place goes to BBB and BaggieOne with 12 points. BBB was the third player this week to score a max on the Gamball but he wasn't able to add much else. B1 got CRs on both the Gamball and Bonus, a rare good week for him with his Balls!!

Big drop down to the next 3 - Zinman, BaggieVicar and Twerton. They all got the Gamball wrong, but the Vicar again did not play it so saved himself a point. Zinman and the Vicar both has a CS but Zinman scored on one of his 2 Bonus balls this week, while the Vicar missed on both denying him 6 points!! Twerton's form remains weak, its now 7 weeks since he reached double figures.

In last place is AAA on -1, he has been on fire for a while now so its not unexpected that he is having a week off!! He too had a second Bonus this week due to last weeks postponement but he also failed on both, to end with his lowest score of the season so far, which means he is the last player this season in Group A to score a negative result!!!

283 Minizin
270 Stairs
259 A.A.A.
241 B.B.B.
239 Zinman
239 BaggieOne
226 BaggieVicar
195 Twerton


Ok, so what does all this mean to the table, well for starters Minizin has stretched his lead to 13 points and now Stairs has reclaimed the second place he lost to AAA and now holds that position by 11 points from AAA. Big gap down to BBB in 4th, who is now 2 points ahead of B1 and Zinman, all three of these are chasing the final place in the Playoffs and while still double digits behind SCO there is still a chance 2 of them could make it in!!

Cheers

Group B

Salop....yes really...16
Snooty 11
Lady Jane 10
Themaclad 10
Derby 10
4eva 7
SCO 6
Amelia 1

Group B has been failrly consistent over the last few weeks and so it was this week with a total score of 71 points, just above the average score for the 5th consecutive week. Nearly 80% of this weeks points came from just 3 games - the gamball, Albion's defeat and Arsenal's win. That injury time Arsenal 4th goal meant that 3 players missed out on a bonus maximum!

So not a particularly remarkable week but it did see something special, in fact unique. Yes, Salop sits on top of the table for the first time this season! His 16 points - his second highest weekly score - was indebted to a maximum gamball (just his 2nd of the season) and he also scored on more games, 4, than anyone else. By scoring on the gamball he also moved to a positive total gamball score, meaning that every player in Group B has achieved this modest feat.

Just 1 point separates the next 4 players with Snooty just edging the pack. He only got 3 correct predictions, none of them correct scores, but did score on all his balls including the bonus carried over from last week. Lady Jane, Themaclad and Derby all scored 10 points. LJ got 2 correct scores, 50% of the total for Group B, but was one of just 2 players to miss out on the bonus ball. Themaclad and Derby had a similar scoring profile with Themac's additional bonus ball point cancelling out Derby's score ball. Needless to say, Derby ffailed to nail a correct score!

Our 2 pace setters, 4eva and SCO had a less impressive week. 4eva was the 4th palyer with 3 correct results but no correct scores but in common with the 2 players below him, lost out on the gamball. SCO only scored on 2 games but did get 1 correct score.

Amelia had a poor week with just 2 correct predictions and missing out on both the main balls. She did at least pick up the scoreball point to keep her above zero.


270 4eva
253 SCO
228 Lady Jane
216 Themaclad
198 Snooty
196 Derby
193 Amelia
187 Salop


Amelia's bad week sees her drop 2 places in the overall table, elevating Derby and Snooty 1 place. Salop is now only 6 points away from escaping bottom spot! At the top it's very much as you were but SCO will be coming under real pressure to maintain a play-off spot and prevent Group A from sweeping those places.

Hi SCO did i not get a correct score on the gamball? I know it’s hard to believe but I think I might have.

Yes you did, Zinman scores Group B so he will check your score and then we will make any alterations to the points for the league and the cup.
