This week saw the final round of the Group stages, and the top 2 from each Group now qualify for the 2 legged quarter finals.
In Group A things went pretty much to league form as St Charles and DD went through as the top 2, with DD holding off a late challenge from Derby who drew level on points but was beaten to the punch courtesy of fewer correct predictions over the 4 weeks.
Group B saw Snooty qualify comfortably courtesy of his consistent performances that he's enjoyed throughout the season and was joined by BaggieOne, despite Salop’s attempt to crash the party late on.
Group C had the clearest cut winner in Zinman, who now has the scent of league & cup success while the second qualifying place was decided by the number of correct predictions over the 4 weeks, with Matt’s good last week helping him get the better of an unlucky Amelia.
Finally Group D success for Stairs at the top of the Group and Bomber close behind as they go into the knock-out stages with just a point separating them in the end after 4 weeks of predictions.
The knock-out ties will take place over 2 legs covering week 23 and week 26 scores to determine the final 4.
St Charles v MattWBA. Top half against bottom half Matt will be looking to cause an upset.
Lord Snooty v Bomber. 1st against 3rd in the championship with a semi final place at stake.
Zinman v DD. The tie of the round (BBC have asked to cover) 1st against 2nd, both in with a shout of the double.
Stairs v BaggieOne. Probably the most open tie, both capable of stonking scores or shocking scores.
