Sorry Sussex, meant to sort this out after work but ended up going for a quick pint and forgot about it until it was too late. Not quite sure if knowing the West Ham result gives me an advantage or not? If it does just scrap my punt please.
A superb punt of 19 sees Sj claim best of the bunch. Fantastic job!Duke is next with a more than respectable 15. Great work.
Graeme scored a very good 14 to complete the top three. Well done.
MC's lead increased again.

*** NEXT WEEK ***
8 games on Saturday
2 games on Sunday
There are midweek games on Tuesday and Wednesday, so hold off with your punts until after they have finished.
Punts in by 12:30 on Saturday, please.
I might as well have tipped Everton to be top. Six points? Six lousy points? And Shrewsbury lost at home to Bradford to give top place back to Wigan.
Great stuff, SJ!We seem to have lost the plot, Gordon! π³
Lez wrote: "We seem to have lost the plot, Gordon! π³"I don't know about you, Lez, but I think I've lost the plot, characters, location, period, type, pages and cover.
Happy to take 2nd place..again..19 points score is impressive, well done SJ. Complete ignominy of anything football related seems to be rewarding me, 15 points...I'm pleased with that. All I do is just punch a random set of numbers in the predictor thingy...and hope for the best! It seems to be working! :)
The opposite here Duke! I study the footie form every week but all I get is a puny '6 points' say! So yeh I'm dead chuffed to finally pick up a 'top score' at last this week :)
Karma is smiling on us this week! :)

Cheers to Graeme & Mark, I enjoyed meeting up with you once again for a couple of beers on a very cold night in Leicester. Lucky you to be at the right end for a great view of three excellent goals. Shame Spurs only scored one of them :-)

Good luck and a great weekend to everyone.
I don't quite understand how Man City went from a GD of 34 after last week's games had concluded...to now having a GD of 35 as shown in the Sports Predictor table & seemingly some of the other teams also have different GD's after week 14's table scores too. Have we missed a round of games or summin'?Anyhoo...here's mine:
1 Man City +37
2 Man Utd +25
3 Chelsea +15
4 Liverpool +11
5 Arsenal +11
6 Burnley +4
18 West Ham -20
19 Swansea -10
20 C Palace -18 DP
Good luck folks! :)
there was a programme of midweek games, duke, that we don't usually punt on, the predictor updated from those.

Manchester City beat Southampton 2-1.
That's that answered then! Thanks lads! :)
