The All Not-So-New 2017/18 Weekly Punt Game

[TheFoe]

Well done Graeme, nice punting! :-) Mine was poo, and I thought I'd done really well, gutted! :-(

This weekend's fixture looks pretty boring imo, the Arsenal game is the one that excites me most. I reckon Bournemouth might just nick it. The Spurs game will be frustrating as I reckon Sam Allardyce will play for a draw.

1) Man City +53
2) Man Utd +32
3) Chelsea +26
4) Liverpool +23
5) Spurs +23
6) Arsenal +11

Good luck everyone, cheers Sussex, COYS!!

As for the week itself, Gordon romped home several lengths clear of the field with a superb score of 20.
David & Sussex couldn't be separated, even by a photograph and ended up joint second with very good scores of 14.
TheFoe made up the places with a very decent 13.

Duke was next with an excellent 15.
Tech's very good 14 completed the top three.
Very, very well done lady and gents.

I've been zonked out for most of this day, after a very painful tooth extraction....which I'm relieved to say, the pain has now finally subsided & the bleeding has just about stopped...so as this is just fun punt...I'll pass on this one, be back to punt on the next one!

[Craig White]

hope you washed the pliers first, duke! :) and afterwards, you never know who's next up for d.i.y. dentistry!

i once removed a troublesome tooth by attaching a short length of string to the tooth and to a cynidrical vacuum cleaner, before standing rigid against the living room wall and dropping it - worked first time! mind you, i think it took most of my brain with it! :)

[theDuke]

lol! ;-)

Yeh pliers well boiled now!

I'm amazed at how folks still do their own dentistry...or as Nick puts it....Doing a Tony!

I imagine the vacuum cleaner didn't come off well either Tech!...whatcha clean the blood off the floor with, I wonder?!

You had a brain?? Wonders never cease! ;-D
