Fancy a Wii?: How appropriate that both the cover boys for Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 should score this weekend (then again, when was the last time Ronaldo didn't score?!). I'm sure you've all seen my Week 32 email saying that the winner of week 32 will win a copy of the game, which is now available on Wii + a console to play it on! So make sure you get those scores in!
Week 31: Easter is a time for reflection (Hope you all had a good one!). Perhaps Javier Mascherano has now realised that he should keep his mouth shut in future, whilst Avram Grant may even have twigged that playing Drogba and Anelka up front together is a good idea! Meanwhile, we surely all knew that Keegan's first win would come on Easter Sunday?! Back to our league and after a tough week, I had a feeling a change in leader was on its way, and so it has proved. Well done to Laura for brilliantly holding off the boys since January, and now let's see how new leader, Matthew Jenns, copes with the pressure, especially as his lead over the ever improving Andy Leck is just one point! Of the chasing pack, 6th placed Paul Barnard has the best week, and it's really wide open again.
Jon Griffin wins this week's £50 with a good score of 170 (the 3rd lowest this season), though hard luck to David Romain, who would have won but for the bonus pts. Jon - this will pay for 2 buy-ins at the next poker night!
Bonus Team: Newcastle, 6 mins v Fulham. A couple of months ago I think the majority of people might have chosen the Magpies to score quickly in this fixture. But even most of you Geordie's didn't fancy Kev's boys and only 26 of you chose them, each scoring 28 extra pts. 60 of you went for Middlesbrough, and 11 of you even went for Derby! (including Lord Lucan, Bin Laden and Elvis)
Predictions Cup - Last 32: Below are the latest results. Well done to our 16 winners, who will meet in Week 33 for a quarter place. Biggest win was in the Cox derby as Philip beat Darren 120 to -20. And just when I thought a league and cup double wasn't on the cards, Andy Leck (2nd in the league) has made the last 16 of the Cup. Dan Skipp and Peter Barrett could also conceivably do the double, but would really need to motor in the league. Meanwhile, Cheryl Huston is now flying the lone flag for the women!
ATB, Ciro
