...and to Tiger's fan, Dan Thut, who predicted a 2-1 win. After Arsenal went ahead, the odds of that were 700/1! Despite those extra 50 pts, he could still only manage 2nd this week, denied by Sarah Cowell and her inspired Bonus Team choice (well done!) By the way, if Bolton get relegated as a result of the worst penalty award ever, can they take the flying Ronaldo to arbitration and sue for loss of earnings? I think not!
Before the usual stats, here are the Quarter Final results of the Blue Square Minileague Cup. The members of 4 minileagues now remain in contention to win the 5 pairs of tickets to a Premiership Match. Well done to the Music Industry bods, Links Plus, Down The Line and those high scoring Bodgers (they are certainly not bodging this up!). Hard luck to the losers, especially the bankers, who are not having a good time lately! Atb, Ciro
