Many of you have asked me that question but I've already got my hands full. But, as you can see from the screenshot above, if you fancy a go at predicting some scores in that competition, our cup sponsor, Blue Square, have just introduced a Champions League Challenge. see https://www.bluesq.com/secure/challenge/ for more details. There is a £2million prize pot..just a tad more than you get for winning here!
Right, before you get to this week's stats (You all did much better than last week!) there is the matter of the Round 1 results of the Blue Square Minileague Cup. In the end I decided it would be fairest to take the average score of each minileague to decide who went through. If you lost by a pt or two (and many did), blame the person who didn't put their scores in or got minus pts! You have to feel for the Poly league, who lost to Fujitsu by .1! Well done to the Bodgers, who were the highest scoring minileague this week and romped their match,
The 2nd Round draw has been made automatically as you can see. Atb, Ciro
