With Rob Green giving away early Xmas presents, it's looking grim for the Hammers. Time for Mr Gold to make a serious offer or go away. Last week a 1-1 strategy was the way to go, and this time 2-1 home wins would have been a good approach, netting you 123 pts. But that was still a way off an impressive winning score of 221 (bonus assisted) by Gary Hatt, especially with only 8 games on the midweek card. But he got all 8 right..Funny how it's always someone doing badly who does that! The Top 4 in the Overall League remain unchanged, but David Cuschieri moves into 5th and John Chilton is up 27 places to 7th.
Please remember to return the Xmas games (weeks 18,19, 20) before the respective deadlines. Thanks for all the Xmas wishes. I hope you all have a fantastic time and Santa brings you lots of pts! Atb, Ciro
