WEEK 32 - Oh Carroll!


Hardly a fool. Caravan sites around the UK must have been jumping for joy last night as a new star was born into Anfield folklore. Of course, it's too early to be sure, but you just get the feeling he will get better and better and the Sheareresque way he took that first goal showed he's got a lot more to his game than just heading and selling clothes pegs to his team-mates. If anyone knows a good footballer it must be King Kenny but another is Uncle Roy Hodgson. He has proved the Kop, and all his doubters wrong and is unbeaten since turning up at WBA. Well done to the Baggies (and their chairman who made a bold decision) who look certain to stay up now. Instead it's looking like a 4 way fight at the bottom..just as it did a couple of months back.

Despite predicting West Ham would score the quickest goal this week (are you insane!?), Harry Walmsley scored all the 2's this week to become our 32nd weekly winner (usually someone wins twice in a season - but no so far in this one). Hard Luck to the other 5 who scored 200+, especially the lovely Ali Norris. We also have a change in lead in the overall table. Lee Honeywood must have thought his score of 102 was pretty good, but almost all of the chasing pack did better, and Stuart Folwell retakes top spot, and breaks the 3000pt barrier after scoring a decent 175. Only 155 pts cover the top 10 with 6 weeks to go. Atb, Ciro
