Has wily old Fergie pulled off another masterstroke? It could be that he has saved Berbatov for the 2nd half of the campaign and now has a fresh, motivated proven goalscorer in his ranks. City failed to score for the first time this season and so the pendulum has definitely swung over to the red side
A very tough week in Predictions with 4 of the top 6 failing to win easy looking fixtures. In fact, there were 7 draws this week (surely a Prem record?) and it was the week when a 1-1 strategy would have paid out 271 pts, which would have won my miles, but no-one was prepared to try. That said, a big well done to weekly winner Marc Tranis who wasn't far off, predicting impressive draws at Liverpool, Chelsea and WBA and Swansea. Bill Heitt and Rod Payne were only 3 pts off him, and were the only others to score 200+
Hope you all had a good Xmas....Remember to get Week 19 and 20 back to me ASAP! Atb, Ciro
