Nowadays, a Chelsea 6-0 home win isn't really big news, so Blackpool's amazing start is the highlight of Week 1. That was one of the reasons I didn't think there would be too many big scores this week, but I was wrong again! 3 of you scored 200+ and Jonny Wilkes' brilliant 255 (9/10 correct + bonus team) makes him a clear early leader. 100+ was a good score but If you didn't have have a good week, it can all change very quickly. For those that were unaware, you can (and will!) score minus pts in this game..a 94th minute goal really can make all the difference, and just to prove it's not easy, we already have some large minus scores this week, with -70 from Brian Oliver propping up the table...and Brian is the Sports Editor at the Observer! (sorry Brian!)

NB - Before anyone questions their score, pls remember that this season a "Spot on" Home Win is worth 40 pts (last season it was 30).
Hope you had a good first week, Ciro
