Starboy 2.0
“Torch”:
Was you expecting the points-fest on International Week as per yesteryears?
Unfortunately, it was a reality check for all as the dream of 40, 50, and 60 points remained just that, a dream.
You could tell it was a “meh” week as Mr 2-0 fared well – so well done to you if you “tactically” opted out of submitting scores this week….<growls><snarls><vomits>
Only eight clocked up 30 points or more and only none sprung forward past the forty point mark!
Paul F put up a spirited scrap for the weekly honour (undone by a 96 min equaliser at Carlisle!) but was ultimately brushed aside by a resurgent Dan Wayman 38 (6) who has Italy’s 94th minute goal “at” Ecuador to thank as it snapped him up the £20.
Well done Dan, finally got that “double” monkey off your back then!
Well, well, well. I think this is a first…
I did Frankie’s scores and managed not to get her any correct scores – hehehe! Wait? What…?
Still, 15 players couldn’t notch any more than fifteen points.
7 matched “Frankie’s” effort…
But who was the only player with a single-digit total & worst of the week?
Eddie Osborne 9 (0) – that’s who!
Correct Score of the Week:
Wevs…most popular score was Germany’s 2-1 win over the Netherlands – 21 of youse got that!
Seventeen just knew Wrexham wouldn’t keep a clean sheet for a 1-3 at Grimsby
12 snaffled up the 5 points served up by England & Belgium (I hope the Belgians all dye their hair ginger for the Euros btw – y’know, to really complete that “look”)
Four got the 4 goal demolition of Scotland in Holland
Emma T celebrated like Walsall at Highbury in ’83 after that 1-2 Notts Co v Salford
Damian W put us all to shame by predicting Mansfield 1 Colchester 1
John K said “Look at me! Yes! Me!” for his Northampton Town 1-0 Derby County
Danny B celebrated the last gasp two-all draw between Carlisle & Stevenage
Debbie L somehow stumbled on Wales 4 Finland 1 (how????)
However, this week’s best correct score, and new Correct Score of the Season, goes to Matthew Stafford for his who-cares-about-rugby-league-when-you’ve-footie-like-this inspired, Spain 3 Brazil 3!
Bet of the Week:
Justin Corliss was on “Bet of the Week” position 45th in Week 7 so I asked him to provide a 3 team selection for the £3 “trixie” bet.
And guess what?!
So, £4.81 goes on “Bet of the Week” slot 45th – Fosters time!
Rowan Marriott is at 33rd this week….
Jefe, I need your 3 team selection by Friday morning, please!
Table News:
“Memorabilia”:
Roshan Thepa moves up 1 to the top slot, 1 point ahead of Andy K who, in turn, is eight correct scores ahead of Louis W in third…
Two crashed the Top Ten!
“Insecure Me”:
Neil Critchlow stays rooted to the bottom, now fourteen points behind Thomas S who, in turn, is eight points adrift of Predictz…
“So”:
Highest climber this week, up a whopping 31 places is Paul Flaherty – honourable mentions go to Dickie H (+19), John K (+20), Simon Lindq (+18), and Stuart F (+21).
“What!”:
Falling furthest this week, down a whopping 31 places is Eddie Osborne – dishonourable mentions go to Deepak B (-24), Sam A (-22), Paul C (-24), and Peter M (-20).
