It really is getting tight at the top. This past week
was just about the best bonus point week of the season so
far. I managed 45 bonus points and all of them came on Saturday!
Had Spurs and Liverpool delivered wins and had we not had
to suffer such a painfull 90 minutes at the Boleyn Ground
on Sunday, then it could have been even better.
Good to see young Dean Wilson climbing the table again after
a couple of quiet weeks and watch out for David (TOOFIF) Lloyd
who has sneaked into the top ten for the first time.
Double Bonus Points
It's the FA Cup this weekend but we are back in business
a week today and this round will be January's double bonus
points week. You all have just about a week from now to adjust
your tables and add your predictions as the window will close
on Monday night.
The Week Ahead
On Saturday Leon and I are making our first ever trip to Rockingham
Road, the home of Kettering Town. If we play like we did at
West Ham on Sunday the back pages will be full of stories
of Giant Killing as we were awful. Hopefully we'll perform
a little better and squeeze into the round five draw. On Tuesday
night the team travel to Sunderland, it's a school night though
so we will be watching it on teletext..
As for the rest of the midweek fixtures, I would expect Man
U, Chelsea and Man City to win on current form but feel the
rest of the games could go either way.
