The Big Three

Forget the big four, we've all been there, done that. Now it's all about the big three. With just four points seperating them at the top of the FPL table it almost couldn't be closer. And it really is a battle of the giants. Andy Harvey led early on, fell away a little then bounced back to the top, Wayne Chadbourn has built slowly and led last week and then there's Grunstein, a name that should strike fear into every FPLer out there. Champion last season he is proving that he wasn't a one season wonder by being right up there again. Be afraid.

With 20 matches ahead of us before the next update and yes, DOUBLE BONUS POINTS, it really is going to be a massive week. With an amazing 600 points to play for we could see some major changes in the table.

A couple of mentions.. Great to see 12 year old Dean Wilson is still flying high in 8th Place. Dean is an Arsenal fan and a season ticket holder at MK Dons, work that one out!! His old man is not doing quite so well as he is struggling down in 25th place. After a slow start David (TOOFIF) Lloyd is finally beginning to make a move. As editor of the long running Fulham Fanzine "There's Only One F In Fulham" David is a hero to us Fulham Fans was always going to come good this season. It's also good to see two of my old muckers in the shape of (Sick) Rick Fraser and Dave (Shagger) Shack up there in the top ten.

The Week Ahead

There are far too many games for me to go through it on a game by game basis as I usually do so if your were looking forward to some of the usual expert analysis, well it will be back next week. And just to say I got eight out of the ten results right last week but no correct scores. Forty bonus points the hard way!!

What I will do is highlight in the fixtures below the way I think the games will go. Bold = Winner. Neither Bold = Draw.

Here are this weekends fixtures in full:

Blackburn Rovers		v		Middlesbrough
