3 Points For The Stanley (and Nearly Everybody Else)
We were truly confident about this one, for some reason
, and for once we were right
, 22 out of 26 players coming away with at least 3 points following Shay's precise free-kick. But only Ossy Kid (8th to 6th) and Div3North (12th to 9th) were equally precise and therefore took maxis, while MikeA (6th to 4th), NigeB (14th to 13th) and Football19 (22nd to 20th) got one bonus point for our clean sheet.
The unbelievers suffered
, although the only utter pessimist Accybeme (1-2) retained 3rd spot, just dropping 2 points adrift of Kiwi John who in turn remains 3 behind leader AccyMad. Lord Stiffupperlip (1-1) also got a single bonus and remains in 33rd, but further behind 32nd. Pointless MonkeyHanger (2-2) crashed from 4th to 8th, and Outback Ozzy (also 2-2) from 21st to 24th. Red-Osbornello was ejected from the Top Ten to make way for D3N, but this was due to not making an entry at all
(in company with 15 others
).
So it's roll on to Exeter, who did us no favours this week by going down at Hartlepool
, so let's hope that was the start of a dire run for them. And as for Pompey
, I'm so fed up with them for losing at home to Crewe that I'm leaving home in protest
, and won't be back to update the Prediction League table until just before the Grimsby game, by which time we'll also have played at home to Orient and away to Yeovil and Morecambe. 7 points from those 4 games please boys!
On Stanley On!!
