Cashy twists his way on to the Podium
When a game is rearranged, the key question is always "stick or twist?"

That's the way to do it .....
Curiously
, given that only a couple of weeks ago Donny, with games in hand, were effectively clear at the top
, a majority of you stayed faithful this time, with 15
going for a win, 8
drawmongers perched on the fence and only 4
jumping down on the dark side. The faithful included all of Sunday's Top Ten, and so they are (mostly) still the Top Ten. The highest placed defaulter was Choirboy, who fell from 11th to 16th as a reward
.
Within the Top Ten, 3, 4 or 5 points could make a substantial difference, with 4 of you bringing home the bacon with maxis
. Cashman's twisted maxi saw him catch 3-point AccyTom18 and steal his 3rd place on countback. Outback Ozzy's 5 to my 3 saw Outback's lead at the top extend to 7 points, with me now feeling the heat of Cashy's breath on my neck (not unwelcome given the weather, saves me wearing a scarf
). TomD's 5 to Watchdog's 3 saw them exchange 8th and 9th, and MikA's 5 to StanleyHouse's 3 was enough for Mike to soar from 16th to 10th and push SH out of the elite. One point for drawmongering AndyD saw him as the other big loser
, falling from 12th to 17th.
So it's roll on the furry pointy-nosed Salopian creatures as the games-in-hand situation begins to even out a bit, with now only Hull of those ahead of us having played so many more as to be theoretically catchable. And it's the Posh currently on the best-looking roll, with Pompey the latest to suggest they don't really want to win the thing, and 7 teams averaging a point a game or less at the bottom, suggesting 46 points
might be enough to see a club safe this year?
On Stanley On!!
