Apart from SJ, who gained 3 points
for his heresy, it just came down to whether you thought the Gills would score a single consolation goal while going down to inevitable defeat. A few of us did, and won a point
for our troubles. Nowt for everybody else.
Impact on the table then, was limited, mostly restricted to someone who got a point
climbing above someone who didn't
. This was the case for Mab, up two from 5th to 3rd, Me (12-11), AccyMad (17-16=), AngeB (20-19) and Tommy McQueen (22-21). SJ's 3 points only got him a similar improvement (14-13). At the very top, Outback Ozzy got a point and his closest challengers didn't, thereby increasing his lead to 8 points.
A welcome back to Northern Soul
, whose second entry this season brought his second point.
So, roll on Hull for a double-header. Can't help thinking 4 points from these 2 games would be a very good return, needing of course at least a draw from the first one tomorrow
. Time for a bouncing back then lads - but how do we all feel about our chances? Only time will tell ....
On Stanley On!!
