WEEK 13 REVIEW

Despite disappointment in the biggest game of the weekend, @JamesL top-scores this week with 23 points as one of the two players (alongside league leader @Pwizardo) to get the 5 points from the bonus game with a correct prediction of 12 goals in Sunday's four Premier League matches. Sheffield is red as United took the spoils in the steel city derby to keep the vast majority of us happy, with 5s and 4s across the board, but no one trebled-up. Birmingham Women's win at LCL caught us all off-guard, leaving the evening fixtures. @JamesL and @Gabriel scored the big 15 predicting the 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge with only two other players (@one and @RefereeX - who set a new weekly PB) picking-up points there. Meanwhile, at the San Siro the 1-1 draw gave Exxy a trebled-up 9, with only Wizzy and @Josh the referee getting points from the game as everyone else went for a hom win. In whatever Portuguese for ¡El Clasico! is, Benfica trounced Porto keeping the majority happy but no one scored big on it.

LEAGUE TABLE

Wizzy stays top and extends his lead from 19 to a healthy 30 points as Onesie jumps into the top two from fourth. James moves back into the top five, and Gabz also passes Navy who - by all possible metrics - had a stinker. Exxy is off the bottom, replaced by Josh who slips behind Holby.

Looking at the season-so-far statistics, weekly top score (excluding bonus points and the double week) is @es1 with 31 (Week 09), One and Foxy have the joint-most correct results (34), with Foxy and James having the most treble scores (9), and Wizzy and James are the two players who have scored the maximum 15 on two occasions. If you take away any bonus points won/lost, Wizzy would still be top (148) ahead of Foxy (132) and One (124). Holby would be bottom on 79 from the remaining 11 players (two dropouts).

3-0 at half-time. Might award myself 500 points if this ends in a draw. MY GAME MY RULES. 😂😂
Non of this dictatorship stuff 😂😂

-5 points (was tempted with -500) for the bonus game with the biggest goal difference. 🤣

We are a reasonable bunch. We can democratically vote on it 😄. Like for a yes, sad face for a no.

Edit: I'm not really serious but feel free to vote anyway 🤣

Might use this for a "predict a tonking" bonus game. Just picked the fixtures for 24/11 (four domestic + 1 overseas) so may save it for the weekend at the end of the month - FA Cup 2nd Round, pretty much a full calendar elsewhere etc, plenty of chances for someone to get a good, old-fashioned battering.
