Results (12th & 13th May)

Greetings amigos,

The astonishing finale to the Premiership season was not replicated in the Predictio competition and that will not bother Mr McClay one bit, as he secured the 2011-12 Predictio title with a very solid 11 point haul.  Not content with winning his first domestic title at the second attempt, Dave also comfortably bettered Mr Luke (7) in the final of The Soares Cup to take a truly remarkable league and cup double - congratulations amigo!  Lucozade has to settle for the final monthly silverware of the season as a consolation, his 3rd of the year and 11th of his career to date.  Elsewhere Mr Stewart-Jones couldn't muster the miracle week that was required as he scored 10 points and he was joined on that total by Mr Raistrick and Mr O'Callaghan, who is showing good form as he approaches the defence of his 2008 Euro Championships title.  Finally, Mr Crinnion finished a good seasons work with 9 points, Mr Moore and myself scored 7 points and Mr West scored 5.

Thanks to all managers for taking part this season - I'm off to La Manga to recuperate ahead of the Predictio Euro Championships 2012, which kick off on 8th June.

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (5th & 6th May)

Greetings amigos,

The champagne is definitely still on ice for Mr McClay, as Dave scored just 2 points to give hope to the chasing pack that they may be able to snatch the 2011-12 title from under his nose.  A sigh of relief will be heard in Saltford, as the nearest challenger, Mr Crinnion, failed to take advantage as he only scored a point more than the league leader.  However, Mr Luke (12) and Mr Stewart-Jones (8) were both more successful, and as such it's SJ who is now in 2nd place and 7 points behind the leader going into the final round of fixtures of the season.  After his impressive performance Lucozade is in pole position to take the final monthly silverware of the season.  Elsewhere Mr O'Callaghan found some form ahead of the upcoming Euro Championships (a title he holds) as he notched 7 points, whilst Mr West and Mr Raistrick both amassed 5 points each.  Finally Mr Moore and myself both clearly had our minds on the beach as we both only managed 2 points apiece.

So, we head into the final weekend of the season with Dave the clear favourite but the title certainly not settled.  Next weekend will also see the final of The Soares Cup, which will be contested between Dave and Theo L.  It is conceivable that either manager could be celebrating a historic double come 5pm on Sunday.

Any mistakes let me know, fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (28th & 29th April)

Greetings amigos,

Mr West demonstrated that he could be a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming Euro Championships, as he top scored with an impressive 11 point haul including 2 spot-ons.  Elsewhere it was a week that went very well for Mr McClay as managers struggled to amass points leaving the table much as it was.  Mr Stewart-Jones and Mr Moore both scored a respectable 7 points, whilst Mr Raistrick was a point behind them with 6.  Mr Luke and Mr O'Callaghan both notched 5 points, I scored 4 points and the top two, Mr McClay and Mr Crinnion, scored 3 points apiece.  All of which means that Dave adds the April Manager of the Month Award to his trophy cabinet - congratulations amigo - and looks very likely to be opening it again in a couple of weeks for the 2011-12 title trophy as he maintains his 11 point lead at the top.

Any mistakes let me know, fixtures to follow.

Danny
