The penultimate set of fixtures of the group stage produced 2 draws for the first time in the history of The Soares Cup. In Group A Theo L and Phil shared 18 points between them, whilst in Group B Dave and Adam played out a 0-0 draw due to their respective no-shows. In Group C I managed to keep alive my hopes of qualifying for the knockout stage of the tournament with a narrow 6-7 win over SJ.
All of this means that with one round of fixtures to go, we have one manager who is guaranteed a place in the semi-finals. That manager is MD, as his 7 points would see him qualify as the best runner-up, even if Lucozade wins his final match to take first place in the Group A. The only managers who are definitely not progressing are Ben, who cannot catch either manager above him in Group A, and Adam, who will not win Group B and his 4 points will not see him qualify as best runner-up.
Matchday 6 will take place during the weekend of 6th February.
Take it easy,
Danny
Group A: Theo L 9 v 9 Phil
Group B: Dave 0 v 0 Adam
Group C: SJ 6 v 7 Danny
