Results (13th & 14th February)

Greetings amigos,

Following the festive period, the Predictio title race appeared to be turning into a 2 horse affair.  Mr West turned in a performance to quash such assumptions, as he scored 10 points to gain vital ground on the managers above him, with Mr Stewart-Jones and Mr Luke scoring 3 and 6 points respectively.  Mr Moore turned in an eye-catching performance with 9 points, whilst Mr Raistrick can be content with his 7 point haul given the lower scoring achieved elsewhere.  To complete the picture, Mr Crinnion and myself scored 3 points, and Mr O'Callaghan and Mr McClay both scored a point apiece.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny

The Soares Cup: Matchday 6 Results & Tables

Greetings amigos,

The final round of group fixtures in the 2015-16 Soares Cup produced the drama that we've come to expect from the competition.  In Group A, Theo L edged out Ben 6-5 to win the group with an impressive 8 points and an unbeaten group stage.  The result meant that Ben completed a torrid defence of his title without a win to his name.  In Group B Dave powered past Theo W 9-6 and stole his place in the semi-finals in the process.  Finally in Group C, the closest group in Soares Cup history ended with Nick defeating SJ 9-6, but SJ progresses to the knockout phase on points difference as all 3 managers ended the group stage level on 6 points apiece.  The final semi-final place goes to the best runner-up which this year is Phil - his 7 points would often be sufficient to win a group and so he deserves his place in the latter stages.  Theo W, Nick and myself can count ourselves a little unfortunate that our respective 6 point hauls see us exit the competition.

The semi-final line up looks like this:

Phil v Dave

SJ v Theo L

The first leg of the semi-final will take place during the weekend of 5th March, and the second leg during the weekend of 2nd April.

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (6th & 7th February)

Greetings amigos,

A couple of managers in the bottom half of the table reminded us all of their respective pedigree this week, as Mr McClay and Mr Crinnion both top scored with 9 points apiece.  Elsewhere it was all much of a muchness, as just 2 points separated the other 7 managers.  At the top end with 6 points were Mr Stewart-Jones, Mr Luke and Mr West, whilst Mr O'Callaghan, Mr Raistrick and myself scored 5 and finally Mr Moore scored 4.  All of which means that there was very little change to the overall table and the MotM race is wide open at this early stage of the month.

Any mistakes let me know, fixtures sent earlier this afternoon.

Take it easy,

Danny
