Greetings amigos,
The weekend saw the fifteenth instalment of Predictio getting underway, with all managers looking forward to what the 2018-19 season has in store. Mr McClay has been something of a controversial figure in recent times, with the media questioning his appetite during periods of inactivity. His Predictio calibre has never been questioned, however, as his double-winning triumph in 2011-12 lives long in the memory. Dave got his new campaign off to a flying start, despite only submitting predictions for 8 of the 10 games - a couple of spot-ons (including a 5 pointer) enabled him to notch 12 points to set the pace. I was 1 point behind as I also called the goalless draw at St Mary's. Elsewhere Mr Stewart-Jones can be very content with his 9 points, whilst Mr Luke scored 8, Mr Raistrick and Mr Moore 7 each, and finally a trio of managers - Mr Crinnion, Mr O'Callaghan and Mr West - scored 5 apiece.
Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.
Take it easy,
Danny
