Results (12th May)

Greetings amigos,

As the final day fixtures kicked off, the race was all but won.  And so it proved.  Mr Moore needed to produce a record breaking weekly performance to leapfrog Mr Stewart-Jones, and, whilst he managed to outscore the man in pole position, he only did so by 2 points (9 and 7 points respectively).  As such and as expected, SJ secured his 4th domestic league title, and his 3rd in the last 4 seasons - we have a manager in our midst who is dominating the sport.  May I be the first to offer my warmest congratulations - a very worthy winner and a fine champion.

Elsewhere there were some eye catching performances.  None more so than from Mr Crinnion, who bagged a pair of 5 pointers within a 14 point haul to jump 3 places in the table on the final day.  Mr Luke also had a productive afternoon, as he scored 11 points to secure the May MotM Award, the sixteenth of his career to date - congratulations amigo!  To complete the picture, Mr O'Callaghan scored 9 points, whilst the rest of us were seemingly already on the beach: Mr West and Mr Raistrick 3 each, and Mr McClay and myself 2.

Finally, a thank you to all managers for your participation in Predictio during the 2018-19 season.  Enjoy your summers!

Take it easy,

Danny

The Soares Cup: Final

Greetings amigos,

The final of The Soares Cup took place in front of a sell out crowd and world record global TV viewing audience (no doubt linked to Mr Crinnion's one man crusade to take our game into new markets by travelling the world with a suitcase full of branded merchandise).  Fans bore witness to an incredibly tight affair between the managers occupying positions 1 and 2 in the domestic title race.  Eleven points in total were scored and it was Phil who triumphed 6-5 over SJ, winning his first Soares Cup in the process in his third final appearance - many congratulations amigo!  Commiserations to SJ, who fell at the last in his efforts to secure the second league and cup double of his career.

Final:  Phil  6 v 5  SJ

Many thanks to all managers for taking part in The Soares Cup 2019!

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (4th & 5th May)

Greetings amigos,

Champion-elect Mr Stewart-Jones left the door ajar in the penultimate week of the season, as he struggled by his lofty standards in amassing just 5 points.  Happily for SJ none of the chasing pack were able to capitalise, as Mr Moore (6) and myself (8) had similarly modest weekly hauls.  The top scorers were by virtue of the Crinnion rule, as Mr West and Mr McClay scored 13 points apiece via 1-0 home wins.  Elsewhere Mr Luke scored 9 points, Mr O'Callaghan 8, Mr Raistrick 5 and finally Mr Crinnion 3.  Whilst there are technically 50 points still to play for in the 2018-19 season, with a lead of 16 points going into the last week, only a stunning combination of results would deny SJ his 4th domestic title.

Any mistakes let me know, final set of fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny
