The Soares Cup: Matchday 6

Greetings amigos,

The culmination of the group stage of this year's tournament saw a continuation of normal service in Groups B and C, where the leaders in each case secured another victory to further secure their respective positions.  In Group B Adam defeated Theo W 6-2 and in Group C Phil outscored SJ 10-6 to continue their impressive form as they progress through to the semi-finals at a canter.  The late drama was found in Group A, where Dave's narrow 10-9 win over Nick meant that he secured his place in the semi-finals as the best runner-up, a place which 5 managers were in with a chance of claiming going into the final match of the gameweek; Dave did it in style with a 5 pointer from the 2-2 draw between Leicester and West Ham, and will be hoping that he can carry that momentum into the knockout stages.

The semi-final draw will now be made, with the first legs to take place during the weekend of 5th and 6th March.

Take it easy,

Danny

Group A:  Nick 9 v 10 Dave

Group B:  Theo W 2 v 6 Adam

Group C:  SJ 6 v 10 Phil

Results (February)

Greetings amigos,

The month of February saw three gameweeks take place and a wide range of performances in terms of points tallies.  Leading the way was Mr Moore, who scored a very impressive 27 points including 4 spot-ons to win the MotM award, the 20th of his career to date - congratulations amigo! - and jump from 8th to 4th in the overall standings.  Mr Crinnion also had a very productive month, as he scored 25 points (with 5 spot-ons) to rise to 2nd in the title race.  Mr Stewart-Jones also breathed life into a relatively stuttering campaign to date with 23 points to take him into 5th spot, whilst Mr Raistrick matched SJ's total to comfortably stay top of the pile - Jamine has a 16 point lead at this stage.  Elsewhere Mr Luke and myself scored 18 points apiece, Mr McClay 14, Mr O'Callaghan 13 and Mr West 7.

Any mistakes let me know, fixtures to follow

Take it easy,

Danny
