Results (20th - 25th June)

Greetings amigos,

The return of Predictio saw the leading pack continue the strong form that has got each of them into a position to win the domestic title.  Mr O'Callaghan stands out as the front-runner at this stage, as he returned to action with a huge 21 point haul to propel himself to the top of the pile, opening a 5 point lead over Mr Luke, who scored 14 points, in second place.  Adam also won the June MotM Award in the process, the 22nd of his career to date - congratulations amigo!  Mr Raistrick (18) and Mr Stewart-Jones (16) are the remaining managers in the hunt for the title, and they will be happy with their respective tallies which see them within striking distance of the summit.  To complete the picture, Mr Moore scored 13 points, I scored 12 and Mr Crinnion scored 10; Mr McClay and Mr West elected to stay safe and continue their self-imposed lockdown.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

The Soares Cup: Semi-final 1st leg

Greetings amigos,

The first legs of the semi-final stage produced two very impressive performances that have given the opponents in each case respective mountains to climb if they are to make the final.  In SF1, Theo L defeated SJ 9-3, whilst in SF2 the margin was even more convincing as Nick turned in a statement performance in defeating myself 14-7.

Two managers seemingly each have one foot in the final - we'll find out if this is the case when the second legs take place during the weekend of 4th and 5th April.


SF1:  Theo L  9 v 3  SJ
SF2:  Danny  7 v 14  Nick

Results (7th & 8th March)

Greetings amigos,

Mr O'Callaghan's sprint finish continued to gather pace this week as he scored an eye-catching 12 points to put himself within 2 points of the leader; that man is no longer Mr Stewart-Jones, as he turned in an uncharacteristically low scoring effort with 3 points, which was capitalised upon by our new leader, Mr Luke, who scored 9.  Mr Raistrick amassed a steady 7 points to stay very much in touch with the title race - just 9 points separate the top 4 in the table.  Elsewhere the top scorer this week was Mr Crinnion - it's probably too little, too late in terms of Crindog's title chances, but nevertheless his 14 point haul was a fantastic effort.  To complete the picture, i scored 7 points and Mr Moore scored 6.  Mr McClay and Mr West took the week off.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (8 Feb - 1 Mar)

Greetings amigos,

Mr O'Callaghan's good form of late continued throughout the month of February and into March, as he scored at a consistently solid level to accumulate 22 points whilst many of us struggled to amass meaningful totals.  Ad won the February MotM Award - the 21st of his career to date (congratulations amigo!) - and has taken the early lead in the March race; he also is in 3rd position in the overall standings and has closed the gap between himself and the summit to 7 points.  Elsewhere Mr Moore matched Ad's pace with 22 points, myself 21, Mr Stewart-Jones 19, Mr Raistrick 18, Mr Luke 17 and Mr Crinnion 13.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

The Soares Cup: Matchday 6 & Semi-final draw

Greetings amigos,

The group tables broadly remained the same from matchday 5, as the leaders in Groups A and B both secured the results they required to rubber stamp their progress through to the knockout phase.  In Group A Nick had already won the group, but his 6-6 draw with Adam ensured that he goes into the next phase with an undefeated record.  In Group B, SJ beat Phil 2-0 to win the group - Phil's no show denied him the opportunity to defeat SJ and give himself a chance of progressing.  Finally, in Group C I defeated Dave by the same scoreline - 2-0 - to leapfrog Theo L into top spot; Theo's disappointment at this development will have been limited given that he still progresses in the tournament owing to him being the strongest runner-up of the group stage.

The semi-final draw took place earlier this evening, and it has produced the following encounters:

Theo L v SJ
Danny v Nick

Semi-finals will be staged over two legs, with the first leg taking place during the weekend of 7th & 8th March and the second leg during the weekend of 4th and 5th April.

Take it easy,

Danny

Group A:  Nick  6 v 6  Adam
Group B:  SJ  2 v 0  Phil
Group C:  Dave  0 v 2  Danny

Results (1st & 2nd February)

Greetings amigos,

A weekend of surprising results in some cases produced one of the lowest scoring weeks on record; in fact, three managers - Mr Stewart-Jones (2), myself (2) and Mr Raistrick (1)  equalled their respective lowest ever scoring weeks.  In relation to SJ and Ben's low tallies, this left the door ajar for those around them at the business end of the table.  Mr Luke will be kicking himself that he couldn't take greater advantage, but nevertheless his 4 point haul was sufficient to see him overtake SJ into top spot by virtue of his superior spot-ons record.  Mr O'Callaghan, who is also very much in the title race, scored 6 points to close the gap between himself and the pace setter to 10 points; Mr Crinnion matched Adam's weekly tally, but he knows he needs to score at much higher levels to get involved in the race for top honours over the next 3 months.  Mr Moore, Mr West and Mr McClay took the week off.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny

Results (18th & 19th January)

Greetings amigos,

When the season is done and dusted, this weekend could stand out as the round of fixtures when the title contenders signaled their intent to battle between themselves for the domestic title.  Mr Luke led the way in terms of weekly scoring with a very impressive 13 point haul (including 4 spot-ons) to take him to within 2 points of our current leader, Mr Stewart-Jones, who scored 10 points; whilst SJ will be concerned to see his lead at the top reduced, he can be consoled by the fact that his performance was sufficient to see him win his first monthly silverware of the season, the eighteenth MotM award of his career to date - congratulations amigo!  Mr Raistrick kept in touch with the pace set by the top two as he scored 8 points, whilst Mr O'Callaghan (currently in 4th place) managed 4 points and Mr Moore (currently in 5th) scored 5.  For the likes of Mr Crinnion and myself, it's a case of better luck next time in the title race in all likelihood - we scored 7 and 3 points respectively this time around.

Any mistakes let me know - fixtures to follow.

Take it easy,

Danny
