Round Fifteen Weekly Round Up

Another amazing week in The Amazing Football Prediction Game. It was a week of shocks and upsets – and not only in the Premier League, the Chimay Cup too. All this has meant a low scoring week for everyone, but some have taken this to their advantage. This week saw four players change position in the league – the most movement since Round Eight. No change at the top however, with James G, Tim and Andrew holding the money positions. But below that some under-achievers are starting to make their case. Not least Alastair, who finishes the week as the Guru picking up seven points. Andrew and James E were close behind with six points each. The Maize award goes to John G picking up a paltry three points. However, lady luck has been shining on John G this week...


Yakubu’s hat-trick meant that John G picked up the six point bonus points and has propelled him up the table. This has meant the table is all change. John G has gone from also ran two weeks ago to right back in the game in fifth place only a point behind Joel and only four points off a money place. Incredible. Alastair also picked up a couple of bonus points with Tevez’s brace at the weekend. After seven consecutive weeks at the bottom of the table, Alastair has finally hauled himself up to seventh, leaving James E in his wake. John N has sunk down to sixth, but is still very much in the hunt on 87 points – just one behind John G.


Despite a poor week by Tim, he still managed to correctly predict a score line. This takes him to eleven consecutive weeks correctly predicting at least one score line. In doing so he racked up number 21 of the season. James E still languishes in last place on the correct score prediction table with a meagre eight. James G is comfortably ahead on most correct result predictions – a clear five more than second place Andrew. Only six points then separate Andrew and last placed John G – who has fallen behind a resurgent Alastair.


After next week we enter the busy festive season where forty games in 12 days will all be up for predicting! After this weekend all goal scorer points will also count for double, depending on the outcome of the poll. There is plenty to play for.


The poll has been extended due to a draw. If you haven’t already voted, please enter your opinion.
