With one round to go the race for the Amazing Football Prediction Game Champion is going to go down to the wire. Despite leading the competition for the previous 13 weeks and having the highest score based on prediction points alone, James G has been overtaken at the top spot by Tim. Another incredible week by Tim’s strikers (scoring him 8 bonus points) has meant that he now leads the league by a single point going in to the final round. An exciting finish is well and truly on the cards.
Andrew Robb is the outsider still in with a slim chance. He trails the top spot by five points, but looks to have at least cemented his position in the money zone with a strong 8 points this week. He leads fourth place Joel by 6 points. James E was the only player to do better than Andrew this week in prediction points, picking up his first Guru award since Round One! Incredible. Alastair has secured his Maize Award for the season as he finished bottom of the weekly league table.
John N finished joint last on the week with five points, picking up a guru award – despite only predicting one correct result. Thanks to the generosity of some players in the league, John N’s illness was deemed a good enough excuse to pick up some points. It wasn’t enough to lift him out of sixth place, however with a solid week from John G holding him at bay.
Joel leads the best of the rest pack, but John G is still in with a shout of this second rate honour as only four points separate the two. John N’s missed predictions may have put him out of the running. He is, however, looking to pick up the season’s Guru Award at the end of season Awards ceremony. James E looks doomed to be this year’s winner of the wooden spoon as he is 9 points adrift of Alastair in seventh place.
So one week to go and only one point in it. Tim has stolen the initiative, can James G pip him to the post? Let’s all pray Ronaldo and Benjani break their legs in the coming week.
