The early worm might get the cheese, but the second bird catches the mouse.

Good, looks like I've finally got my eye in, something that should send a familiar chill up the spine of even the most confident predictor.

The season starts now ...

Tally Ho!

Here is the week 7 table after the games last Tues evening (sorry for the delay!)
Mixed bag of scoring but the winners were itasaddler and Manchester Saddler with 4 points - well done you two!

Updated for week 8 from the weekend's games.
Pretty poor scoring really - you either got 3 points or nothing really, with a few 1s thrown in. The winning score was 3 points so well done to all 7 that achieved that!

Much more splendid than it was previously :D

Manchester didn't even get the chance to dribble out some nonsense, as he suffered a significant 3 point smackdown last round.

I'm basically fourth, with ambitious designs on the podium.

Pah! A mere technicality.

As referenced in my superlative video above, it won't be long before I surge through the morass and swoop like a Michael Caine spitfire on the fat German bummers, I mean bombers, and slice my way to Merlin engineered glory!

There may be a few slightly more dangerous ME109s around, but those will be dealt with in good time.

Image

I feel confident and buoyant. :D

Unlike Saddla, whose rude outbursts have been suppressed and silenced ...

8 point lead - Wooooooooo! And there's only 37 weeks to go! :shock:

Good start, but can you escape the inevitable? :D

Updated table after last Tuesday's games (week 10).
Pretty poor scoring in general and a few predictors missed the boat too! The winning score was 3 points, achieved by El_Nombre - well done!

There's another table (yet to come) for Saturday, week 11. :wink:

You still might be level with Manchester though. :wink:
