MATCH WEEK 7: SUBS HELP KNACKERS TOP THE WEEK
Robert Metzger - top scorer on the opening Match Week of the season - takes his second Manager of the Week trophy with 97 points. It was tight, with David Metzger just a point behind despite having five less boys in play. Robert played a Subs Joker worth 18 points. Sadly Chavarria and Jebbison missed out and Lindelof scored -3, but Donnarumma (9) and Tyrique George (12) did the business from the bench. Adam Wharton as captain was the right call for 36. David also benefitted from Palace being destroyed by Brighton with captain Walter Benitez scoring 38, Wharton 18.
BLACK CATS AND SEAGULLS HIT TOP SPOT
Patrick Reilly becomes our fifth different table-topper of the Overall League already this season. Patrick's squad of Sunderland and Brighton boys has been on cracking form - mostly because he's loaded up on Black Cats in recent weeks. This week Patrick was hurt by several Sunderland boys missing, ending up with six Seagulls in his 11 for a combined total of -7 points. Patrick was inspired by Omar Alderete having an absolute stinker and picking up 24 points, while Kevin Danso was named captain and got sent off, bringing in 50. No-one yet has been any more than 9 points ahead at any point of the season, Patrick is 6 clear of Simon Gardner, though there is then a 25 gap opened up to 3rd.
ROUND THE LEAGUES
Lots of shaking and shifting in the Nightmare Premier League with just three teams staying where they were last week. We have a new leader again, Richard Hancy deposed after a single week and Colette Anthony taking over. The top score in the division is 96 for David Metzger, moving David up from 9th to 8th as he looks to escape the relegation spots. Oliver Willingham was the worst scorer by a distance with just 23 points - while 19 remained on his bench - and slips to 9th, only 2 ahead of bottom placed Chris Bounds.

Patrick Reilly increases his lead at the top of the Nightmare Championship to a healthy 73 points. Robert Metzger is up to 2nd, Cameron Patrick slips to 3rd. 4th and 5th swap places too, so do 8th and 9th. Garry Simpson continues to edge closer to climbing off the foot of the table, 10 points now the gap. Garry went with a Subs Joker this week but ultimately it earned him just a point.

Top two stay the same in Nightmare League One. Keeley Fyne joins them in the promotion zone, ousting Sharon Fyne. The bottom two change places with Rosalie Pearson up, mostly thanks to Alan Walker's ridiculous -18 points.

No changes at all in Nightmare League Two. Simon Gardner goes 52 points clear. Kate Young, who had the worst start to the season of all but has been climbing ever since, is now working on the gap between herself in 4th and Andy Teale in 3rd.
