| MATCH WEEK 37: LOLIVER TAKE TEAM OF THE WEEK |
| Well done to Liam Oliver who takes his second Team of the Week trophy with 92 points. With Auto Jokers kicking in, Liam was one of 11 playing both a Subs and a Captain Joker. A parting gift for the season from Ryan Christie, a red card helping the Bournemouth boy earn LOLiver 40 points with the auto-allocated armband. Christie is now suspended until the second game of next season. Our Overall League leader Matt Woodmansey took 2nd place, despite not double-jokering, just the Captain Joker. Clem Fandango have lost a load of points for leaving Kevin Schade on the bench, and it happens again with Schade scoring 10 but left out. |
| ROUND THE LEAGUES |
Matt's 89 points is a massive 41 more than Jonathan Andrews and it means the gap at the top of the both the Overall League and Nightmare Premier League is now 77 points. That's the biggest gap with seen all season, surpassing the 55 lead Matt held back on Match Week 15. Both our top two will be doubling-up on Captain and Subs Jokers for the final two Match Weeks - unless one of them decides to use a Joker for the upcoming single-game Match Week 38. The only change in the division sees Cameron Patrick back up to 8th at the expense of Keith Fyne, but I think we can safely assume that those two will be in the Nightmare Championship next season, along with last-placed Gary Pearson. The gap between Cameron in the drop zone and Oliver Willingham just outside is 138 points.
Eloise Willingham does herself a lot of good in the fight for the fourth and final Champions' League qualification spot with an 81 point week. Alex Metzger (32 behind) and Richard Hancy, just 1 point further back, are still definitely in the hunt though.
In the Nightmare Championship it's finally happened. After 18 straight weeks on top, and a total of 31, Chris Bounds is toppled. What a time to bring in a TotW trophy for Liam Oliver, top of the Championship for the first time all season. Chris falls 14 points behind and David Metzger is just a further 14 back. Then come three who will still hold high hopes of crashing the promotion party if not threatening top spot in Paul Willingham, Garry Simpson and John-Paul Meredith.
At the bottom, Marc Snell looks doomed - 105 from safety. There are then only 35 points between three teams fighting to be the ones to avoid relegation: David Smith is 35 from safety, Barbara Willingham 2, with Frodo Willingham the manager being chased. While aiming for promotion, John-Paul Meredith might not feel entirely safe in 6th, 87 away from the dreaded drop zone.
Andrew White now looks a pretty safe bet for the Nightmare League One, 97 ahead of Patrick Reilly in what has been a well-fought two-horse race for most of the season. Robert Metzger is sure to join those two on the up to our Championship, leaving a straight fight between Bob Thomas and Alan Walker for the last Champions' League spot. Just 2 points between those two now. |
