Newport bring an end to a winless run of 7 in the league with this victory. Nobody had this spot-on, though 6 did get the outcome.
This week, was all about getting a 3 pointer to obtain a decent score. Of course that is usually the case, but with only 58 outcomes, the lowest in a 10 game week this season, it was more relevant this week. So it was a brilliant performance from Tropical_Us to get six outcomes to go with having the Man Utd 2-1 and the Mansfield 1-1 spot-on, to give him a seasons best top scoring 12 points. As I have reported in the past, the 1-1 draw has not hit its usual high heights this season. Despite that we had three in Week 27, and RSCOSWORTH predicted them all. We also had three again this week, and he repeated the feat, and with one outcome, he got an excellent 10 points. A total that was also achieved by Pinault_Noir, by having the Bury and Grimsby draws spot-on, and four outcomes.
In the Premier Two more 3 pointers, the wins for Man Utd and Blackburn, moves thrillseeker to within eight of the mrhappy record for a season. They were required as noah4x4 also had two, the wins for Man Utd and Millwall, that enabled him to reduce the deficit by a point. Those good 1-1 picks from RSCOSWORTH cemented his Charity Shield spot, and moved him closer to delivering a title challenge of his own. Another very good week for gsy163 keeps his hopes of making the Charity Shield alive. That top scoring effort from Tropical_Us maintains the good second-half to the season he has had. Not enough to threaten the Charity Shield spots, but helped to insure his Premier status. A status that looked beyond saving for Sector4 two weeks ago, but after another decent week, including having the Man Utd 2-1 and the Grimsby 1-1 spot-on, the great escape is now most definitely on.
In Division One A decent week for durham_exile, helped by having the Grimsby 1-1 spot-on, enabled him to increase his lead by a point. Though gerry_us wont mind that as he enhanced his own automatic promotion hopes, thanks to having the Mansfield 1-1 spot-on. Another solid week from eagledares moves him into third, as he takes advantage of TheHappyGooner struggling for the second week running. The excellent week for Pinault_Noir reignites his hopes of making the play-offs. Two spot-ons for wessex_exile, the Blackburn 3-0 and the Grimsby 1-1, as he shows some of his old form. But with only 54 games left to the season, it is a tall order for him to make the play-offs.
