Post from the Countryside

It turns out that to get any money out of the Grants you have to travel all the way out to the Essex countryside. Nice round here though!  The fresh full english fry up is on the go as I type...

Mixed bag of results last week but the big Blackpool tip that everyone seemed to be on failed miserably so no big changes to the table.  Phil managed to pick a loser for once so has lost a bit of ground on me at the top.

We're missing one result from Spanish Dave as I have it on my phone following the messy submission process last week so will fill in when I get chance this week.

Good luck!

Government Crackdown

Bizarrely we have had a few problems this week due to the Secret Service shutting down the Jotform domain.  Rumour has it they were offended by how much wasted man hours has been going into picking losing football tips this season.

It claims to be back up now, and a few tips did still come through the form last night - although I've been having problems again this morning.  There is a workaround though so all should be well for next week.

More heroics from Phil last week means the gap at the top has shrunk and he is now miles clear on the 2nd Half leaderboard.  FA Cup action this week with a few people pinning their hopes on Blackpool to give them a boost.

Latest overall table below with full details on the sheet via the usual link in the top left.

Good luck!

6 Nations

Is anyone still interested in the football?  The Ireland/Wales match last week was awesome so hoping for some more of the same this week.  Depressingly the England match in Italy looks like being the closest though!

Back to the football then and Ashley has returned to form with a result last week and reclaims 2nd place overall in the table, with Phil still well clear in the 2nd Half standings.

There was some Grant collusion last week also that saw them both bag a nice away win with rejuvenated Sunderland.  There may be time yet to win back the 1st Half loss in the Reeve/Grant side bet!

Here is the latest overall table - more detail as usual can be found via the link to the sheet on the left.

Clash of the Titans

Some big matches this weekend; Chelsea v Man Utd, Liverpool v Spurs, Wycombe v Tranmere....

An unknown quantity also wanted their tip to be on another huge game in the up and coming Greek League but accidentally entered it under my name.  As it happens, that division is not one of those covered in the rules so a double whammy of errors will leave them on the home favourite instead!

"Each weekend every player may choose one selection from the win/draw/win market of any match from the UK down to Blue Square Premier, or from a major European league (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, or Holland)."

It's time for everyone to improve their research as only Phil and Spanish Dave are even in the black for the second half of the season, so unless we act fast they'll be fighting for the £60 2nd Half prize on their own!

Latest table below:



Good luck!

FA Cup Round 4

Onto the FA Cup where people were looking for some giant killing heroics for tasty priced winners.

It doesn't look like anyone got the result of the round in Crawley though, and Mike is still AWOL so didn't pick the Scouse victory at home to Utd.

The table is updated below and the form men of the year so far are Spanish Dave and Phil who can apparently do no wrong.  Might be time to follow their selections and nick some money off the bookies.

Super Sunday

A couple of cracking matches this weekend focused around the top of the table, and probably not too surprising that the majority have swerved both matches as they're so hard to call.  Pretty sure the bookies will be merrily counting their profits come Sunday evening.

Last week was quite poor overall, except for a couple of people picking up the 2/1 Blackburn win, and Phil jumping from the pack into 2nd place with the Swansea prediction.  That's 5 right in the last 7 for him and a profit of over £10 in that time - not bad!

Even Woolfy made an appearance this week to try and make some waves with an 11/1 shot, picking a team to overturn Barcelona.  Good luck with that...

Back to Normality

Ok we're back up and running with a fully updated sheet on the usual link opposite, and the latest snapshot of the table can be found below.

Remember there is another set of prizes available for the Top 2 in the Second Half, regardless of the overall positions - so those near the bottom can still bag some cash without requiring crazy long shots.

Recommended tips not been doing so well recently, but we have another couple today:


Blackburn v Fulham (Home Win @ 2/1)

Liverpool v Stoke (Away Win @ 17/2)

Good luck!
