Predictor Leagues

Hello again (29.08.2010)
Our final 3 matches for August took place over the Bank Holiday Week End. The matches included Chelsea’s 2-0 win against Stoke on Saturday then there was the 2-2 draw between Bolton and Birmingham and Sunderlands last minute 1-0 win against Manchester City on Sunday.
Premiership
Tom Cousins Red Devils became the first Manager of the Month this Season with 3 points at Chelsea on Saturday. His Red Devil’s lead at the top is 3 points over World Cup Winners Stevie James Wonders also with 3 points at his own Chelsea. Ken Tytherleigh’s Tithers United collected the same 3 points and is 3^rd with 9 points.
Other teams with 3 points at the Chelsea match included Keith Swallow’s Donkey Sanctuary and Val Newman’s Brazilian Wonder.
Three points for both Andy Wise’s Old Boys and Robert Walpoles Fulham for 50 Years keeps them in touch with the rest of the League at the bottom. Unfortunately not so for Mags bakers Marvals stuck on the bottom with just 2 points so far.
Championship
Bob Baker is back as he becomes Manager of the Month for August with 2 correct results this week end. He is closely followed by John Tayor’s Seagull Collective and Martin Tytherleigh’s Martin & Hove Albion both collecting 3 points at Chelsea this week end.
No other 3 pointers for anyone else in the Championship leaving Stacey Baker’s Bergkamps Reserves bottom despite her first point of the Season at Chelsea on Saturday. As last week Gareth Olivers Army and Dave Hardings Grand Masters remain in the bottom 3 with 1 point each.
League One
Newcomer Matt Hillyer became Manager of the Month at his first outing the Arsenal supporter and manager of Smudger Nose Best is top of League One with other newcomers Dan lakes Red Devils and Sam Rickets can also Take a Bow as they are all in the promotion positions in the early part of the Season.
At the bottom last years League Two winners Michal Stanislawski continues to have the Blues being bottom of the League followed closely by Marc Baker’s Little Monkey’s who may be looking for a new assistant Manager by the time Christmas comes round?!
Those of you who need to send their September Predictions in need to complete them by next week-end (Despite the International break)

Hello (23.08.10)
4 matches this week end saw Birmingham defeat Blackburn 2-1 and West Brom pick up their first win against Sunderland 1-0. Sunday saw Premiership new boys Newcastle United thrash Aston Villa 6-0 and on Monday night Manchester City overcame Liverpool 3-0
Premiership
Tom Cousins Red Devils sets the pace early on with correct predictions at both Birmingham and West Brom on Saturday plus correct results on Sunday and Monday giving him a 2 point gap back to World Cup Winners Stevie James Wonders with his correct prediction at West Brom. Mags bakers Casualties collected 3 points at Birmingham to go 3^rd.
One other 3 pointer went to Sean Bakes catch me if you can with the 3 points at West Brom on Saturday.
Andy Wise’s Old Boys join Robert Walpole’s Fulham on one point and in the bottom 3 along with Mags Bakers Marvals also failing to make an early impression.
Championship
Bob Baker is back to his Genius ways as the 2006 World Cup Winner collected 3 points at both Birmingham and West Brom whilst a surprising 2^nd is Brighton’s John Taylor as his Collective collected 3 points at West Brom with 3 other correct results to help. Gavin Cload’s joint Managership with Michelle has helped his Cloady Girls to 3 points at West Brom and up to 3^rd in the Championship.
At the bottom Stacey Baker’s Bergkamps Reserves continue to un-impress still sitting pretty on 0 points. Gareth Olivers Army has also failed to get off the mark but is joined in the bottom 3 by Dave Hardings Grand Masters also with 0 points at all yet.
League One
Newcomer Matt Hillyer continues to impress with 3 points at Birmingham as his Smudger Nose Best continue at the top of League One. Other new boys Dan Lakes Red Devils predicted the correct results in 3 matches to go 2^nd
Whilst final newcomers Sam Rickets 3 points at West Brom moves his take a bow into 4^th place just behind the experienced Gary Weller’s Grillers. Stuart Bakers Icemen are still out in the cold holding the rest of the League up at the bottom.
Final matches for August next week end – already!

Hello again (15.08.10)
With the first matches of the Season played this week end no real surprises apart from Blackpool’s 4-0 win at Wigan which none of our Predictors expected. Other matches included the 0-0 draw between Spurs and Manchester City and the 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Arsenal on Sunday.
Premiership
Premiership winner Matt Dadswell’s Super Spurs have started well again this season with the 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Arsenal already under his belt. Top of the tree, after the first week end, is Stuart Adams Vikings with the same prediction plus a point for the Spurs v Man City draw. With him with the same result is Mags Bakers Barmy Army.
Other 3 pointers, all at Liverpool on Sunday, include Ken Tytherleigh’s Tithers United, Newly promoted Ollie Beaumont’s Monopoly and David Mayne’s Icklesham Casualties.
Back at the bottom 3 and Robert Walpole’s Fulham sit’s in the one place they did not want to be this year – in the bottom 3 at the start of the Season. Also at the bottom is Stuart Berkamps Babes (as expected!) and, rather surprisingly, Val Newman’s Brazilian Wonder.
Championship
Stuart Walker’s G7 starts the season well with 3 correct results to go top of the Championship followed closely by my own Titherhampton Wanderers (Expected after being last seasons League One Champions!) Also with me in 3^rd is 2006 World Cup Winners Bob Bakers Genius. In forth place a re-juvinated James Jefferies Bimbo’s hoping for a better Season than last year.
At the bottom Stacey Baker’s Bergkamps Reserves are with 0 points so far (obviously had some tuition from her father) but she is not alone as Gareth Olivers Army’s last minute entry, along with Gavin Cload’s Boys join her in the bottom 3.
League One
Newcomer Matt Hillyer lives up to his teams name as Smudger Nose Best go top of League One with 3 points at Liverpool plus two other correct results. 3 points at the same match for Gary Weller’s Grillers and an unexpected 1-1 draw for Dave Frickers Hornets put them both in the top three.
Other newcomer Dan Lake’s Red Devils are 4^th with 3 points at Liverpool whilst final newcomer Sam Rickets may be a long way down under but stays near the top of League One in 5^th.
Stuart Bakers New team of Icemen started with a cold front of 0 points as expected with daughter in-law Michelle Baker ensuring he is not alone at the bottom. Surprisingly League Two winners from last year are also there in the form of Michal Stanislawski’s Polish Blues – Which he certainly has at the moment.
More matches next week
