Pack Sees Leaders Come Into Distant Sight
It's somehow much less of a chore doing this report when we've won
…..
And for some reason, most of us expected to, the Beast notwithstanding
- your optimism frequently ignores reality
, and it isn't it nice when that works out OK
. 15 of us went with an unlikely away win, only 4 expecting us to succumb, with 5 others on the fence. 5 of the 9 naysayers and drawmongers got a single bonus point for the first goal of the game (theirs), everybody else got at least 3.
Which included maxis for Accytom18 and Div3North at the top of the table and StanleyJosh at the bottom, the latter following in Taypot's pointless-for-once footsteps by joining in late and proving this prediction lark is easy
, averaging 3.33 points per game after 3 goes and rising to 30th. The successes at the other end saw AT18 consolidating his third place on the podium and closing in a bit on Lord Stiffupperlip and Kiwi John, both restricted to a single point, and D3N becoming best of the rest - the gaps at the top are still 12
between Lord S and Kiwi, now only
8 more to AT18 and another 5 to D3N, with the rest of the Top Ten all within 3 points of our organiser. Tom D has moved into the Ten in 10th, at the expense of Football19, who was awol last night and drops from 6th to 11th. Lots of other minor shufflings, far too many to detail.
So it's roll on the Dale, who I want to be in League 1 next season, as long as that's not at our expense
. Not quite a relegation six-pointer after last night, but not far off it. Would be very very nice to keep the momentum going though, and hopefully not too much to ask
. So I'm asking …..
On Stanley On!!
