Valairian Surges as Pragmatists Rule
Quite a few pragmatists made their way up the table as the memory of an unbeaten run faded away with the old year
, with eight of them jumping the fence, the same number as the cock-eyed optimists
who put their faith in the form table and backed us doing the double. Meanwhile, even more (10) havered and hovered
with the draw option.
No maxis though, 4 for the oppo
being too much for any one to contemplate, so the biggest pickings went to the two punters who had a vision of a consolation goal turning up somewhere along the way
- probably not the manner of it though
. So 4 for Football19, enabling a scything
move through the lower reaches of the table (27th to 23rd) and for Valairian, enabling a leap
over Outback Ozzy and Nige B to the dizzy heights of 2nd, just 2 points adrift of Monkey Hanger. MH stayed ahead by virtue of being one of the 3-pointers, along with Accybeme (8th to 6th=), Stevie R (10th= to 9th), StanleyJosh (13th to 11th), Taypot (16th= to 14th), and LongLostSon (unchanged in 30th, but closer to 29th
).
Changes elsewhere were limited, determined by whether the optimists and drawmongers thought we would score 1 (most of you) or some other number.
So, speaking of teams with a less than wonderful form rating
, it's roll on Sarfend. I'm sayin nuffink
apart from On Stanley On!!
