A Change Up Front Brings A Change Up Top

Some of you may have realised over time that I’m usually quicker on the drivel when we win a game …. so why is this one late? Mainly because I had it nearly ready to go on Wednesday, took a break , finished it off and when I pressed “post” found the website had timed me out , so all my perfectly crafted words were lost. And it’s taken me a wee while to discover my motivation to try and redo it …. sigh ….

Anyway …. A quite substantial and in some cases highly unusual loss of faith amongst our leaders resulted in a number of changes to the Prediction League table following our oh-so-welcome second win on the trot in some Gay, New or Watery Salopian meadow on Tuesday. Of our top 13 players from Saturday’s table, only Valairian and Outback Ozzy went for a Stanley win , with 6 others on the fence, 4 breaking ranks completely, and Taypot registering a no-show. And as a result Val displaced our long-term leader Monkey Hanger from his place on top of the heap by a single point , Ozzy slipped by Accybeme to take 4th, and faithful MikeA was able to leap into the elite from 14th, evicting Kiwi John from the top table in the process.

Contrariwise , of those starting below Mike, everybody who had a go (except Football19 ) went for the win. I suppose this display of true faith / cock-eyed optimism (delete as required) goes some way to explaining why we all started the evening in the lower half of the table , but at least it paid off this time. Amongst our number were the only two to land a maxi , Cashman’s taking him from 17th to 13th and Tom D’s a less spectacular rise from 26th to 25th. F19’s lack of belief saw him slide from 19th to 22=, while Taypot’s lack of posting made him the other major faller, down from 12th to 17th.

So, roll on the free-falling Imps. If we could just make it 3 on the row , we’ll overtake them and either Blackpool or Brizzle, depending on what they do unto one another. And wouldn’t that be nice …..

On Stanley On!!

I know, I know! And I told myself to copy it before trying to post it, cos it’s happened before. But then I didn’t ...... ☹️
