PL - Table after fixtures of 22/4/18.

Please check (and, errr, let me know, like!) for errors and omissions. Remember, as both a twenty year bond holding Leeds fan and a New England Patriots season ticket holder, I'm barely human and the stresses and strains of both literally and figuratively using my cranium to enter your incredibly well-considered scores isn't always as accurate as it might be. Oh, and it hurts too.

Table is in format:- poster/previous total/weekly score/new total/status.

An away team lost their home game in the FA Cup and we had a 5-5 draw, so I guess there can't be much left to happen this season that hasn't happened already.

Picking the "right" FA Cup finalists was key to scoring in the PL this weekend and Belper69Ram (EOOx), Pissbelly (EOOx) and Silentman (EExx) went one (or two!) better than that by also picking one (or two!) of the exact scorelines to bag twelve points out of the available twenty-four. Sadly, there'll be no cheering of a next-generation Bobby Stokes winner this year. 😎

Whilst Hgatenasty and T_bird7982 successfully roboposted their way to nine points, Dalek (OxxE) was the only "real" predictor to do the same, including the exact scoreline to all-but-arithmetically relegate the Black Cats to League One. Not quite so lucky in 2018 as they were in 1973, eh? 🙂

Silentman's lead has doubled to six points over Nasty, with Orgoner dropping back to twenty-four points off of the top spot.

There were a few Strikers (perhaps Davee59 saw the FA Cup outcome in his tea leaves?), but nothing of any great consequence to report.

There was one (mental) draw, so any Strike One, Strike Two or Strike Three posters would've scored three, two or one for their total lack of effort and Johnny_Default moves to one hundred and twenty-nine points for the season.

The results:-

(FAC S/F) Manchester United v Spurs (2-1)
(FAC S/F) Chelsea v Southampton (2-0)
(C) Bristol City v Hull (5-5)
(C) Sunderland v Burton (1-2)

The next set of fixtures are out as a separate thread.

Good luck! 😎
