May 4, 2008

The penultimate week has seen Shay making a dive for the line in an effort to oust DJ from third position, with a massive 23 point turn-around to pass DJ by a mere seven points … until next Sunday when all the last games are played. Now DJ has to hope that he doesn’t do the same thing next week and leave in Pat Murphy while he’s slowing up as he comes to the finish line.

This weekend has seen both Don and Dermot G edge away from their better halves…. but they’re not in the clear yet! We all know that women are liable to do anything !!!! (i’d better hide now ;) )

In the Inter-transfer … well, embarrassingly so, I’m now 19 points ahead in that competition too, and unless Ola pulls some Polish magic out of her Leczebnik (charm book) … I’ll survive there next week too … thought I may be a newt at that stage! Also, I’m kinda wondering what to do with all this prize money now (that is if i ever get to see it (there’s a presumption of victory if I ever saw one) … hmmm €80 doesn’t go far on a dozen people.

Monday nights match (Newcastle v Chelsea) sees very few players in anyones teams togging out, so there’s not going to be many changes … chances are i’m not going to change my commentary after Monday night. I will however update the scores on Tuesday or Wednesday.

Of course next week is going to have some strange scoring too because managers are going to be trying out some of their lesser players in the top flight to see how they get on, so don’t expect any spectacular scores next week.

One final thing as well … Dan has promised revenge for some picture that I posted up of him … so get cracking on it … all submissions greatly appreciated … by Dan !
