QPR have killed me. There is still time for Reading to sink further. I thought I was gonna be horribly out with Blues this year.

When I said I'd do an update end of the month I hadn't realised the international break meant only a couple of rounds of games would be played. Oh well, done it anyway but not a huge amount of movement though Oz did significantly improve his score.
Keeping comments to a minimum
15TH - EPJ - 140 - JOINT SECOND BEST IMPROVED SCORE BUT NO MOVEMENT DUE TO Oz's IMPROVEMENT
13TH - CHOC - 132
13TH - OZ - 132
12TH - TILTS - 130
10TH - MARK - 124
10TH - BRITESIDE - 124
9TH - CYBERMAN - 122
8TH - JAZZY - 120

7th - COOPO - 118 - SECOND WORST PERFORMER OVER LAST COUPLE OF GAMES
6TH - DWSO - 114 - EDGING OUT COOPO AS THE WORST PERFORMER LAST COUPLE OF GAMES
5TH - BORIS - 108 - JOINT 2ND BEST LAST COUPLE OF GAMES
4TH - BLUESHARK - 106
2ND - CHARLIE - 102
2ND - ROYAL - 102
1ST - BUBBA - 98
Into the home straight. Oz improved by 14 points and DWSO was 8 points worse off, these kind of 20 point swings over one or two rounds of games between any two posters are not uncommon even this late in the season so I'd say everyone higher than tilts in the table not completely out of it, though the odds suggest the winner will come from the current top 5.
Penultimate update after round 42 of games (before we play millwall) and I'll be crosing fingers and toes until then. Slightly unusual to have the top 4 only split by 8 points.

DISQUALIFIED
Disqualified for cheating after altering prediction for second year running. Giving the benefit of doubt I'm fairly sure it was tongue-in-cheek since he's left WBA and Preston sharing 10th place and Sunderland in twice in 9th and 11th, not to mention the editing is date stamped at the bottom of the post and that I make copies of all original entries anyway. Either that or he's the most incompetent cheat ever or was drunk when doing so.
As said I'm going for it being tongue-in-cheek due to it's obvious nature, not to mention in knocking 90 odd points off his score and absolutely pissing clear of the leader at the time by more than 50 points it was hardly going to go unnoticed. Unlike last year though I'm not going to continue to score his original prediction (funny point his altered prediction last year did much worse than his original, no chance of that this year though) as tongue-in-cheek or not it's really not in the spirit of things.
With that out of the way I have totted up the scores for the penultimate scoreboard but won't post them until tomorrow.
I will say that I have been knocked off the top and we have a new leader and that the top 5 are seperated by only 6 points, we have never had a finish as close as this with so many potentIal winners. Even the poster in 6th is only a further 6 points away and not out of it, until tomorrow.

Fairly safe to say these lot now out of the running.

7th COOPO -- 136 - not completely out of it but a long shot from here
The top 6 I'd say are all in with a shout of winning this year, just 6 points between the top 5 this late into the season is unprecedented. As I'm the only former outright winner on the below list the chances of another name on the leader board is high.
6th DWSO -- 130 4th CHARLIE -- 124 4th BLUESHARK -- 124 2nd BUBBA -- 122 2nd BORIS -- 122
1ST ROYALBLUE -- 118

It wasn't my intention but given how incredibly tight it is at the top I'm going to squeeze another update in after round 44 of games.

Well I can’t believe I am leading the field at this stage. I will enjoy it whilst it lasts but expect to be pipped at the post. I must say I am delighted to have been wrong in predicting us finishing bottom. |

Last totting up before the big finale and once again the lead has changed and it's now tighter than ever, would say the chances of the tie breaker rules being needed is pretty high.
Drumroll please...

10 point spread from top to 6th means all have a chance but only 4 points split the top 5 and overwhelmingly likely that's where this year's winner is.
Just to note the points swing from top to 3rd last time in 2 games was 6 points, only a 5 point turnaround could see 4th/5th winning this in last 2 games.
6th DWSO - 126 - closed up 2 points to top spot, a bigger swing needed though
you couldn't get a fag paper between these
4th BLUESHARK - 120 - 2 points closer to the top 4th ROYAL ------- 120 - a kick where it hurts but a reverse swing can still clinch it 2nd CHARLIE ---- 118 - was 6 points off top now just 2 points, one more push 2nd BORIS ------- 118 - still sharing 2nd place but 2 points closer to gold
1ST BUBBA ------- 116 - HE'S BIG, HE'S BAD, HE'S SNIFFING THE PANTIES!
You really can't call it especially for the top 5, better go and familiarise myself with those tiebreaker rules. Good luck all, especially me.

The above scores take into account all games up to and including last night and as per rules ignore any points deductions. Should anybody tie after the final scores are in those with more teams in their exact position wil be placed higher, if still can't seperate posters those who are closer on blues final position will be placed higher.

ok results are in and we have even from the last couple of games some decent sized points moves, some big winners and big losers.
14th - TILTS - 160 - and the hits just keep on coming 13th - BRITESIDE - 152 - been in quicksand for a while 12th - EXPATJOHN - 150 - slight improvement but saved more by the collapse of the two above 11th - COOPO - 144 - slip sliding away 10th - MARK - 142 - treading water 9th - DWSO - 140 - worst performance of all last couple of games sliding down the placings 8th - JAZZY - 136 - no traction 7th - CHOC - 136 - edged jazzy out by virtue of an extra team bang on the money climbing 3 spots 6th - BRUMINOZ - 132 - the Swansea of our league getting better the longer the season went on
OK top 5 up next

tilts has gone from joint winner last season to bottom place this season, think Mark had a very similar fall from grace after he won too which just goes to show you can have a stinking season but it doesn't mean you can't pick em just right in another season.
In fact if you discount the first season that mm won when there were only 5 entrants then there'sbeen a new winner every season due to tilts win last season being a joint win with cyberman.

Tilts, what happened bro? You were my inspiration and one I looked up to. So sad to see your demise 😖
