Wow

It’s difficult to know what to say after a day like that. I suppose for the neutral it was close to perfection. Certainly it’s a script that would have been rejected as far too, well, Roy of the Rovers. But it happened. I was in the car listening to it all, and needed to take a brief detour in order to not arrive home before the amazing, ridiculous climax. Well done Football, you did well today.

It was a heck of a finish at tPs too, but perhaps a little less dramatic. nbs went into the final week with a healthy lead and just needing to avoid a serious meltdown to become tPs Champion. But in the end he proved his class and his place as a worthy winner with a Punter of the Week victory to seal the title. His margin of victory was a massive 77 points, ending the season in some style. Congratulations nbs, that’s a tenner for this week’s win, and £100 for being tPs League Champion.

Stevemanics held on to his second spot thanks to a 55 point haul and takes £60 as runner up. In the Champions League places, blakey nipped into third with a superb 67 points this week and takes £25 for his troubles. And in fourth Jono came from nowhere to take the final prize-winning spot (£15) with a brilliant score of 73. Well done to all of you!

In the tPs Cup, Adge turned up this week which was nice, but KP kept his head in front and ended up winning the two legged tie 77 points to 55. KP lifts the tPs Prediction Cup, takes £20 and also free entry in to next season’s tPs. Runner up Adge gets a tenner.

Finally, back in Week 3 Cooper scored a whopping 118 points which was the biggest score of the season. A fantastic effort from Cooper and he nets £25.

Congratulations to our winners nbs, Stevemanics, blakey, Jono, KP, Adge, and Cooper. And last but most importantly, huge, massive congratulations to my tPs other half Ian and his other half Angela who welcomed their first child, a daughter – Isla – into the world on Saturday. What a weekend it’s been!
