I can clearly remember the word I uttered as
I read on the CL Match Thread that Smith had scored a late winner for Millwall. For five Prediction League competitors this week, it meant the difference between scoring no points on the Millwall v Charlton prediction and scoring three points. Those five, possibly foresighted, pessimists were
@Dazzler21,
@Covered End,
@johnnybev1987,
@Hornchurch and
@Sonicstud85. Indeed, of the 47 competitors that picked this match as a prediction, two-thirds ignored the history and fancied Charlton to come away with at least a point. Oh dear.
At the top of the Premier League, we have four tied for top place.
@RaplhMilne relinquished the status of outright leader after a bad week, which included 'a Naby Sarr prediction' by failing to give the goals to be scored by the away side.
@sarge1g went one step further by performing a sort of 'Brexit abstention' by choosing three games but not offering any scores. But, let's not forget to mention
@Hornchurch who scored a magnificent 7 points this week in a tough week - one more goal for Fulham at Brum would have given
@Hornchurch a maximum.

Basically, looking at the distribution, Championship all the way down to the top of the National League is a bit of a bloodbath! That's 75 of us within eight points of each other, in a 158-person competition.
