Claymore are our Christmas number one after ousting the CFJs from top spot. Clive's team were 2-2 after the Artisans' Christian Benteke equalised on 51 minutes but Wayne Rooney and a Goran Popov clean gave The Swordsmen the win. While that was going on the CFJs were suffering only their second defeat of the season, 2-0 to the CFJs. Demba Ba and Yaya Toure got the goals for Ceri who is now 'best of the rest', seven points off second place.

Boston Rock relinquished third after losing 3-0 to old rivals the Aardvarks. Two early goals from Lukas Podolski and Anthony Pilkington set up the win for Ady and Adam Le Fondre finished it off. Did anybody think both Okus teams would be in the top five after 14 weeks? Mega Bucks are in that fifth place (two points behind the missus) after beating Trusted 3-1. A Ryan Shawcross own goal set Dave on the way in this one.

The Muppets and The Cheese Makers finished 1-1 and the teams stay in that middle tranche. Javi Garcia's goal for Matthew equalised by a first of the season from Fraizer Campbell. The Phoenix warmed up for the Charity Shield final with a 6-1 drubbing of YTFIB. Santi Cazorla's hat-trick doubled his tally for the season. Robin van Persie got the opener to take his tally to ten.

Brian's opponents in that Final this weekend are the Dead Parrots. Dean's team warmed up with a win too. Adel Taarabt hasn't always looked like a £10m player but he got both goals and Fred could only reply with a Hugo Lloris clean. The Cromwell Street rebuilding programme may take longer than expected. The basement battle for 14th place went to San Dimas with a 2-0 win over Nil Satis. Theo Walcott broke the deadlock 10 minutes from time.
