Match of the Week

You can stick a fork in this season because it’s almost done. On the first weekend of the season Fred beat the Muppets 5-1, and a 3-0 win over the same opponents, his closest rivals, means that only a bizarre set of results can deprive him of a second league title.

After a cagey goalless first half a brilliant pass dissected the Muppets defence and Dele Alli was on the end to fire home five minutes after the break. Eden Hazard was on target in that Week One game and struck in this one too, firing across the keeper and finding the corner from 18 yards with a quarter of an hour left. Alfie Mawson’s clean wrapped things up.

Elsewhere in the League

Ryan’s defeat means second place in the table is very much up for grabs. The CFJs and the Artisans now both just one point behind the Muppets. Chris and Co. struck twice through Willian set-pieces in the first half but needed a late Robert Huth own goal to give them breathing space over Cheese Makers. The Artisans had a clean sheet win over Wheel Madrid who are three points further back.

Athletico had their first win in six thanks to three cleans against FCK2 after Harry Kane had scored first for Kevin. Trusted had been eight without a win before having too much for Nil Satis. Adobe, Markovic and De Gea getting in the scoresheet for Beef.

The Aardvarks continued their recent winning run despite being down to nine men against YTFIB after 25 minutes. A couple of cleans got the job done for Ady. There was early action between Mega Bucks and San Dimas too. In-form Josh King had Dave ahead after two minutes and a Phillippe Coutinho free-kick doubled the advantage after 24 minutes. My team hauled themselves back for a point thanks to Charlie Daniels scoring and getting a clean.


Claymore's comfortable win at The Wateringhole Society means that the middle of the table is extraordinarily tight. Four teams who’ve had half-decent campaigns will find themselves in the bottom half come late May. No telling which order the bottom four will end up in either.
