Lakenheath Old Boys

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

Premiership Plus Predictions Game - Week 38 Update

A very happy Monday afternoon to all of you in PPP world. I hope that the beginning of the workweek is treating you well. As you all know, the domestic top flight wrapped up matters yesterday, with City predictably grabbing the title again from the clutches of a Liverpool team who ended up with the highest points tally for any unsuccessful title rival. That also meant that I was handed the wooden spoon for this year's competition, as the rest of you Notradamuses picked City to win the title, while I had tipped the Merseyside outfit.

Nothing else changed from last week to this one - the top five stayed the same, as did the bottom three and the Championship playoffs haven't been resolved yet, although Aston Villa and my beloved Leeds United are in pole position to head to Wembley for the Playoff Final now.

The big change is that both Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Sadio Mane closed the gap with Mo Salah to notch 22 goals in the Premier League this season, which means that they'll all share a stud of the Golden Boot. It also means that both The Saint and What's Up Wheaton Simon picked up six points and thus vaulted up to level first and third respectively.

It's still very tight at the top and will likely come down to the FA Cup, Champions League Final, Europa Cup Final and the Championship Playoffs. Here are the current standings:

1. Man Utd Rules - 49 points
-   The Saint - 49 pts
3. United We Stand - 48 pts
4. Up Wheaton Simon - 47 pts
5. MOT the Hoople - 46 pts
6. West Ham Rising - 45 pts
7. The Bee's Knees - 43 pts
-   Swansong - 43 pts
9. Gooner71 - 41 pts
-   Yellows - 41 pts
11. Red Devil 1FCK - 40 pts
12. Red Dragon - 38 pts
13. Someone Said - 37 pts
14. Blue Devil - 32 pts
