Premiership Plus Predictions Game - League Season Update

A very happy Wednesday to all of you PPPers. Before we get into the hurly burly of the rescheduled European knock-out rounds starting later this afternoon, I thought a quick update of our standings was due. 

With Fulham's 2-1 victory over Brentford at a strangely silent Wembley Stadium, we finally reached the long-awaited end of the domestic league season. We now know that Fulham will join my beloved Leeds and WBA in the Premier League to start the weekend of September 12. More importantly for our game, our current league leader MOT the Hoople retained four crucial points with the Cottagers' victory and still leads by two points at the top. The Blue Devil (that's me, of course) is in hot pursuit, having gained a whooping 8 points for correctly predicting both the winner (Arsenal!) and loser (Chelsea) of last Saturday's FA Cup Final and Swansong, only three points off the pace, having correctly predicted a Chelsea loss on Saturday. 

So, what's left, then. Well, play resumes in the Europa League this afternoon, with four points on the line for those who correctly predict the winner. The Champions League starts up again on Friday, with six points at stake. And the PFA Awards may also bring an additional two points here or there. So, it's all very much up for grabs and I'll keep updating as the picture gets clearer. 

Here are the current standings: 

1. MOT the Hoople - 42 points

2. Blue Devil - 40 pts

3. Swansong - 39 pts

4. West Ham Rising - 36 pts

5. Someone Said - 35 pts

6. What's Up Wheaton Simon - 25 pts 

7. Man Utd Rules - 24 pts

8. The Bee's Knees - 22 pts

-  Pink Kits - 22 pts

10. United We Stand - 19 pts

11. Yellows - 17 pts

12. Gooner71 - 16 pts

-   Red Devil 1FCK - 16 pts

13. Red Dragon - 15 pts

14. The Saint - 14 pts
