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!

Euro 2020/1 Predictions Game - Group Stage Update #3

Whew! I hope that all of you enjoyed that thrilling Group F action yesterday as much as I did! With those nailbiters, we ended the group stage of Euro 2020/1 and it's time to take stock of our game standings again before we jump into the Round of 16 matches at the weekend. When everything shook out last evening, all of the major powers - even those in the Group of Death - managed to get through to the next round, which is reflected in our point scores. Some of the predicted dark horses, however, fell at the final hurdle - my prediction of North Macedonia topping their group has put my status as "Nostrabobus" in serious jeopardy! 

We're still looking for the First Red Card in the pool and the First Hat-trick in the tournament. Cristiano Ronaldo is now streets ahead in the Golden Boot competition, having notched two more penalties against France last night - he's on five goals now. 

So as we look forward to a thrilling Round of 16 - Belgium v. Portugal! England v. Germany! Cor! - here are the standings: 

1. Teddy Goalesevelt - 37 points 

- The Saint - 31 pts

- Yellows - 31 pts

4. Swansong - 30 pts

5. What's Up Wheaton Simon - 29 pts

6. Red Dragon - 28 pts

7. Man Utd Rules - 27 pts

- Red Devil 1FCK - 27 pts

9. Gooner71 - 26 pts

- United We Stand - 26 pts

11. Anfield Warriors - 25 pts

12. The Bee's Knees - 22 pts

13. Blue Devil - 21 pts

14. West Ham Rising - 19 pts
