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 - Penultimate Update

 

Hiya, PPPers - I'm here this week to update you on the three big matches that happened this week and the effect that they had on our game. First, on Saturday, Man Utd pulled off a shock win over their city rivals in the FA Cup Final. That meant eight big points for Bee's Knees and Red Dragon. Several players opted for a Citeh win and lost out on the day. 

The next day, my beloved Leeds United went down to a big loss in the Championship Playoff Final to Southampton. So, those who had the Super Whites among the promoted sides lost three or four points and those who opted for the Saints gained those points. 

Finally, this evening, Olympiacos bested Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League Final. That netted Someone Said, the only one to pick the Greeks, two points. Red Devil chose the Florentines, so sadly lost out on those points. 

In the end, the FA Cup win vaulted Red Dragon, our current champion, and Bee's Knees to the top of the charts. So, by my calculations, it will all come down to the Champions League Final on Saturday. Red Dragon is already out, as he plumped for Man City to win, while Bee's Knees went with one of the finalists Real Madrid. So, Red Dragon will retain the Shield if Dortmund manage to defeat Real and Bee's Knees will pick up the Shield for the first time if Real win out. It couldn't any more exciting!

Here are the current standings: 

1. Red Dragon - 52 points

2. Bee's Knees - 51 pts

3. Blue Devil - 48 pts

-  Someone Said - 48 pts

5. Man Utd Rules - 46 pts

6. oticoN - 45 pts

7. Teddy Goalesevelt - 43 pts

8. MOT the Hoople - 42 pts

-  United We Stand - 42 pts

10. Gooner71 - 40 pts

11. West Ham Rising - 34 pts

12. Red Devil 1FCK - 27 pts
