Season 11 - Week 9
Smith loses but still nailed on for title
Despite a loss for Jimmy Smith, further losses for Dunk and Simms mean that Smith is still assured the Season 11 title, remaining £6.49 clear of a resurgent Kinsella who, along with Rosser passed the declining Dunk and Simms.
Britcliffe still losing
Matt Britcliffe has still yet to find a winner this season and remains rooted to the bottom, closely preceded by Wickett and Drury who have only found 0.16p winners.
Rosser returns
Shakespeare's slip means that his chances of a third title in 4 years are receding rapidly, Rosser now looks favourite to secure his second Pele league title with a £2.33 lead at the top, following a cracking Blackburn away winner at 2.62
Picking joys all around
A good week for pickers saw an impressive £10.91 gain overall, this was mainly buoyed by a few speculative and spectacular away winners (see picks of the week). Overall however we remain over £100 in deficit across the season, so this is either a turning point or a fluke depending on your outlook

A great winner for the delightfully named Emma heads the way in a week of big winners, both Conduit and Hatchard backed a Boro team that last won when bankers bonuses seemed fair and received proportianate and fair returns accordingly. Bailey spotted the value in betting against a fading Burnley and Charlton and Blackley both spotted that Arsenal couldn't score in a crack den / brothel.
Final Week Shenanigans
One piece of advice from a man who has been relegated and promoted twice, don't assume the others will win. There is nothing more annoying than going long when a 1.16 would have secured you promotion, good luck and God speed.
