I wish I had your optimism Atomic, I think we will win but not by many, big wins for Leigh could be in the past now, I watched a decent Toronto side struggle to beat Rochdale last night, this may sound negative but I can't see Leigh making the top 4 now, I hope I'm wrong but I can't see it .
Well the buzzway (as it is pronounced hereabouts) was closed today but there must be a collective buzz amongst the faithful after the Hornets were swatted aside so dismissively.
Oo’s this “Johnny-Come-Lately” Reynolds fellah? He defo wasn’t playing for us last season, nor was he earlier this. Just needs to work on his place kicking as he missed ONE!
Flag planted. Look over your shoulder London as Leigh Centurions are on the March (errm, in April). Rov Fev Fan reckons that we’ve got our mojo back but, at not far off a point a minute, it’s more like we’ve got our Flo-Jo back!
So to the scores. Atomic, Publican & Vancouver called correctly on Fax beating The Smoke (pleased to be wrong there). A minority went for a Sheffield win over Swinny but were proved right (nearest margin was from this punter – but zilch still scored). Westleighjim got a correct margin in the Fev game (bravo!) Pubbers called Bonus A, sees another 5 points for the feat and (with four correct victors) becomes the third double centurion.
Another bad weekend for Horwich Wanderers, but, with five correct winners and the only other plumb call on Bonus A, a good weekend for Doncaster Wanderer – this round’s winner for an imaginary bottle of champagne and a (very real) extra 25. So with Atomic seeing his fourth round as top of the pops it's fish-tail parkas all round:
1. Atomic on 266
2. Bongser on 213
3. Publican on 208
4. Wanderer on 193
5. Charlie on 187
6. Zulu on 173
7. Cokey on 135
8. Vancouver on 125
9. Westleighjim on 121
Then we get to this week’s absentees (we’ll ignore the zillions who won’t put they’re preds where their subjectivity is, “Bless” (served cold)). Seems we’ve lost SaBadSel (No’SaGood? – get well soon) and the braggadocio that was LeytherX111. Jack missed this week but retains his spot in the top ten of the hit parade.
10. Jack on 110
11. LX111 on 94
12. SaBadSel on 16
New puntables will be out tomorrow if Bongser is only quarter (to a third) seas over
