Down 4 to 5th Graham Highton

Monthly - Simon Baldwin and Sam Martin take an early lead in the month. 

Overall - All of a sudden it is all change at the top as we start to approach the final stretch of the season. Simon Baldwin for the first time season reaches the summit. Amazing considering he was 19th on week 8, it shows it can be done from an unfavourable position. Pushed by son Harry its not a surprise who has now moved up to 4th. Graham Jeffries moves back into the top 3. The big loser is Graham Highton as falls from top spot to 5th.

Monthly - Very interesting end to the monthly prizes month(s). Harry Baldwin and Paul Leech both pulled it out of the bag because of their sub squads. Their main teams just didn't pull their weight. Paul Gerrard lost out because of just goal difference. Harry takes the £40 1st prize, Paul Leech £20.

Overall - Graham Highton stays top, just 5pts separating the top 5, it has now suddenly become wide open. Everyone in the top 10 with a good run has a chance of taking the title.

Two replays this weekend.

Incredibly the two players who scored bonus points this weekend met in the replay. Harry Baldwin can considered unlucky losing to a bonus bonus from Craig Frost.

Craig will now play Graham highton in the first semi final

In the other replay, Ade Heathcote's draw was enough to take him past Jay Harmer who lost 4-3.

Newcomer Ade will play Paul Gerrard in the 2nd semi.

These games will be played week 28 (1st to 4th March)

Week 26

Wins = 10 (double bonus = 1 - Craig Frost)(Single Attacking bonus = 1)(Single Defensive bonus = 0)

Draws = 6 (0 bonus)

Loses = 11 (Losing Bonus = 1 - Chris Lyons, Conner Jones, Graham Jeffries, Jordan Gower)

Draws = 4

Loses = 18

Up 5 - Craig Frost to 7th

Down none

Monthly - Just one week to go in this long month and Harry Baldwin is 2pts clear of Paul Leech a further point clear from Paul Gerrard. It looks like it is between those 3. As we had to squeeze an extra week in due to the Prem partial break this monthly extends to 8 weeks last minute - it would have been split into 2 months otherwise at the start of the season. The prizes have been assigned so we can't do this. 

Overall - Graham Jeffries is finally removed from top spot to be replaced by Graham Highton. He has been leading the league since week 3! Paul Leech is 3rd closely followed by the Baldwin pair. 

Hi all

Well done to Paul Gerrard and Graham Highton (damn you!) on making it through to the semi finals 

The other two games go to replays this weekend. 

Harry Baldwin v Craig Frost (come on Harry!)

Jay Harmer v Ade Heathcote.
