MATCH WEEK 9: KNACKERS BEST AGAIN
Robert Metzger takes the Manager of the Week trophy for Match Week 9. Robert's Knackers are the first to top the weekly charts three times and Knackers are up to 4th in the Overall League. However, Robert has been hammering his Jokers and now has no Subs or Captain Jokers remaining. This week, a Subs Joker was particularly successful. It's pretty tough to play a Subs Joker and get all 16 boys in action but Robert did just that, and saw a huge 34 points come in from the bench. The only big blots on Knackers' copybook were keeper Petrovic (-3) and picking their second worst performer as captain in James Garner (0).
MANTIPODEAN BACK ON TOP
47 points is less than half Robert's total for the week, but it's enough to see Simon Gardner return to the top of the Overall League with Mantipodean Albion after two weeks away. Patrick Reilly slips to 2nd following a 36-point week with Brighton disappointing for Black Cats among the Seagulls.
ROUND THE LEAGUES
80 points is the second best for the week - and the best if you exclude Knackers' Subs Joker points - and it sees Richard Hancy return to the top of the Nightmare Premier League. Good team selection from Richard, leaving out both minus-points boys Rodoni (-2) and Robertson (-4). Alex Metzger is up a couple of places to 2nd - Captain Joker for Alex saw Harvey Barnes take the armband for 20 points. Outgoing leader Colette Anthony drops two to 3rd. Matt Woodmansey bounces straight back out of the relegation spots, up two to 6th with David Metzger doing the opposite to return to the drop zone.

Five weeks top of the Nightmare Championship now for Patrick Reilly, but his disappointing 36 coupled with Robert Metzger's 96 sees the gap chopped from 93 to 33 points. Barbara Willingham drops into the relegation zone with Garry Simpson - after climbing off bottom spot last week - up two places to the safety of 7th.

Frodo Willingham has been a table-topper longer than anyone else - that's eight weeks at the summit of Nightmare League One now for The Cat Flaps. Marc Snell does reduce the gap a little this week, from 37 to 30. Sharon Fyne displaces daughter Keeley in the promotion spots. Having three defensive players from Bournemouth lost Keeley 9 points as Petrovic, Antonio Silva and Truffert each scored -3. No change in the bottom three.

Not much movement in Nightmare League Two, just 5th and 6th swapping places. Simon Gardner stays top and is now 105 points clear. 2nd place Howard Thomas was the Match Week's worst performer of the week in League Two with just 22. Ayari (-4), James Hill (-4), Awoniyi (-3) and captain Kelleher (-2) doing some serious damage while Howard could have done with Hornicek (9) and Leif Davis (7) in his 11. Andy Teale in 3rd had a poor week too with 34 points, but it's enough to move Andy within 2 points of Howard. The division's top two teams are now in 4th and 5th - Kate Young and Charlotte Halsey will be aiming to move in on those promotion spots in the coming weeks...
