| MATCH WEEK 39: JUST 5 POINTS SEPARATE BIG TWO |
Andrew White takes Match Week 39's Team of the Week trophy with Swiffer and a big 124 points, pretty much confirming the Nightmare League One title for Andrew. With Captain and Subs Jokers in play, Andrew assembled his squad well with all 16 in action and no less than 53 points coming from the bench. Jan Paul van Hecke took the auto-armband with 14 doubled to 28, but it could have been better with Swiffer's two best performers for the week on the bench and thus ineligible for the Captain Joker. Mads Hermansen hit 15 while Randal Kolo Mouani topped the lot with 19.
Jonathan Andrews is second best for the week with 118 points and it sets us up beautifully for a final-day showdown between Jonathan and Matt Woodmansey for the Nightmare Premier League and Overall League titles. 58 behind before the Match Week began, Mr Magoo's 118 is 53 more than Clem Fandango's. The gap is now just 5 points. As both double-Jokered, Jonathan gained 15 for auto-captain Hermansen, while Matt's best boys Matz Sels and Alexis Mac Allister scored just 7. Both will double-Joker again in Match Week 40... that Captain Joker could well be the deciding factor. |
| FINAL DAY - NIGHTMARE PREMIER LEAGUE |
| Beyond the big two there is not much to be decided in the Nightmare Premier League. Relegation is surely sorted, while Colette Anthony will take 3rd place unless Eloise Willingham can make up 47 points. If there is to be a last minute change in a crucial position it's Eloise's 4th spot that's most in danger. That's the final Champions' League place - Richard Hancy can pinch it by making up 41 points, Alex Metzger 43. |

| FINAL DAY - NIGHTMARE CHAMPIONSHIP |
Totally different in the Nightmare Championship where all the key issues are still wide open. Liam Oliver spends a third week on top but is only 35 ahead of Chris Bounds and Liam has no Jokers remaining while Chris will double. Chris' squad could do with some rare surgery to make the Subs Joker valuable, though, with four on the bench that did not play in Match Week 39. No Jokers either for David Metzger in 3rd, who could still harbour dreams of a massive final week to take the title. David is 65 off top, but may be more concerned about hanging on to the third and final promotion spot. Garry Simpson is 26 behind, John-Paul Meredith a further 9 back, and Paul Willingham 5 points behind JP. Even then Frodo Willingham in 8th is only 62 from the promotion spots.
Frodo, though, is being caught by Barbara Willingham as she fights to escape relegation. Barbara top-scored in the Championship this week with 102 points, 17 more than Frodo. Same again next week and Barbara will pip Frodo by a point - but if everyone scores the same on final week it would remarkably be Paul W that would get relegated. |
| FINAL DAY - NIGHTMARE LEAGUE ONE |
Andrew White's Team of the Week display surely confirms the Nightmare League One title for Swiffer. The gap is now 107 to Patrick Reilly in 2nd. Patrick will finish 2nd and Robert Metzger will take the other promotion place in 3rd. Alan Walker currently holds the last Champions' League spot in 4th - Bob Thomas needs to make up 14 points.
If we have enough new entries to make a new division next season, there will be relegation from League One. Benjamin Williamson did himself a power of good this week, second best in the division with 91, climbing two spots to 6th, now three places and 50 points from the danger zone. While the bottom two are surely doomed, it's James Willingham currently sitting in the 'top' relegation spot. James was third-best this week to give Ipswich Invincibles a decent chance of survival on the final day. Steve Phillips is 26 ahead of James, Rosalie Pearson 29. |
