Beat The Manager Review: Week 8

Last updated : 05 October 2009 By Dan Buxton
Step forward Knoweyedeer who lept up three places to top the table and took the lead in gameweek 8 after correctly predicting the Potters trip to Everton would end in a one all draw.

There were three other correct predictions as Buxtons picks, Cumbrian Select and Goatface all got the score as one apiece. PENN UNITED were the only side to have a correct result predicted but incorrect score, and that saw them leap three places to 11th as the other 9 prediction makers all picked the wrong result

Last weeks leader Peckham Pouncers dropped to 2nd after a wrong prediction, their first of the season, with the Mighty Morphin Flower Arrangers also dropping, from 2nd to 3rd, on the back of their first wrong result this season.

4th to 6th are seperated by two points as maximum points scorers Buxtons picks and Goatface sandwich Heerweege Whammers.

PENN UNITED, the oracle and Manila Maniacs are the only people to predict every game, bar one in 'the oracle' case to not get a maximum point score so far. Incidentally this week was the first time the oracle had predicted an incorrect result, with six correct results from six games prior.

Predictions can now be made for games against West Ham(H), Tottenham(A) and Wolves(H)
