Matchday 5 Results: Some big surprises and more Impossibilitee firsts!

Where on earth to start with this weekend's football?

Arsenal doing what they do best in wasting great chances and giving up any semblance of defending to lose a lead twice and ultimately the match...

Swansea getting their first goals and their first PL win...

Joey Barton starting on opposing fans again...

Liverpool showing the the Dalglish era (take 2) still has a few creases to iron out...

Man City showing a fallible side...

Man Utd giving AVB's Chelsea a seeing to, with a certain SeƱor Torres ensuring he will be in the final segment of "Premier League greatest shocks" for the next 20 years, with D-list celebs commenting on just how unbelievable that miss was...

From a game point of view, from last week's very high scores, we had a bit of a lull....

21 people played this week - a new game high! Welcome to all new players!
Most popular predicted result: Man City WIN (95% concordance)
Most disputed result: Spurs vs Liverpool (7:7:7 - a rare three way split!)

Longest Odds: Me! 29,052/1

Best Predictor: Joe Miller (7/10) - 2nd time
Worst Predictor: Will O'Doherty (0/10 - a first!)...high on the egg chasing triumph early on Saturday...

Best Predicted result: Man Utd WIN (18/21)
Worst Predicted result: Blackburn WIN & Fulham vs Man City DRAW (1/21) - Kudos to Joel & Ryan Wain

I scored 4 out of 10 (all on Saturday when I was 4/6....)

Villain of the week: None this week I'm afraid!

Full results below:


There is a new leader at the top of the leaderboard - Joe Miller usurping Feneley, whilst Will O Doherty's miserable effort sees him slip way down the board! Remember, to qualify for the leaderboard, you have to have played >2/3 of weeks, so this week is a minimum of 4/5 weeks.

Finally, I'd just like to thank all of you who invited friends to join....the idea behind this was that loads of people I know place accumulators each week for the football, and this arena allows for mates to see how dismal they are compared to each other...

So if you have any friends who would be into this sort of thing, get them to play along next week!

See you later in the week!

Ah well, all good things come to an end I suppose!
