Week 7Update

Dear All,

Apologies for no update last week but I was out of the office and have been up to my eyes at work since.

Anyway, with internationals being played over the weekend and tonight, you haven't missed much.

So, a week later than planned, let's have a quick look at the current situation.

Top scorer last week was The Toffees whose 41 points saw Manager Boardman jump back into third position overall. A good week was also had by Yer Ma's Athletic, leaping 10 places to 19th with 38 points, and True Blue Strikers, now back in UEFA Cup contention with 37 points.

Lowest scorers of the week are The Muppetaldinhos (surprise surprise) and Gold Coast Heroes, both scoring just 9 points, while Hoofers United didn't fair much better on 12 points.

Overall, there weren't many goals or clean sheets about this week so any manager scoring more than 20 points should be feeling happy enough. Above 30 and you're laughing!

The Dogs Ballacks hold on to the lead at the top, ahead of defending champion Maclacticos, while Con Villa remains rooted to the bottom, just below Virgin Surfers and the Muppets.

Worth pointing out is that Bazking in Glory remains in 33rd position for the FOURTH consecutive week!

Now, once again, it's time to look at who has moved from the red zone to the black zone and vice versa.

Remember that the red zone covers the league positions that will make up the first DITB Division Two next season, while the black zone represents the safety of Division One football.

Red to Black: Rising from red to black this week is Yer Ma's Athletic (29th to 19th)

Black to Red: Sliding from black to red this week is Brendy's Bruisers (20th to 23rd)

Finally, looking ahead to this year's ACP (Annual Christmas P*ss-up for any newcomers out there), I would suggest Saturday December 16 for the mother of all festive booze marathons. Again, we'll be looking at The Bot as our venue with a kick-off time of 12 noon. Brother Johnston will probably let us know what football matches will be showing that day.

Please let me know ASAP if you can make it on this date.

So that's it for this week folks.

Until next week,

READ 'EM AND WEEP!!!!!!...............
