DAY 8 - THURSDAY JUNE 18th
Day 8's Manager of the Day trophy is shared by three with 11 points each. Jeff Norton started with a perfect 5 for Czechia 1 South Africa 1, following up with three correct results for 2 points each. Jeff's up 17 places from 30th to 13th and just 4 points from 4th. The other two MotD winners are on the up but with a lot more work to do, still outside our top 100. William Montague was the only one to predict Switzerland 4 Bosnia 1 for an 8-pointer, while Mara Adler's randomised scores brought in two spot-on.
Ryan Leather had a decent day with 7 points which included the correct margin for Mexico v South Korea, predicting 2-1 on a 1-0. Ryan's up to 60th place... remarkably that was a 16th correct result with no correct scores or even correct margins in the first 15. One correct margin now on the board, Ryan remains the highest placed team without a correct score.
It's now four days in a row on top for Neil Mullen, but just 4 points from four predictions on the day. Roisin Guargena failed to take full advantage with 5 points - though significantly finished the day with a 3-pointer while Neil failed to score, closing the gap to 2 points. A 10 point day for Callum Cooper sees him up to 3rd and just 3 off top spot.
In our Mini Leagues... in Bunch of auld gits FC Niall MacKenzie is the new leader, swapping 3rd/1st with Steven Jewell. Paul Willingham takes over on top of the Columbus & Friends League. Luci Metzger goes top of Metzger's league.
Norah Ettaouchi climbs 28 places to 49th with a 10 point day. Significant because Norah only entered after the first nine matches had already been played. Since joining, Norah has averaged 1.79 points per match - form which would put her fourth overall.
