16th-18th September
52 players were still standing for Round 5, as we resumed action after the
international break. Five different teams had been picked in this round.
On Saturday, in the 3pm games, Fulham hosted Luton at Craven Cottage – 18
players had picked the Cottagers to continue Luton’s pointless streak and a 1-0
win was enough to see them through. Tottenham hosted Sheffield United at the
Tottenham stadium – 26 players had picked Spurs in this one, making them the
most popular pick in this round with half the remaining players picking them and
it looked like an LMS upset was on the cards until 2 injury time goals saw Spurs
win 2-1! In the Saturday teatime game, Newcastle took on Brentford at St James’
Park – Dan Milton, Gemma Jackson, Paul Allman, Pauline Jackson and Vikki Darby
were backing the Magpies to bounce back after a couple of recent defeats and an
edgy 1-0 saw them progress.
On Sunday, Everton were still looking for their 1st win of the season as Arsenal
headed to Goodison Park – Graeme Tinker and Lin Maiden expected the Blues to
still be looking for their 1st win after this game and they are, after another
1-0 win.
Finally, on Monday night, Nottingham Forest welcomed Burnley to the City ground
– Alfie Robinson had picked Forest to leave Burnley still looking for their 1st
point.
Deadline for Round 6 is
noon
on
Friday 22nd September.
