31st August – 1st September

Web Site	LMS Rules	Hall of Fame

116 players are still standing for Round 3 of this game. Nine different teams have been picked in this round – two of them in the same game. One of the picks was by default. Only the Newcastle v Spurs and United v Liverpool games don’t feature.

On Saturday, in the lunchtime game, Arsenal face Brighton at the Emirates- both teams have a 100% record – 16 players are hoping that the Gunners still have theirs after this game – Tony Ainsworth didn’t send a selection through so he gets them by default. In the 3pm games, Brentford face Southampton at the Gtech Community stadium – 29 players have picked the Bees. Everton are looking for their 1st points of the season as Bournemouth make the trek to Goodison Park – Chris Grierson, Dave Rogers and Harry Dealing are hoping for 3rd time lucky for the Blues whilst Abi Donafee is hoping they remain pointless – at least one of them will go out! Ipswich welcome Fulham to Portman Road – Carl Jackson Snr and Peter Donnelly have picked the Cottagers. Leicester entertain Aston Villa at the Walkers stadium – 6 players have picked Villa. Nottingham Forest take on Wolves at the City Ground – 6 players have picked Forest. In the teatime game, West Ham have a visit from Manchester City to the London Stadium – Gary Storer, John Roberts, Neil Taggart, Roberto Zanni and Ste Matthews have picked City.
On Sunday, Chelsea have a London derby as Crystal Palace visit Stamford Bridge – 48 players have picked Chelsea.

Round 4 is after the international break. Deadline for Round 4 will be Friday 13th September at 12pm. Looking slightly ahead, I am away on holiday from 16th September – I will be on a cruise so will only have a phone signal at limited times (and I am too tight to pay for the ship’s wi-fi!!) so Rounds 5 & 6 will have earlier than usual deadlines – Thursdays at 12pm and I won’t have time to nudge people for their picks like I normally try to do. You have been warned!!.
