@The Wolf In The North - in the interest of honesty and integrity of the league - I have to point out you’ve made an errorWeek 13 Results

It was a tricky old round, with half the participants not even breaking 20 points, but one fearless fellow laughed in the face of absurdity to claim his first Award of the season and third overall - and he did it in curious fashion. As those about him toiled, Contrarian racked up an incredible 37 points on Saturday alone, with three correct scores, two doubled, from 8 of 10 fixtures. He then managed to take no points from Sunday at all (you expect consistency from someone named Contrarian?), but his overnight lead was far too powerful to be overhauled.
Rincewind gave it a hearty try, reaching 33 points with 9 from Sunday's games, and hitting two correct scores, whilst Leominster Wolf returned to form with three correct to reach 30 points. Purplepault69 also got three correct, one doubled, to continue a recent run of impressive totals.
Numerous special mentions of the week, going to Lonewolf for Man City's 1-1, Leominster for Brighton's 3-2, Celebrity Wolf for Arsenal's 1-0, and Hicko for Rennes' 3-1. But also a word for Hicko spectacularly changing his mind from Bochum 114 Heidenheim 0 to 0-0, which also earned 5 points. Fine margins.
And then we have WolvesAndCows. SuperGran, over to you, my dear...

Huge Of Sharjah extends his lead to 8 points with another consistent week, whilst Jrpb-3 slipped on an oily fish of bad luck, allowing Chris H, Purplepault69 and Wolf In Wednesbury to overtake. Contrarian hurtles up to 6th place, and Leominster Wolf rises from 20th to 10th.

Purplepault69 has 9 correct scores in the past three weeks, and powers into an outright lead, the first to reach the quarter century this season. He and Wolvessince63 still share the record for at least one correct score every week.

There were two 5-goalers this week, and two 0-0s, and Bigcheese hit both the first two and one of the latter for 12 points, alongside Melbourne Wolf, who also truffled out a goalless minus. Leominster Wolf collected the best plus score of 13 but was unlucky to pick up -3 from Frosinone, and Iamthenewno2 also nabbed both the 5-goal matches but was undone by Sheffield Utd.

SingYourHeartsOut now leads by 10, after a grim return from WolvesAndCows (the Bundesliga curse), and Wolvessince63 is now in second place just ahead of Bigcheese and Purplepault69.
My prediction for Brighton was 1-3 and not 2-3, with me being annoyed at the second goal being gifted to them by a suspect penalty award.
my total for the week should (by my reckoning) be 27 and not 30.
In the interests of not having my fellow competitors chanting ‘Leominster Wolf Corrupt as ****’ can you update.
