In GW32 IGM gave EIB a good kicking at The Stadium of [s]Faff[/s] Faith (+58 ) to increase their overall lead to 527pts. Is the writing on the wall? Is Pista ready to wave his white flag? Are all players in EIB already looking at booking end of season golfing holidays in Dubai?
Due to the FA Cup semi-finals this GW, the FPL fixture list is reduced to seven matches instead of its usual ten. ARS, AVL, HUL, LIV, QPR & SUN all have a blank GW. The dilemma as always is; do I take the hits to field 11, or become a Rider on the Storm?
Especially when we know DGW34 and DGW37 are waiting in the wings. The FPL Siren's call is alluring, but are they wanting to keep us safe and in deep waters? Or bring us crashing onto the rocks? It's an individual choice. Nick Cave once told me that.
As we enter the final straight, I've had a look at the individual placings for the first time this season:
1. FC Bennweg-Zeis 1921 (Johnny Rev7.0) are top of the pile with a lead of 69pts. Whilst the Yellow Jersey has become a staple part of their satorial elegance in recent weeks, they're not counting their chickens just yet.
2. Spiritwalkers (Mav787) have been hovering around the top placings all season and are having an Almighty battle with...
3. Charlotte's Carnage (GOD). There's only 11pts between them.
(Author's reference note: Both the Head Coach and the Assistant Head Coach of the Industrial Groove Machine occupy the top two places.)
Actually, the more I look at the table, the more I'm not prepared to call anything. This is a funny old game, and there's still six GWs to go, so anything can happen. Someone will go on a run and shoot up the table. Hopefully it won't effect me.
Good luck all!
