Well done to '6 in a row' who was the only player to predict all 5 results correctly. It moves him to joint top with CLG on 60 points. There are 9 players on 58. Word of commiseration to Real Kerry Fan who didn't score - the other two nil points did not send in predictions. We have also lost JamesMayo and tribute leaving 53 players.

I will post next week's after the draw.

Gentle reminder - though I expect a lot of you are waiting to see what happens with Dan Gordon before deciding on the Wexford-Down game. By next Monday (assuming all 4 games are decided) we will have had 47 games so far and very few draws for a change! Hard to believe that after this weekend (barring replays) there will be only 7 games left to decide Sam!

Right Earwig Joe and its eyes down for Week 13! Down overwhelming favs, Tyrone too more favoured than Mayo, Fermanagh similarly with the Farney and the Kingdom outcome a lot tighter. A number of people have gone for the Ulster clean sweep so lets see what happens! Good luck to all!

Well in other weeks when we had more games and you thought daylight might have appeared at the top, this week saw a real slaughter! No-one scored full points and the 'Ulster clean sweep' hopefuls gained only 2 points! A record number scored Ireland's recent Eurovision score - nil points! But CLG's six sees him out front alone on 66. GMG and Flanders are on 64 with 5 more on 62 and a further 5 on 60!

I have to say JayoCluxton is scratching his head somewhat at picking up only 2 points for a Wexford win! I fancied both Kildare and Kerry and as well Tyrone were the fav choice - so quite how I ended up with 2 is beyond me - never mind! My old buddy RKF remains at the bottom but his team can still win Sam so that's some consolation! Anyway 7 games to go for Sam!

Ok people - barring replays this is the last multi-fixture weekend and we have three up for decision as below. I am sure a lot of players are scratching their heads after their tipping performance last weekend - I know I am. Now is the chance to redeem yourself.

It's probably fair to say that some people cannot possibly win it now - but keep going. You have persevered for 13 weeks now so you might as well continue for another three or four. See how far up the table you can get - maybe be your county's top tipster? And Jayo will give a critique at the end so a few more points may save you from a 'vicious' ribbing!

Get 'em in to [email protected] before noon on Friday please!!

Saturday
Armagh v Wexford (2.0)
Kerry v Galway (4.0)

Sunday
Cork v Kildare (2.0)

Dunno whats wrong with yis at all this week is it the recession or a hangover from a bad tipster weekend. Only 7 in so far - keep 'em rolling!
