Week 37 Results
NORWICH 0 SUNDERLAND 3
Sunderland boost their survival hopes with this comfortable win. By scoring from the spot today, they have now scored with their last 17 penalties in the Premier League. Last missing one in December 2011. Nobody got this spot-on, and only 3 had the outcome. 15 predicted a win for Norwich.
MANCHESTER UNITED 1 ASTON VILLA 0
This defeat means Villa have gone 16 away games without a win, and are now relegated for the first time since 1987. Not surprisingly all 24 predicted a win for Man Utd, but they all expected them to score more than one. So it is just the one point for everybody.
NEWCASTLE 3 SWANSEA 0
Newcastle boost their hopes of survival, as they get their first win under Bernitez. Nobody had this spot-on, but 10 did get the outcome.
PRESTON 1 MK DONS 1
10-man franchise edge closer to relegation with this draw, after Preston miss a late penalty, to deny the 7 who had them to win 2-1. There were 3 who got this spot-on, and 1 other had the outcome. The other 20 predicted a Preston victory.
SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 1 IPSWICH 1
Sixteen-year-old Andre Dozell scores on his debut for Ipswich. He is the son of Jason, who also scored on his debut for Ipswich as a sixteen-year-old. Well done to wessex_exile for being the only one to have this spot-on, with nobody getting the outcome. There were 22 who predicted a win for Sheff Wed.
CHESTERFIELD 0 SHEFFIELD UNITED 3
Sheff Utd keep their faint play-off hopes alive with this comfortable win. Another game that produces no 3 pointers, with 7 having the outcome.
COLCHESTER 1 PETERBOROUGH 4
The great escape hits the buffers, as the U's go back to their bad old ways. With 20 predicting a Colchester win, and the other 4 going for a draw, no points for anybody here.
FLEETWOOD 1 OLDHAM 1
Both teams stay in relegation trouble after this draw. A result that will please the 5 who got this spot-on, with 3 having the outcome.
LEYTON ORIENT 3 DAGENHAM & REDBRIDGE 2
Dag & Red are relegated with this defeat, after a nine year stay in the League. Nobody got this spot-on, but a big 21 did have the outcome.
PORTSMOUTH 1 PLYMOUTH 2
Plymouth score two in a minute late on, to come from behind, and beat their promotion rivals. Yet another game that doesn't produce any 3 pointers, and only desthegooner got the outcome. There were 18 who predicted a win for Portsmouth.
The penultimate week of the season, and what an incredibly tough one it turned out to be. In fact it was the lowest scoring 10 game week of the season, with only the three games ending 1-1, producing the weeks nine 3 pointers. The wins for Man Utd and Leyton Orient gave everybody some points, but five other bankers bit the dust. The 3 pointers were shared out with nine members getting one each, so the weeks top scorer was going to be the one who got the most other outcomes. That resulted in a tie, with RSCOSWORTH and concordman both getting four each, and a very good 7 points.
In the Premier, a solid 5 points for ethicsgirl, in what was a low scoring week, increases her lead to a decent 6 points. She also has far more 3 pointers than any of the challengers, so the title is hers to lose. Only three outcomes for mfb_cufc, but it was enough to move him up a place into second. But such is the battle for Charity Shield spots, with only two points separating second to fifth, this could be decided by the first to post rule. A big final week from sixth and seventh, Sector4 and wessex-exile, could see them gatecrash the party. The top scoring week for RSCOSWORTH eases his relegation worries, as any of the bottom three are now going to need a decent week to avoid the drop. A no show from TheNet hasn't helped his cause. So in a season where there has never been much between the top and bottom in this league, has come to the final week, with everybody except for perhaps noah4x4, having something to play for.
In Division One, another solid 5 points for burnsieespana has surely sealed the title for him. Automatic promotion has been secured, but who will join him? The favourite is still jonestones, and even though their play-off spots are all but secured, Tropical_Us and ColuKev will need a big final week to deprive him. With Barsidepete also getting a solid 5 points, he is looking good for one of the other play-off spots. The favourite for the final play-off place is gsy163, but after his top scoring effort this week, concordman will be looking for more of the same next week.
THE TABLES (270 out of 280 played)
(Tie-breaker: Most 3 pointers, and then the first to post)
Gunnerjosh and s.sutton87 have been expelled from Division One.
Week 38 Fixtures Picked by mrhappy, in what will be his last week before he retires as President of the Happy League. With so much to play for, a reminder of the rule: NO MORE THAN FOUR SCORES THE SAME AS YOUR NEAREST RIVAL(S) PLEASE.

Well said brother. |
Beginning with zero is not a good start, me after the first. I've been able to notch as little as 1 or 2 points in a 10-game week.
So I feel nothing is for granted.
Hoping I make the playoffs.
.....
Fascinating that we get Liverpool v Newcastle...
... but there is not enough interest to broadcast Everton v Man Utd in the US. | |

Saturday's early result
DERBY 1 SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 1
A late goal from Derby will please the 4 (thrillseeker, RSCOSWORTH, sevebalo, jonestones,) who got this spot-on, with 3 others having the outcome. That is two spot-ons out of two so far for sevebalo and jonestones. The 6 points for sevebalo means noah4x4 has after all got something to play for this week. Avoiding relegation. The 6 points for jonestones has virtually guaranteed promotion for him.
A further update with the latest tables will follow after this afternoons games. [Post edited 23 Apr 2016 14:49]

With just the Tottenham v West Brom game to come, there is only the final relegation spot to be decided in the Premier, and who plays who in the Division One play-offs.
In the Premier, it is Congratulations to ethicsgirl, on winning the title for the first time. She will be joined in the Charity Shield by mfb_cufc and Gate16, who will play each other, in what is a repeat of last seasons semi-final. In the other semi-final ethicsgirl will play Happy Cup winner desthegooner. At the bottom, it has looked like going to the last game all season, and it has turned out that way. What we do know is, after winning the title last season mrhappy has been relegated, and he will be joined by TheNet, who sealed his fate with yet another no show. One person who wont be joining them is sevebalo, who pulled off a real Houdini act with his three spot-ons, that has given him a brilliant 11 points to date. He definitely survives because like RSCOSWORTH he has Tottenham to win 3-0. The person in the final relegation spot, in the table as it stands, noah4x4, will require Tottenham to win 3-1 for him to survive, any other result and he is down.
In Division One, it is Congratulations to burnsieespana, who wins the title in his first season. He is joined in the Premier by another newbie jonestones. The play-offs will be between the four who occupy the positions at the moment. We are just waiting on the Tottenham result to see who is playing who. At the bottom Daniel picks up the wooden spoon for the second season running.
There will be a separate thread with the final update and tables after the Tottenham game on Monday night.

A very big well done to Ethics Girl on winning her first Championship. I know you have been close in a number of competitions so winning is all the sweeter. Congratulations !  |  | | |

Wowser, performance of the season just at the right time. Commiserations to whichever of RS and Noah face the drop and fair play for predicting on merit and not relegating me with a tactical selection.
Thanks to MFB for running a tight ship and in particular for the gripping final day updates. |  | | |

Thanks MFB. I have enjoyed my first season due to your excellent stewardship and brilliant updates. Can't believe the season is over. What the hell am I going to do on Saturday mornings now?!!!
P.S. Burnsie deserves a medal. His predictions have been on point throughout the season and he has accrued a massive end of season total; a worthy champion. | | | |

Thank you Mr Happy, commiserations to Gate who led for so long and to BFG and MFB who both came so close. It's a very fine league indeed  |
I won't truly be impressed until you win MFB's and my Happy Cup next season.
It's a joke!
Fabulous. You really kicked tushie, Eggs.
Stunning knowledge of football. You have always impressed me in our meetings. You must have been born with a football in your arms.
It just proves that a vegetarian can also win the Premier League  | |

Tottenham to win 3-1 is a 12/1 shot, so they are the odds for noah4x4 to avoid being relegated. Is there going to be a final twist, to what has been the closest Premier in Happy League history. | |

I was 1 goal in stoppage time from being relegated a handful years ago. Don't recall who was playing. Back then it was a last second great escape. | |
