WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS 1 WEST HAM 0
Wolves climbed out of the relegation zone for the first time in three months and dumped West Ham in the bottom three, after only collecting a single point from their past seven games. A magnificent 7 had this spot-on, and 7 also got the outcome.
LUTON TOWN 2 WEST BROMWICH ALBION 3

BOLTON WANDERERS 3 PORTSMOUTH 0
Dion Charles scored his 12th goal of the season as Bolton beat managerless Portsmouth to register a second win in five days over their south coast visitors. A final game this week with no 3 pointer, though 18 did have the outcome.
CHARLTON ATHLETIC 2 BARNSLEY 0
Tyreece Campbell and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi were on target as Charlton made it three league victories on the bounce under new manager Dean Holden. Only 2 had this spot-on, and another 11 got the outcome.
IPSWICH TOWN 1 PLYMOUTH ARGYLE 1
Bali Mumba rescued a point for top-of-the table Plymouth in the 93rd minute, and kept them seven points clear of third-placed Ipswich. That late equaliser was good news for the 5 who got this spot-on, and the 3 who had the outcome.
WYCOMBE WANDERERS 0 SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 1
Will Vaulks' wonder strike gave title-chasing Wednesday a hard-fought win, and they are now 18 games unbeaten in all competitions. A great 8 had this spot-on, and a further 13 got the outcome, with 9 going for a 2-1 in what was the weeks most predicted score.
ROCHDALE 1 COLCHESTER UNITED 2
Cole Skuse's 87th minute winner gave Colchester a third consectutive victory, and three aways wins in a row for the first time since 2008. That late winner was great news for all U's fans, and the 4 who got this spot-on, and the 13 who had the outcome.
SALFORD CITY 2 SUTTON UNITED 0
Conor McAleny's double, to give him five goals in only three games, boosted Salford's promotion bid, as they moved up to fifth in League 2. Sutton's cause was not helped by missing a penalty. A super 6 had this spot-on, and another 14 got the outcome.
The 10 game weeks by nature can be the defining ones in a season, and although often disappointing recently, that was certainly the case this week. Despite 4 games failing to have a 3 pointer, the other 6 made up for it in a big way, and we ended with 32 spot-ons, add to that the outcomes totalling 102, and the 198 points gave us our best 10 game week of the season so far. The record points total for a 10 game week is 18, and one of the members to equally hold that record is thrillseeker, and he came close to getting that score again this week. He came up just short with an absolutely magnificent 16 points, that contained four 3 pointers, the wins for Wolves, Wednesday and Salford, and the Ipswich 1-1, and also four outcomes. Only one member had three 3 pointers, that was Madeira163, who got the wins for Wolves, Charlton and Wednesday, and three outcomes to give him an excellent 12 points. Seven members did well to have two 3 pointers, with the best performance coming from mfb_cufc, who got the 1-0 wins for Wolves and Wednesday, and six outcomes, to give him a useful 12 points.
Happy Cup Ddetails of the draw and fixtures for the Semi-finals will be out on Thursday next week.
In the Premier Those useful 12 points have enabled mfb_cufc to stretch his lead to a decent 11 points. The magnificent week for thrillseeker has moved him up three places, and back into the second place he last held in Week 12. That means noah4x4 and RSCOSWORTH both drop a place in the other Super Cup places. Four outcomes for blueeagle, means he drops out of the top 4 again. A decent 9 points for ghughes11, the Wolves 1-0 spot-on, and six outcomes, and concordman, the wins for Wolves and Salford spot-on, and three outcomes, moves them both up a place, and with the top 4 well in their sights. After a five place rise in Week 23, it has only taken unitedwhites two weeks to return where he was in Week 22, despite an impressive seven outcomes this week. A decent 9 points also for Sector4, that included having the Wednesday 1-0 spot-on, moved him out of the relegation zone again, as he exchanges places with Daniel.
In Division One This league is really starting to hot up now, as the leaders continue to falter, and the pack close in. Five outcomes were just enough for GOSBTS to remain top for the fifth week running, and take his run in the automatics to twelve weeks. But that lead is only a point now as the excellent week for Madeira163 moved him up a couple of places, and into a season high second spot. That means despite having a spot-on each, Moor_Pinot and MrHappy2 both drop a place. A decent 9 points for bwildered, that included having the Charlton 2-0 and the Ipswich 1-1 spot-on, keeps him in fifth, and only 5 points from the automatics. A superb 10 points for oxfcolu, that had the Wednesday 1-0 and the Ipswich 1-1 spot-on, moved him up a couple of places, and back into the final play-off spot, after just a week away. Having the Wolves and Colchester wins spot-on, was not quite enough to keep Lewis_1 in the top 6, as he loses out on the most 3 pointer rule. A decent 9 points for burnsieespana, where he got the Colchester 2-1 spot-on, was not enough to stop him dropping a place, but only a point further back. The other members to get two 3 pointers this week were Blue4U2, who had the wins for Colchester and Salford, and five outcomes to give him an excellent 11 points, and move him up a couple of places to eleventh. His highest position since Week 6, and durham_exile, who got the wins for Wednesday and Salford spot-on, to give him a decent 9 points.
