LEYTON ORIENT 5 HARTLEPOOL UNITED 0
An unusual refereeing mix-up led to a confusing start to the second half in Orient's thrashing of Hartlepool, with the host's Aaron Drinan netting a hat-trick. The two sides were told to swap ends four minutes into the second half, after referee Alan Young took the players off too early at the end of the first half. A final game with no 3 pointer this week, but 21 did get the outcome.
That was more like it. Even though there were five games without a 3 pointer, the other five produced a decent 25, and with a 106 total outcomes, the weeks 181 points equalled the best of the season in Week 4. Also with only one draw, the seasons percentages take a step into a direction of normality.

Just one member got three 3 pointers, that was wessex_exile, who had the wins for Chelsea, Blackburn and Huddersfield. He also had two outcomes, to give him an excellent 11 points. He has to share the honour of being the weeks top scorer with GOSBTS, who had the wins for Blackbuurn and Huddersfield spot-on, and five outcomes, to give him an excellent 11 points.

In the Premier Four outcomes for RSCOSWORTH means he takes his time at the top to 10 weeks, but a fith week in a row without a 3 pointer, has seen that lead, that was once 14 points, reduced to just 4 points now. A spot-on each for mfb_cufc, the Coventry 1-0, and Daniel, the Huddersfield 1-0, gives them both a decent 8 points. They remain second and third, but moved closer to the top. Four outcomes also for basher2010, and he remains in the final Super Cup spot. The only change in this division saw Sector4 moving up a place. The top performances in this division came from those in the bottom three, with noah4x4 getting back on track with two 3 pointers, the wins for Chelsea and Cambridge, and congratulations to ghughes11 on finally breaking his 3 pointer duck with the wins for Blackburn and Coventry. They both got a very decent 10 points, but remain in the relegation zone, as concordman got a decent 8 points that included having the Blackburn 2-1 spot-on. Even though they remain in the bottom three, there is only 8 points separating 4th to 10th. An impressive seven outcomes for Blue4U2 was not enough to get him off the bottom, but he remains well in touch with those above him.
In Division One Two spot-ons for Tropical_Us, the 1-0 wins for Coventry and Cambridge, were enough to keep him top for the fifth week running. The top scoring performance from wessex_exile moved him up a couple of places into the other automatic spot. A position his last held on the first week of the season. A good two 3 pointers for Lewis_1, the wins for Chelsea and Blackburn, but he drops a place to third. Another decent week again for gerry_us that included having the Huddersfield 1-0 spot-on, but he also drops a place. Two 3 pointers for medicine_man, the wins for Chelsea and Cambridge, to give him a decent 10 points, moves him up three places, and back into the play-offs, after three weeks away. The top scoring performance from GOSBTS takes him up four places into a season high sixth place. The first time he has been in a play-off place since he made the play-offs in the 2019/20 season. Just missing out on a play-off spot on the most 3 pointer rule again is Pinault_Noir. After spending the last seven weeks in a play-off place blueeagle drops to eighth this week. Despite getting the Cambridge 1-0 spot-on, MrHappy2 drops to a season low ninth place. Things have really tightened up at the bottom with just one point separating the bottom four places.
