Back in August, we started with 92 players and here we are, after 30 game weeks, down to the last 10 – 10 green bottles hanging on the thin threads of (among others) Arsenal’s defensive strength, Dele Alli’s clinical finishing, Chelsea’s refusal to do anything else but win … all of which let me down.

Actually, having just rechecked my arithmetic, if Mark had made the changes I suggest above, it still wouldn’t have been enough to save him and we would’ve had 5 teams eliminated; so for weeks 35-38 I would’ve been sitting here twiddling my thumbs. So, thanks, Mark, much appreciated.
Here is the sheet:
