    Welcome all!

    It's been a little while since a Premier League game took place but that's just given me more time to put off writing this up <whistle>

    Some ambitious and successful answers this week, but also some ambitious ones that went horribly wrong... but first, let's remind ourselves of the league table after 4 game weeks:

    Let's start with the incorrect answers, in order of lowest league position to highest...

    Incorrect Answers:

    1) Propping everyone up at the bottom of the table (and not looking very good at all it must be said), I don't think there's going to be much sympathy from these boards however...

    Incorrect Answer - Sunderland
    Having A Good Time
    KWW1958



    2) Lying one place above the not so noisy neighbours is our next answer but there are bigger things to come we all feel. Looking at our opening fixtures this was definitely a brave gamble that didn't pay off for this one player...

    Incorrect Answer - Newcastle United
    El Marko


    3) When I wrote this question out originally I didn't think that we'd have the bottom 3 teams as answers but it's happened...

    Incorrect Answer - Stoke City
    CryMeARiviere
    BobbyD
    LaFraise92
    Less Hope Than Neville



    4) This team was probably thought of as one of the 'safe' bets but that definitely isn't the case. Labouring in mid-table (13th) for the first time in a decade or more it's not a happy 3rd season back for Jose...

    Incorrect Answer - Chelsea
    Alfie
    Beatski
    TJR



    5) Our next chosen answer is sitting in 11th place and well deserving of it. Attacking without fear you can't help but hope they don't go the same way as Blackpool though...

    Incorrect Answer - Bournemouth
    Nolberto's Salsa Inferno


    6) I actually thought this team were sat lower than 10th but they've been fairly unremarkable so far. Maybe I'm just disappointed as this team ensures that my losing streak stretches to 4 consecutive weeks...

    Incorrect Answer - Southampton
    Bodacious Benny
    Cisse's Overheating Torso
    Frank Dialogue
    TommyToonAA



    7) Finally, with this team just one place below the top it means one player was so close yet so so so far from the all important ace...

    Incorrect Answer - Liverpool
    Albert's Chip Shop


    We shall all get our scores after the correct answers have been revealed next.

    I was debating in which order to reveal these but it's worked out very nicely indeed!

    Correct Answers:

    1) In 6th place after 4 games, and conveniently our SHEEP answer, this north London team were many people's surprise bet for the title this year. They'll have to improve massively if they're to mount a serious challenge but for these players they're in the top 6 and that's what counts...

    Correct Answer - Arsenal
    B4E
    Beardface
    DimiNUFC
    In Biscan We Trust
    Karljay
    SAFC83



    2) In 5th place (and our second most popular correct answer [you can see the pattern emerging here]) is a team who used to be renowned for bringing through youth talent in the '90s, then for a pretty scary old man instilling the fear of losing into his fairly mediocre teams. Now they're trying to buy the league which is soooooo early 2000's...

    Correct Answer - Manchester United
    CheikyTiote
    Don Sholeone



    3) Who'd have thought it! This team in the champions league spots! This one player did...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Leicester City
    Sebb's Campaign Manager


    4) Unsurprisingly the media are loving this team being in the top 2...

    Correct Answer - Crystal Palace
    Yacob


    5) Top of the league, best team in the league by a country mile and only one person chose them...

    Correct Answer - Manchester City
    Radioheed


    On to the scores now!

    OK so those of us who were incorrect (yet again) receive 11 points (SHEEP answer of 6 [Arsenal] and 5 correct answers). The table now looks like this with B4E dropping off the top despite being correct. No change at the bottom except for SAFC83 and Karljay both moving away from the bottom group!

    Thanks for reading and I'll see you next week for the gameweek 5 reveal! <ok>

    Clearly a case of quality beginning to show in the League table positions.

    Wouldn't you agree Bisc? That is what we call "owned" where I come from.

    I misread the rules. Didn't realise the wrong answer incurred was for how many correct answers there were!.

    Hopefully i'll be reining in the leaders again in the near future
