All selections in now for Week 32. Still six players in in the current round, how many will make it through to Week 33? Unusually, we have five different LPS fixtures this week after a couple of exotic selections. The first four games are all on Saturday afternoon UK time, and the final fixture will  be on Sunday. Good luck to all players, especially @DwizzleyMatthews!

Oh dear, decisions, decisions.
I haven't proceeded beyond two correct picks on the trot since the start of the LPS game.
With Nottingham Forrest, Bournemouth and Southampton left as choices, after their performance against Arsenal and fighting for their survival in the Premier League, I'll put my faith in Southampton to progress.

Southampton, please @BigHewer.

[DwizzleyMatthews]

Newcastle for me please @BigHewer

[Slacker77]

@BigHewer

Liverpool please 

[BigHewer]

 

We're all set now for Week 33, with all selections in. Four players still standing, how many will make it to Week 34? The first fixture is on Tuesday evening UK time, with the next two on Wednesday and then finally the Saints taking on the Cherries on Thursday. Looking at the line-up of matches, I had been feeling rather bullish with my Wolves pick, now not so much. Good luck to all players, once again especially to @DwizzleyMatthews with his wise selection of the Mighty Toon!

Smart move, DM. Now that’s what I call a “risk hedge”. The Cherries win and you’re through; any other result and Leeds likely stay out of the bottom three

Man c please 

Man City v West Ham*

It's OK, you can just state with Faz's demise, four have become three.

With only 3 teams left to choose from (NF, Soton and B'Mouth) and 2 playing each other, I based my judgement on the previous week's results, i.e. Soton drawing away 3-3 at Arsenal and B'Mouth losing 4-0 at home to W Ham, sods law, Soton would win at home to B'Mouth - only they didn't! 

Soda law doesn't always apply, however throughout this LPS season, this particular 'sod' has been stuck to the sole of my shoe throughout, and I'm not stooping down to smell it.

My claim to fame is that I at least hit double figures, same as everyone else

Ambitious and risky, mind you I'd have made the same choice, my only other alternative being Notts Forrest.

Your unwavering faith in Leeds is shining through, like an unlit beacon in the fog

It's a case of "as you were" in Week 34, with all three players going through unscathed. So, onward we go to Week 35, with a very tricky list of fixtures, and the first game kicking off on Saturday afternoon UK time. I'll go for Nottingham Forest this week. Calling on @DwizzleyMatthews and @Slacker77 to make selections.

Bournemouth v Chelsea
Manchester City v Leeds United
Tottenham v Crystal Palace
Wolverhampton Wanderers v Aston Villa
Liverpool v Brentford
Newcastle United v Arsenal
West Ham v Manchester United

gl guys 

[BigHewer]

Week 35 picks are all in, and there are three LPS fixtures of interest. The first game will be tomorrow afternoon (Saturday) UK time, with the other two fixtures on Monday. Will we see a last person standing this week? @Marble-eye still leads the way in the overall standings, but the chasing pack are closing fast.
