The Championship is a minefield

A Championship team let me down once again last night, when red hot Burnley faltered at home, once again, to a battling QPR side. To be honest, it’s kind of my own fault, as I should have taken their poor home form into account more, but I still thought they’d have enough to put away QPR, who were bottom of the league at the time and hadn’t won in eight games.

I’ve never known a league to be so, so unpredictable and let me down so many times in one season. Seriously. West Brom have let me down three times, Watford have let me down three or four times, Stoke have let me down, Charlton have let me down twice, Ipswich have let me down and now Burnley have let me down. It’s a minefield, I’m telling you.

Take a look at the table and how it stands at the moment. It really is quite bizarre. The points tally practically goes up by one point for every position. Between the team in first, and the team lying bottom. the only numbers missing between the two respective points totals are nineteen, twenty nine, thirty six and thirty nine. Unbelievable.

I think I’m going to keep this league at arms lengths for the next couple of weeks and see how it goes…

Elsewhere, I got five of my six tips up, taking my strike rate to 72.28%, which I’m pretty pleased with.

I hope midweek has been successful for you, making the Bookmakers pay for your last minute Christmas presents. I’ll be back on Friday morning with a look at all of the weekend football action, including Grand Slam Sunday!
