Reigning champion Rich Godden fired a shot across the bows of his GKL rivals with a stunning week five display. His 83 point haul crushed the high-flying G31 Galacticos and sent out a message of intent. All rivals have been warned.
The Galacticos defeat allowed James Horncastle to sweep to the top with his Cape Crusaders. He is followed closely by Lachlan Eggo who edged past bottom side Cantenaccio in a low-scoring affair. It was a better performance, however, than his father Kenny could muster going down by a single point to Lockerbie Legends - a narrow win for Liverpool over Chelsea there.
Other strong performances came from the Rinaldi boys, Carlo and Giancarlo, both racking up more than 60 points to push the Doonhamers and Gianfranco Gorgonzola up the table. They still trail the rising Dynamo Kev and falling Villaunreal for the time being.
Worst displays of the week came from Steve Wilson, Stefano Rinaldi, Doug Archibald and Willie Johnston. All four failed to break the 40 point barrier which is the hallmark of success - better must be produced soon.
Stefano's sluggish performance aided the recovery of Kenny Ross as his Bootiful Game recorded just their second win of the season to move up the table. Under the old points system they would be breathing down Kenny Eggo's neck but, as it is, he finds himself 11 places adrift of his council rival.
The only other managers on the move were Atletico Madboy and Siciliana (on the rise) and Joe Bhoy FC (in decline). The bottom four remain unchanged.
In Serie B David Wynn threw down the gauntlet to Kieran Westbrook with a 60 point display that puts him four points from the top. America's finest, Premium Lumber, had a bad week and drop to third.
A clutch of teams will still fancy their chances of overhauling the top trio but best on the week were Midge Mowbray and Siofra Eggo who outscored her Serie A brother and father. Stephen Heath has shown a sign of life down the table at last while it is surely only a matter of time before Aidan Bain makes it off bottom spot.
