A difficult week to find winners with several popular selections not producing the expected result, so we only had 12 winners overall and a large loss.  @Tiffy single-handedly pulled Division 3 into profit with a massive 40.6 treble win and leads the way in the best odds win for the season as well as now sitting on top of the overall table with over quadruple bank.  @Mitchell Hart came next best with a 5.6 treble.  @Gzeven makes it 3 wins out of 3 and is the only one with the hat-trick so far.

As is often the way in the final week we finish the season with our lowest number of weekly wins, only 13, and biggest overall loss, as the gamblers go big and the risk averse go small odds.  But this doesn't detract from what has been a record breaking season!  Every Division bar one made a substantial profit overall and the losing Division only made a small loss.  And it wasn't just thanks to one or two big individual winners, a fabulous 43 players finished in profit or breakeven and 96 of 108 finishers had at least one winning bet.
At the top of the overall league is first season player @HERE who has been magnificent with 8 wins and has staked big but wisely with their bank never being in danger of going bust.   Level with 8 wins, and ahead for much of the way, is @corky.  These 2 will share the new prize for most number of wins over the season.   
A long way behind our winner, but with totals over £600 which would have won in some previous seasons, are @ivailobg, @Cuko and @Data with less than £20 between them, followed by @thebestthere also finishing over £500.
Our winner for the highest odds win is @Cuko with the 38.628 treble (5.5*2.62*2.75) in week 9.
Everyone who completed will be allocated a new Division based on finishing order, for the season to start after the International Break and I'll invite those who busted 'all in' back into Division 6 along with any new or rejoining players.

Total failure from me on these overall updates at the moment, but here is the overall standing at the top after week 9.
@corky had yet another win to make it 8 in total (only loss in week 3) and can only be equalled potentially by @HERE currently on 7 and absolutely romping away with the top bank since week 3.  
@Cuko currently holds the record for the biggest odds win at 38.628 in week 9 just beating @bymatrix on 38.2 in week 7.   Cuko is also next best again with a 24.403 in week 2.  These are actually the only successful bets over 20.0. 
Of the players left playing now, 96 have had at least one win with only 11 still looking for that elusive winner.  We have had 285 winners in total from our 126 starters.  Every Division is currently in profit.  Magnificent results all round.

31 winning bets this week and nearly £1000 overall profit.

Apologies, I've never confirmed the updated prize structure following the adjustments to the number and size of Divisions we have.  Keeping the overall season prize at £700 I've added a 4th place payment to Divisions 1 and 2 and added a fiver on 1st and 2nd prizes in Division 1.  This reflects the fact that it takes 2 seasons hard graft to get you to the top of the top tier, allocation being based on the previous season's results.  
I'm also introducing 2 'spot' prizes for this season (as you didn't know about them!) for the player(s) with the most number of wins over the season and the player(s) with the highest odds win during the season.  These are not profit or stake related.  The idea of this is that these potentially will be different players to those in the normal prize positions at the top of the Divisions.
 
Div 1: £80, £55, £30, £20
Div 2: £60, £40, £25, £15
Div 3: £50, £35, £20
Div 4: £40, £30, £20
Div 5: £35, £25, £15
Div 6: £35, £25, £15
Most wins: £15 (or shared)
Highest odds win: £15 (or shared)

An interesting week of results to end our year and season.  All the big 3 figure gambles failed to win and we had 6 bets winning at over 20/1.   Well done to @bymatrix who found a massive 43/1 treble winner,    next best was @Craig bluenose with a 32/1 treble,    @stuboy43 @Bedlam and @Data all had the same 3 playoff draws at 30/1 and @Cuko a 20/1 treble.  
Overall we had a pretty torrid time this season, only Division 7 managed to stay in profit with the rest of the Divisions well down for the season.  203 winning bets overall is also well down on previous seasons, I think we can blame the weird Premier League for a lot of it!  So very well done to the 34 players who made a profit.
Congratulations to overall Champion @nawoo who just beat @thebestthere by a whisker, both holding their position from last week and ending with totals over £700.   @Data had the biggest win of the week and jumped up into 3rd position and @Dramfech and @Fader both move up from just outside the top 5 to take the remaining prize places with final week wins.  
@Dramfech also managed a phenominal 9 wins out of 10 with doubles and one treble, and @thebestthere made it 8 winning singles.
A few less finishers this time with quite a lot of drop outs, but happy to see several making use of the all in option especially in the final week.  We may make a few tweaks for the new year in August but everyone who completed with a bank will automatically be allocated a place based on finishing total, and I will invite all those who busted to join back in.   Enjoy the summer transfer window excitement and hopefully see you in a couple of months!

German Grand Prix starts tomororw. I've had enough of backing Clemens. Watching him on a 110 average but hitting 10% on his doubles so he's gone from the shortlist. I'll be taking 2 from the bottom half. 3 from the top.
