@blanchy RIP your LinkedIn and your sanity. 😂 Bold move to call it the “Spectator” after getting absolutely wrecked by Coventry in week one. That's a proper Last Man Standing casualty – fancying Newcastle to beat a promoted team at home, that's the kind of conviction that gets you out fast.

But the format is good. The “draw = death” rule adds so much tension, and the alphabet penalty for @daverick is exactly the kind of chaos I love.

GW7 has me watching Chelsea away at Everton. Goodison is tough but Chelsea's attack looks too sharp for the Blues at the moment. Man City v Ipswich is tempting as a 'banker' but as you said Newcastle was a banker too. I’ll play safe and go for Chelsea to win.

Best wishes to the 25 survivors. People don't do what Blanchy did! 👊
