March 1st - Two entertaining games kicked off the March competition. Goalkeeping errors had Roy Keane fuming in his pundit role at Goodison Park. Firstly, David de Gea launched a clearance against Dominic Calvert-Lewin to give Everton the lead. Then Jordan Pickford didn't cover himself in glory either, allowing Bruno Fernandes to equalise for the visitors. The game ended in controversy as VAR ruled out what would have been a late winner from Calvert-Lewin in injury time. Carlo Ancelotti then got sent off for his troubles.... Wolves twice came from behind to win three-two at Spurs. Steven Bergwijn and Serge Aurier had the hosts ahead twice either side of a Matt Doherty equaliser. However, second half goals from Diogo Jota and Raul Jiminez saw Wolves travel home with the three points and climb to sixth in the table, just three points behind fourth placed Chelsea. Joe Behan and Liam Geraghty were the two people to pick up fifteen points from those two games. A host of people are five points behind on ten - full details below: |

March 7th and 8th - Liverpool recovered from recent wobbles to go 25 points clear at the top of the table. Callum Wilson fired the Cherries ahead but goals from Mo Salah and Sadio Mane sent a nervy Anfield faithful home knowing they're just 9 points away from their first league title. Salah made it twenty goals in all competitions for the third consecutive season since Michael Owen.... And 9 became 6 on Sunday afternoon as United got the better of City in the Manchester Derby. Antony Martial scored the opener in the first half and Scott McTominay added the second in injury time with the assist from Ederson. That win, cheered as louldy in Liverpool as in the Red half of Manchester, leaves United in fifth place and still in with a great shot of a champions league place. The battle for fourth spot tightened up on Saturday afternoon. Billy Sharp scored the only goal at Bramall Lane as Sheffield United moved to within two points of Chelsea. Wolves will consider a nil-all draw at home to Brighton as two points dropped. Chelsea put four past Everton on Sunday afternoon to get their champions league challenge back on track. Goals from Mason Mount, Pedro, Willian and Olivier Giroud ensured an unhappy return to Stamford Bridge for Carlo Ancelotti. Tottenham continue to flatter to deceive under Jose Mourinho. They needed a second half penalty from Dele Alli to earn a point at Turf Moor. Chris Wood had Burnley in the lead in the first half in that game. Arsenal picked up a badly needed three points at home to West Ham - Alexandre Lacazette scored twelve minutes from time at the Emirates. Newcastle picked up a big three points at Southampton. Allan Saint-Maximin scored the winner for Steve Bruce's side after Moussa Djenepo had been sent off for the Saints. Crystal Palace look safe after they moved on to 39 points after a one-nil win at home to Watford. Aidan White leads the March competition with a score of fifty points so far. He's one point clear of Bobby Hynes and Trevor Byrne. Jonathan Fox and Kris Stainton complete the top five so far - full details below: |

March 9th - Leicester's four-nil win at home to Aston Villa brought the monthly competition to a premature end. When the Foxes moved eight points clear of fifth spot, we scarcely believed it would be our last football for three months. As most people predicted a home win, Aidan White held on to win the March competition by a point - full details below: |
