A European final . Brief scare in the first half, but 3 goals in 10 second half minutes saw us clinch a final place in Amsterdam and a chance to join the elite group of clubs who have who have won the Champions League, Cup Winners Cup and Europa League/UEFA Cup.
We had a correct first Goalscorer for the first six games, so well done to Fat Ron's Donuts who correctly predicted that Salah would notch first.
3-1 home win was a popular score so well done to Obers, Randomer, chelseabluealley, John Mikel Obi-Wan Kenobi , Don Mata, TCW, White Wall and leader CFC 1L1L1C who all got 8 points to help their late surges up the table.
Next up it is the trip to Old Trafford to face the champions Manchester United (Sunday 5th May 2013 - KO 16.00).

The table is now locked down so no new predictors (or ones that have been relegated) will go back on the board. You are very welcome to still have a stab at predicting though.
