Well, it was a close game last night but West Ham managed to haul themselves up into 4th place with a hard-fought win away at Wolves. It finished 2-3 and Lingard brought home the bacon for nearly everyone, so it's a big 7500 token jackpot share out today!
Tonight sees the return of Champions League action and Man City host Dortmund, home of Leeds wonderboy, Haaland. Can City pull off the impossible with a quadruple trophy haul?
@nathen007's Prediction
Straight up, I'm going to call City to win this, despite the best efforts of Haaland. If he scores 3, I feel Man City will score 4, their all-round team is better and stronger and with the motivation of winning 4 trophies that are now coming into touching distance, it would be a major upset if they bottled it at this stage.
Prediction: Man City 2 : 1 Dortmund - First Goalscorer: Gundogan
Simply write the name of the FIRST GOALSCORER and the CORRECT SCORE as a comment. The competition closes 5 minutes before kick-off which is 20.00 BST
The Small Print
In the first goalscorer competition, own goals do not count. In the correct score competition, it's the score after 90mins. Extra time and penalties do not count and the pot for each competition will roll over if there is no winner. If more than one person chooses the same first goalscorer or correct score, the prize is shared and everyone gets a little upvote! It seems I also need to add, one entry per person. Don't forget the new rule that only people with a rep of 45 or above are eligible to enter unless they have been approved. The bonus will be added to any winnings ONLY if Leeds United win and/or Man U lose and all payouts will never exceed 50% of post payout. Other bonuses paid out at my discretion.
The Winners were...
Well, I'm going to start out with the appearance fees today and so 500 tokens are going out to @ralph75, @hykss.sports, @chrisparis, @harpreetjanda, @guurry123 and @jersteemit.
The pot for the first goalscorer was at 7500 so that is shared between @silvergoldhunter, @zellypearl, @evegrace and @jfang003 giving them 1875+500 each. Well done ladies and gents!
So, come you lot. WHERE ARE YA ???
A huge WHERE ARE YA? goes out to @friendlymoose, @lebey1, @anderssinho (skiing again?) @monsterbuster, @corporateay, @marvinix, @pusen, @amr008.sports and all the old team...
Did I miss another one? Damn...
3-1 Raheem Sterling
You'd have lost lol ;-) but I am trying to get back into the daily routine again after skipping a bit myself.
Haha. I'm in it for the fun :D
I was thinking... shouldn't you give this contest a proper name?
Then I can make you a banner if you want.
I'd would say this will be a tough match for both Man City & Borussia Dortmund at the Ethiad
but in this circumstance I would say
Man City 1-2 Borussia Dirtmund
1st Goal: Erling Haaland
I’m a lazy forgetful man.
Need to go with my country-man and namesake Erling Braut Haaland for the first goal. Dortmund to win 3-2.
Sorry. No way you're claiming him. He was born in Leeds, therefore, he IS Leeds lol...
You know, when I used to go and watch Leeds in the 80s and 90s, there would be at least a dozen buses to every home game from Norway. After the game, they always hung out at Peter Lorimer's bar near the ground getting absolutely wasted because they could never believe how cheap the beer was compared to Norway ...happy memories!
That's amazing. The reach Leeds had back in the day is quite astounding. I have no ties to Leeds but I was really happy to see them back in the PL this season. I hope you stay up for many years. Just don't challenge Arsenal for anything.

3-0, Sterling. Hard to see City losing this.
It is mate, they've really got the bit between their teeth at the moment....but, and early Haaland goal might upset the apple cart! I'm going to stop up and watch this game, should be a good one :-)
I see 2-1 as well but with Haaland scoring first.
First goal to City, De Bruyne....anyone ?

2-2
Haaland to score first
2-1 Dortmund first scorer.
You didn't name a scorer!
Ooops that was a mistake on my part.
What I meant is Man City 2 and Dortmund 1 first scorer sterling.
I didn't realize the mistake cause of what I was doing so I probably was rushing.
Thanks for pointing that out for me
2-2 Dortmund first scorer.
You didn't name a scorer! Like the player above. Do you know @zanoz? Your comments were identical apart from the score!
3-1 Raheem Sterling
You entered after kick-off, are obviously the same person as the comment below and appear to be trying to cheat by entering with two accounts. Also, on SPS and Hive in general, its classed as abuse if you're upvoting your own comments.
Man. City 2 v 2 Dortmund
Haaland
You entered after kick off .
