We had whittled our way down to the final 6 after only 3 weeks so we are getting close to the end of the 2023 Last Man Standing. It was a funny week with quiet a few draws. Nobody had selected Liverpool or Everton for Monday night so the results can be published tonight. @ablaze picked his own team this week along with @ga38jem. The thing I have learnt about Arsenal over the years is that they will always leave you down. Even if they have lost only 2 this year. They slipped up again against Brentford and could only get the draw which means you two are eliminated.
@amirtheawesome1 and @shamzy picked Newcastle. Amir had chosed Fulham and changed his mind which will eat at him for a while. I was the one who planted the seed saying Nottingham Forest were on a win streak so he changed to Newcastle. Fulham ended up beating Forest at the end. Oopsy. @shamzy had Newcastle selected also but their recent form has not been the best after the World Cup.

So with Arsenal and Newcastle slipping up , we had two more matches to go. @tengolotodo had Man City in the 4pm game while @hamza-art selected Man United. Sunday was a luckier day for our contestants and both won their games so we have a final on our hands next week between
Prizes
1st - 30 Hive Basic Income for the winner.
2nd - 10 HBI
3rd - 5 HBI
Now because we are down to final two, I still have to give 3rd prize out. 4 contestants finished 3rd so in order to be fair I have awarded 5 HBI to the 4 contestants. I am doing it like the golf does it. There can be more than 1 person finishing in a position. Jesus good job there wasn't 35 knocked out last week.
@amirtheawesome1
@ablaze
@ga38jem
@shamzy
Thanks for taking part guys. I really appreciate it.
The Final Two
So we are down to the final two. Who will they select.
@tengolotodo has selected Everton ,Villa ,Man United, Man City already.
@hamza-art has selected Newcastle, Arsenal, Brighton, Man United
This is an interesting one because during the final most contestants normally have selected the same teams and the final could go a few weeks but these two have only both selected Man United which will lead to a good final. Best of luck to you too. I need the selection in before Saturday at 12.30 GMT.
Fixture list is below.If @tengolotodo fails to select a team, they get autoselected Arsenal.
If @hamza-art fails to select a team , they get autoselected Aston Villa as they have selected Arsenal already.
Fixture List Week 5
Congratulations to our final two. We might have a winner by next Sunday.

Chelsea are due a win, however will Southampton do an Everton...
Chelsea for me please Blanchy!
Good luck @hamza-art
Chelsea it is @tengolotodo . Best of luck. Congrats for getting to the final.
Thanks Paul!
Thanks💯, and good luck for you too
Well done @tengolotodo and @hamza-art on surviving an absolute minefield of a week! VAR has a lot to answer for in Arsenal and Newcastle matches, that's the kind of shit that can decide who does and doesn't win a league and who doea and doesn't qualify for a Champions league.
@blanchy that's pure generous to give all four of us 5HBI 👏👏👏
Some man for one man, class act..
Mental games and I can't believe how people kept falling by the wayside!
Chelsea a good shout for this week,although they wouldn't exactly fill you with confidence these days, but looking at the fixtures and the teams you have, its a good shout. If I was still in, I'd have gone with Brentford
I was waiting for final to chose man city😃@blanchy im am with man city🏟️
Ah nice Idea @hamza-art has gone for Man City and @tengolotodo has gone for Chelsea to beat Southampton
hehe I went for Chelsea to beat Southampton 🙃
Sorry for the typo . Chelsea to beat southampton . Yes
Should have stuck with your typo,and that summed up the epl this season!
Thanks @blanchy I really do appreciate. So I won’t be picking a team for next week matches 😔.
Unfortunately not @shamzy. Your journey has ended with us.
Thank you very much! Did not think I would be able to get third place. And you are right, if it matters Arsenal let's you down, I need to have this in the bacvk of my head :D
Thank you again for organizing! :)
Never trust Arsenal (or one of their supporters)
Added to the blackbook
Thx🥰💯 there something in my luck here😅. I did not watch the match and dont know much about football, i joined this contest for fun with my brother @saif-ul-wahab and hopefully im in final😀. @blanchy this contest was amaizing and exiting.
That's the great thing about this contest @hamza-art , you don't have to be an expert. Just pick a team and cross your fingers because it is all luck in the end. Well done.. Delighted you got there. I hope @saif-ul-wahab gives you a helping hand in your final pick.
