Block 102 - October 2025


October 3rd to 5th - A two-nil win at home to West Ham sent Arsenal back to the top of the table. Declan Rice opened the scoring against his former side before Bukayo Saka sealed the win from the spot in the second half. A bad week ended for Liverpool with another defeat in London. Similarly to last week at Crystal Palace, they looked to have come from behind to earn a point at Chelsea before Estevao scored a winner five minutes into injury time.

Spurs are third after a two-one win at Leeds. Mohammed Kudus scored the winner in the second half after Noah Okafar had cancelled out Mathys Tel's opener. Bournemouth finished the weekend in the top four. Antoine Semenyo scored twice (that's six league goals for the season) as the Cherries beat Fulham three-one on Friday night.

Man United won at home for the third time this season - Mason Mount and Benjamin Sesko were on the scoresheet as Sunderland were beaten two-nil at Old Trafford. The noisy neighbours, Man City, also won - Erling Haaland scored the only goal as Pep Guardiola's side won at Brentford.

That was one of five games played on Sunday. Elsewhere, the new manager bounce for Ange Postecoglou didn't last long - speculation about his future as Nottingham Forest went up a notch after a two-nil defeat at Newcastle. Maybe Jim Gavin might be interested in the job? Jack Grealish scored a late winner as Everton ended Crystal Palace's long unbeaten run. Aston Villa's upturn in fortune continued with a two-one win at home to Burnley. Wolves were denied a first win of the season by Jan Paul van Hecke's late equaliser for Brighton.

Two people share the lead in the early standings for October - Brian Mullen and Richard Johnston lead the way on 62 points. Next best comes Craig Whelan on 60 points followed by six people on 57 points - full details below:

  


October 17th and 18th - Arsenal sit three points clear at the top of the table following the resumption of the Premier League after the international break. Leandro Trossard scored the winner as the Gunners won one-nil at Fulham on Saturday evening. Man City are second - Erling Haaland made it eleven league goals for the season with both goals in City's two-nil win over Everton.

Man United made it two wins for Manchester over Merseyside this weekend - they won at Anfield for the first time since 2016 on Sunday. Harry Maguire headed home a late winner after Cody Gakpo had cancelled out Bryan Mbeumo's opener. That's four defeats in a row in the league for Liverpool for the first time since 2014 and the third game in a row where they've recovered from a goal down only to concede a late winner. Bournemouth are level on points with Liverpool - they drew three-all at Crystal Palace. Jean-Philippe Mateta scored three for the home side in that one.

Another home win for Sunderland saw the Mackems climb to seventh in the table - they beat Wolves two-nil to continue their excellent return to the top division. Ange Postecoglou's short reign at Nottingham Forest came to a swift end. After just 40 days in charge, including two international breaks, he was dismissed after a three-nil defeat at home to Chelsea.

Danny Welbeck scored another two goals as Brighton beat Newcastle two-one. Burnley picked up their second win of the season - they beat fellow promoted side Leeds two-nil at Turf Moor to climb out of the bottom three.

Tommy Hamill is the new leader in the monthly competition - a score of 39 points this weekend sees him open up a three point lead over Monica Collins in second place. Four people then follow on 91 points, just five points off the lead - Aaron Nealon, Johno Percy, Lionel Knott and Sean Cleary - full details below:

  


October 24th to 26th - Arsenal's lead at the top of the table is four points after a one-nil win at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday - Eberechi Eze scored the only goal, the winner against his former club. A two-nil win at home to Nottingham Forest (managed by Sean Dyche at the time of writing) sent Bournemouth to the heady heights of second place in the table. Spurs seem to be finding some consistency under Thomas Frank - they're third in the table following a very decent three-nil win at Everton.

Liverpool seem to be losing titles quicker than Prince Andrew - the fourth league defeat in a row came at Brentford on Saturday night. Keith Andrews' side won three-two to record their fourth win of the season. Man City were another one of Arsenal's supposed title challengers to lose - Matty Cash scored the only goal as Aston Villa won one-nil at Villa Park. Chelsea slipped to ninth in the table after a two-one defeat at home to Sunderland. Chemsdine Talbi scored the winner for the Mackems in the 93rd minute at Stamford Bridge.

Man United's revival continued with a four-two win at home to Brighton. Ruben Amorin's side are now sixth in the table. Bryan Mbuemo scored twice at Old Trafford. Wolves remain without a win at the foot of table - they battled back from two down at home to Burnley to draw level but Lyle Foster scored an injury time winner for Scott Parker's side.

Leeds kicked off the weekend with a two-one win at home to West Ham. That win ensured the three promoted teams all won on the same weekend. The new boys are definitely putting on more of a fight than the teams promoted to the Premier League last season.

The timely use of a 2-1 joker scoreline helped Peter Lavelle score the 47 points to earn him top spot in the final standings for October. He had four points to spare over Monica Collins in second place. Third place was shared by four people - Brian Hearne, Christina Morgan, Gavin Goodwin, Johno Percy and Sean Cleary - full details below:
