    It's still Scorpion Sting with a two point lead from Sheridan81 with Trigger rallying late season back into third but has he/she left it too late?

    Time for letter Z. Who begins with Z I wonder? Remember there are still bonus and minus points on offer after the final letter but who will go into it in pole position?

    Scorpion Sting leads by two points from Sheridan81 while tusk shockingly is in possession of the wooden spoon.

    But it's not over!

    I have chosen two sports stars from a hat-one very well-known, one not so well-known generally.

    1.If you have given me the very well-known sports star you will get minus points.
    E.G. if the well-known sports star is Mickey Mouse and you have answered Mickey Mouse for M and 9 other people have given the name Mickey Mouse for M this will result in minus 10 points for all 10 who gave that answer!

    2. If you have given me the lesser-known sports star you will get double the points of the sheep score of that letter.
    E.G. if the lesser-known sports star is Mickey Mouse and you have answered Mickey Mouse for M since the sheep score for M is 14 you will get a massive 28 points!

    It is now time to reveal the lesser known sports star which will result in double Sheep points for whoever has luckily chosen said star. This could be the difference between winning and losing!

    So without further ado the not so well-known sports star is...

    Italian multi-medal winning swimming legend FEDERICA PELLEGRINI...Who no one picked so the scores stay the same. Anticlimax. :P

    But it's not over!

    Without further ado, it is time to reveal the well-known sports star who will earn you a deduction of points if you have chosen said sports star.

    I can tell you that this person could come under the letter O. So to refresh, the chosen sportsmen and women for O were:

    Brian O DRISCOLL
    9
    Green&Red
    Cathmandooo
    bubblypop
    Scorpion Sting
    Trigger
    sydthebeat
    Spook ie
    quickbeam
    Electric Nitwit

    Sonia O SULLIVAN
    7
    Homer J. Fong
    mustang shelly
    Necro
    Sheridan81
    Kolido
    Zaph
    $hifty

    Paul O CONNELL
    2
    dobman88
    conor222

    Ronnie O SULLIVAN
    2
    aaronjennings
    sKeith

    ACES
    O Shea-tusk
    M. Owen-irishejit
    J. Owens-Strawberry Milkshake


    If Brian O Driscoll is the mystery choice then Scorpion Sting will have his/her original 9 points deducted and be given minus 9 instead: a swing of 18 points which will see Sheridan81 crowned the winner!

    If Sonia O Sullivan is the mystery choice then Scorpion Sting will be crowned the winner and tusk will avoid the wooden spoon at the expense of $hifty who will have the original 7 points deducted and minus 7 given instead; a swing of 14 points.

    To simplify:

    Brian O Driscoll=Sheridan81 wins/tusk gets wooden spoon.
    Sonia O Sullivan=Scorpion Sting wins/$hifty gets wooden spoon.

    Are you following this? Good.:)

    Drum roll please animal.

    Who could have come under O with his nickname of O.J. or indeed if you're tusk and you don't care about surnames! :)

    No one picked OJ Simpson apart from irishejit under S so he/she gets a two point deduction.

    Congrats to your winner Scorpion Sting! and tusk for the wooden spoon.

    If you want your prize PM me an Irish address (not you tusk) and I'll send it to you eventually.

    Thanks everyone for playing. I didn't know it was gonna take over 5 hours but it's my first reveal so lesson learned for next time!:D
