Saint Bernard and The Expert agree to disagree
With so many matches postponed because of frozen pitches the Expert and Saint Bernard agreed that this week's predictions would not count and they are all set for a full league and cup programme next week. Ironically, if the scores were added to this week's total it would have still been level as both of them got three out of four results right. "I think it's only fair that we lock horns next week and forget the last set of predictions," said the Expert. "Bernardo thought he was being out-smarted as he was convinced he'd won - but in the end he came to his senses and decided he'll hammer me next week. He's always good for a laugh!"

‘Saint’ Bernard bites back!
After two tense weeks things are all square in the joust for top tipster between The Expert and St Bernard Armstrong, the Goodwick United manager who says that our resident firebrand is barking up the wrong tree if he thinks he is going to win.
An ultra-confident Saint Bernard snarled,
“It’s all about doing research and although the scoring was low I kept confidence in my old pal Gary Dawes and Hakin’s win at Tenby’ turned the tide in my favour. I can go forward from this and get revenge from my two other defeats by The Expert in previous years.”
But The Expert was less than impressed at the confidence of ‘The Saint’ and said,
“He’s cocking his leg up the wrong tree here because although he got lucky last weekend because I didn’t take account of prevailing weather conditions, it will be different on Saturday, especially with his choices in the Senior Cup.
“My informant at Armstrong Castle, high on the hill overlooking Fishguard harbour, tells me that he has been full of himself this week, with long calls to Messrs Dawes, Galdo and his other so-called managerial pals. But it will make no difference, as he will find out on Saturday!
“St Bernard will definitely go home with his tail between his legs – you mark my words!”

‘Bernardino’s’ Forecasts
Division One:
Kilgetty 2 - Clarbeston Road 4
Clarbie are beginning to play well and I expect them to make itt three wins on the trot here!Narberth 2 - Hundleton 3
Both sides lost last Saturday and it should be a real battle – but I think Mark Powell’s boys will pull through.Pennar Robins 4 - Solva 1
Solva won at home last Saturday but Pennar are a strong team at Bush Camp so I’ll go for the Robins to fly here!Senior Cup – Quarter Finals
Goodwick United 2 - Tenby 1
This is going to be a really tough match for us because Tenby are a very good side. But we will be up for it and at Phoenix Park I hope we can shade the verdict.Haverfordwest County 2 - Monkton Swifts 3
I’m going for a shock result here because I think Monkton Swifts are in confident mood and might just edge it!Herbrandston 2 - Johnston 1
Another hard game to predict and it could go either way, but Modesto Galdo told me his side is at full strength so I’ll pick them.Neyland 2 - Hakin United 4
Neyland are very good at home so Hakin will need to be ready for them. But the Vikings have so many good strikers I think they will outscore the Nomads.
