Prediction League table for 2020-2021 season

[Brin]

Snow, covid and the only piece of frozen grass in Rotherham, South Yorkshire saw games cancelled again. We lost two out of our ten predictions but, we still had a very high % of entries, thanks and well done to those who predicted.

Those looking to post late once again, hoping to have a low scoring tally, missed out big time as many players had their shooting boots on. A magical number of 27 goals were amassed from the 8 games, with Hudson-Odoi scoring the last goal in the 93 minute for Chelsea against Man city, god bless you child

That goal afforded me to pick up the 10 bonus points as I predicted 27 goals would be scored. I think that's 3 times now and without them I would be very average to mid table.

Frogmiller found himself engrossed with female company and forgot to post and only managed to claim 1 point with a late entry off the Man City victory today so, he loses his top slot to myself. New Year, new leader but, how long will that last?

The shout outs: Have to mention Caytonmiller as he got 7/8 predictions correctly and that was a valiant effort scoring 9 points.

rileyv.the.third thought he'd try a fast one and posted 11 predictions but this was spotted so, in the spirit of goodwill, I accepted his entry and only took his first 10 which included the 2 void games. He got the first 5 correct and looking at the rest of his predictions, he would have bagged more points but, the unintentional mistake was made and that cost him. Please check carefully before submitting chaps.

Goal Bonus: As mentioned, just myself with 27 goals.

Wooden Spoon holders: I was almost going to be sharing it with Ackworth but was saved by the bonus. The actual winner of this much acclaimed prize though goes to FrogMiller with his 1 point effort. I think Cayton is fed up of these now

No shows: Clarkey1974, Pocket, BOTN, Wendun and ADVENTUS2012. Come on chaps where are you? Get back onboard there's plenty of time left yet to make an impression.

Quick reminder of the rules before we started all of this:


The New Prediction League 2020/2021 season - rules and regs.

Here are the basic rules and scoring methods if you wish to enter.
The competition is open to anyone with a maximum of 30 participants permitted. It's free to enter once the fixtures have been posted so, why not have a go and pit your skill, judgement and luck to be crowned Champion Predictor.

Predictions

1. You will have to pick 10/10 and not 5 from 10 fixtures like last season. This will hopefully see a few break away leaders from the off.

2. You may choose up to a maximum of 5 games to be draws out of the 10 fixtures you have to place.

2. The fixtures will come from all four English divisions.

3. Midweek, FA Cup and EFL cup games may also form part of the fixtures.

4. The 'total goal tally' will remain but with a new added bonus.

The Scoring of Points:

1. Every fixture you get correct is 1 point, unless you choose a fixture to be a draw, then you will receive 3 points for that.

2. Get all 10/10 straight fixtures correct and you will gain a further 20 points = 30 points in total. If you have predicted any draws in your 10 fixtures, this may add up to, a further maximum 10 points to your score making it 40 points in total.
Examples: 5 wins and 5 draws = 20 points + an extra 20 points = 40 points in total. 8 wins and 2 draws = 14 points + an extra 20 points = 34 points. This is a big bonus but is also very hard to predict so, I feel this bonus is warranted.

3. 'Total goal tally' - get the total number of goals scored correct, from all 10 fixtures, and you will receive 10 points.
Considering I will be mixing the fixtures from all 4 divisions, it will make it extremely hard to get this correct on many occasions. It is harder to get 10/10 rather than just picking a random number for the total number of goals scored and getting it right but, I am trying to incentivise the bonuses from all angles, in order to split players scorings so we are not all clumped together. We will all have the chance to win these bonus points, so it's a fair playing field.

4. Get all 10/10 AND the total goals scored correct and you will win a whopping straight 50 points!
This may increase up to 60 points if you have included any draws in your predictions. This I feel may never be achieved throughout the season hence the massive reward.

[Brin]

Yes!!!! The magic 10/10 has been won for the first time this season.

The FA Cup always springs upon us results we never expect, such is its magic. There were some very good efforts and scores achieved, with several more being oh so close to grabbing big points, great efforts all round.

Pleasing to see that all 10 games went ahead or this amazing feat may not have happened. There's been movement at the top as yours truly actually had an average score so, step forward FrogMiller as he takes the crown back but, for how long? Well done......ribbit.

The Shout outs:
A superb effort was predicted by none other than Grist to the Mill, take a bow Sir on your great accomplishment. Not only does he get his 10 points for his predicted 10/10 but also collects the added bonus of another 20 points. Being one of the last current members to join, he has been playing catch up but, he's stuck it out and now has the just rewards for his efforts. This has now propelled him way up the table to over 100 points.

To push home even more of his effort, had there been one more goal in normal playing time, he would have also bagged the goal tally. This would have given him an instant 50 points! What a gigantic and excellent effort Grist, very well done indeed.

Another shout out has to go out to CAMiller. He was only 1 prediction away from achieving 10/10 and he got the goal tally correct!
Some very close margins indeed from Grist and CAM.

A final shout to Millersrus, as he left Wycombe and Preston to draw so, sorry pal that was voided.

Goal Bonus: Correctly predicting 25 goals would be scored inside normal playing time were, Rileyv.the.third and CAMiller, well done chaps.

Wooden Spoon holders: I almost copped for it but step forward Ericsladfromkilnhurst, Nardendee and pip_y. One each lads for your score of 4 points.

No shows: Roly, Clarkey1974, Pocket, BOTN and Wendun. Think I'll start and leave this off going forward.

Now looking very tight at the top.

Excellent! Well done Grist. Has anyone worked out what the odds were on that

[Brin]

Excellent! Well done Grist. Has anyone worked out what the odds were on that

With Wycombe beating Preston and Luton beating Reading he'd got to be looking at 100's for all 10 to come in. Weds and Blades both winning would have been a good factor into it also.
