Three's Kompany; Sad Hatters; Scabby gets; Zippedy doodah; Zippedy ay.

The Big Boy relegation spots are now all bar mathematically filled, but the third replacement team could still be one of four. Only Tichi (EOOEx) could clearly see the patterns emerging, picking up 18 points out of the thirty available. He's probably left it too late to win the overall competition, but second is a real possibility.

Belper (OxEOO), Chezzer (EOOxO) and Orgoner (OOOXx) scored 15. Glass half full. Not sure of what.

Dalek dropped another three points to Chezzer and Tichi (who now shares second place), but he still has an 18 point lead going into the final weekend so he's almost certainly golden. And I'm not talking shower.

Three failed to post, with Sniffer going dormant.

There were two draws, so Johnny_Default reaches 105 points. Any Strike One (Dek), Strike Two (Hopey) or Strike Three posters scored six, four or two for their lack of effort.

The results

(PL) Spurs v Burnley (2-1)
(PL) West Ham v Luton (3-1)
(PL) Forest v Chelsea (2-3)
(C P/O S/F L1) Norwich v Leeds (0-0)
(C P/O S/F L1) WBA v Soton (0-0)

The final fixtures (the PL Dash) are out as a separate thread.

All the best! Stay safe!

I was looking at the betting thread and it crossed my mind that, at least in football, sometimes knowing less might be more....

So, had you posted 1-0 to every listed fixture, you would currently be sitting in fourth spot in the active poster table.

(Nasty posts 2-1 for every game).

That's made you feel better, eh?!


I guess if you are an active better, perhaps a decent strategy could be to assume the game will end 1-0 and then modify according to how you rate the individual teams.

Probably a quirk of my selection process, but an away win is more likely than a draw.

That seems counterintuitive.
