Prediction League 2023-2024

[Brin]

Well two things for starters, we didn't lose yesterday and the scoring this time was a lot better! Let's see what happened......


No shows: x 1 Ackworth Miller, with us not playing he may well have forgot to post. He normally is the last to post.

Weekly winner(s): As mentioned already, much better than last week with ten of you hitting double figures. CTMilller, Cayton, HK Miller, MillersTale and LeedsMiller set the ball rolling with a score of 10 normal points. Next to up the ante was Harpo88 and Clarkey with 11 points but the last three all pipped their score by registering 12 points each. Well done to Adventus, Grist and Glenn Miller who last week picked up a spoon but this time goes on to pick up the bonus and score 17 points overall.

Predict a Score: No winners as this finished Barnet 6 v 0 Dorking Wanderers. Had that 'Brunt' not scored in the 91st minute I would have been the sole winner being the closest with 5 v 0, alas it rolls over to next weekend as a double up.

Jokers played: One. Millersrus played his doubling his score of 5 up to 10 points.

Wooden Spoon(s): I thought ELK had won it but thankfully he didn't as Avondale came in with a score of only 2 points so, it's all yours my friend.

A shout out to CTMilller and myself as we become the first to break through the 300 points barrier! This also means there is a change at the top as CTMilller oinks me off the velvet cushion to rightfully take the seat. The smallest of margins between us but he still has his powerful Joker to play, well done Sir!

With Nez's continued absence, Millersrus now claims third spot by playing his Joker. Adventus along with LeedsMiller are both snapping at his heels though.

There are still eight more of you to play your Joker as the season end approaches so don't forget to play them

*** AMENDED TABLE DUE TO MILLERSRUS INFORMING ME HE HAD PLAYED HIS JOKER ***

Hi Brin
I did request my joker to be played yesterday my mediocre 5 should be 10. Wish I hadn’t.

Apologies for that pal I didn't see it. That's why I always ask for any Joker being played to be highlighted either in bold or larger text so I can easily spot it.

I've now amended the table to show you did play your Joker and this now puts you in third spot but with a couple right on your tail. Not a bad position to be in seeing how the League will soon be coming to a close.

There's a phrase in English football very well known throughout the world and it's not ''Agueroooooooooooooooooooo!''
It's actually, ''Some People are on the Pitch...they think it's all over''...well after this weekend in the PL it nearly is now but, before I explain more let's mull over what happened yesterday.

No shows: x1 HK Miller. Very surprised to see this as he is riding so high in the league. Trust all is well and this was just an oversight.

Weekly winner(s): I think my opening indicated to something special and boy is it special to one contributor to the PL. It was a great weekend with 7 of you hitting double normal digits, so lets see who scored what. Kicking things off was Adventus with his 10 points. Then it was the turn of Avondale and Millersrus with 11 points. It was then ThaiMiller's turn to have a go with his 12 points but alas it just felt short of being the winner. The extra 5 bonus points this time go to none other than MillersTale, Cayton and.......drum roll.....CT Milller as they all score 13 points. Excellent scores gentleman, very well done indeed.

Predict a Score: A whopping 9 of you all claim 4 points as this was a rollover. The final score was Rangers 3 v 1 Hibernian. Step forward in no particular order, Clarkey, ELK, Ronners, Cayton, LeedsMiller, Grist, Avondale, MillersTale (doubling up) and Ackworthmiller. Well done to you all.

Wooden Spoon(s): Sorry Bramley it's all yours with a score of 3 points. Better look next week pal.

Jokers played: One. None. Only a few weekends left so use em or lose em.

It simply as to be a big shout out, once again, to CTMilller. If you are looking to wrap up a PL as Champion then his timing has been impeccable this season. Slowly, like a lizard hunting its prey with a slivery tongue he has successfully hunted down this pack and worked his way through us all. His score yesterday has propelled him to a clear way out, as the Shrangri -Las would say, 'Leader of the pack'. Excellent scoring Sir indeed, I doff my cap to you.

I trail in a now impossible second place as I've played my Joker and CT Milller as yet to play his! Third is Millersrus.

NB. I know Cayton will be creaming himself over his latest score so let him 'bask in the sunshine' as he steams ahead of CAM in their personal duel this season. A final mention to Millersrus for breaking though the 300 barrier, well done fella.

[Ronners]

Brin, you have me down for 5 points but I make it I should have 7? would you check please.

[HK_Miller]

Looks like I didn't press the Post Quick Reply button. Sigh ....

[caytonmiller]

Mind the GP cam. 😁😉.
I'm coming for you brin

[CTMilller]

I’ve been called a few things before, Brin, but never a ‘lizard with a slivery tongue’!

Fat ladies and operas, mate, it aint over yet. Just a couple of good results from you and/or one of the Lincoln City’s coming up and it will all change. (Mind you, I wish I’d played my joker today. Also that Toney (for Brentford) and Gordon (for Newcastle) hadn’t scored in the dying embers of their games. I’d have been 5 more points to the good!)

I’m just at Donnington Services and I’ll see you at the NYT around 2.00pm.

.....I couldn't think of anything else at the time other than a sly lizard picking off it's prey. Yes see you at the NYT about 2.

Apologies pal I only gave you 2 bonus points instead of 4. I've amended your score for you and updated the table accordingly.
