The Great Predictor Thread domestic league table

All,
Well an all too common 3-0 victory prediction was graciously accomplished today by our Spurs...providing some high scores...and thereby making math hard for me. I hate you all....kidding...

**Holy shit, my counterpart Walt is killing it. And he isn't even cheating! I know because he is kicking my ass!!! (why would I allow that! Easy answer...I WOULDN'T!!!!)

High Scores:
Kiwi - 10 points for today - I laughed when I read his prediction...Kane on a hatty...comon man. I stand corrected my friend...well played.
Gary - 10 points as well - Holy shit here comes Gary all. You know he spotted us a few points then said " ok bitches, it is go time!!!" and damn near nailed it. Be scared all!

Of course there is some fun to be had at the expense of others:
80, Little Hobo, KL Spur, and Barnsley all gave up and simply didn't predict any scorers at all.
Rackny, Fevvers, Sukhothai, Xvausch, Swanky, Hod, and Jonsey all simply threw up their hands and didn't predict at all...of course all have been shamed -2 points for their efforts!

Honorable mention - SJM1985...well played...well played. Damn fine glove save owning up and figuring out you posted your prediction on the wrong thread and then correcting it. To show I do grant mercy now and then...I allowed it. (plus I was wondering if you would ever catch it! LOL)

1) Walt (you sly old bastard!!) - [18 pts]

2) Spurs 1954 - [14 pts]

3) SJM - [13 pts]

4) StevieP - [12 pts]

5) Kiwi - [11 pts]

Do I get a pass for a travel day?
 
Hi all .
it’s predictor thread league table time .
We had a fantastic 32 posts for this game . Incredible , thank you all .
Everyone predicted a win , only five didn’t think Son would score !!!
The highest score was achieved by Meee who stormed home with Four Points .

Seven didn’t post and have incurred the dreaded two point penalty.
Sadly , Top and Stu , who both posted for the first time this week , have been penalised because they haven’t posted before .
Stu is on minus eight and Top starts with minus 7………
A bit of an anomaly, but it’s designed for fairness .
Others who have been playing every week and are on two points would have been overtaken .
So

1)
21,pts ……Walt

17 pts……Spurs 54

15 pts……SJM
…………Steve P

4)

Good luck with the storm US , batten everything down . ( not sure where Swankey is ) .just hope everyone in that area is safe .

EX is two points clear of 80 !!! Now … that’s going to hurt one of them !!!!!!

I will leave this open for a day or so so you can all tell me what a great job I’ve done , or , more like it , tell me what a fuck up ive made !!!!

No f**k ups where I'm concerned Walt, well done. Trying to work out how to make up seven points on you, knowing that for as long as we keep winning you will be difficult to catch. Watch out for those minus twos though, there are a couple of difficult fixtures coming up.

You know me so well !!!!
That’s exactly what the minus twos are for , I fought long and hard against it ……… ha ha .. no I didn’t …… I think it’s a great rule , that will eventually produce the best predictor.
A brilliant idea from USAF . :tophat:

I think I may have to bite the bullet and at sometime actually predict that we won’t win !!! Goes against everything that I am though .
It will be with a heavy heart that I do that . The Chav game coming up is going to test my resolve .
Im also well pissed off that there is a break before we play the NLD, gives them time to reorganise ……

I'm still smarting for predicting Spurs not to lose against City, and still getting a two point negative!
 
Well that was utter trash...and we all learned that we pretty much ALL suck at predicting.

The ONLY two players to actually gain points this weekend were Gary & Barnsley. Hell I think the many folks that simply didn't predict has the right idea...save yourself the pain and take -2 points like the rest of us!

The team should be flogged for embarrassing us all like this!!!

I simply don't have the words...so here is the table:

1) 19pts - Walt

2) 15 pts - Spurs 54

3) 13 pts - SJM....StevieP....Gary

4) 12 pts - Kiwi....Smithy

5) 9 pts - Pompey....KL Spur....Spesh....Hobo

6) 8 pts - EX

7) 7 pts - Lijaboc

8) 6 pts - 80....Meee

9) 5 pts - USAF....Total.... Critical

10) 4 pts - Sheringham....Vinnie....Scotty....Rackney

11) 3 pts - RD....Muttley

12) 2 pts - Greavsie....Matic....Fevvers

13) 0 pts - Spurs 1882....Sukhothai

14) -1 pts - Rambro

15) -2 pts - Phil....SpursEagle

16) -4 pts - Barnsley

17) -7 pts - Xvausch....Swankey

18) -8 pts - Hod

19) -9 pts - Top

20) -10 pts - Stu

21) -12 pts - Jonesy
 
Ok all...well that SUCKED. Not much to say, but we are in a really bad way....the only positive...it makes predicting that we will suck easier!

We had a lot of big movers today...special shout out to Barnsley for jumping above zero with his correct prediction!

1) 17 pts -- Walt

2) 15 -- Stevie P

3) 14 pts -- Kiwi

4) 13 pts -- USAF, Spurs54, Critical

5) 12 pts -- Vinnie

Latest league table .
Wolves 2-2, Spurs 2
We won 5-4 ( 3-2 on pens , )
Scorers Kate , Ndom, (Kate, Gil and Reg , pens )

Strange weekday match .
In future , if you change or add scores or scorers , can you please post that as a reply to your original prediction . It saves me having to trawl back through the posts to find it ,

it didn’t make any difference last
night , but I didn’t notice 1882 had altered his prediction and I had to trawl through to find Pompey s scorers . No big deal …..just makes my life a bit easier ….. Nick would know all about that !
Critical forecast a draw , I missed that one , sorry mate . The score had to stand .
No scorers from Steve P or Barnsley , others named scorers that weren’t in the squad .
A couple were too late to post , I will see if we can give you more time in future , …. 80 , can you stick the match prediction thread up a MONTH before the date of the game please ,
clearly a week is not enough!!!!
Great scores from Gary (11points to take the lead )
1882 ( 8 points ) and Total (9 points ) well done to you all .
Gary back on top after a slow start to the season , I can only imagine he had a late holiday and didn’t get back on time ….. . Back in his rightful place again .
So ,,, here we go
22 Gary
20 Walt
17 Kiwi , 54
16 1882 , Total

Thanks for taking part , Have a good rest of the week , it’s the NLD on Sunday , the prem have given them enough time to sort their shit out so it should be a good game .

Well that sucked...again...for the third straight PL week! Not much to say, but I will say the RD was biggest mover with Vinnie right behind him! Well done lads choosing correctly that we do in fact suck.

I was a dipshit and reversed my prediction at the last second. UGHHHHH.
