Yes, but your success is just the latest in some kind of perfunctory meander around the intermediate reaches of the league.

My sustained success, in stark contrast, represents the fulminating meteoric assent from the depths of the lower half of the lower table. The associated impetus is with me, as you will find when you are inexorably reeled in and overhauled, resulting in the usual bitterness and self-recrimination as you must have become accustomed to by now: wallowing in the void of prediction league despair.

That makes less sense than one of Bangor's theories on moral philosophy, Saigon.

In plain English: I'm better than you.

Is it possible to get an update, so I may enjoy my wonderful point superiority over Manchester/Asps, lest they fluke some lucky predictions and claw back some ill-gotten points?

Many thanks. :D

Prediction League 1: Table 2010-2011

Sat Apr 02, 2011 5:01 pm

I notice that C (Canadian) comes before S (Stig) at the top of the table, but strangely Saigon Saddler features above King Crimson; KC; Crimson, King; or any other permutation.

Curious, that. ;)
