Tight.
Hopefully I will burn off the selection of lucky miscreants and ensconce myself firmly into the appropriate and customary position.
I have both the experience and competence to do this.
Effectively, game over. :wink:

Updated table after the weekend's games. Not amazing scoring tbh, but the winning score was 3 points, achieved by Burton Saddler, Exile, Old Penk Saddler and Me! Well done to all of us!
A little bit of movement but the bunching in the champions league places is still going on! Another chance to grab some points tomorrow evening so make sure you get in your predictions before 7.45pm - the thread is up and running.

Re: Prediction League 1: 2016-17 Intro & Latest Table
Updated table after the Tuesday games. Pretty low scoring, mainly thanks to the stuttering form of Bolton and Scunthorpe as well as a couple of postponed games but the winning score was still 4 points, achieved by Canadian saddler - well done!
There are quite a few p-p games now building up so the possibility of some much needed points could help wing people up the table over the next few weeks! Saturday's games are already up and running in the week 35 thread.

Updated table after the weekend's games. Generally poor scoring with only 5 people scoring more than 1 point! The winning score was 3 points, achieved by Welsh Saddler, Cully, Asps - well done!
There are a couple of p-p games on Tuesday night so will do another updated table after that if I get a chance.
Next Saturday's thread is already up and running

Updated table after the weekend's games. Slightly duff scoring overall but the winning score was 3 points achieved by a couple of people - Exile and Burton Saddler - well done to both!
I have also included any points scored from the postponed games that were played last Tuesday, which helped out a few people.
There is a set of fixtures for this Tuesday night so don't forget to get your predictions in before the 7.45pm kick off deadline!

Re: Prediction League 1: 2016-17 Intro & Latest Table
Got to be happy with 2nd, after clawing my way up from mid-table in a most unusual and oddball season.
Determination, skill, courage, skilfulness, valour, skilosity, gallantry, skilments and sheer blooming pluck.
These are what you need to succeed! And still not a single 4+ points week! :idea:
I don't share, so TALLY HO! :D

You've been a bang-average top five contender for the last ten rounds, so claiming that second now is some kind of massive feat is, frankly, alternative facts. :D
For the true story of a run of consistent success, look no further than my recovery from a terrible run of bad luck over the course of the season, which has culminated in my current share of second place, on the same number of points as you, having predicted three less rounds. And some weekly wins.

If you want to know about REAL consistent, solid scoring then you need look no further than the man who is 20 points c!ear! :D :wink:
Then again, I'll just let the usual noise monsters on here write post after post about how great their occasional semi respectable haul of points is while I quietly go about my business!! :mrgreen:

Hmmm, he's got a point, Tim.
:D
Although I am reasonably confident of reeling him, it might take a couple of seasons.

Updated table after Tuesday's games and some very good scoring! No blobs and the winning score was 4 points, achieved by lots of people - swampysaddler, reedswood saddler, itasaddler, Old Penk Saddler and Cully - well done to all of you!
The week's win now puts Cully into the lead of Weekly wins, with 8.
This weekend's games are already up in week 38 thread so go and get your predictions in - note the Fri eve game if you want it.

One bad week and I go from second to seventh. That's what happens when you try to buck the trend. :(

Updated table after the weekend games. Despite a couple of blobs, it was a great week of scoring with lots of 3s and a 4 although the winning score was 5 points, achieved by Welsh Saddler and itasaddler - well done to both.

Hmmm yes, has anyone, in the history of the cosmos, ever finished so far behind the winner (as you look likely to) when defending a UTS prediction league title? :mrgreen: :wink:

Re: Prediction League 1: 2016-17 Intro & Latest Table
Here is the latest table update after last weekend's games (week 39). A very low scoring week and only one score was more than a single point!
That was the winner of the week, with 3 points, Burton Saddler - well done!
With such low scoring, there hasn't been much movement in the table really, although with 6 game weeks left to go, there is still a lot to play for!

Re: Prediction League 1: 2016-17 Intro & Latest Table
Updated table again after yesterday's games. Very low scoring again due to some surprising results and the winning score was only 2 points, achieved by 5 people - reedswoodsaddler, itasaddler, The Bosted Slab, Old Penk Saddler and Exile - well done to all of you!
All that has brought together a lot of people into joint second place! There is still a lot to play for, for the top 10 over the coming weeks!
There are some games on Tuesday evening including the two p-p games that people have saved up - this could help separate a few people, so I will try and do an update on the table again after that if possible.
The games for next Saturday (week 41) will be up and running shortly
