Bristolatic Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Following his promotion at the end of last season, Hometownclub goes top of the Premier League, cutting short DavidCollinge's reign in pole position to one week. SAV, astottie and rosa were top scorers. There were no changes from 12th down, so the relegation battle is hotting up. Two players failed to predict. In the Championship, there is also a new leader as milnrow latics climbs two places. Early season runner, singe, is stuck in 4th, while yarddog73 slides perilously close to the relegation trapdoor. josh_latics lost out on two potential points by failing to predict a half time score. Unless there are some upturns in form, there'll be some well known names in League 1 next season. 11 players did not make a prediction. Premier League Championship A reminder how the promotion and relegation will work next season, provided we get enough contributors again so we can introduce League 1.

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 It’s been a very tough watch this season. One veers from hysterical laughter to bleak depression at the amateurishness of it all. Still, Dave Collinge will win it - possibly with a record low point score - which would be a nice ending to a great career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly trying, although I can see this going right down to the wire. I was looking to just consolidate this season, given my Championship budget compared to the big hitters.

If I could pick one reason why this season has been so poor in quality, it’d be that people no longer see the game for what it is and just desperately need a sense of perspective.

lookersstandandy Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 In addition, the number of Predictors surpassing 100 points - regardless of division - in a season is; 2011/12 - 1 2012/13 - 7 2013/14 - 19 2014/15 - 19 2015/16 - 27 2016/17 - 31 2017/18 [so far] - 22 with 8 games to go....... ....I'd say the quality has improved markedly from the amateur days when you used to be any good.....!

Okay Poindexter. How about you normalise attendance points to 2012/13 values? What happens then? Also, we know that it was possible to exchange money for points from 2014/15, which was when the game really lost its way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24hoursfromtulsehill Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I've said under oath that it was Zorrro who shoved the sandpaper down my kecks. You can't really argue with the 176 from 15/16. They still talk about the 27 points I got from guessing Latics first scorer. We only scored nine goals all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's your overall record that suggests the reason you refuse to put you dummy back in..... is because you're not confident you can repeat it. I mean, you were woeful in 14/15.

No one but me and Dave Collinge has done that. What've you ever won? Fuck all I'll bet. I am a legend of predicting and you're a trophyless cunt.

What've you ever won? Fuck all I'll bet. I am a legend of predicting and you're a trophyless cunt. It's been so peaceful on here recently and I couldn't quite work out why. Now I know. It's because a certain non-entity has been absent, but has decided to join in again making pointless comments about a competition that he is too scared to re-enter. I'll lay a bet he isn't brave enough to enter next season; starting in League 1, of course. So sad, really. He was such a nice boy until he got caught doing unmentionable things to Zorrro to inveigle him into his den of iniquity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
