Well this was a strange week where good ball playing was a rarity with most players missing them completely!! Everyone who played the Gamball got it wrong and only two players scored points on the bonus and only three on the scoreball. We also saw the first minimum score of the season!!
Sanjay sits at the top this week with a fine 18 points courtesy of 3 CSs including the Bonus ball and he scored on 6 games in total. Joint second went to our alphabetical pair - AAA and BBB with 12 points. AAA got no CS which even though he scored a CR on the bonus kept him from a big week, whereas BBB got 3 CSs but missed on all his balls to keep his score down.
Amelia comes in 4th place on 9 points. Like a lot of others she scored well, getting points on 5 games but like everyone else she missed on the Gamball and the Bonus. She did get the scoreball which kept her one point above Derby in 5th, who scored on 6 games but those balls are important for a reason. Themaclad is in 6th spot on 6 points, not a great return for scoring on half of the games, as did Twerton who ended with only 4 points in 7th spot.
Our reigning champion Bomber continues with his struggles, picking up only 2 points in 8th place, but that was two points better than SCO in 9th spot whose good start came to a crashing halt with a big fat zero!! Lord Snooty also saw his good start to the season falter when he managed to get every prediction incorrect and picked up a minimum score of -6!!!!
In the table that Bomber will confirm, BBB rises to the top, pushing SCO into 2nd spot. Sanjay’s good week will see him rise into the top 3. Twerton and Bomber will be filling the relegation sports after poor weeks again.
Cheers

I generally enjoy spending a few minutes on a sunny Sunday afternoon writing up this rubbish but just occasionally it becomes an especially enjoyable week - guess which one this is?
A wide spread of scores this week and for once the gamball scorers don't feature at the top of the table. Obviously Albion's result wasn't predicted by anybody (even at half time I'd probably have stayed with an away win) and 5 of you also blew your bonus balls in this game. Our friendly neighbours no-show at West Ham also hurt, producing a second negative scoring match.
This week's high flyer is OneTrueBaggie (apart from his failure to play the gamball on the correct match!!!!) with 7 correct predictions including 1 correct score. He also scored on his bonus and scoreball to give him a 2 point lead over Stairs in 2nd place. Stairs was the only player to get 2 correct scores and, like 1TB, didn't play the gamball. Unfortunately in Stairs' case it cost him 6 points as the Preston - Stoke game was one of his correct scores! Joker also got the gambal lmatch score correct but in his case he was brave enough to play it, though by missing out on his other balls the 10point game was only good enough to give him 3rd place.
Zinman and Somerset continued their consistent starts to the season, now the only 2 participants to have reached double figures in all 3weeks. Zin only got 4 correct results but was helped by his 1 correct score being the bonus. Both chose not to play the gamball, wisely in Zin's case but costing Somerset 3 important points - will he continue his non gambling policy? DD was the second person to gain points on the gamball but this only helped him to 6th place in the table. BaggieOne got 6 predictions correct but unfortunately for him they didn't include either of his balls and had to settle for 8 points where he ties with Minizin, another one grateful for wimping out on his gamball. Silver's 6 points at least represents an improvement on his previous weeks' showings but won't help to lift him up the overall table and Lady Jane's dreadful start to the season continued with just 2 points.
Have I missed anyone? Oh, yes, Beefy, how could I forget. I can safely say that the cream he was on about has well and truly curdled as Beefy becomes the first Championship player this season to register a negative score. A truly awful just 1 correct prediction with negatives on both his balls though he did at least have the consolation of a scoreball point as he returned to the form of last season.
Beefy's momentous week means changes to the overall table where he has disappeared from the leaderboard. 1TB's great week takes him to the top with Zinman remaining in 2nd. The chasing pack has tightened up but Silver and Lady Jane are already falling some way behind at the foot of the table.
On to next week - and 1TB - get your gamball on the right game!!

RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Stairs - 29-09-2020
I am determined to stick to my guns and not use the Gamball as it cost me dearly last season - so ironic that so far I have (I think) got all 3 Gamball match predictions correct!
It won't last and so I am just staying Gamball free
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Beefy 1965 - 29-09-2020
Might do the fixtures later if I remember
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - silverbaggie - 29-09-2020
Sorry to be a pain in the neck guys but:-
I quote "Silver's 6 points at least represents an improvement on his previous weeks' showings."
Oh no it doesn't!!
My score for week 2 was also recorded as 6 points. A 'feat' I repeated again in this week (ie week 3).
It's been a long long time since I was at school but, 6 + 6 don't equal 10.
I'm having enough trouble with my balls as it is....... please don't make it even harder.
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Zinman - 29-09-2020
Silver, you scored 4 points last week (see the results thread below) so .......
You have at least improved every week, unlike some!

I'm only going by the league table quoted for week 2as:-
Zin
Beefy 33pts
Zinman 28
Minizin 26
Onetrue 25
Somerset 24
Joker 21
Stairs 17
DD 10
BaggieOne 8
Lady Jane 6
Silver 6
Don't wish to be contentious but this was week 2's league table.
So, unless this was altered down at some later stage I am still showing as having got 6 points.
Oh dear I am beginning to regret joining.
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - St Charles Owl - 29-09-2020
Silver, your maths is not wrong and you are not going crazy, but last week's table was incorrect in having you on 6 points, it should have been 4!! This week you scored 6 points to add to those 4 points, leaving you with 10 points in total.
The committee would like to apologize to you for this mistake, we held a short meeting to apportion blame and I can confirm we have chosen Beefy to take all the blame for this error!!
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Beefy 1965 - 29-09-2020
Well things couldn't get any worse could they,
Wait Joker hasn't turned up yet, Bomber hasn't made any snide comments,
However my laptop's just caught on fire
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Zinman - 29-09-2020
I’d prefer if you didn’t mention fire - rather a sensitive subject over here at the moment.
RE: Prediction League Scores/Tables Week 3 - Beefy 1965 - 29-09-2020
Silver seriously these mistakes hardly ever happen
As SCO was on holiday i was drafted in and fucked up,
I don't usually do the scoring as I usually xxxx up ....
......
See a trend here
These were altered later I hope for the sake of two points you don't really feel this way !!
