Prediction League Week 4 Results
#1
Group A

BaggieOne 21
Stairs 14
Minizin 12
A.A.A. 6
B.B.B. 5
Zinman 4
Twerton 2
BaggieVicar 0

For the second week in a row we have a results table that is split into two distinct halves. The Gamball turned out ok for most with 12 points being scored on that but the rest of the balls saw very few positive scores. The Oxford v Coventry game produced a seasons low score with -11 points due to 4 incorrect Bonus balls but this was offset by 3 other games scoring double figures.

Easily leading the way this week is league leader BaggieOne with a very good 21 point haul. He scored 2 CSs including the Bonus and 4 CRs including the Gamball as well as the added point from the Scoreball. In 2nd spot is Stairs on 14 points, he scored on the same number of games as BaggieOne but missed on his Bonus causing the difference. Third was Minizin with 12 points, the last one to score double figures this week. He managed 2 CSs but missed on the Gamball.

Big drop to the rest!! AAA with 6 points and BBB with 5 points at least managed to get a CR on the Gamball but little else. Whereas Zinman, 4 points, Twerton, 2 points and BaggieVicar, 0 points, missed on all their balls and backed that up with very little else!!

61 BaggieOne
52 Stairs
42 Minizin
37 Twerton
36 A.A.A.
36 B.B.B.
30 BaggieVicar
13 Zinman


Some gaps now appearing in the table. BaggieOne has a nice 9 point lead over Stairs, who in turn is 10 points ahead of Minizin in 3rd. Interestingly Minizin is the most consistent player so far with only 2 points separating his highest and lowest scores for the first 4 weeks. Twerton drops to 4th, just a point ahead of the alphabet boys. Bit of a gap to BaggieVicar in 7th and then the 17 point chasm down to Zinman in last place. He is now 48 points off top place, so it looks like at best the Playoffs for him!! Laugh

Cheers

Group B

SCO 9
4eva 9
Themaclad 8
Derby 7
Lady Jane 6
Salop 6
Snooty 5
Amelia 5

A very tight week for Group B with just 4 points separating all players. The Gamball proved fruitful, 6 players gaining points from it, while Sheffield Wednesday's demise (sorry, SCO) was correctly predicted by all but one player and yielded 21 points. Four fixtures proved to be less predictable, with the results at Sunderland, Stoke Blackburn and Oxford all generating negative returns thanks to a number of blown bonus balls. For the 2nd consecutive week, nobody reached double figures.

SCO and4eva share top spot with 9 points made up the same way - 5 correct results including the gamball but no correct scores and misses on both the bonus and score balls. Themaclad sits just a point behind with 3 correct results, one correct score, a gamball and scoreball point. Derby nearly matched Themac but missed out on the scoreball. Lady Jane and Salop are together with 6 points - Lady J scored on more games, 4, but failed with all her balls while Salop had 3 correct results, no correct scores but did get his gamball correct.

Snooty was the only player to get his bonus correct - and he scored a maximum 6 points from it! Unfortunately that was all he got right so shares bottom spot with our late arrival, Amelia who scored on 3 games including her gamball. So she's nearly level with me!

44 Themaclad
35 4eva
34 SCO
26 Lady Jane
25 Derby
13 Snooty
10 Salop
5 Amelia


Unsurprisingly no positional changes this week. Themaclad still enjoys a healthy lead with gaps beginning to open up between 3rd and 4th, and 5th to 6th. Slow starts for Snooty, Salop and, obviously Amelia, but it's still very early (as I keep telling myself).

Enjoy the international break and I'll post the next fixtures towards the end of the week.

Well, a better result than last week, still out of touch with the squads and forms of teams, so flying blind when predicting and the mix mash of points received would back that up.
Good luck to everyone, except Themaclad (top of the league and all that), no really I include you as well. Good luck to everyone for the rest of the season. Especially Amelia, as she is playing catch up, missing the first three weeks.

Great write ups and a big big thank you for taking the time and effort to run this league, collating the scores and giving your enjoyable feedback on the performances.

Ah thank you.

I think I need to increase the sarcasm content, though that may be slightly hypocritical given my flying start to the season.
They say that ignorance is bliss - no wonder so many people are happy.
