[Zinman]

apologies as this gets a bit messy trying to find 10 remaining fixtures. I've added the play-off finals but the actual teams won't be known until later this week so feel free to send in your predictions in 2 parts, SCO won't mind! Also, I've added 2 tiebreak questions in case of a draw (clutching at strawsa fter the first leg!). the tiebreak will be used if either of the games are tied after the 2 legs - the second question will only come into play if the first one doesn't produce a winner (and if we're still tied after 2 questions I will admit defeat).

Gamball:
Liverpool - Real Madrid

Others:
Sunderland - Wycombe
Arsenal - Everton
Brentford - Leeds
Brighton - West Ham
Burnley - Newcastle
Crystal Palace - Man Utd
Norwich - Spurs
Huddersfield - Forest/Sheff Utd
Mansfield/Northampton - Swindon/Port Vale

Usual rules re score after extra time.

Tiebreak 1. Minute of the first goal in the Liverpool - Real Madrid game.
Tiebreak 2. Number of corners in the Liverpool - Real Madrid game.

So after the first batch of games its still very tight in both ties.

Total Scores to date:

Playoff Final

BBB 14 v 15 Zinman

Completely different predictions by these two in the remaining games means this one could still go either way!! We could also still need to use the tie breaker to split these two.


Cup Final

Sanjay 20 v 15 Zinman

This one will be decided on the Gamball where depending on the result we could see a huge swing either way. If Liverpool win, then Sanjay takes the cup home, if Real win then it will sit on Zinman's mantlepiece for the next year!!

Having seen St Charles had credited me with 14pts and I thought i had 18pts, i looked at the results against by book entries, and whereas I predicted Port vale 1-0 winners, I'd written down them playing away and a 0-1, and of course they were playing at home so 1-0. Stupid huh, and it cost me 4pts.
So all to play for on the game ball and Huddersfield seeing Zinman has predicted the opposite to me. Of course if Forest win that'll make it 14-17, so makes the Gameball the decider as it will be for Sanjay. Oh what tricks heh lads?

[St Charles Owl]

BBB, the Mansfield v Port Vale game has yet to take place, it is scheduled for this coming Saturday. There are three games left to be played, Liverpool v Real Madrid in the CL final, Huddersfield v Forest in the Championship PO and Mansfield v Port Vale in the League 2 playoff.

What! Oh yes stupid me. I really am getting dafter by the minute. I really thought they'd played that match.
Thanks for putting me right 3 chances now then as all different to Zinman who I wish all the best.
