Too late for first goal prediction too, surely?

[Sean of the Shed]

Yes, it would have been discounted in this case as the game had already started.

Irony towers retakes top spot in the table, leading by five points from Logan Mountstuart and Guy Profumo in joint second. Top scorer was Duncan Gardner with eleven, whilst ad hoc got the three point bonus for the second week running after he correctly predicted which minute the first goal would be scored in the Man City v Villa game.

Manchester City v Southampton

Can we stipulate that predicted scorelines are spelt out a la vidiprinter?

[Sean of the Shed]

I can't remember what score had to be reached before they spelt it out, I think it was either 6(six) or 7(seven).

[irony towers]

Whichever it was, it certainly used SCREAMING CAPITALS.

The first League game we went to was Brentford vs Rotherham United in Division Three in 1980, a drab 1-0 away win. For some reason we hadn't seen a more local fixture listed, which finished Wimbledon 3 Grimsby Town 6 (SIX),
