                    Final scores:

                    ad hoc 13 256
                    irony towers 7 242
                    Sean of the Shed 9 240
                    Merseybeast 10 236
                    Logan Mountstuart 8+3 235
                    longeared 6 229
                    Sporting 7 224
                    Sits 3+3 211
                    CY_Boaby 7 210
                    Jah Womble 10 207
                    ​​​pebblethefish 6 203
                    Duncan Gardner 5 202
                    nmrfox 6 196
                    Guy Profumo 9 190

                    So in the end it was an easy final day as ad hoc coasted to the title with the day's highest score of 13 to win this season's competition by 14 points from last season's champion irony towers in second, with myself two points further back in third. Merseybeast just held on to fourth spot by a point from Logan Mountstuart, who, along with Sits, picked up the three point bonus for being one away from the total of 31 goals scored today.
                    Hearty congratulations to ad hoc on his first title. Hopefully I'll see you all in the Euro 21 prediction competition and then we will do it all again for the 21/22 season.

                      I'd like to thank the academy, otf, God, and most of all Sean of the Shed

                      Comment


                        Very well done on a splendid victory, ad hoc , reminiscent of Red Rum reeling in Crisp in 1973.

                          Congrats, ad hoc.

                          And many thanks once again, Sean.

                              Congrats ad hoc, thanks as ever to Sean for all of the time and effort he puts in to keep us all entertained, and well done to Sits for finally managing to beat me!

                              Comment


                                Well done Andy. A worthy winner, and you've helped prove that IT is actually beatable.

                                And thanks again, Sean. Let's try and get some newcomers next year to really justify your efforts.

                                  What with the Euros sandwiched tightly between the end of last season and the beginning of this one, it feels like there is no rest from the bloody football, and a good thing too for all of us prediction competition aficionados.
                                  The English Football League restarts this coming weekend, and so do we.
                                  For those who are new to the game (and newcomers are indeed very welcome), and those who need to be reminded every year, here are the rules:
                                  Each round will be 10 games, hopefully all played on the same day, so all Saturday games, and if we do a midweek one then they will all likely be on the same night. Though it will be based mainly on the Premier League, there may also be lower league games, cup games, international games, European competition etc.

                                  I'll post the games no later than 48 hours before the first kick-off, so Saturday games will be no later than midday Thursday, and midweek games will be no later than 7pm two days before, but if I can, I'll post them as early as possible.

                                  Any posts made after the kick-off time, or edited after the kick-off time will be null and void for the relevant game(s). Watch out for early Saturday games kicking off at midday.

                                  Predict the score of all games. Correct score is 3 points, correct result is 1 point. No minus points, no safe games, no bankers. There will usually be a bonus such as first scorer for a game, first yellow, or something like.

                                    Here are the games for Saturday 7th August:

                                    Cardiff City v Barnsley
                                    Queens Park Rangers v Millwall
                                    Stoke City v Reading
                                    Cambridge United v Oxford United
                                    Shrewsbury Town v Burton Albion
                                    Charlton Athletic v Sheffield Wednesday
                                    Exeter City v Bradford City
                                    Salford City v Leyton Orient
                                    Scunthorpe United v Swindon Town
                                    Tadley Calleva v Baffins Milton Rovers

                                    First game kicks off at 3pm BST. For the three point bonus predict which of the 24 teams in the Fourth Division (League 2 if you must) is the first one to score (minute of game should any kick off late).

                                                Ok I’ll admit, that was an intentional assist so Sean could tap it in. The new season just wouldn’t feel right otherwise.

                                                  To be fair you would only have had to wait for Jah Womble to come on and ask for something.

                                                    If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing twice.
