    OK, I always assume that the Beeb is perfect in everything it does or at least the nearest we ever come to it in a far from perfect world.

    I will adjust my secret forecasting model.

    You can still have a lie down but I've corrected my prediction - i.e. it's still likely to be wildly inaccurate but it's in the correct order.

    The beeb aint what it used to be notdistant. Standards have slipped sadly. It wasn't a criticism and on reflection it might have been funny watching Joe trying to mark it. He's easily confused.

    Evening, well another poor result for us today. Rooted to the bottom. We must start soon. The winner again was Sensible on 14 points with the closest goal time, well done.. Next was BC on 7, lyndy had 6, Greenarmyjoe had 3, up the rear were NDG & Plym with 2 each..

    Next week is double points.. only 1 joker!

    The Table :

    1. Sensible 29
    2. PlymBorn 18
    3. NDG & Lyndhurst 15
    5. BC 11
    6. Joe 6

    Hope i have marked it correctly this week, i am sure i will know soon. :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Your trying to confuse Joe again notDistant.

    Barnet last on the list because it kicks off last at 8pm.

    If Joe just goes down the scores you might end up with different markings.....and maybe do even better.....of course no one will say anything if it gives you a lower total.........winning the wooden spoon Ginster pasty is not recommended.....you might have to eat it.......that's why sensible is so crotchety being last seasons wooden spoon winner

    Two games played and no one has a 100% record ?

    Nine teams top on 4pts ?

    Do we stand any chance of predicting this lot ?

    Bloody hell, submitting these things is more complicated than the actual forecasting.

    So, to recap.

    1 point for a correctly predicted result - i.e. a win for the correct side or draw, irrespective of the score
    3 points if the result is right AND with the predicted score.

    Jokers and first goal times will be discussed as an when I get one right.

    Predictions are to be listed in alphabetic order WITHIN chonological order of kick off time. So a Friday kick-off comes before a lunchtime Saturday, then the 3pm Saturdays then games on a Sunday.

    The treatment of late kick-offs is set on on pages 104-108.

    Games during Lent are to be listed as per the B regulations set out separately.

    When the moon is in the Seventh House and Jupiter aligns with Mars, then peace will guide the planets and fixtures will be listed in alphabetic order of the away teams' captains' surnames.

    I have re-submitted.

    You forgot one important point........Remain posters have 5pts deducted......Brexit posters have 5pts added.

    Seriously.... you putting Barnet top of the list isn't a problem.....but it keeps Joe on his toes to take note when checking the results.

    Friday & Sunday games will always be on different lists because they are played on different days.
