    Brian's Predictions League 2019/20

    League Table

    The major winner of our midweek round was Mark with a phenomenal score of 182 - mostly achieved with a unique scoreline in the Hornets match, supplemented by being the only poster to get the Chelsea-Man City scoreline correct. What appeared to be a two horse race at the top is no longer so. Matej increased his lead a little as we start to come into the finishing strait. Another winner of the round was Lawro with 113 :headbang: . We have had 20 matches so far in empty stadiums and 9 home wins, 5 draws and 6 away wins - so it appears that the expected loss of home advantage hasn't occured. In fact it is often the case that the away section makes more noise at stadiums so it may have a reverse effect. What is observable is that a very large number of games are being played to 0 - with both teams scoring in only 6 matches - this is well below the average. Perhaps this is explained by a large number of players and teams looking as if the restart has been an unwelcome intrusion into their summer holidays. Apologies to anyone who was caught out by the midweek round - with games coming in with much more frequency than normal it is necessary to keep on the ball.

    Shame I got our result right though.

    We looked like a team who had minds elsewhere sadly.

    A very low scoring round this time, which has enabled Chris and Hackney to close the gap on the top three, making it all rather close up there as we come down into the final month. Highest score of the day was by Seb with 78. For the statisticians there were 5 home wins and 5 away wins in this round with no drawn matches.with no less than 34 goals going in. Alert eyes will see a change in colour for the thread - this is to accomodate both our colours and those of the Canaries - so the thread title is now in memory of lost friends who have both taken part in this league.

    It is a bit confusing Yorkie because they are trying to cram in a lot of matches into a short space of time, and the televising of all of them means staggered kick off times. This means that the rounds are tending to run into each other without much breathing space in between. At the moment only Fridays appear to be without Premier League football Running this through into June and July is also confusing as it would normally be the summer break for us.

    I may as well have missed a week. I've been rubbish since the restart. Makes me think of a team I know.

    Hi Cologne,
    I realise it is all over the place with fixtures but I’m sure I posted my predictions, see post #610 or is that for a different week?

    Thanks for all your hard work doing this.

    Hi Charlie - post 610 was for the last round, which only finished last night with the Spurs v Everton game. I haven't posted the new positions which cover that round yet though they will be there within the hour.

    Something of an earthquake at the top with Frenchie and Mark both getting massive scores to overtake Matej. In Frenchie's case this was a result of getting the Hornets result correct, together with the joker and one other unique scoreline. There are now 4 rounds left and so any lead at this stage is not conclusive - there is still time for those in mid table to put the cat amongst the pidgeons - though late runs for the title should be starting now. We now have a short break because the next round starts in Saturday and we can watch the Hornets grab maximum points tonight without having to tip on it.

    Well done CH for keeping up and making sure everything is up to date!

    Let's hope the GBs on the pitch follow....well we've got to at some point.

    Hate to say it but think I've got every WFC result but gone for 4 points this week so hopefully that trend can continue.

    Brian's Predictions League 2019/20

    League Table
    One of the lowest scoring rounds ever has seen no changes at the top, apart from Hackney and Chris closing the gap. Highest score of the round was a modest 78 by myself. It's all quite close at the top with only 3 rounds to go. I apologize for the 'rolling fixture' nature of our league at the moment, but this is outside my control. The next round starts tonight and everything is still very close at the top.

    Is this the closest finish to a season we’ve ever had? Five people separated by about 70pts? Wow.
