Having broadband issues atm. Can't upload this month's chart yet. But needless to say that only half way through the month no-one is yet in a scoring slot apart from 55282, actual points so far =7, his prediction = 9. Hopefully situation will be rectified shortly...
Internet has been down at home for 9 days...they sent me a new router but that hasn't worked. Promised a visit by an engineer on Monday morning... Anyhow, by my calcs after 6 games of 8 this month we now have 10 points, scored 7 goals and conceded 4 goals. No-one is in the 5 point zone in any category atm, and if you were you probably wouldn't be staying there anyway! The closest are: Points. 55282 on 9 pts and the TRBubbles on 11 points. Goals scored. Nice Welsh lumberjack predicted 8. Goals against. Swantastic, Daimungeezer and Aswan predicted 5. The numbers can only go up and never down..!
After today's 2-0 away win at QPR, we now have this month: 13 points, scored 9 goals, conceded 4 goals. The chart now looks like this: So, one game left; a home game against Reading on Wednesday night. Who can come up with a clean sweep of 15 points? Taffvalerowdy can do it with a 2-2 draw. A win would give Musty his 16 points, but he would need us to score 3 and also concede 3 which is not a win. Our current leader, The Real Bubbles could well get 0 prediction points in the points section and probably 0 prediction points in the goals conceded section. Will Neveroffsideref or Glamexile make up some ground?? All will be revealed on Wednesday. January's prediction thread to go up early next week.
Surely we would all like the Swans to beat Reading rather than get points on this months prediction league...after all the latter is a marathon not a sprint...isn’t it?
The final result of December is Swansea 0 Reading 0. That gives a final total of: 14 points, 9 goals scored, 4 goals conceded. The final chart looks like this: Individual scores: Azzuriswan 0+0+0=0 Swantastic 0+0+3=3 Mustyfrog 1+0+0=1 Neveroffsidereff 3+0+0=3 Daimungeezer 3+3+3=9 Aswan Dam 3+5+3=11 Taffvalerowdy 5+1+1=7 Nicewelshlumberjack 1+3+0=4 Glamexile 1+3+0=4 The Real Bubbles 0+5+0=5 55282 0+5+0=5 This months top points scorer is Aswan_dam with 11 Next best is Daimungeezer with 9 points, then Taffvalerowdy with 7 points. This month's wooden spoon goes to Azzuriswan with a miserable 0 points Updated league table to follow shortly...
So despite a fairly poor month, Bubbles now has a 9 point lead with Nev, Glam & Aswan in pursuit. Last year's champ still in 10th place (well 9= actually). Forgot to edit the positions. Never mind.
A bit like the Swans if I had taken my chances I could have been above Never and in 2nd place but more than happy to be in 3rd at the halfway mark
