Prediction League Season 2023-24

I keep getting a version which has the club badges. It doesn't behave like the old one.

You can't for example click from the league table directly through to a club page as you could before. Why the hell do they think we want badges at the cost of functionality?

 

Correct.....I'm getting that as well....but it is in alphabetical order.......

 

I posted an image of how it was: Birmingham City followed by West Brom and then Swansea, all at 12:30 of course.

 

Birmingham 0 - 2 Norwich
Coventry 1 - 1 QPR
Ipswich 3 - 0 Huddersfield
Leeds 2 - 2 Southampton
Leicester 3 - 0 Blackburn
Middlesbrough 2 - 1 Watford
Plymouth 2 - 1 Hull (26 mins)
Rotherham 0 - 3 Cardiff (joker)
Stoke 1 - 1 Bristol City
Sunderland 2 - 0 Sheff Wed
Swansea 2 - 2 Millwall
WBA 2 - 1 Preston

Total Goals.....37......wow that's a lot from me.

 

Well, if I wanted to, I could skive off this weekend as I think I've got the "Won't-Go-Away-Cough" that Sensible had. I'm just about going into the second week. No other symptoms: no temperature, no headache, no runny-nose, Covid negative but not much sleep either. I'll be going although I'm not looking forward to it, and I expect to be hoarse before the first goal.



Goal Time: 25 minutes.

 

The won't go away cough still hasn't and after tests it is a toss up between COPD or even the onset of Asthma in my dotage. It could of course be neither in the end because the experiment into what it is is still ongoing. After seeing the practice nurse this week I now have two inhalers. If I carry on like this I won;t have room in my suitcase for my shorts end of next week.

 

So 37 goals seems to be in favour this week.

 

I think i made mine 25 goals..

 

Oh I'm sorry Sensible, I thought you were match fit again.

Twenty five goals it is for you Away. There are three on 37: Lyndhurst, me and Plym. Musty is on 27, Joe on 30 and Sensible on 34. On ordinary match days, when total goals doesn't yield points, we're often all below 30 and undershoot the actual total by quite a bit. When there are points for goals, we all go higher and are closer. I'm conscious that there are some must-win games in this to decide who finishes where and I wonder whether that will produce fewer goals from tight games. Who knows?

 

What is it about 37 this week....I've just read your post above and you posted it 37 minutes ago......

 

Is it something to do with the Da Vinci Code?

 

I can't answer this until your post is 37 minutes old....at the moment it is only 26 minutes old....so I'll carry on watching the snooker......

 

Missed the 37th minute window.....so I assume it's self destructed.....sorry snooker more interesting.

 

It's getting towards Beer-O-Clock and there won't be much time tomorrow given the lunchtime kick off. So....





Two things that stand out for me. Firstly, how far Southampton have fallen off the promotion pace. Ipswich, promoted to the division only this year, have overtaken them in the race to automatic promotion to the EPL. None of us expect them to win at Leeds with most saying they'll lose.

The other is that Joe and Lyndhurst think Rotherham (1 point from their last 5 games) will beat Cardiff.



The "Forty Five Minute Pot" has now been thoroughly stirred. Previously the sole domain of Plym, everyone's at it. Any advance on 51 minutes anybody? 44 minutes perhaps?

 

Before I start I just want to wish you all the best for tomorrow - I'll be rooting for you

Birmingham 1 - 1 Norwich
Coventry 2 - 1 QPR
Ipswich 2 - 0 Huddersfield Joker
Leeds 2 - 0 Southampton
Leicester 2 - 0 Blackburn
Middlesbrough 1 - 0 Watford
Plymouth 2 - 2 Hull (30 mins)
Rotherham 0 - 2 Cardiff
Stoke 2 - 1 Bristol City
Sunderland 2 - 0 Sheff Wed
Swansea 2 - 1 Millwall
WBA 2 - 0 Preston

 

45 minutes has been known to last ten minutes.....if you know what I mean.......

And it could last a lot longer with a serious injury.....that obviously we don't wish on any one.

 

well its in our hands now

 

Thanks SMH. I remember the last time we got relegated - not that that is going to happen again - but the Demport spontaneously came up with the perfect song. Bob Marley's Three Little Birds.

"Don't worry bout a thing,
'Cause every little thing is gonna be all right.
Don't worry about a thing,
'Cause every little thing gonna be all right!"

It wasn't of course but still a great moment.

 

SMH should be rooting for us his end of term prediction was 21st. Where do we currently sit............Could be a late dash for the ginsters.
