Re: 2012 Prediction League; Game 24 v Bradford City (away)
We remained reasonably confident for the Argyle game, with 24 backing us for the win and 5 each for the other options (a low attendance for the prediction league as well as for the game itself). Of the 5 correct drawmongers, Accybeme, Ack94V and FootyNut got it spot on for 5 points, with Kiwi John and Football19 taking 3. Only the odd bonus point for the rest of us.
As a result, Kiwi John slipped past Long Lost Son into third place, 2 points behind Ossy Kid and 4 behind Valairian. FootyNut leapt like a salmon into the Top Ten, to 8th from 18th.
Reality of sorts set in for the trip to Valley Parade, with just 9 keeping the faith, 12 hoping for another draw and 14 betting correctly against us, of whom David1 and Tommy McQueen got it spot-on for the max 5 points to bump them up the table a bit.
Of the 4 pointers, special note should be made of Alan7554 who first-off posted a 2-0 loss, then a 2-1 loss after the game had finished, then a confession that he’d lost track of time, being in Bangkok!! I’m guessing he’d also lost track of his first guess, which of course stands. Hope you’re better now Al, you’re up to 51st equal …
At the other end of the table, Valairian and Ossy Kid scored 3, and LongLostSon and FootyNut 4, leaving them in the top 4 places, with Kiwi John dropping back to 5th having failed to record a prediction.
Full table attached - next update after Chesterfield. Happy New Year - On Stanley On!!
