2014/15 Prediction League - Game 37 v Wycombe Wanderers (away)

[Chimer]

Fencesitters Profit, But Make Only Modest Progress

Fresh from their success at Burton, Saturday's Top 6 stuck with pessimism for another away game against another automatic promotion challenger - and came unstuck along with 3 other doubters. 15 kept the faith and received equally meagre reward , just a bonus point if they'd stuck a 2 in somewhere.

11 fencesitters did rather better , but there were only 3 maximums, 2 coming from default forecasts, Mike A moving from 20th to 17th and Norwich Stanley from 29th to 27th. The third was mine , taking me from 25th to 22nd. So no great rewards for anybody, though curiously LongLostSon's mere 3 points gave him the biggest jump, from 14th to 9th . Nearer the top, Bdc pushed on from 7th to 5th, while Deeayess's single bonus point brought him equal on points with Nige B and thus back to 2nd on countback. AngeB's lead remains 16 points, and Cashman in 31st is now the lowest placed possible winner , with 45 points available to go for.

So roll on the KitKat merchants, who are only out of the relegation places on goal difference. This usually acts as a signal for us to be kind - but surely not this time? Please??

On Stanley On!!

Ahhhh ..... yes, that'll be because I've recorded the score as 1-1 instead of 2-2 , which means most of my previous post should be ignored and the published table is completely wrong ........ will try again tomorrow!

Headline change is that all 3 of you at the top should have got a point, so you stay ahead of Deeayess (but no closer to Ange!)

Thanks for pointing this out and keeping me on the straight and narrow, it's encouraging to know people actually read the drivel I push out on a regular basis

Shock Revision To Prediction League Table As Idiot Reporter's Mistake Corrected Thanks To Player Vigilance

Yes well the moral of the story is "Don't trust a word I say" ....... amendments and additions in red italics

Fresh from their success at Burton, Saturday's Top 6 stuck with pessimism for another away game against another automatic promotion challenger - and came unstuck along with 3 other pessimists. 15 kept the faith and received equally meagre reward, a bonus point if they'd stuck a 2 in somewhere.

11 fencesitters did rather better, but there were only 3 maximums, 2 coming from default forecasts, Mike A moving from 20th to 14th and Norwich Stanley from 29th to 24th. The third was mine, taking me from 25th to 20th. So no great rewards for anybody, though unsurprisingly LongLostSon's 3 points did not give him the biggest jump, from 14th to 13th. Nearer the top, Bdc, Jim's Lad and Tommy McQueen climbed over Football 19 to take 6th, 7th and 8th, while the Top 5 all took a single BP so nothing changed there. AngeB's lead remains 15 points, and Cashman in 32nd is not the lowest placed possible winner with 15 points available to go for - that honour rests with Accymad in 30th.

The attached table has also been revised.

So roll on the KitKat merchants, who are only out of the relegation places on goal difference. This usually acts as a signal for us to be kind - but surely not this time? Please??
