Just a quick reminder - Tuesday's upcoming game between Man Utd and Brighton is a rearranged Matchday 18 game for which you've already forecast back on page 29 on the 8th of December which I'll include in the next table I publish after Tuesday.

I'll try and publish a table tonight as the Chelsea vs Arsenal fixture has been postponed.

Guess that most people got 4 points for the league game last night?

Actually nobody got 4 points from last night. Most got 1 point but 2 went for the draw.

It'll be reflected in the table after this weekends matches.

GadgetMac - Can you re-check as I think we predicted these on 7/8 December and I had a quick look and Mickk, Gadgetmac, JIffle, JWVW, Brabus and V15Ben all had 2 0 for Man Utd. NW Tom and Drezza too I think

I turned it off in the 94th minute, it was a turgid match so I thought it ended 1-0

Yep, you're absolutely correct.

Where was my back-up is the question I need answering now...

I did myself out of 3 points there! Cheers

I was going to post you'd fked it up but I figured with the way Spurs are going you have enough to worry about

Why would I worry about Spurs?

[Gadgetmac]

A quick heads up...

There are games during the week next week (Wednesday 23rd Feb & Thursday 24th Feb) which are re-arranged fixtures that were cancelled previously.


Wednesday 23rd Feb

Burnley v Spurs (from Matchday 13)
Watford v Crystal Palace (from Matchday 18)
Liverpool v Leeds (from Matchday 19)

Thursday 24th Feb

Arsenal v Wolves (from Matchday 20)

I have your forecasts for these and will feed your points earned (if any) into the table I produce following Matchday 27's fixtures at the latest..

Just waiting on:

I'm sorry Pommy but I have to ignore your forecasts this week

I have absolutely no doubt about the sincerity of your reason but if you remember back to the kerfuffle when Jiffle was merely 1 minute overdue a couple of seasons ago I have to be consistent on this matter however much I personally don't want to be.

Sorry fella.

Ok girls it's another double forecast I'm afraid due to the fixtures being compressed into a shorter time-frame this season.

There is one rearranged game between these two matchdays between Burnley and Leicester (Tuesday 1st March) and I already have your forecasts for this game. There are also 3 games on Thursday 10th March which I have your forecasts for as well - namely Southampton vs Newcastle, Wolves vs Watford & Leeds vs Aston Villa.

It's the usual format please - one blank line between your predictions for Matchday's 27 & 28.

By this Friday at 6pm please.

Matchday's 27 & 28

13 scores copied from weirdly coincidentally the same as Jiffle.

You know, if you`d have started doing this months ago you would have been challenging for top spot.

Yeah, thats the way to catch up and overtake Jiffle from 27 points behind - copy all of his predictions - can't see any obvious flaw in that plan

Good to know that you're spending soooo much time comparing our 2 sets of forecasts though. Maybe if you spent as much time on forecasting the correct West Ham score you might actually win this thing.

Gadge old son, there is no way I`m winning the Thon. I couldn`t do that to you.

Course you can. Copy jiffles forecasts.

[Gadgetmac]

Ronstein: I've just loaded up everybody's forecasts into the spreadsheet and noticed that you've only forecast for 9 fixtures on Matchday 27. Sorry fella but rule 2 para 4 applies.


"Make sure you have the right number of scores in the list! If you don't it will be your loss as I won’t be counting your entries and notifying you if you are short, in such cases your scores will be deemed to correspond to the games in order, ie. if you only post 9 scores, these will be deemed to apply to the first nine matches and you will be awarded zero points for the tenth match. ‘Edited’ forecasts are not permissible and will be ignored so once you press ‘post’ I’m afraid that’s it."


Again sorry chap. You just need to add up the number of forecasts you've actually made immediately before posting. It should always be 10 per matchday.

Cheers

Hi Gadge, are you going to add the points from the games played on the 23rd and 24th February? I need them!

I'll check but I'm pretty sure they are in there already. They won't show as points you've earned for this Matchday but will reflect in the league table I published above.

I'll check later this evening.

ETA: Nope, you're quite correct LN, they haven't been added yet. I'm going to have to sack my second-in-command

New table incomming...
