Did I win?
It was fun while it lasted…
Round 8 - A shortened round but still not many points
After the postponements of Round 7 round 8 saw a shortened week with only 7 games going ahead. This lead to a poor points week with only 1 player, @Cobham-Saint, getting a slam point. This also means that said player also wins this week’s by a clear 2.5 points.
@Cobham-Saint predicted 5 of the 7 games correctly, with 1 exact. Not bad for the hebdomadal loser.
Bottom this week is our man in Poland @Polski_Filip, I suspect that unless he has made Round 9’s predictions already he will be bottom in Week 9 as well. Poor old Phil managed just 2 results, 1 close and earned himself 2½ points. Go @Polski_Filip

An aberration of a round. Normal service to be resumed in next round .
Round 9 - An age ordered weekly table??
Well with the oldest forum member at the top and the youngest at the bottom it could well be.
Congrats to @lifeintheslowlane on gaining his first of this year’s competition with a commendable 7 out of 10 results predicted, none exact though. In fact this week only one person got more the 1 exact score and they only got 2 results after that (4/10), however it did put @Polski_Filip in 3rd place.
@DellBoy was unlucky to come in 2nd with 7/10 results predicted, however he was beaten by @lifeintheslowlane getting 1 more Close
Bottom of this week’s stack, with just 1 result predicted, is the forum’s baby @SimplySaint, have a youngling

Round 10 - A Return to Form for @Cobham-saint
After coming second last round @dellboy has upped his game and won this week’s round quite convincingly, he scored a good 18 points with 8 of the 10 games predicted correctly, 3 exact and 4 close.
@NumptyBoi comes second 15.5 points with 1 less result than @Dellboy.
Bottom of this week’s stack and in his favourite place is @Cobham-Saint, they did correctly predict 3 of the results though so I suppose they should get some praise, not just a

So, the first time for a long time we have a consecutive winner of the , congrats to @DellBoy who manages to retain the vaunted hat, by the skin of his teeth some may say, They’re winning score made up of 3 close results and 3 exact results, if only @TheMightyOstrich had been a bit closer with his predictions.
@PhilippineSaint grabs this week’s with both hands, coming bottom by a massive 1pt from yours truly, 2 results out of 10 is not really that good.

As seems to happen a lot, but the othe way around, the winner of this round’s , @PhilippineSaint, is the winner of last round’s
To be honest 13 points isn’t a massive score but it’ll do for this round, 7 results out of 10, only 2 exact and 2 close though.
Better than @Saint-Rob’s measly 2.5 points that see him get this round’s

My level of ineptitude doesn’t happen just by itself you know. You need to study form and then take the opposite view
It is so tough having a 100% record
I aim for mid table mediocrity and achieve it
Round 13 - The Flightless Bird Soars
Hmm 13 points was enough for @PhilippineSaint to win last round, this round is won with an even lower score of 12½ points, only 5 of the games predicted with 3 exact sees @TheMightyOstrich beat @SimplySaint by 1½ points, @SimplySaint got 6 games predicted but not as close as @TheMightyOstrich.
Strangely I was 3rd with 7½ points from 5 results predicted, getting exacts is key people!!
@dellboy won the a couple of rounds ago and here he is at the bottom of this round, like I said last week, always seems to happen. Have a
