Prediction League Results - Week 11
#1
Group A

Themaclad 14
Twerton 13
Minizin 7
Amelia 6
Zinman 6
A.A.A. 0

This week saw something happen that cannot recall happening before!! The weekly table order completely mirrors the season’s league table current order - which means it was a good week for those at the top and not so good for those losing ground at the bottom!! Some things we have seen on a regular basis, such as this week the Gamball was a complete washout and only the top two picked up positive points on the Bonus!!

Themaclad leads the way with 14 points, he scored on 5 games and managed to get 2 CSs. Twerton ended a single point back despite scoring on one more game, mainly due to him only getting one CS.

Minizin ended with 7 points closely followed by Amelia and Zinman with 6 points each. They all managed to score on 4 games, including one CS each but Minizin has the slight lead as he managed to gain a point on the Scoreball!!

AAA was AWOL last week yet due to the rules of the game he managed to score 2 points less this week despite posting his predictions!! He ended the week on zero points, missed on all the balls and only got 2CRs to cancel out the negative scores!!

119 Themaclad
89 Twerton
85 Minzin
79 Amelia
77 Zinman
68 A.A.A.

So Themaclad seems to be an unmoveable force at the moment and increases his lead to 30 points. Twerton took back the 2nd place he has held for most of the season and lost during a couple of poor weeks. Minizin is now 4 points behind him. Amelia and Zinman are not far behind but a bit of a gap is opening up between them and AAA in the wooden spoon spot.

Group B

SCO 20
LadyJane 16
Derby 13
BBB 12
BaggieOne 8
Snooty 6
Stairs 5

Technically this week saw the highest points haul of the season fro Group B. I say 'technically' because Stairs picked up 5 points even though he didn't submit any scores! All of the balls saw decent returns (surprisingly nobody picked the Albion game for the scoreball!) with even the bonus ball generating a positive return!

SCO heads the table with aseason's best performance in many respects. It was his highest total points, his most correct results (7), his equal best number of correct scores (2) and his equal best ball score (6). It seems that falling to the bottom of the table last week acted as a motivator! A familiar name in 2nd place - Lady Jane. She's actually been in the top 2 in 7 of the 11 weeks so far, a consistency most of us can only dream about. She scored on 5 games and all of the balls to secure her 9th double figure score. Derby only managed 3 correct results but they included the gamball and a maximum bonusball to see him in 3rd place a point ahead of BBB who matched Lady Jane's correct scores/results but was one of the 2 players to miss out on his bonus.

BaggieOne was the only player not to pick up a correct score but his 4 correct results included his bonus to see him 2 points clear of Snooty who only scored on 2 games, though at least these included his bonus.

No predictions from Stairs so he sits at the foot of the table 1 point below the lowest scoring player.

141 LadyJane
104 Derby
82 SCO
81 BBB
78 Stairs
76 Snooty
73 BaggieOne


Lady Jane continues to stretch her lead at the top ahead of Derby who became the second Group B player to break into 3 figures. Below those 2, the rest are continuing to trade places, SCO climbing off the bottom to 3rd place and BBB climbing one place to 4th. Only 9 points separate the bottom 5 so I'd expect to see a few more weeks of movement amongst this group in future weeks.

Back next week after yet another international break.

That went away with Bomber when he left the forum. Both Zinman and I keep some season stats and what we tend to do is every few weeks reel off a few random stats and how everyone stands against them.

I am having a shocking season. So much happening I keep failing to submit my predictions.

I am doomed to relegation on this basis.

Can we all have a default prediction for when we fail. I’d like to have 1-0 results on everything, play the gamball. Be a smartass on the last fixture and a 1-1 score on the penultimate fixture for the other bonus.

Relegation? Like last year.
The tables will change sooner or later the wayward results cannot continue for much longer.

I can do this for you in future (if I remember!) At least you’re safe from relegation as we don’t have it this year, and anyway, SCO is in your group so you should be safe!

Oh yes please. At least then I have a baseline for a score contribution.

Even in a no relegation season I fear the drop!
