One full day remaining and only 29 teams have got their predictions in - they can't all still be waiting for planes!

My homeward carriage will be particularly slow so there is unlikely to be a further update here until at least Sunday afternoon.

The matches haven't all been played yet.

Fair enough.

Well for the teams at the top, MHS got a win as his 'opponent' did not show up (unless he scored 0).

Same is true for Blue Maniac so at least 2 points for him.

As for the other teams in and around, I don't think Kingy made his predictions so no points there.

Here are the latest scores for the teams at the top:

Jeff (7 points):
Barnsley v QPR (Sat 15:00) 1-1 0
Bristol City v Derby 2-0 1
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 3-0 1
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 1-0 1
Middlesbrough v Coventry, 2-1 0
Newcastle v Ipswich 2-0 0
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 3-1 1
Peterborough v Blackpool 1-3 1
Preston v Leicester 0-2 1
Sheff Utd v Swansea 1-0 1
Watford v Reading 0-1 0
Crystal Palace v West Brom (Mon 20:00) 1-1 ?

Pork Pie Fox (16 points):
Barnsley v QPR 1 - 1 0
Bristol City v Derby 3 - 1 1
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 2 - 0 1
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 2 - 1 1
Middlesbrough v Coventry 2 - 0 0
Newcastle v Ipswich 3 - 1 0
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 3 - 0 5
Peterborough v Blackpool 1 - 2 3
Preston v Leicester 1 - 1 0
Sheff Utd v Swansea 2 - 0 5
Watford v Reading 2 - 2 0
Crystal Palace v West Brom 1 - 2 ?

So a guaranteed win for Pork Pie there.

Granite Fox (16 points):
Barnsley v QPR (Sat 15:00) 1-1 0
Bristol City v Derby 2-0 1
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 2-1 3
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 2-0 1
Middlesbrough v Coventry, 1-0 0
Newcastle v Ipswich 3-1 0
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 3-0 5
Peterborough v Blackpool 2-3 1
Preston v Leicester 0-1 5
Sheff Utd v Swansea 1-1 0
Watford v Reading 1-2 0
Crystal Palace v West Brom (Mon 20:00) 1-2 ?

jas123 (17 points):
Barnsley v QPR 1-2 3
Bristol City v Derby 2-0 1
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 2-0 1
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 3-2 3
Middlesbrough v Coventry 3-1 0
Newcastle v Ipswich 3-0 5
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 3-1 1
Peterborough v Blackpool 1-3 1
Preston v Leicester 2-3 1
Sheff Utd v Swansea 2-1 1
Watford v Reading 1-2 0
Crystal Palace v West Brom 2-2 ?

On a knife edge that one - A 1-0, 2-1 or 3-2 win for West Brom tonight would see Granite take the points, any other West Brom win would see the match a 17 - 17 draw. Any other result would see jas123 take the points.

Brown Nose (12 points):
Barnsley v QPR (Sat 15:00) 1-2 3
Bristol City v Derby 0-0 0
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 1-2 0
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 2-0 1
Middlesbrough v Coventry 2-1 0
Newcastle v Ipswich 1-1 3
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 2-0 1
Peterborough v Blackpool 1-2 3
Preston v Leicester 0-0 0
Sheff Utd v Swansea 1-1 0
Watford v Reading 3-2 1
Crystal Palace v West Brom (Mon 20:00) 2-4 ?

Joe_Fox (14 points):
Barnsley v QPR (Sat 15:00) 1-1 0
Bristol City v Derby 2-0 1
Cardiff v Sheff Wed 3-0 1
Doncaster v Scunthorpe 1-2 0
Middlesbrough v Coventry 2-2 3
Newcastle v Ipswich 3-1 0
Nottm Forest v Plymouth 3-0 5
Peterborough v Blackpool 1-2 3
Preston v Leicester 1-1 0
Sheff Utd v Swansea 2-1 1
Watford v Reading 1-3 0
Crystal Palace v West Brom (Mon 20:00) 1-2 ?

Again, a pretty close one - a 3-1, or 5-3 win for West Brom tonight would mean the match would be a 15-15 draw, a 4-2 win for the baggies would see Brown Nose take the match 17-15 whereas any other result would see the points go to Joe_Fox.

It's all hotting up in the Chumps! ooo er

I presume that this is your application to take over the running of the Prediction League when I finally give up the ghost. I suggest that you buy a new spreadsheet before you do so if you want it to be a success.

Jeff (7 points)
Pork Pie Fox (16 points)

No, it's Jeff 9 : 18 Pork Pie Fox

Granite Fox (16 points):
jas123 (17 points)

The score so far is Granite Fox 18 : 14 jas123, which makes your analysis of the effect of the possible scores in tonight's match totally meaningless.

Brown Nose (12 points)
Joe_Fox (14 points)

Was this just a lucky guess?

Good analysis of tonight's possibilities as well, although you missed that a 2-0 Baggies victory would also cause your game to be drawn (as would any other 2 goal margin in that direction)

 

[Joe_Fox]

Gotcha - I was thinking that if you predicted 2-1 and it was 4-3 then you only got one point but you get three points right?

My reasoning behind this was that if you predict 0-0 and it's 2-2 then you only get 1 point.

That's how it is and fair enough, I just don't really agree with it.
