Silverpaw Prediction League round 34 - 16/17/18 May 2009

[Majago]

No further goals, so after the Saturday games this weekend we have y2viks on 16 points, eight ahead of the next, cheets64 , Stoddy and talkshowhost.

Howard, by my calcs I've got 9 points from 2 scorelines and 3 outcomes? It's quite possible I'm wrong though

 

[ONESHOTKILL]

Just sitting at work in ladbrokes and checked if he had £1 on that 5fold on correct score it would have paid £27,378 :0 oh and if he had man u score aswell it would have paid £328,536

pwned, worth a few quid bet when you do your predictions

 

[ONESHOTKILL]

its worth just putting a quid on every correct score because normaly everyone here gets atleast one right and most will pay 7/1 +

You're quite right, Majago. I have got you down as 9 points. I just missed that 9 when skimming through the scores. My apologies.

To my mind that shows why bookmakers tend to have successful businesses. So far this season, we have had 14214 predictions up to yesterday's matches, and of those, we have had 1297 correct scorelines. That's a success rate of just over 1 in 11. Getting odds of around 7 to 1 would certainly not favour the punter.

Indeed apart from a couple of people who have only predicted for one or two weeks, y2viks is the only person to have achieved better than 1 in 7, and that's primarily due to yesterday's performance.

You, for instance, ONESHOTKILL, have a success rate of about 1 in 15.

lol,at the start of this season i hardly did 2-1 scores or 2-0's i like to go for big scorelines,but towards the end i started doing the 2-1's and 2-0's ,plus i always tend to say chelsea to get beat and liverpool lol, next season we should do first goal scorers,if you get the scorecast you get 6 points lol,ive never had a scorecast,been working for ladbrokes 3 years and betting on footy at weekends and never had one

lol

I'm not entirely sure I understand what you're saying, even after 4 reads...

 

[ONESHOTKILL]

what the scorecast thing? or the entire thing lol

 

[Drawoh Tesremos]

As expected after Saturday's performance, it's a clear win for y2viks this week. With 18 points he's three ahead of his closest rival Stoddy. Majago is third, one point behind Stoddy.

Both y2viks and Majago managed eight correct forecasts. But it was y2viks amazing five scorelines that gave him top spot.

Great drama in the season's table. Miguél's seemingly unassailable lead of 12 points with just two weeks remaining has been dramatically slashed to only a 5 point lead over Stoddy. So there's still all to play for in the final round. After these two, it's a race for third place with six people separated by only six points.

You had a mistype in round 33 last week. I mentioned it before the game was played, but you didn't see it.

West Ham - 1 Liverpool

 

[BaZ87]

Average week but back into the CL spots

Cheers Howard

 

[Greenlizard0]

Balls, another terrible week dropping me a place. Hopefully will come good in the final round.

 

[BaZ87]

Im going to wait 1 minute before kick-off and just copy your predictions so you can't catch me

Ah ok, never mind, i'm sure it hasnt made too much difference to my title challenge .

 

[daz.wallace]

another poor week, Correct Chelsea score saved it from being a really bad week. Hope I can stay in the top 10 though in the last week.

Cheers Howard

 

[Majago]

Thanks Howard

Here's hoping for 3 points next week to break the 200 barrier...
