We are worse than the TV pundits. Not one of us predicted a Stoke win. I don't anyone thought Chelsea would win against Tottenham depsite their record against them for many years. We did better on predicting a Saints victory if not the correct scoreline. I got one completely correct result and score and a correct score, if not the scoreline so maybe I should join the TV pundits.

Do many listen to Radio 5 and miss the measured words of Jimmy Armfield?

 

Well done to saintsfcfan who is the 2nd weekly winner with 14pts.

No correct saints score prediction this week, best joker played by oddriveroakwizards on chelseas 1-2 win.

plenty of 2pts for those who picked a hone goalscorer - Gabbiadini a popular choice. saintsfcfan was the only one to pick an away scorer in Hernandes.

Best goals game was the saints game with 5 goals. Only FLT picked that one

Saintsfcfan picked up a bonus point for picking a home and away scorer and oddriveroakwizards 2 bonus points for 2 exact score predictions (pompeys 1-1draw and chelseas 1-2 win)

Good to see I am still keeping up my mediocrity.

 

things going pretty much as usual. I'll finish 16th again as anyone who scores less than me any week drops out in disbelief.

 

Mid-table obscurity at the moment but these are early moments in this marathon. I confidently expect to be challenging for a top 6 place by Christmas due to my past experiences in predicting anything but the correct result, never mind the winners.

 

After the stick dished out, this should have had a fanfare....
