    Sorry I thought it would be obvious - even @Joelinton's Right Foot knew what I was getting at.

    Anyway this Armstrong first scorer that you predicted? Care to elaborate further?

    Tell you what we will do:
    There were 2 predictors who didn’t get points because they were more specific than you and indicated Armstrong A. I suspect in @Albert's Chip Shop case he wasn’t showing unusual levels of integrity but copying off the other (@Hung,Drawn and Quartered).
    So they can decide:
    They either both agree you get 3pts or 0.
    They disagree in which case you get 1.5pts

    Trev asked Susan Gray to conduct an independent inquiry for him and her report findings confirm he definitely meant Armstrong and would therefore like all 3 points.

    I think the fact this is a repeat offence on Armstrong this season should be taken into account. Trev clearly isn't learning so you should come up with some sort of repetitive and boring punishment to help him learn!

    Oh hang on - boring and repetitive? That wouldn't really be a punishment to Trev, would it?

    I did have a standing order, mind -which a was to copy the predictions of whoever is top of the table at the time. (Post 964 on this thread) That would be JRF so Saturday predictions were:

    Saturday 19th February
    West Ham 1 v 1 Newcastle Wood
    Arsenal 3 v 0 Brentford Lacazette
    Aston Villa 2 v 0 Watford Watkins
    Brighton 0 v 2 Burnley Maupay
    Crystal Palace 0 v 2 Chelsea Lukaku
    Liverpool 4 v 0 Norwich Salah
    Southampton 2 v 0 Everton 0 Broja
    Man City 3 v 0 Tottenham Sterling

    I'll change Sunday to:

    Sunday 20th February

    Leeds 1 v 2 Man Utd Fernandes
    Wolves 2 v 1 Leicester Jiminez

    Nothing like the thrill and excitement of stacking traffic cones into sets of 5, eh Nev? Woohooo.

    Not something I make a habit of doing <laugh>

    That's the key - learning from your mistakes

    If @Joelinton's Right Foot only played 80% of his wildcard should his 14 points be x by 180% and not by 200%?

    He has only used it for 8 of the 10 fixtures until I add his scores for the Sunday games.

    You don't get bonus points for being a goodie two shoes Nev, you just make others think you're a ****.

    I have applied @Ben 10 and @GeordieHalfbreed standing orders and added in Sundays results. Still waiting on adjudication for @Andra Tutto Bene. @Joelinton's Right Foot wins the week, using a double points card., @GeordieHalfbreed takes 2nd with @Albert's Chip Shop in 3rd. @Joelinton's Right Foot now opened up a 33pt lead at the top although @InBiscanWeTrust has an extra bonus card to play.
