    I'm putting this up early as I will be away at Christmas and not back until 30th December.

    There are 5 games to predict on in January 2024 as follows:

    Monday 1st January
    CHAMPIONSHIP

    • Swansea City 15:00 West Bromwich Albion
    Saturday 6th January
    THE FA CUP

    THIRD ROUND
    • Swansea City 17:30 Morecambe
    Saturday 13th January
    CHAMPIONSHIP

    • Birmingham City 15:00 Swansea City
    Saturday 20th January
    CHAMPIONSHIP

    • Swansea City 12:30 Southampton
    Saturday 27th January
    CHAMPIONSHIP

    • Leicester City 15:00 Swansea City
    We get to the tricky month of the year as the fourth round of the FA Cup is scheduled for weekend 27/28 Jan. In all probability the Leicester v. Swansea Championship game will not be played as at least one or possibly both teams will progress to Round 4. (Leicester are away at Millwall in Round 3).

    Please predict on the above 5 games exactly as shown. If Swansea reach round 4 then that game will NOT be predicted on as (obviously) we don't know who the opponents would be yet.

    If the Leicester v Swansea game is postponed then the results for January will be delayed until the game is re-arranged.

    Predictions must be posted ON THIS THREAD ONLY by 14:59 GMT (UTC+0) on Monday 1st January 2024.

    We need the total number of points gained in the 4 Championship games, the total number of goals scored in the 4 Championship games and the FA Cup third round game and the total number of goals conceded in the 4 Championship games and the FA Cup third round game.

    Good luck!

    Here's a reminder of January's results:

    Swansea 1 West Brom 0
    Swansea 2 Morecambe 0
    Birmingham 2 Swansea 2
    Swansea 1 Southampton 3
    Leicester 3 Swansea 1

    (... and thankfully the Bournemouth 5 Swansea 0 result was not included!)

    So, I make that:

    4 points, 7 goals scored and 8 goals conceded.

    The chart looks like this:

    Jan24final.jpg

    Points scored as follows:
    Swantastic 3+1+5=9
    Glamexile 5+3+5=13
    Nicewelshlumberjack 5+3+5=13
    Neveroffsidereff 5+3+3=11
    55282 5+5+3=13
    Aswan_dam 1+0+3=4
    Daimungeezer 1+1+5=7
    Taffvalerowdy 0+1+0=1

    We have 3-way winners this month with 13 points - Glamexile, Nicewelshlumberjack & 55282. Congratulations to them.
    The clear winner of this month's wooden spoon is Taffvalerowdy with a solitary point having slipped back into despair and despondency mode.

    Revised league table to follow shortly.

    Revised league table as follows:

    LTJan24.jpg

    55282 has now opened up a 3 point lead over neveroffsidereff. Nicewelshlumberjack moves up into third place.

    Who will maintain their form on the run-in?

    I think I’ve been over optimistic with my forecast for February …. I’ve said we will get 2 points …. <whistle>
