CPL vs. Manchester City

Hello!

Welcome to the final Canaries Prediction League thread of the season, and the last CPL thread that I shall be running. It's been a great honour and joy to run the CPL for such a brilliant group of people. In words similar to that of Sir Alex Ferguson yesterday, do please give the new guy time; he's been working on prediction leagues for many years, and, although he could never be as awesome as me, I'm sure he'll try his hardest.

On that note then, I'm sure you'll join me in thanking royalbarclayfan for agreeing to take up the mantle of the CPL next season. I'm sure he'll do an excellent job.

This next bit is aimed at KillerCanaryKris and RiverEndRick. As you both forgot to predict in the CPL Cup Final, we'll try again here. The one of you who gets more points for this game will win the CPL Cup. Please don't predict the same score-line or attendance as each other.

Just to clarify, this is the CPL for the game against Manchester City, to be played at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, May 19th 2013, K.O. 4pm.

It's the last CPL of the season, so scoring is tripled.

As such, scoring is as follows:

3 points just for predicting.

9 points for correct result (e.g. Norwich win).

An extra 15 points for correct score-line (e.g. 2-1 Norwich).

9 points for correct first Norwich scorer. 3 points if selected player scores at any point.

And a bonus 15 points for getting it all right.

Tables are here.

Best of luck to you all,

We Are Premier League.

HFM.

 

My prediction:

Manchester City 1-1 Norwich

Grant Holt.

 

Tough one , fear a slight back lash from cup disaster?
Man city 3-1 City
Holt

 

Citeh 1 - 2 City

Holty!

 

Fear not Mr. Hucks it´s all in good hands
No need to say ´shucks´ from your view in the stands,
A tradition here, which helps to enthuse
Like a jug of beer if we win draw or lose,
You´ve carríed on well after Essex´s start
Now I´ll have a spell with the CPL chart,
You deserve and I hope you´ll return
And predict the scores when you´ve some time to burn.

 

Man City 2 Norwich 2

Thanks rbf. Comments like yours' help me to realise that my hard work hasn't gone unnoticed. I will most certainly predict on the CPL next year if I have the time, thanks again for keeping it going.

 

Thanks for all the good work Hucks

Think we will turn over those funded by oil rich exploiters of the common man

Again my apologies for missing the Cup Final deadline, Hucks and my thanks as well for all the work you put into this and to RBF for taking it over.

ManCity 2-0 Norwich

No scorer (but I hope I'm wrong)

 

Thanks Hucks for doing this - good luck to RBF next season.

I've been crap recently so hope I'm wrong again but I fear an Aguero inspired Citeh to do us over.
