    So after all that B4E loses his perfect game but keeps the top spot as both Bodacious Benny and myself chose incorrectly. Acid Hippo leapfrogs from 4th up to 2nd while the mid-table stays very tight. Also congratulations on smbr77 and badgertoon20 on breaking their incorrect scoring streaks! 6 people still have the perfect incorrect game going...

    Here is the table - again please let me know if there's a way of getting it into a grid format!:

    [table]B4E 10
    Acid Hippo 14
    TommyToonAA 15
    Bodacious Benny 15
    Ose Mon Repose 16
    Albert's Chip Shop 20
    Little Lion Man 21
    Cisse's Overheating Torso 22
    Less Hope Than Neville 22
    Beardface 23
    Heisen 24
    Sienna88 24
    Beatski 24
    Matthieu 24
    smbr77 26
    CryMeARiviere 26
    Yacob 26
    badgertoon20 26
    TJR 28
    Cheik the Room 28
    Heed 31
    ALF 31
    El Marko 31
    KWW1958 31
    Cabella the Redeemer 31
    LaFraise92 31[/table]

    Next we'll be seeing who has left the premier league for good... not a lot of movement so far so hopefully some deadline day transfers liven up the game!

    See you then <cheers>

    Hopefully people will see these every week and be a bit more open to playing next season! I'll definitely be doing this again :)

    I'm definitely going to have to think of an award for the longest incorrect streak.... :bandit:

    Now you're thinking like me.

    Anyway, I'll just play it my way, where the highest points scorer wins - since when does anyone win with the lowest score. <laugh>

    So it's that time again...

    Who will have got a transfer away from the Premiership in Jan?

    I thought it was a fun question this week, but unfortunately clubs are now having to adhere to FFP and as a result transfers were drastically reduced. Luckily with a gameweek in the middle of the coming week we don't have to wait too long for hopefully a more exciting round!

    One answer was guessed correctly by 6 people while 2 answers are honourable mentions because the player was loaned out of the Premiership but not transferred (still incorrect though!)... As a result not a lot changed in the leaderboard except for 3 people getting their first correct answer. Kudos to those 3 <ok>

    As usual we will go incorrect, followed by correct, followed by the scores!

    Good luck everyone <badger>

    Most answers were incorrect this time so let's crack on with it...

    1) He looked way out of favour and is a bit of a handful at the best of times but stayed at Loftus Road...

    Incorrect Answer - Adel Taraabt
    KWW1958


    2) This Frenchman moved to Leicester in August 2012 and hasn't gone anywhere...

    Incorrect Answer - Anthony Knockaert
    CryMeARiviere


    3) 2 years into a 3 year contract which included a goal against our very own NUFC back in 2014, but he's still playing in the blue half of Merseyside...

    Incorrect Answer - Aroune Kone
    LaFraise92


    4) I thought this was a good shout but Pochettino (sp?) has shown faith in the lazy striker who almost makes Shola Ameobi look like a workaholic...

    Incorrect Answer - Emmanuel Adebayor
    Albert's Chip Shop


    5) Our nemesis in the derby last season, he's barely featured at Anfield this year and with the addition of Mario 2 of us thought he was a goner in January. 2 of us were wrong...

    Incorrect Answer - Fabio Borini
    TommyToonAA
    Sienna88



    6) Despite being involved in the England set-up and being a Stoke player he has been out on loan at loads of different clubs. He's still a Stoke player though so tough luck...

    Incorrect Answer - Jack Butland
    smbr77


    7) Our old left back is out in the cold at Liverpool but apparently no-one else wants him...

    Incorrect Answer - Jose Enrique
    B4E


    8.) The first of the honourable mentions! This German attacker hasn't really found his feet in London so is going to be joining our very own Davide Santon in Milan for 6 months on a loan deal. Unfortunately for this player in our game, the questions said transfers and not loan deals therefore he's incorrect...

    Incorrect Answer - Lukas Podolski
    badgertoon20


    9) 2 people thought this maverick would only last 6 months in his second stint in the league but were wrong...

    Incorrect Answer - Mario Balotelli
    TJR
    Acid Hippo



    10) Almost another honourable mention except this guy moved from East London to West London on a loan deal...

    Incorrect Answer - Mauro Zarate
    Matthieu


    11) He's currently on a season long loan deal in his native Portugal. It wasn't made permanent in January so this user joins the long list of incorrect answers...

    Incorrect Answer - Nani
    Cisse's Overheating Torso


    12) The second of our honourable mentions. Dimichelis is actually playing well so he seems out of favour but instead of a permanent deal, Schalke snapped him up in a loan deal...

    Incorrect Answer - Nastasic
    Cabella the Redeemer
    Cheik the Room



    13) Benteleb and Mason are playing really well so the slightly older Brazilian could have wanted a move but it didn't occur...

    Incorrect Answer - Paulinho
    Yacob
    Beardface



    14) He's playing second fiddle to Courtois but with Schwartzer leaving on loan Mourinho stated this man wasn't to leave in Jan...

    Incorrect Answer - Petr Cech
    Ose Mon Repose


    15) Our 15th and final incorrect answer is one of our very own. He divides opinion but I think Carver likes him (as do I)...

    Incorrect Answer - Vurnon Anita
    Beatski


    Phew! That took a lot longer to type out than I thought! We will all get our scores after finding out who the correct answer was!

    Only two correct answers... considering this is a Newcastle forum I'll give you all 2 guesses as to who one of them was!

    1) After falling out with managers wherever he goes he's now fallen out with FIFA over their rule stating he can't play for a 3rd team in a season. Some want him back (probably not as much as the local kebab shop owners) and most are happy to see the back of him... 6 people definitely are...

    Correct Answer - Hatem Ben Arfa
    Less Hope Than Neville
    Heed
    Bodacious Benny
    El Marko
    Little Lion Man
    ALF



    2) Wearsides American version of Emile Heskey will not be gracing us with his presence for another 6 months at least as he's now in Canada meaning that this user now has an ace so congratulations...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Jozy Altidore
    Heisen

    Next up, the scores :)

    You all know what time it is!

    GW25) Which team will have won away from home?

    That's right, we were after the teams that play just as well on the road as they do on their own patch. The teams that don't fear stepping into opposition territory and embarrassing them. The teams that play to win away from home instead of parking the proverbial bus.

    18 of the 20 teams were chosen as answers this week, with nobody thinking Leicester or Burnley would win away (although they were playing Man U, Arsenal, Newcastle, Sunderland and Liverpool in this time frame so probably a good decision by everyone). Of these 18 teams chosen, a massive 13 were correct answers while 5 were incorrect (both Leics and Burnley would have been incorrect too if they'd been chosen).

    It was a bad week to be wrong...

    ...So let's find out who was! <whistle>

    Good luck!

    Starting with the incorrect answers; alphabetically:

    1) In the time of this game their goal difference is a whopping -11 with only one goal scored. Which came at home. In a 1-2 loss to Chelsea. Ergo, they are an incorrect answer...

    Incorrect Answer - Aston Villa
    Cheik the Room


    2) This team lost at struggling West Brom, lost at high-flying West Ham and drew against Man City. As you do! Either way it's going to take a lot to cheer up Stevie Bruce ( :bandit: ) after their start to 2015...

    Incorrect Answer - Hull City
    Beatski


    3) 2 of our 3 non-Newcastle fans paid the price for this answer...

    Incorrect Answer - Sunderland
    KWW1958
    Sienna88



    4) No losses on the road so far in 2015 for this team. But no wins either. Draws at Everton, West Ham and Burnley mean they are an incorrect answer...

    Incorrect Answer - West Bromwich Albion
    Cisse's Overheating Torso


    5) They're high-flying as I mentioned earlier but are yet to win on the road this year...

    Incorrect Answer - West Ham United
    Heisen


    These 6 people will get their scores at the end!

    From most to least popular here are the correct answers:


    1) Our most popular answer has suffered a bit of a mid-season slump. However they managed a mini upset away on the south coast...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Swansea City
    Bodacious Benny
    Cabella the Redeemer
    Less Hope Than Neville
    smbr77



    2) Next, this looked like a bit of an odd answer but after an amount of attempts that made it into double digits they went away to our dear (smelly) rivals and beat them. 3 points to this managerless team, and 2 points to our 2 competitors...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - QPR
    Acid Hippo
    El Marko



    3) 2 people guessed that Carver would get a win, and thanks to Hull's incompetence that is exactly what happened...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Newcastle United
    Matthieu
    Yacob



    4) Again this team had 2 people guess it. Possibly the surprise package of the season so far...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Southampton
    Beardface
    Ose Mon Repose



    5) The final team with multiple answers, they've got the in form man of the moment and boy is he on fire at the moment, although their only win in this game came away at West Brom...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Spurs
    ALF
    Little Lion Man



    6) The savvy amongst you will have noticed that most of the big teams are left and they are all aces. So here is the first one! A win against Man City that the pundits won't stop going on about means that this team is correct...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Arsenal
    LaFraise92


    7) Top of the league with matches at Spurs, Swansea and Villa. Guaranteed answer with everyone playing it safe, right? Wrong! Only one person went for the double bluff and it paid off...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Chelsea
    TJR


    8.) Surprisingly a Pardew managed team came from behind to win. It was at Burnley but I guess it still counts and it's an excuse to use this photo...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Crystal Palace
    CryMeARiviere


    9) They've had a shocking season but went to Palace and won which is all that matters here...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Everton
    Albert's Chip Shop


    10) Our leader yet again gets it correct...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Liverpool
    B4E


    11) Very nearly a costly but obvious answer. Unfortunately Stoke were ****e so last season's champs become a correct answer...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Manchester City
    Heed


    12) A win at lowly QPR isn't necessarily a brilliant result but for this one user, it definitely was...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Manchester United
    badgertoon


    13) Finally, this team won the game I thought they would win and a result I am our final correct answer of the hame...

    please log in to view this image


    Correct Answer - Stoke City

    Now time for the scores!

    Finally it's time for the scores.

    Incorrect answers received 17 points (SHEEP answer of 4 [Swansea] and 13 correct answers) which means that the gap between incorrect and correct was much larger than any week so far.

    As a result we see some big fallers... Oh, and my Dad is the only person yet to guess correctly!

    B4E - 19
    TommyToonAA - 24
    Acid Hippo - 24
    Bodacious Benny - 25
    Ose Mon Repose - 26
    Little Lion Man - 29
    Albert's Chip Shop - 29
    Less Hope Than Neville - 32
    Beardface - 33
    Matthieu - 34
    CryMeARiviere - 35
    badgertoon20 - 35
    Yacob - 36
    TJR - 37
    smbr77 - 38
    Heed - 38
    ALF - 39
    El Marko - 39
    LaFraise92 - 40
    Heisen - 42
    Cabella the Redeemer - 43
    Cisse's Overheating Torso - 47
    Beatski - 49
    Sienna88 - 49
    Cheik the Room - 53
    KWW1958 - 56


    It's FA cup weekend so no reveal next week but we will be back in 2 weeks time seeing if people have correctly guessed the consistent foulers of the game.

    See you then!
