With 88 minutes gone the coolest man in the house would have been Ruislip, because he knew what was going to happen. 1 â 0 Cisse, spot on, well done mate. Goldcoast and my new mate Nines also got the exact score, the vast, vast majority of the rest of us picked up 3 points each. Coldharbour is looking secure in 2nd place, but letâs see who is going to gamble next week. Table to follow. On a personal note is it was great to meet both Nines and Norway, both very likeable, genuine guys. The look on Ninesâ face when he realised that my match buddy, as I introduced him, was none other than our very own Brixton was priceless.

Thoroughly enjoyable to meet you today, and thanks for bringing Brixton! Brixton, nice meeting ya, believe me I was as surprised as Nines. Smashing day all over
Brilliant roller. It's a huge job you gave yourself, and you've delivered every time. A consistently great effort mate. I bet meeting up was a laugh - did you call each other roller, brix, Norway and nines? Wubba - dream on buster.
Roller, I'd just like to offer my penultimate thanks yet again for your efforts. It was great to meet you today and indeed it was quite amazing the way you introduced your ' Match buddy ' who as it turned out happened to be the legend that is Brixton. Well played mate. As always it was a pleasure to be re-aquainted with Norway, he always brings good fortune when he make the overseas trip to attend HQ. Long may that continue. I've met some wonderful people from our board this season, they've all been great people ( they know who they are ) and I hope we can continue that next season. U Rsssss.
Nines and Norway: Great 'meeting' you both too - and the Rangers-bedecked little Norway! As I said yesterday, Nines is instantly recogniseable in life as the character that comes across on here. Great socialite and communicator. Perpetual smiling eyes that suggest things can't be that bad (what an asset for an emergency worker). I learned lots of stuff yesterday, not least about fat ladies and singing (!) - but particularly about Nines' and his eternal optimism. Believe me, it's no act, it's steeped in his blood!! As for our Norway, the complete antithesis of the blue-eyed, blond Scandinavian stereotype and a little quieter in life than on here - unless jet-lag has a part to play. He, and his little son, left me stumped by their commitment to things Rangers. To think they'd set out from Stavern and arrived in the pub in Uxbridge Road in good time before the game. A-mazing! Puts me in my place. I'll never moan about my trip up from south London again! Big up guys - and to all Scandinavian fans (of any UK club). You guys love your football and it's great sharing the game with such a genuinely passionate people. Smaller world clearly has massive benefits for us all. (Stick that in your article Roller!)
About the prediction competition. Thanks again for your efforts Roller - and as for youse also rans... NER!!!
Cheers Roller,not so cool though and just so pleased we won. First time Ive been right on score and scorer. Next week is a little harder to predict.
