    It comes as no surprise that Brixton managed to hold on to his lead and comfortably win the inaugural Not 606 QPR Prediction League. Well done mate! Brixton totally dominated from the first week but still claims he couldn’t predict the sun coming up in the morning!

    But as for second place.....

    Coldharbour went into the final match with a 4 point lead over 12thman and Col, Tooting being one further point behind. For reasons that may get revealed by him later, Coldharbour did not enter a score leaving his second place very vulnerable. All of the three chasers went for convincing home wins with none of them predicting an away goal. So they got two points each for the home win, it now comes down to the number of City goal scorers they got correct. 12thman only got Aguero, Col likewise, Tooting the same. Each picked up 3 points and did not catch Coldharbour who hung onto 2nd place by the narrowest of margins.

    Pride of place in the last week goes to Bill who got the score spot on plus two scorers. Bill’s predictions were always entertaining all season long, I think it was fitting that he topped the final week’s scores.

    Thanks to all who entered for wholeheartedly embracing the competition and for always staying within the spirit intended, no Ashley Youngs here!

    Cheers,

    Roller

    Thanks Roller, great job. I predicted a 2-2 and was less than a minute away from claiming 2nd or 3rd place.
    This was a great idea and made me really think about our coming match.

    32nd but not sure I got one right all year. Thanks for doing it though...I'm sure it took a bit of work to update each week.

    Roller. Fantastic job done in creating and maintaining a compelling competition week in and out over nine long months. Think I speak for most of us in thanking you very much for a heading up a sideshow that has added great quality to the allure of this forum; and , as NUTS says, kept us all focused on the upcoming games which is afterall, what we're on here for.

    Bill: Special thank you to you too. Whilst the uncompromising optimism in your weekly predictions were never going to score you too many points with this shower on the pitch, they sure provided a warm backdrop. Was made up when you finally got real - AND not only scored points but put the rest of us to shame in the process. Just imagine what you'd have ended up with if you'd bothered with that kind of insight from day dot!

    Wubba kept making threats to overtake me, but I kept my head down, took care of my own business and held him off. Conratulations Brix, you deserved the title after leading all season. And thanks to Roller yet again for running a very enjoyable competition.

    Well done Roller for perservering - too many good ideas fall by the wayside.

    Since I only made about 3 predictions, I won't complain too much about dropping off the bottom. ;)

    Cheers Roller, massive effort and it's much appreciated. I didn't start playing until three games in of the season and I missed the last game (away camping for the weekend, forgot to enter a score before I left), so obviously I would have beaten Brix had I been more on the ball!

    I sincerely hope that we do this again next season. But I'd understand if Roller would rather pass the baton to someone else!

    29th, not bad for coming in half way through the season! I also predicted 2-2 against city and three of my four named scorers this week came in... damn that last minute goal!

    Seriously though thanks once again Roller, fantastic competition and extremely well run! Now, how about a Euros prediction competition... <cheers>
