I'm starting off with a ?200 float, with a contingency of ?50 if things get a bit messy and I still want to bet on Gold Cup day. Amount for each bet will depend on how things pan out... 1-30 Champagne Fever @ EW (probably start off with a ?5 EW) 2-05 Simonsig @ Win (No value but my biggie for the day, ?enough to cover if all other bets lose, say ?50) 2-40 Fruity O?Rooney and/or Our Mick @ EW 3-20 Not planning to bet on this race either, but may be tempted if previous bets do well and back Grandouet @ EW 4-00 Not planning to bet on this race and won't be tempted. 4-40 Une Artiste @ EW (probably ?5 EW) 5-15 Not planning to bet on this race and won't be tempted

It's the fourth and final set of Champions League games this week. Late Late Latecomers still have a good chance to qualify for the knock-out stage... Tuesday 12th March 2013 Barcelona V AC Milan (agg 0-2) Schalke 04 V Galatasaray (agg 1-1) Wednesday 13th March 2013 Bayern Munich V Arsenal (agg 3-1) Malaga V FC Porto (agg 0-1) For the quarter final draw there are no numbered balls, so the 8 teams that qualify will be placed alphabetically and given the numbers 1-8 e.g. AC Milan = No. 1...Schalke No. 8. The top 8 players will then be allocated their corresponding team, e.g. 1st = AC Milan...8th = Schalke. So if in the actual CL draw, Milan play Schalke, the player who finished top will go head to head with the player who finished eighth, and so on...

NB. The maxxi only applies in the League, not the Cups...

KK, every meglomaniac multi-millionaire needs their own building a la Trump Tower. With $10.5 million you're not exactly going to get The Shard, so how about sticking a pointy roof on Dawson Heights and renaming it The Shrapnel...

Gotta love Bill Bailey...

How about a large 'Welcome to East Dulwich' sign at each end of Lordship Lane, accompanied with our civic emblem 'The Cat', just like Catford precinct...naturally, The Cat's arse will be shown on the Forest Hill side of LL http://citynoise.org/upload/12696.jpg

SC, if someone forgets to post their predictions (illness/holiday etc) they get an automatic 5 pts score. It was meant as an incentive for those who did miss a week or two to keep on playing i.e. they didn't fall too far behind and give up. It also meant late comers could join in and still have a half decent chance. At the time it was introduced it was a score that was just below the average weekly score, the intention being that there wouldn't be a benefit for gamesmanship i.e. deliberately not making predictions (last weekend being an exception). It was given the nickname maxxi because that was maxxi's average score at the time. If we do this again next season the maxxi will be revisited, it might even get abolished if we have a good turn out on the opening weekend...

Sorry LG, I should've been clearer. SC knocked you out in the head to head, 4pts to 1pt I knocked out RC, 2pts to 1pt...

yep, including Fergie Time...

FA Cup scores... SC - 1 Correct Result + 1 Correct Score = 4 pts RD - 2 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 2 pts EP - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt JL - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt LG - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt Mx - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt OT - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt RC - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt SC & RD have qualified for the semi's, balls 1 & 2 respectively. The draw for the semi's was 1 v 4 and 2 v 3. The other two places are up for grabs, so everyone else will have to predict the scores of the two replays; Blackburn v Millwall is this Wednesday, Chelsea v Man Utd tbc Blackburn v Millwall Chelsea v Man Utd

yes, you got 7 Dave, 2nd in the list where ?? is...I usually copy and paste the previous week's results and amend accordingly, so I don't have to type out everything again, but obviously I didn't change ?? to DR, sorry...the table is correct though

Week 25 results... RC - 2 Correct Results + 2 Correct Scores = 8 pts ?? - 1 Correct Result + 2 Correct Scores = 7 pts Mx - 1 Correct Result + 2 Correct Scores = 7 pts OT - 1 Correct Result + 2 Correct Scores = 7 pts JL - 3 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 6 pts ?? - 2 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 5 pts AM - 5 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 5 pts LG - 5 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 5 pts EP - Played a Maxxi = 5 pts MM - Played a Maxxi = 5 pts PD - Played a Maxxi = 5 pts RD - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts SC - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pt

They are definitely an enigma...4-3 to Everton

Scotland 15 Wales 18 Ireland 18 France 15 England 34 Italy 6

ITV have been on the phone wanting exclusive rights to the big local derby, Otta v Jah, but I warned them it could get messy, especially around throwing out time...

You're not wrong SJ, but unless he continues to be benched, I tend to side with Otta's point about the press creating mischief. Rooney's not a natural conditioned athlete like a Giggs or Ronaldo. He missed a couple of games with 'flu before the weekend game against Norwich, and looked like he needed more game time. In the past I think Fergie would've played an 80% fit Rooney, but with the promising development and maturing of Welbeck and Cleverly he didn't need to take that risk. It will be interesting to see what team he puts out against Chelsea...

The EDF Predictor Cup 6th Round... Just to recap, these are the head to head's... SC v LG OT v JL Mx v EP RC v RD If both teams score the same number of points, any replayed game will act as a decider. If no replay or there is still a tie after the replay, then the most correct scores (previous rounds ignored) will decide who goes through. If it's still a tie, then the coin decides. For the semi-final draw, the numbers 1-4 will be used, and these numbers will be allocated to the 4 players that go through, with the player scoring the most points allocated No.1 etc. Again, if a tie, correct scores or a coin will decide. Saturday 9th March 2013 Everton V Wigan Man City V Barnsley Sunday 10th March 2013 Millwall V Blackburn Man Utd V Chelsea

It's a Double Bubble weekender, first off the League, Week 25 fixtures... Saturday 9th March 2013 Norwich V Southampton QPR V Sunderland Reading V Aston Villa West Brom V Swansea Sunday 10th March 2013 Newcastle V Stoke Liverpool V Tottenham ETA: It was a very close call, but this week's Coupon Buster is Spurs to win at Liverpool...very tempting.

Champions League Last 16, Round 3 scores... LG - 1 Correct Result + 2 Correct Scores = 7 pts RC - 1 Correct Result + 2 Correct Scores = 7 pts MM - 2 Correct Results + 1 Correct Score = 5 pts JL - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts Mx - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts OT - 3 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 3 pts AM - 2 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 2 pts RD - 2 Correct Results + 0 Correct Scores = 2 pts SC - 1 Correct Result + 0 Correct Scores = 1 pts RC the big mover this week, probably done enough to qualify. Meanwhile at the bottom, the League frontrunners are struggling to come to terms with the intricacies of the European game...
