PD, I will give you the benefit of the doubt that your rude posts were written because you actually thought my post was somehow a dig at you (goodness knows how). It wasn't. I had never noticed before a scenario where those on the same number of points were not listed alphabetically.


I now know the rule and will happily move on to something else in my sad petty little life. Begs the question can one happily move on anywhere in a sad life? Probably not. Sadly moving on doesn't sound right though.

To move sadly on might split an infinitive... which is sad.


And to say there is an element of luck is to cast a slur on my genius footballing nous viz this weeks results - the idea!


Just because it's true that any week I do well is sure to be one of unusual not to say silly results.


Yours,


Mystic max

I don't know if it's a reflection on the makers(?) of the game or what they think their players are like, but the 2nd tie-break rule is, after 'correct results' it goes to 'correct outcomes'. If points are equal and correct results are equal then correct outcomes must be...........

I thought you were using witchcraft or some such?

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
