Let me know who's up for a World Cup Predictor game.

I think it will be based on the Champions League format, whereby all players make predictions for the group matches, and the leading 8 or 16 players (depending on how many players) will then go on to the head to head format...

Here we go, the final fixtures for the season, best of luck to everyone with a mathematical chance of winning...



Sunday 11th May 2014


Cardiff v Chelsea

Fulham v Crystal Palace

Hull v Everton

Liverpool v Newcastle

Man City v West Ham

Norwich v Arsenal

Southampton v Man Utd

Sunderland v Swansea

Tottenham v Aston Villa

West Brom v Stoke

Congratulations RC. Your correct score predictions were amazing.

Really pleased to have finished in 3rd place at first attempt.


Towards the end, I was just trying to stay ahead of you RD! :)


Thanks for organising this. It's been brill x

I agree that head to heads are more fun, and in keeping with the format of a cup competition, whereas PredictAddict's format for the World Cup is based on a league system. Doing both would work, use PA to submit predictions for the group matches, and then do our own head to heads in the last 16 or 8, depending on how many people join in. At the moment only yourself and LadyG have said yes, so I'm loathe to set anything up until we get at least a dozen takers, or else the head to heads just won't work...

The EDF Cup Final 2014...


starring El Pibe and maxxi.


PM me your predictions before kick off for Arsenal v Hull (score at 90mins).

If both players predict the same result without getting the correct score, the player with the prediction nearest to the actual score will win...

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
