Davefevs Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 @ten minutes of rough I know what you mean....although only a prediction rather than a bet. Having said that, each time I've let my head rule my heart and predicted a City loss, they've gone and got something....Middlesborough, Ipswich, Hull.

ExiledAjax Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 To paraphrase a famous speech that's kind of topical given the rockety and spacey type events of this morning. "There is no strife, no prejudice, no national conflict in the prediction league as yet. Its hazards are hostile to us all. Its conquest deserves the best of all mankind, and its opportunity for peaceful cooperation may never come again. But why, some say, the prediction league? Why choose this as our goal? And they may well ask, why climb the highest mountain? Why, bloody ages ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Cotterill play Freeman? We choose to do the prediction league! We choose to do the prediction league in this decade and do the other things, not because it it easy, but because it is hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one I intend to win." That's basically why I'm still here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedYoshi Posted December 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Right then. I'm off to see a Y5/6 production of Alice in Wonderland this evening, and I sincerely hope that I will emerge to find that the wonder has rubbed off on our red and white stars. Having said that, I can't really see us winning, but a draw would be wonderful enough. C'mon you beauties. DERBY COUNTY 2-2 BRISTOL CITY (2-1) 1st half Flint 17' - He'll be pumped from his winner on Saturday, and make the most of an early free-kick delivery from Pack or Freeman. Potentially then booked for his over-exuberant celebration. Weimann 37' - Derby will have virtually all the play after our goal, and will get their rewards with a clever through ball that splits our defence, allowing Weimann to delicately chip over Fielding and wheel away in delight. What a tosser. Martin 39' - Buoyed by their equaliser, they'll come straight down our end again, supply another perfect through ball, only this time Flint won't be having it so scythes down Ince as he's about to shoot. Flint gets a second booking, and Martin converts the penalty. 2nd half Wilbraham 68' - With our ten men battling well against the Derby onslaught, a rare break allows Bryan the time to pick out a peach of a cross, and Wilbraham attacks it like a man possessed. Slams into the back of the net, Wilbraham clattering into Grant in the process, forcing them into a goalkeeper swap. This doesn't allow them as many outfield changes, and they therefore fail to exploit their extra man as we resolutely hold onto the draw. At least one child throws up backstage, down the rabbit hole.

As I said, I'm keeping tabs on all the categories, so in the basic "result, scoreline, half-time" table you'd be about 11th at the mo, just so ya know. And didn't take it as criticism at all, you ragamuffin you, so no worries. Haha.. cheers @Major Isewater, and I'm as surprised as you @cynic. Oh and don't worry @Super, doesn't bother me at all - but I shan't be ignoring anyone, for that is not the #GOTIB15to16CPL way. Without such wonderful interjections, we would never have had @ExiledAjax's utterly inspired post, so for that it is more than worth it. I tip my hat to you, good sir. "Squire", if you will...
