Looking to finish on a high ready to take the title next season.

Mansfield v Cambridge WIN

 

[Vanni]

Mansfield - Cambridge DRAW***, which will see me become Oakey's Predicta first ever CHAMPION. I mean no disrespect to my fellow competitors but it was kinda inevitable really Details of my open-top bus parade to follow shortly.

*** Oakey mate, I'm not too sure of my predicta so there's always a chance I'll change it Friday eve/Satdee morning. I'll let you know if I do. Ta ta!

[Vanni]

Yesssssssssssssssss!!!! Thing is I feel I have to thank Matt Green and his team mates for helping me out win this league. So here's a pic of, no not Green, but a rather good looking dog (I think, because I'm not one so don't know what dogs look for in one another) in a Mansfield scarf.

 

[djs]

Well done Vanni.
Thanks Oakey.
Mid table obscurity for me, that rings a bell somehow......

 

[PoolieTom]

This should be much easier to win next season when we are winning every week. Cheers Oakroader!

sounds like fun, but tell me why Vanni won when he was on -15 and Mowgli came second on -9, if its about points why did Mowgli not win?

I did wonder about that
Oakey i'm up for it to right the wrong of last season

 

[oakroader]

hi guys...
Vanni won because he had more correct predictas giving a higher correct percentage over the whole season..

 

[Gladders]

So what are points for then? Especially the double bubble thing?

 

[oakroader]

points will be used to decide the winner in the event of anyone having the same percentage/correct predictas during and at the end of the season...which take precedence

 

[djs]

I'm up for it again sir. I'm aiming for second place this season - I'm assuming that Vanni will win again - are there ANY of these games that he doesn't win?

 

[Gladders]

Sounds to me likes its one point for being right and zero if wrong. With some made up point system if a tie.

Shame as the 3 and -3 with a joker sounded like more fun.

 

[GTFCfish]

After my resounding success in the Euro 2016 predicta i will have a crack at this Oaky.
(Please tell me Christies Child is also entering to stop me being last again)!

 

[cufc17]

I'll give it a go again Oakey!

 

[Wiinotfit]

I'm in didn't do to bad in the euro one try and get revenge on vanni!

Okay, let's see if I can help out DJS, who is so inept at these kind of games that it beggars belief Mind you, the club he supports doesn't exactly help him either.

Plymouth vs Luton eh? Hmm, two sides widely expected to challenge this year, so both would be happy with a draw in the season's opener. You can thank me later

Re the points system, I actually thought I had no chance of winning this last season as I got all my double points predictions wrong (all 6 matches iirc) but tbf to Oakey, he had said that the number of correct predictas take precedence over points. Still, I'll leave it up to him and I'm ok if he wants to change the rules. After all he runs this thing so he should be the one to make up the rules. It's also just a game and not to be taken seriously

Now for my prediction (finally) - Camb - Barnet We always struggle when we play the Bees, and last year was no different. So this year should also be no different right? DRAW

Ta Oakey my good man

 

[Vanni]

Oh crap sorry Oakey I have just read your updated rules. Just the score and NOTHING ELSE

 

[djs]

Cheers for your kind words and helpful notes Vanni.
I take solace in the fact that I've seen us play at Cambridge three times, and we've won all three. Therefore, assuming that I get a ticket, I think that I'm safe in predicting another win on our visit in late August.
Oh, and we're going to win at Plymouth as well - four times I've seen us win there, against one defeat.

 

[Vanni]

No need to be so touchy djs. What I meant was Luton are so inconsistent - drop points to the struggling lower mid table sides (the so called easy games) but then take points in the tough games against the better sides. Tbh, I always get Luton's result wrong on this site's prediction league so I know how hard it is.
