Apologies,

Head hasn't been with it the last few weeks and I've completely forgot to post in this and the NFL predictions.

I'll have a look tomorrow whilst I'm at home and get my picks sorted once I've checked how football has been going.

HOW MANY???

Ha, I get it. If I randomly drop a treble round or ask for picks a fortnight ahead of time at any other point in the season then call me out, but this was the best way to give us all a bit of a break without missing a weekend matchday. I did wonder whether to include the Boxing Day games but as you can tell by the fact this is a double post, I'd have missed them and so would two others – while Stinky would've got them in with just seconds to spare... though he did simply fail to make guesses for week 20A which I unfortunately didn't spot until well after the fact, sorry.

There'll be a "bumper round" later this month and on the final day, plus the usual double at Easter but the rest of the rounds should be normal except for the odd FPL round and occasional D2D. There were no "wildcard" fixtures this time out either (because calculating the scores is complicated enough) but those should be back up to and including the penultimate round from now on. 

Anyway, happy New Year all. The final scores went into the first post this past Sunday night and the table has been updated – three lots of results requires more concentration than usual for my old foggy brain, so do let me know ASAP if you think I've made an error with your total. Everyone got at least one exact scoreline, and everybody who picked a full set of 30 made it into double figures.

Tilde still leads but by only a dozen over ultimo, though it's top scorer MVP RULZ who really plays himself into contention. Meanwhile lower down the standings, Bent Wookie moves above Chutney Spoon, while unlikely champion Rory slips to joint bottom alongside Vegeta. 

Among the best outcomes were victories for Man City, Notts County, Walsall, Brentford, Reading, Forest Green, the Canaries, the Blades, Harrogate Town and Atlético Madrid plus draws in Dingwall and at Selhurst and Edgeley Parks. Less helpful results included reverses for Aberdeen, Celtic, Bolton, Grimsby, Oldham and York as well as Liverpool and Leeds' failures to win at home. The rest of the matches produced a mixed bag of guesses. 

The next card will be up at the top of the thread shortly, featuring a special second-chance intermediate round for one "eliminated" duo in the FLP Cup and a nice exotic visit to a league abroad so we can escape the January blues...
