D'OH! I'm so STOOPID! Here I am trying to hustle people to join, and I never did myself! What an idiot!

Well, I'm registered now. Hope I'm not too late...

Double D'oh!

Either way, I've posted my predictions in our forum. Anyone agree/disagree/want to fight like apes?

Trollheart · 08-26-2012, 05:29 PM

And now, just to show you should NEVER bet on my predictions...
(my predictions in normal type, actual result in bold)
Swansea to beat West Ham (maybe 3-0) Woohoo! Exactly right!
Everton to annihilate Villa (probalbly 3-0 too) Close! 3-1 to Everton
Man Utd take revenge on Fulham (4-0) Well, 3-2 to Utd; not as one-sided as I had expected
QPR beat Norwich narrowly (3-2) Actually drew 1-1
Southampton Wigan draw (1-1) Nah, Wigan beat them 2-0
Reading Wigan draw (0-0) Somehow I thought Wigan would play two games, at the same time, against two other clubs! Anyway, substitute Wigan here for Sunderland. But the game was abandoned due to a waterlogged pitch.
Spurs beat West Brom (2-1) Well, a 1-1 draw
Chelsea Newcastle could be a big scoring game, hard to call.Maybe
4-3 (though to who don't know) Meh, Newcastle never got a chance to get going. 2-0 to the Blues.
Stoke beat Arsenal (2-0) Nil-all very very boring (come back Robin we NEED you!)
Liverpool fall to Man City (4-1) Liverpool came back well, 2-2 draw

Okay well, I got SOME right (and some abysmally wrong...)

Y'know, we should all do this. I'm sure most/all of you are better at it than me...

Good man. Come on people. Don't leave this a sad, lonely, miserable effort.

Trollheart · 08-21-2012, 02:27 PM

OK well, for better or (more likely) worse, the White Cats are officially back after a three-year absence!

Hold down your applause...

I dont see your team in the league. Did you join it?

Double check you joined and if not, get signed up. If you miss the deadline (only just over an hour to go) then still join anyway. I joined a work league late and it still credited me the points as if I had made the deadline so I think it would register all of your points anyway.

First week is over but remember that the scoring doesn't start until the second. Plenty of time to submit your team and hopefully we can get a few more involved.

Trollheart · 08-21-2012, 05:34 AM

I used to enjoy this with the guys at work, so if there's still time then yes, the White Cats will make an unscheduled and dramatic return! Hey, someone's gotta prop up the bottom half of the table, yeah?

Mojo · 08-21-2012, 09:11 AM

Still plenty time. The deadline for week 2 is 25 August at 11:30am.
