No - thereās a tiebreak as well still donāt forget so it should end soon enough. If you canāt win outright then it gives everyone a chance to play again and people who missed the first round can enter this time.
Since weāve decided that the everyone is back in for the wednesday matches can you now reveal the people who finished joint 1st?
Iāll put up the scores later because I canāt remember them but Jugs and Juhniallio were top of the class.
wasnāt going to enter the debate on the tie break situation as i was assuming i had lost and therefore it wouldnāt affect me but now that i finished top i think itās fooking ridiculous that all those other coonts are let back in
You donāt really think you came top do you Jugs? I mean Scotland - Ukraine, nearly everyone called that right!
Thereās no way in hell that Jugs and Juhniallio tied top on Saturday. Iām off to do in-depth research of the various sides to ensure I win it again, like Saturday, but I wonāt be accepting the prize given my moderator status. Were it that our leader of state was so wary about accepting dig outs from friends.
Can we nominate a substitute First goalscorer if the original selection is a NR?
No. Not fair on those who entered already.
Man: Forget about the badge! When do we get the freakinā guns?!
Wiggum: Hey, I told you, you donāt get your gun until you tell me your name.
Man: Iāve had it up to here with your ārulesā!
Okay okay.

Iām with Jugs on this. Being a toptipster is debased by letting you random chance merchants back in with a shout. Both Jugs and I are obviously supremely talented and donāt bear our genius frivolously. Give the voucher to charity I say. There must be a poor pikey who might benefit from a tfk pair of boxers. Iknow not of any other compo which might be ruled so, apart from world cup on the greens. This smacks of an older bully boy kicking a ball as hard as humanly possible off a younger more skillful kids hand and screaming āpenos all round.ā

Bandage meant:
Waah, waah, mummy mummy it isnāt fair. I would have won but for my sore leg. They cheated. Make the pain go away mummy, wwaaaahhhh(this denotes a child crying as opposed to the sound many wexicans emit while breathing).
28 selections is a horrendous amount to have to call. Having said that I presume Jugs and I will sit proudly atop the list once more on Wednesday night and probably both get the tie breakers spot on. With that in mind I think Reidās goal will be a free kick of between 20-25 yards out which he pops over the wall. Itāll look great initially, but replays might suggest a better keeper could have got it. Job done
And the winner isā¦ Bandage with 16 (full results from the top 5 below).
Bandage has graciously agreed not to accept the prize so weāll go again. Bit too close to reorganise for this week so weāll go on next weekās fixtures which Iāll put up soon.

Bringing this back up to the top to remind people to enter.
Can anyone enter? What do you have to do, just predict 1/X/2, and then e-mail it or post it here?
Yeah anyone can enter. Send me a PM with 1/x/2 or the names or whatever.
Maybe this rollover thing wasnāt the greatest idea in retrospect:
3 way tie for the win between Larry, Juhniallio and Brian Tinnion. Tinnion didnāt do the tiebreaker and neither of the other two lads had the write result or outcome or anything.
