More come in sand shoes

Soldiering on then ... Point a question: point per correct, you may play one joker (but are not obliged to do so): three if correct, minus one if wrong. 1. Will Oxford be back in a play-off spot by end of Tuesday's fixtures? 2. Will Oxford score two or more goals in the game? 3. Will Taylor score? 4...

Re: Plymsouls

Well that's fairly pathetic: Tom and Geoff fall at the second, I fall at the third, no-one finishes and entries evaporate. Shall we give this up?

Plymsouls

Better do this while I remember: it's a cascade

1. Will Oxford be 5th at the end of Saturday's fixtures?
2. Will Oxford get any points?
3. Will Oxford score?
4. Will Taylor score?
5. Will there be a red card?

TB: Oxford's share of possession, no repeats. If equidistant, larger % wins.

Tracked or what?

Your mission, should you chose to accept it: who will occupy 4th to 8th spots after Saturday's games and what will their goal differences be? One point for each correct position, one point for each correct goal difference. TB: total crowd, usual rules. Since the world now resorts to cut and paste: 4...

Re: Taming of the Shoes

As Boot setter, I declare your first answer invalid due to the lack of capitalisation.

The Rosencrantz and Guildernstern bid

1. Even
2. Even
3. Even
4. Even
5. Even

TB1: (for the record) 0.3125

TB2: 36

Taming of the Shoes

Oops, nearly forgot. A zero research boot. A new take on odds or evens (for our purposes, zero counts as even). (a) Oxford shots - odd or even? (b) Oxford goals - odd or even? (c) Oxford possession - odd or even? (d) Time of first substitution - odd or even? [subs in additional time in first half co...

Re: Joey's Varsity Match Football Boots

How are you going to sort that one out, then?! Tom placed on the unpleasant Smith before I did, I guess, so happy to defer to that.
