4) Constable first scorer - 9/2 £5

10) Oxford to win both halves - 11/2 £5

12) Oxford to win by exactly 2 goals - 6/1 £5

14) Oxford win to nil - 9/4 £5

Constable score first £5
Clucas score first £5
Draw £10

So, 3.51pm and I'm out.....tho no-one is guaranteed any returns yet - could an every entrant tie-breaker be on?

Given my omission of a tiebreaker, we have joint winners in Hog and Old Abingdonian:

Full results:

Hog/Old Abingdonian - £48.75
Me/Hoglette - £20
Geoff/Mooro/Ancient Colin - £0

So for an outlay of £140 we had a return of £137.50

Hog/Old Abingdonian - perhaps you could set a quiz with six questions and set three each?

Given next game is quite close (subject to postponements) let's not complicate, split the point, first one to set the next boot sets the next boot ....

Good plan AC and I rely on your merciful nature for forgiveness of my aberration.

In the event of a draw I thought the earlier poster wins ... :mrgreen:

Oh, and you know those dots you put at the end of a sentence when you leave something hanging (don't know what they're called) ... I think you've done too many!
