Grey boots

Predictions as they were meant to be. Or not. Whatever.

But you asked for the score, not the result! Which is okay for draws but not wins (or losses!). Am I taking this too seriously? I suppose it's the pressure of being second in the league without a good result in weeks!

That's right and the first number in a score always denotes the home team score, unless you specify otherwise. :wink:

Not that it'll matter as we'll probably lose by several goals!!

I don't think any of the subs will be used by both sides. Conference rules don't allow it. But I'll go for 4 anyway.

UE event - some spends all match doing the maths to see if they have achieved an elusive boot point and miss a wonder goal from our debutant.

So I am the only one who got the score and points behind D&ampR right but I am now in a bizarre play-off with those who got the points behind D&ampR and number of subs right?

Will we get the away crowd in time for the winner to post up the Woking Boot or shall I claim it GY?

I wish I kept to easy questions now!

I make it that Boris, Matt D, Boogie and Hog each got 2 questions right.

On questions 3 and 5 I said if no one got them exactly right, then nearest would be regarded as having got the answer right. DLT got question 3 right by saying 4 minutes for the first goal so he gets that answer, but it was his only 1 correct.

No one got question 5 right, so the nearest is awarded that question. The correct answer was 152, so there were a couple of us got 149 as nearest correct, but again it made no difference as that was our only 1 correct.

So its a tie between the 4 mentioned above who each got 2 right, but Boogie was nearest on the away attendance tie breaker (630 per the official site), so the boot is yours Boogie.

When I saw the ball go in I was jumping up and down looking at my watch.

If only someone had scored a third goal.

Well done Boogie.

I think Junior might beg to differ when he sees this. 124 || Grebis (27) = 151. But I can't be arsed to check if he got anythign else right.
