Edgar Lovells' brogues

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

1. Result. 1 point for correctly predicting Oxford win, 2 for draw, 3 for Hereford win.
2. Total goals in first half for both teams combined. 5 points for correctly predicting 0 goals, otherwise 1 point for each goal.
3. Same as 2. but for second half only.
4. Same as 2 and 3, but for total goals in match.
5. Total attendance 20 points for being within 1%, 4 points for being within 5%, 2 points for being within 10%, 1 point for being within 20%. 0 points for not getting within 20%.

TB1: Total of the shirt numbers of the goalscorers for both teams combined. If someone scores twice, their shirt number will be added in twice and so on. You may not predict a total that someone else has previously predicted. If there is still a tie, the higher number predicted wins.
Not sure why you need a different points score for question 1. Nor why there's a TB1, but no TB2...

Anyway,
1. Oxwin
2. 1
3. 1
4. 3
5. 3456

TB1: 18
In my view Oxford were favourite's to win the game, so predicting a Hereford win was more risky and thus deserving of more points if accurately predicted.

Thunderbird 1 was able to handle this disaster on its own, so TB2 wasn't required.

The correct scores were:

1. Ox win = 1 point.
2. 1 goal = 1 point.
3. 1 goal = 1 point.
4. 2 goals = 2 points.
5. 2,889 - 2,947 = 20 points, or 2,773 - 3,063 = 4 points, or 2,627 - 3,209 = 2 points, or 2,335 - 3,501 = 1 point

TB1 wasn't even needed Boris.

I make it wightyyellow the winner with 5 points.

Sorry Parky, my bad. For some reason although I worked out your score correctly, I accidentally read it as WYs.

Parky wins!! :lol:
