The Fat Lady's Hat

Post by Ancient Colin »

We'll finish with a no research cascade - odds or evens all the way

Taming the Shrews, yes or no? (draw = no)
Combined total of Craddock and Constable's goals: odd or even?
Oxford's final goal difference: odd or even?
Greenhous crowd = over 9000, yes or no?
Total number of fouls (both sides) - more than 21*, yes or no?

Tie break: away attendance (if announced)
Reserve tie break: total crowd

* that's the average for April, incidentally.

I take it this is for this game, or are you referring to their season total?
If it is for this game only, is zero odd or even?

(a) No, whole season
(b) Hence, it cannot be zero, can it? However, as our overall goal difference could be zero, then for the purpose of this competition, zero will be deemed even.

You should have had:

No Odd (31) Even (-2) No (8817) No (20) ... the crowd and fouls from the Shrews site as there didn't appear to be a report on ours.

Round 1: Yankee Clipper and Hoglette eliminated
Round 2: Boogie, Hog and Geoff eliminated
Round 3: none of the survivors got even so survive by default
Round 4: ah, hell, sorry folks ... only AC expected a sub 9k crowd.

Oh well. There's always next season ...

For the record, Sideshow was closest on TB1 (40 out), I was closest on TB2 (182 out).
