Welsh Rare Boot Wrecks 'em

Post by Ancient Colin »

It's a no-research cascade:

(a) Who goes through after the tie - (i) Rex; (ii) Ox; (iii) it's a draw?
(b) Oxford's 8, 9 and 10 score: (i) no goals; (ii) one goal; (iii) two or more goals;
(c) Total number of substitutions, both sides: (i) zero to three; (ii) four or five; (iii) all six;
(d) Time of first goal: (i) 0-23 minutes; (ii) 24-45 minutes; (iii) 45 minutes to 67 minutes; (iv) 68 minutes or later; (v) no goals at all.

TB Time of last goal in match (or specify none): nearest wins; if tied, latest wins; if duplicated earliest posted wins.

If there are no survivors at a question, all previous survivors more onto the next question.

No research? You mean people actually research other Boots?

And can you clarify whether 90+1, 90+2 etc all count as just 90? Not that I'm considering my tactics you understand, I'm just curious!!

Well, if you put 90 and someone else put 94 and the goal were scored in the 95th minute, I'd give it to "someone else" wouldn't I?

Only to get a ballpark for some answers - which doesn't alwasy help as the Attendance I was going to put for Gateshead would have won me the tie-break, but I looked at the other answers and changed it - aaargh!

On the face of it, this is simple, since only Old Abingdonian had Ox for a win. However, I did have a late but in time limit "extra board" entry from Hoglette which isn't totally clear ... but seems to imply an Ox win. But it's a bit garbled ... On round two OA and Hoglette are wrong ... on round three, both OA and Hoglette are right (although the latter is out of order) ... on round four, I breathe a huge sigh of relief and pack away my appeals procedures as Hoglette is out and OA nails it .... Old Abingdonian has the Boot!
