Portfolio selection strategy: pick any three of the following: highest end wealth wins.

(1) Constable scores? £30 for each of his goals
(2) Smalley scores?? £45 for each of his goals
(3) We'll be 11 points away from an automatic promotion slot: £15 if so
(4) Possession counts: £8 for every 1% in excess of 45%
(5) Seeing red: £25 for every red card in the match (either side)
(6) Paying the penalty: £30 for every penalty in the match (either side)
(7) Shot shy formula: N = (6 - Oxford shots on target) You get £12 * N if N is positive, zeo otherwise.

On current form, I'm scarcely tempted by (2), although I suppose it could be a lucky rebound...

(1)
(3)
(4)

TB 2456

Question: If a punter opts for (7), and N is negative, is the score deducted from the total?

Assume you mean Q7? Ah, good point, no, capped at zero ... I'll edit. However, as I type, you have picked FOUR not three options ...

Just logged in to see how I did and found I'd never actually got round to entering - note to self, don't log out and tell yourself you'll do it later, you never do!!

Anyway, I think I'd have gone for 1,4 & 7, so would have matched you on total, but would have put a higher attendance than you did, so as you were......
