PREDICTIONS LEAGUE: Coventry results
2:54pm Tuesday 16th October 2012 in Sport
"Dear all, .
Well that was a question I couldn't have dreamt up….like everyone I'm in shock but on behalf of all the Predictions League posters I would like to say a HUGE!!! Thank You to Mr Jeremy Wray for all his time, endeavour, patience and support of the team we all love. Mr Wray!!…we can only wish you well for the future, don't stray too far and you have the thoughts, wishes and support of every true Town supporter going with you.
.
I'm a little bit nervous of where the new appointment is taking us as and after reading his "CV" (so to speak) and checking up further, wherever possible, it seems that money from further afield has a extremely likely lead in the betting stakes for the future ownership of STFC….no hard facts but most people will already know the answer is 4….just depends in which language it is to be written….Hope I'm wrong.
.
Anyway back to the one reliable constant….and that is that I changed my mind at the last minute and YEP!!…I threw away a 7pt answer of 2-2 for a 3-1 win….heart ruling head again. Still a cracking match for the neutral and my guest was taken by surprise at the half-time score but enjoyed the game thoroughly and 2-2 was ok to settle for after losing Navarro.
.
Answers for Saturday:.
1) Correct Score: Swindon Town 2 - 2 Coventry City.
2) Total Attendance: 9,808.
3) 1st STFC Goalscorer: Roberts 77mins.
4) Corners: 7.
5) 1st Sub: 51mins.
---.
A) Away Fans: 1,059.
B) Total Shots on Target: 10.
C) 1st STFC Card: McEverley.
.
All the detailed results will get posted on here asap after this thread is live….and after I've picked my chin up off the floor.
.
Cheers all, SAPFanSTFC."

I was just checking my predictions last Sat post match, to see how far out I was again!!. when I saw that you dear SAP, had indeed been rewarded for your pessemistic thoughts, I thought - bugg3r, how many else went for 2-2?
Then I saw your second post, correcting your preductions.
Never change a gut feeling my friend .... (quiet chuckle to myself)
---.
Made my day that did - heart over-ruling head! :-)
===.
I'll be adding the results today - got distracted by work sadly.

* MAN OF THE MATCH - 10pts!! **.
---.
** -- Norfolk 69er -- **.
---.
Well done for that one!!
===.
1) Correct Score: Swindon Town 2 - 2 Coventry City.
Two posters didn’t change their predictions unlike me and match the 2-2 win for 7pts:
CraftyPig
Norfolk 69er.
---.
Three more predicted a draw and get 3pts:
Inept and crass
Macca.y
Mustard Red.
---.
31 Predictors went for 2 goals to be scored by Swindon or Coventry and get 2pts but as per last week I'm not going to list them here.
===.
2) Attendance: 9,808.
Surprisingly not many got really close to the attendance with the nearest being a bit of a lone ranger who got within 100 of the correct attendance for 3pts:
Rebel_Phish.
---.
Ten get 1pt for being wihtin 250:
Airframe-dtm
Devon Red
Jedthered
Nestor
Okus Road
Oldhamred
Oxon-Red
SN1
Steve. Brentford
STFCDaveT.
===.
3) Goalscorer and Goal Time: Roberts 77mins.
No-one got the scorer correct and being honest no-one was really close to the goal time...the nearest for a bonus point being:
Devon Red (62mins).
===.
4. Corners: 7.
To carry on the thin-on-the-ground theme, only one poster got this correct for 2pts:
Scollenstfc.
===.
5) Sub Time: 51mins.
This bucked the recent trend and again no-one nailed it for the 3pts. The nearest being one person either side who both get a bonus point:
BillyLucas4me (52)
Macca.y (50).
===.
A) Away Fans: 1,059.
Thankfully a healthier points haul here, although I'm back to my Norwegian / UK Eurovision scores, with two predictions
within 50 so both get 5pts:
Nestor
Scollenstfc.
---.
Two poster get 3pts for being within 100:
Farteaboy
Norfolk 69er.
---.
...and thirteen were all within 250 for a 1pt bonus:
CraftyPig
DarrenSTFCRomain
Dickieo
Guyswonga
Jacobstfc
JC Pontefract
Mustard Red
NewburyMike
NewburySandy
Old Stager, Hilperton
Redgollum
Roy Carter
Tifosi.
===.
B) Total Shots on Target: 10.
Seven got this correct for a point:
Jacobstfc
Mustard Red
NewburyMike
Oxon-Red
Roy Carter
SN1
STFCDaveT.
===.
C) 1st STFC Card: McEverley.
Nine posters went for J-Mac and get a point for their skill and judgement:
Farteaboy
Inept and crass
Louiscassius
Nestor
Oz Ashes
Rhs Boydy
Roy Carter
STFCDaveT
Wroughtonred.
===.
Well done to all and the up to date league tables will be out a little later this morning....Stokestfc
's sprint last week has taken it out of them and faltered this week (still got more than me) but has anyone else managed to close the gap on Newburymike!?

Well done on keeping the league going here, especially after 606
Point of order though, I changed my prediction v Coventry, and i believe i was only 27 people out with my amended prediction on our attendance, and i think i should have gotten more points????

Dear all,
.
Well NewburyMike eeks out a couple more points into a 10 point lead over last weeks record breaking Stokestfc.
...
In fact all of the top 5 stay as they were but Norfolk 69er climbs 8 Premier League places and into the last Europa League slot and 6th place.
---.
I think this is the first time there hasn't been any relegation from the Prenier league although Nestor storms up 13 places in the Championship into 2nd position behind Jacobstfc.
---
The other two big climbers were Scollenstfc and CraftyPig who move up to 10th and 20th in the Championship respectively.
---
Here are the league tables in full.

I'd picked up on the away fan change but missed the overall attendance change for some reason.

3pts added to your score which moves you up 1 place into 7th and onto 57pts.

Cheers.
