Results for this week: No sign of nuttal1991 for 2 weeks so he must have retired, Mark st1 didn't play this week either - I don't think I've seen him online for a while. Meanwhile, that Mark Lawrenson stormed up a few places by scoring 15 points, meanwhile Ianrauk quietly sneaked into the lead with 10 points.

(Note: I had a crash this week so I've just recovered the spreadsheet. It looks ok but there may be a couple of errors or figures missing. Let me know if you spot them. I've got a headache tonight so I'll give it a check tomorrow and get the next fixtures up.)

[QUOTE 2870494, member: 9609"]I am not understanding the points system here, out of 10 games this weekend I got

2 results absolutely correct,
5 I had the correct outcome but wrong amount of goals,
3 completely wrong,

and I only get 4 points ?[/quote]
I've just had a quick check and it looks correct to me. The discrepancy might be because you submitted predictions for the whole PL and we only predicted for 7 games. It looks like the 2 correct scores and one of the correct results games weren't on the list. I will have another look this evening because it's a bit early for me to be doing any accurate double checking. Meanwhile, have a check on the spreadsheet here to see whether I've made a mistake.
(The teams which don't appear on the list can be nominated, one at a time, on a first come first served basis in the gap between the end of the round and me getting the predictions up onto here - usually about a day long window.)

You predicted for the whole PL fixture list.
We only do selected games.

edit: As per Deptfordmarmoset's post above.

Hi Just spotted that you gave me 0 for West Brom - Newcastle (line 135) - I put 2-0, result 1-0.

If you like I can supply you a formula for calculating the scores, but I am a bit busy the next couple of days at least so no promises as to when

My apologies. The spreadsheet has been amended.

Aha, one of those if-or-and formulas! That would be great. I could simply add you as an editor to the Google one and you can add it when you've got time. If you PM me an email contact I can do that.
