Week 20 had six postponements and a few Cup surprises, making it a fairly low-scoring week. If you need advice on where to go on holiday this year, you will do well to ignore
@charscot's advice unless you plan skiing.
@charscot took four attempts to find games that were played as each change seemingly resulted in the new game being called off. Interestingly, most people who picked the postponed Northampton game originally changed it to the Southampton game. I suppose coming from North to South was logical, given the icy weather. However, the headliner-maker was
@Scott, who travelled to Premier League leader
@Sonicstud85's fortress and came away with a 2-1 Prediction Cup win. In the League, the cat that got the cream was, indeed,
@thecat, who scored a highly respectable 6 points.
@ecclesaddick,
@Dannoo_86,
@BertieB and
@Bedsaddick can also pat themselves on the back for a hard-earned 5 points. As for the Noughty Step, we are down to three Noughty Step avoiders, as
@charente addick will want to teach Arsenal how to take a penalty. Lots of stuff below - on this post, the Stat Bank and the Weekly Results, on the second post, the Cup replay scores and the draws for the 2nd Round of the Prediction Knock-Out Cup and the 1st Round of the less prestigious Johnstone Paint Prediction Cup. On the third post, you will find the League Tables. Cup games in the two draws take place this coming weekend, with replays the following week if needed.
In the Cup draws, there are no all-Premier League ties, but in the Johnstones Paint Prediction Cup, there might be some upsets as there are eight Premier League teams, most of which face non-League opposition. However, don't believe
@oohaahmortimer if you see a post that tells you
@oohaahmortimer v
@Sonicstud85 in the Johnstones Paint is a bigger game than any of the ties in the more serious competition.
Finally, thanks to the many who helped this week by simply reposting their revised predictions when games are postponed. This saves me a lot of time!
