Are you putting a time up for final whistle? Or just giving everyone a day or two?

Ooops ! Well spotted. We normally allow until 18.00 Saturday but when everyone has selected, we will look at an evening fixture, or even a "live event" on Saturday or Sunday. Things are a little "fluid" at present

Have to say The Ralph Coates division lucks tough, no Buxton but a lot of the top players in there.

We’re happy with the split of the Divisions. It should make for an exciting End of Season series of Knockout games!

The Brian O'Neil has completed its fixtures but, we can't reveal the results until everyone, including MrTopTier, has submitted their selections. MrTopTier, can you hear me up there??

I think 48 hours per fixture is enough, otherwise it's going to be a very long season.

Results

Brian O'Neil

Ralph Coates

Please check your scores !

Some pretty impressive scores within those results but Match of the Day must be ClaretOTC1882 v Wile E Coyote who fought out a 5 - 5 draw !

Tables after one game are almost meaningless but they will be uploaded when we can sort out a little "glitch"

Well done everyone !

Next game starts 2pm 14.00 hours this Saturday. This will be a "LIVE" series of matches for those who can make it.

To play in a "Live" game, please express your interest by adding to this thread with "I'm In"

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Thu May 28, 2020 6:45 pm

"Glitch" in the Brian O'Neil been sorted

REMOVED

Glitch in the Ralph Coates has defeated me and Spot at present

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Thu May 28, 2020 6:47 pm

Ooooops !

Two lots of B.O.T. and BertieBeeHead and others ??

Obviously, the "Glitch" is still there

Bin Ont Turf · Post by **Bin Ont Turf** » Thu May 28, 2020 6:52 pm

Two Con's as well. He did warn us.

Bertiebeehead · Post by **Bertiebeehead** » Thu May 28, 2020 6:54 pm

0x0=0

So much for doubling up!

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Thu May 28, 2020 7:14 pm

I had prepared to play Dazzler but I need up against Goobs

Not that it made any difference as was the same score

Redbeard · Post by **Redbeard** » Thu May 28, 2020 7:15 pm

Well - still joint top - parrot on shoulder - despite all the cheats who've entered twice!

Unlucky, Brucey: but it was a tough draw for you, first game of the season.

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Thu May 28, 2020 8:07 pm

I think the real surprise was that only TWO managed to find the ball from THREE images.

That honour goes to Bobinho and JellyBelly who both scored direct hits for the first image.

You have to feel particularly sorry for those who lost, despite scoring 4 !

They should be something like now

Good start to the season, the fans already chanting for Europe! To keep the momentum going, I'm in for Saturday live series of games.

To add to the "Live" games info... BOTH players in a fixture will need to sign up in order for it to work.

This is going to be a first, arranging several live games at the same time, so please be patient

Rubstuds · Post by **Rubstuds** » Fri May 29, 2020 11:05 am

As joint leader of the Brian O'Neil, I can hardly not say I'm in.
