Yesss. I've got one of my 5 a day.
Thanks to Rowls, really enjoyed that.
I can already sense my enjoyment will last into the evening.
COME ON YOU CLARETS

Well played to everybody who took part but particular congratulations to RalphCoatesComb who scored point in 3 separate categories despite not apparently giving much thought to the process by guessing 10 for each item.

The results speak for themselves. Clearly we are in the company of Tinned Food Count genius. Well played RalphCoatesComb!

Zlatan · Post by **Zlatan** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:17 pm

Fantastic effort Rowls, onwards to more than 0 points tonight

huw.Y.WattfromWare · Post by **huw.Y.WattfromWare** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:20 pm

Superb count, Rowls. Even though I am currently pointless and pintless.
3 big points tonight after that.

Thank you Rowls.

Spot is on his way around with the brown envelope.

Don't open it!

He has a habit of eating the contents and replacing with Winalot biscuits that have passed their sell-by date.

Aclaret · Post by **Aclaret** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:31 pm

Ralph is gonna take some stopping, he's already got one hand on the Golden Measuring Jug !

Surely you could have added another 17 Units, Wilks?

Admiral, Do we have a volunteer for Sunday's FA Cup game?

Rowls · Post by **Rowls** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:33 pm

You're welcome RalphCoatesComb

Don't worry yourself about the envelope. I now accept bribes by balance transfer.

Eloise Laws · Post by **Eloise Laws** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:35 pm

Could I please ask why I see 1 point on the spreadsheet for myself....? yet it is not added into my previous total
I am new to joining in this thread and not up to speed with the scoring

Fantastic count by the way, love the assorted variety

Hi Eloise!

Sorry I should have amended that before I took the screenshot. Your guess in the Cherries category was only one off and was in line to win you a point until RalphCoatesComb's late entry.

Blame him, not me. ;P

Eloise Laws · Post by **Eloise Laws** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 7:41 pm

Thank you for the explanation. For myself, the fun is entering, points are secondary.
Until next time .....

Sorry that was a slip of the tongue.

I mean, it was an autocorrect thingy.

Look, I'm dictating this, right?

I clearly meant to say 'well played, everything appears to above board, and I've never seen that man before in my life, officer.'

There. That should fix things. *winks*

That's better. Careless talk costs lives, unless you're BFS

You are the man !

Hahahaha!

We all do our part as supporters but I can't take the credit. Credit goes to Ashley Barnes, Sean Dyche and all the players and staff.

Oh go on, I'll take a little bit of the credit

Oh my word.

WHAT. A. NIGHT.

I can't stop grinning!!!

I'm going to the Supermarket tomorrow to buy 12 tins of Princes mixed berries

Fantastic work from the team tonight - counters and players alike.

CharlieinNewMexico · Post by **CharlieinNewMexico** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 3:39 am

Well done everyone! Obviously a more fruitful (*berry *currant) plan vis a vis Clarets points appears to be me not entering and even not watching the game in preference of that work thing because I had pretty much given up with the last performances! Oh depression ye bitter, yet flirtatious child

Redbeard · Post by **Redbeard** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 3:40 pm

Not so, Charlie. Yet we might have won two-nil had you and a few more absent Counters done your duty...

Redbeard · Post by **Redbeard** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 3:55 pm

So who is going to take on the Fulham Count?

Are you still wanting it, Ralph?

Absolutely gutted...My first missed food count of the season.

Redbeard · Post by **Redbeard** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 8:53 pm

Now come on, Ralph: you know the Count wouldn't work if Officiators were forced to perform...

(Just tell him there'll be no walkies for a week if he doesn't)

Redbeard · Post by **Redbeard** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 8:59 pm

Longsider, let's just hope it was also your last absence of the season.

Not sure if Ralph is a yes but I’m available if needed, Sir.

Longsider · Post by **Longsider** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 9:48 pm

I've got a tin of hotdogs but it says ten on the label, so it might be a bit easy.

Aclaret · Post by **Aclaret** » Fri Jan 22, 2021 9:50 pm

Come on counters & estimaters , we're on a roll keep it going, we all love mixed berries.
