As I've already quailified for the group of death, this result is pretty irrelevent. A win and confidence booster is best I can hope for.

Thanks Spot and Ralph (I think?)

Unfortunately, we have had a few teams who managed to miss the bus. Let's hope that changes for the Champions League and Europa League

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:03 pm

The missing teams will mean a delayed Sports Pink this evening

jdrobbo · Post by **jdrobbo** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:06 pm

Ralph, may I make a suggestion that I hope Spot approves of? We use it in our Primary School football league system and it works well.

Going forward, I would offer a ‘free point’ just for fulfilling the fixture. Therefore no-shows get nothing but others are still rewarded.

It’d just mean two points for a draw, four points for a win and one point for a defeat, as long as you turn up!

Spot likes it but Slappy has been at the Hendrick's. Better if we ask him tomorrow, or even Friday

What do others think?

There have been some very distressing results and League positions.

Probably irrelevent. The B5 photo is the same as the first one posted, the photo with the ball in C3 is a different photo, the players positionings are slightly different.

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:46 pm

OK OK OK

Slappy wasn't the only one on the Hendrick's

Let's look at image 1 first

Go back to the original on PAGE 1

The Image, with scoring grid attached is correct and that is the way it was scored. The image shown without a grid is our "donor" image - it provides a change of background for the changes (If you understand Photoshop, you'll know what I mean.

Here is Image 1 (ORIGINAL) without a grid

Ooops! Mistake made by rushing the results out. Scores are accurate

bobinho · Post by **bobinho** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:49 pm

Have the europa league places been decided then rcc?

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:52 pm

Image 2 is exactly the same... rushing and revealed the wrong image without the scoring grid. You will see that the Originals (Page 1) match the scoring Grid

RalphCoatesComb · Post by **RalphCoatesComb** » Wed Apr 14, 2021 9:54 pm

I'd like to apologise but, the Pooch got it wrong, and Slappy is asleep on the sofa with an empty gin glass in his hand

Everything has been sorted but the Balls Up with the images, and some folk not turning up have put me back a little

Updates shortly

Ralph, many thanks to you and Spot for running an excellent competition. Sadly, Brian Easton peaked too early and ran out of gas towards the end. Three draws in the last five....one being a 0-0 against a no show, just about summed him up (not very good) and as such, I now need to decide whether or not to stick or twist for the Europa campaign? We’re not playing any games in Hamilton, are we?

Well done to all those who made the Champion’s League.

You were in with a shout, right up to the final whistle

Champions League Groups

Hopefully, no one is playing with themselves within these groupings

Mmmmmm after seeing my group I'm now convinced we should have had seedings. A big thankyou to Ralph and Spot been a great comp and really looking forward to the play offs but with some trepidation

Everything has been done in line with FIFA Regulations, as interpreted by Slap Better

Should be an interesting competition

Ralph & Spot can’t say enough what your doing with competition
Thank you for all the time and thought that’s gone into this
If you ever get over to LA dinner is on me

HunterST_BFC · Post by **HunterST_BFC** » Thu Apr 15, 2021 3:25 am

I demand a recount

I got At least 7 points not zero

I smell Slappy Doggy Poop in Envelopes being handed out.

I watched the game and goals were scored

Happy to accept the "Ruffs" final decision - but Spot clearly has had his head turned,

0 -0 declared, is a travesty to the integrity of STB

(I'm in jest

- score is not right though)
Thanks to the R&S for their massive efforts,,,

"IF" ? Although Clint Eastwood and friends have done an amazing job of advertising the U S of A, it is a little too dangerous for me - a little like Lower Darwen

Better if we meet in Rawtenstall, but thanks

Congrats to my bonny bird on her qualification for the big league.
