***Spot the Ball - League Cup Semi-Finals - RESULTS NOW IN ***

[RalphCoatesComb]

A very tense start to the week with 6 images and a missing player to decide who reaches the League Cup Final.

Can Buxton be beaten by CnBtruntru?

Can Vinrogue overcome HunterST?

ENTRIES, via e-mail, to ralphcoatescomb at aol dot com

This will prevent tactical waiting until your opponent has played. The only other alternative that Spot came up with was EVERYONE SELECTS AT THE SAME TIME. Unfortunately, not really feasible.

Simply add a reply that your entry has been sent so that Spot can check the e-mail account... Tea

Some Muppet from Shadsworth has just put a Pony on Saxo at 3000/1 - Said the odds were too good to pass up

Was it one of them they show on telly when I am eating my lunch and there poor legs are giving way because of all the work the taxi drivers have made them do in that place that shall not be named in League 1

[CnBtruntru]

Done and Dusted.

[RalphCoatesComb]

Just one more Semi-Finalist (HunterST) to turn up now.

[Joe14]

Why are the games being played behind closed doors?? This has got "match fixing" written all over it!!!

[RalphCoatesComb]

Ha Ha Ha

Behind closed doors?? Everyone can see the images

[Buxtonclaret]

Match fixing?

I've just seen 'Arry calling his dog in the car park.
Hope Spot hadn't handed him that brown bag it was carrying....

[HunterST_BFC]

Here you go Ralph.
email sent.
Sorry to be last,
had to see a dog about a bone

[RalphCoatesComb]

Thanks Hunter

Will let you all know when I get home where I can access my e-mail.

RESULTS

Buxton 70 CnBtruntru 20

Vinrogue 20 HunterST 30

That makes a Buxton v HunterST final

Photo evidence to follow

The missing player was Defour. Only player to identify him was Buxton

Buxton scores 5 Direct Hits and a Near Miss AND identifies the missing player. I'd go and put £2 on the lottery if I were you !!!

[HunterST_BFC]

Well played Vinrogue.

Bleeping Heck Buxton - 70 points!!! Good shooting!
That def' makes me the underdog for the final.

(but not actually under dog... make that very clear to Spot!)

[RalphCoatesComb]

The 70 points scored by Buxton had me and Spot scurrying for the computer. Had we be "hacked" ?!

Buxton certainly has the measure of me and Spot.

He is now a very strong favourite for the final !

(but not actually under dog... make that very clear to Spot!)

Everybody is underdog to Buxton

In fact we could all join forces and and he'd STILL be the favourite

'...The missing player was Defour...'

mmmmm - I've said that for much of the season!

[Buxtonclaret]

5 on the nose!!

Heck of a shock. But a nice one!
That's a comeback from the awful showing in the league last week!


Thanks & well played, CnBtruntru.
One of those games when they all just went in for me.
Kind regards to my own family's beautiful Co Wexford.

[Buxtonclaret]

Just checked, Ralphy.
I'd 8 & 22 plus 6 as a star.
£4-00
So won £1-50 on the lottery too!

[Buxtonclaret]

'...The missing player was Defour...'

mmmmm - I've said that for much of the season!

That's why I picked him, Blue.

[vinrogue]

Good luck in the final to both and thanks for organising this bit of fun RalphC. I shall have my moment of reflection now similar to when Spurs did us in the 2nd leg and Liverpool in the semi too oh and Malcolm McDonald and Newcastle.........gutted

Congrats to both of you. Hunter has his work cut out in the final.

Come on Buxton share the programme you use, nobody can be that good

[Buxtonclaret]

Can tell you honestly, Firthy, hand on heart.
I've no 'program'.
Don't even own a PC! Don't want one. I'm boring and still rather like windows being the ones I see out of!
Just my phone and, two small, unremarkable android tabs!

Was shocked myself at 5 on the nose!
But hey!
Nice they went in.

I'll probably do a 'Leicester' next season!

[Firthy]

Was only joking about the program Buxton but it really is spooky how consistent you are. Maybe next season we'll give you a run for your money.

[CnBtruntru]

OMG congratulations Buxton as though the result was ever in doubt, love a peak in your crystal ball or just give me the Euro millions numbers for Friday on a postcard to ...............

If you don't win the Cup now you will be in trouble.
