Hallo all, and welcome to this time-honoured rite by which we invoke mystical ethereal powers in aid of our team for their next match; in this case the away game at Southampton due to kick off at 12 noon tomorrow.

Your ritual participation in this ceremony should take the form of Estimates as to both the number of Food Units and the amount (in millilitres) of enveloping liquid contained in the Tin described in the above Thread title.

A full 24 hours will be allowed for your Entries, and the official Count Result will be posted during the remaining hour ahead of tomorrow's kick-off. As always, points will be awarded for the nearest Estimates received.

Good luck, everyone!

Hi red
29 seggies
170 joooooooooose

30 Segs
216 Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooossssssssssee

Thanks for the latest few Estimates.

But, Cabbage, 12 is already taken, so I have taken the liberty of giving you 11 instead. Could you please confirm your acceptance of this?

Only the numbers 10 and 31 remain now, though a single-figure effort might yet prove productive, as might a guess of over 32.

Still it seems that from this point I must begin to accept duplicate entries, at least for Units.

18 segments if duplicates are allowed?

168ml juice.

And a 2-1 win on the road for the mighty Clarets to guarantee survival.

Hope that's ok now RB.

You may share 18, Tiger, but not 170.

Please amend your joose.

Have now seen your amendment, and recorded 168.

Please change my juice estimate to 208 mls.

UTC

Here we go.

43 segments lurking in 157 mls of juice.

I sez 27 segmentations in 105 ml thick joooooooose
2 0 to the mighty clarets

31 segs
173 joose

A paltry 9 segments and 222 mls of citrusy hangover cure.
As I’ll experience in a couple of hours when we kick off.

Thanks for the three overnight Entries.

The only non-used Unit figure between 9 and 33 now is 10.

Duplicate Estimates are however being accepted.

UTC!!

15 segments
223ml goo

37 pieces (of eight)
163ml of juice

thanks for doing the count!

Happy Easter everyone!

Since Cabbage has not responded to my earlier message, I have reinstated his - or her - original Unit Estimate of 12.

Thus 11 is again without a taker.

Thanks to DD and CB for the latest Entries.

Already twice-taken meanwhile are 12, 15, 18, 27 and 32.
