Calling all Guesstinmaters.

Here is the Penultimate Food Count for 23/24 ...
For Saturdays match against Tottenham Hotspur Away, I present you with a 540g Tin of SPUDS from Morrisons.

Sort of apt really SPUDS for Spurs.
10 points available for number of SPUDS.
10 points available for amount of SPUD juice.

As with most counts if nobody correct then the nearest guesstinmater will get 5 points.

I will not take my Counters 3 points on this count.....

Happy Guesstimating

Well I'll get my incorrect guess in early this time.

Spud u likes: 22
Water: 182

Up the root veg

Spuds 29
juice 180 ml

An excellent choice Bosscat.

I sez 27 spuds in 177 ml watery jooooose.

Thanks for doing the count. Hopefully results will go our way this weekend to give us an exciting finale to what has been a disappointing season. Up the mighty clarets, come what may.

36 spuds

Perhaps I should have done a multi choice to allow higher scoring to give you lot some hope


Nahhhhhh .

I wanna win the "tin on the plinth"

Hmmmmm .........so we have a 540g tin of potatoes and a drained weight of 345g. This means there is 540g - 345g = 195g of watter, which means by my reckoning watter is approx 1g to 1ml. As Eloise points out, potatoes are tricky.......are they big or little. Do we use Pi for this equation? ........mmmmmmm meat and potato pie

Errrmmm oh.....

38 pots
195 ml of potato pee

you have to consider and adjust for juice adhering to your spuds on removal from the cavity

41 spudlings

190ml water

The ritual opening of the tin will commence precisely at 2pm tomorrow, Saturday 11th of May.
So the last guesstinmates allowed will be @ 1.59pm tomorrow.

Any guesstinmates after this time will be void.

Hi from the tiny Greek island of Halki.
My guess is 36 potatoes and 175 juice.

19 potato spud pieces
138 ml of juice

3 points for the mighty Clarets!

Thanks for doing the count Boss!
