Last week was a strange one for the Prediction League. Never
mind getting the correct score; for five of the fixtures, no one managed to get
the right result. Also, Palace’s draw with Spurs meant that 60 of the 61 people
predicting that game were cursing Palace on Sunday night.
There were significant differences by division too.
Predictions in the Premier League scored an average of 0.04 points per
prediction. In the Championship this rose to 0.75 per prediction, and in League
One, it was a fraction under 1 point per prediction.
All this statistical nonsense didn’t concern @seth plum who was this week’s superstar with a very healthy 7 points, which sees him on
the brink of Premier League status. Hopeful Harriet is still riding high as
Charlton and Millwall came up trumps this weekend while Pessimist Pete has sunk
into the National South where he quite frankly belongs.
This week's mini-statbankGraveyard prediction of the week: Everton 1 Chelsea 0 (0 correct scores, 0 correct results, 23 wrong predictions)
Easy peasy prediction of the week: Crewe Alexandra 2 Northampton Town 1 (7 correct scores, 4 correct results, 2 wrong predictions)
Unfancied fixture of the week: Glenavon 1 Cliftonville 1 (4 predictions - 0 correct scores, 0 correct results, 4 wrong predictions)

I am disciplined though.
I never predict a Charlton game, and will only predict games that are played on a Saturday afternoon at 3pm.
Sometimes that leaves me with only a choice of three.
Gutted I missed out last week, don't know how I forgot!
Need to keep my National League status to be entered into the cup draw, is that correct?
