Accrington Web - 2019/20 Prediction League; Game 23 v Blackpool FC (away)

Cashy Cashes In As Heads Mostly Rule Hearts

Well that was a happy Boxing Day wasn't it :D But did Sean forget he was wearing a bra when he ripped his shirt off :confused: Or did he just feel he hadn't got enough cards for Christmas :confused:

Whatever, this was a day when the faith was not kept in great abundance :(, only 9 stalwarts remaining loyal, while 10 clambered onto the fence and 6 made their way to the other side :rolleyes:. And out of all of us, only Cashy with his 1-0 prediction was still in with a realistic shout for a maxi as the game entered injury time and the ball entered the box bound for Sean's head :) and the far corner :):). Having just watched it 4 times I've no idea how it got through, but do I care? :thankya:

So, 5 points for Cashy and a leap up the table from 21st to 16th :). The Top Ten remained largely unchanged, with only AccyMad, Ossy Kid and Kiwi John backing the winners and only Accy Mad improving her placing, from 6th= to 5th at the expense of Revived Red.

Elsewhere, most of the other 3-point loyalists gained a place or two, with DaveinGermany making the biggest stride, from 22nd to 18th=. And the puzzle of the week :confused: was why Mab, who has forecast a 2-1 Stanley win every game this season (except after accepting a sweetie ;) from Wynonie, after which he went for a 5-0 win against Tranmere), chose this week to go 2-1 against us :eek:

And finally, a reminder that although my wife believes me to be incapable of making a mistake (:D), it's not entirely true, and last Saturday I stumbled :o and entered a score against the wrong player :eek:. As the relevant prediction was wrong in all respects :rolleyes:, this made absolutely no difference to the table except in the "Played" and "Lost" columns, though it did deprive one player of his 100% entry record :eek:. All has now been corrected (I hope) but the moral of the story is, if you care, check my workings each week!

So, roll on the Brewers who we'll now see twice in 4 weeks, first leg at the Wham tomorrow. Win this one, and we might just start 2020 ahead of Sunderland :):eek::) - and who'd have seen that as a possibility 13 years ago at Woking?

On Stanley On!!
