I thought I was the only disaster this time but I see the average points for the week is 30 so I guess everyone had a miserable week so far. Since this week has gone in a disastrous way I am saying what I have bet on the big game today afternoon, I have placed City to win.

I am 2-2 for Arsenal today.

Just wondering what you guys have on Liverpool vs Man City later...?  Personally I think it's gonna be a draw, maybe 2 - 2 or 1 - 1.  Both clubs could negate each other out but the game itself will def be good, fast paced paced and going end to end.

Anyway yeah...  Interested in what you guys got.  Thanks.

For me it was a disaster today, I did only 30 points with 7 matches.
 I hope not to lose too many positions this week!

Well I only got ten points so far. I expected many wouldn't do very well after I saw the scores. I narrowly missed out on a correct score in the Spurs game as I predicted 3-0. Hopefully I can reclaim some points on the last two games but I think they will both be difficult and could go any of the three ways but can see draws/very close games.

Just my luck to also get 30 points when everyone else seems to be doing just as badly. It does feel pretty shitty when you bet on teams like Chelsea to draw and they do, but you got the wrong score. The last round, I bet on 3 unlikely draws all at 1-1 and two ended up in scoreless draws. Chelsea, like the other big teams minus City, just can't seem to find the net against poorer opposition.

Only 30 points, so I'm going for broke again. 3-0 Liverpool and 1-1 on Man Utd - Stoke. I'll give Arsenal a 2-0 away victory. You're all welcome to follow my winning tips Wink

Holy f*ck another correct score for me ,hitting 200 points so far during the week. Don't know whats the top record is in our Bitcointalk league, I don't know if this is the record but clearly the most perfect week for me during the tournament. Freakin wonderful week.

Bloody hell, Supremo, what a way to get Bastard of the Week - and yeah I don't recall a 200 point week for anyone ever, so you're currently Golden Bastard. Well done, and see how high you climbed the ranks!

I got three correct scores in the near nineties, Crystal Palace goal on 81 minute, Arsenal goal on 90+ and Liverpool on 96 minutes from 3 games getting 120 points in the late minutes of the games. Only Man.City did their correct score line for me since in the seventies. Lol, I am know thinking and deceiving myself that I can also still have a go to the top spot, why not, dreaming is beautiful. Also great to know to hold the top record weekly during 22 weeks of Premier league, and I guess it will be a minimum of 210 points as I think Tottenham will win today.

That's the premier league for you! It's already statistically the league with the most goals scored during injury time (and in fact, if you take into account first half injury time, it does even better), so you can expect surprises almost every week. I'm really glad Liverpool seem to be recovering their knack for scoring late goals (instead of conceding them!) but you can almost count on the big teams like City and United to snatch up points in the last 10-15 minutes.

Dreaming is beautiful, and I hope you get top spot. Sorry about Spurs, I thought they'd win too Wink

wow, your performance this week shows that every moment, with skill and luck, can recover many points and positions in the standings.
I was 2-0 Leicester and 2-1 Chelsea but in both matches the result changed to 93' losing 70 points!

I got ten points on the draw. Pretty shitty week for me unless I can get a correct outcome later.

Yeah, I think that's the top score so far. Still one game to go tonight as well. Highest points I got was 170 I think.

I'll be sending out PMs to those who have expressed interest in the new pool most likely tomorrow so keep an eye out for that.

I did get Liverpool correct score this time and God I was happy at that 96 minute goal. It made me get 60 points so far and a correct result. My aim now is to be in the top 5 and not fighting for top spot (although still possible) and my aim is to make 60-70 points at least every week in order to achieve this.

Wow, you've already scored 160 points in this round and has recovered so many points from the first places!
Good score for me too, up to now, with 100 points.
Stephencurry is trying to recover the first place (only 10 points his gap from Hilarious)

Yes I got Southampton vs C.Palace correct score and I guess I am the only one here to think of  Southampton loss at home field. I also got Man.City correct score and all other games yesterday correct result. I am happy about this performance but still my aim is 60-70 points weekly which in the long run to the finish I am pretty sure I will be in top 5 to share a prize of the pool.

I thought there is no game on January 1,  Cry ...
6 games left on week 22...

Yeah, hopefully buwaytress got them in as well. 40 minutes to go till the first kick off.

I didn't, as was travelling right after I made that post, but actually am not too concerned - only 3 correct outcomes in the end for 30 points, so I think we won't need to make a fuss about that! Thick and fast games, I'm just really glad Liverpool pulled through and will now have a solid defender to rely on for the next game onwards.

Looks like I've really fallen down the table though! Even with 30 extra points, I'd still be in 9th place, almost 300 points off the top. Well done to everyone, the table keeps changing every week, so we all know we've got a chance with only 1 week of good results. Got my predictions in all the way til Spurs' game on Thursday.

I wouldn't worry about it. Most people seemed to do pretty badly this week looking at the table. Both me and StephenCurry only got 20 points and looks like half the players didn't even put their scores in (or just got no points haha). Liverpool screwed me over in the last minute of injury time for a correct score. Apart from the City and Tottenham games I think the others will all be pretty close so very hard to predict.
