Not sure if anyone else has created one of these on here before but thought i may give it a try. Basically, i will post a few fixtures of the upoming weekend and you have to predict the score. All fixtures will be from various English Non- League games. You get 3 points if you predict the correct outcome, for instance if you predict 1-1 and it finishes 2-2 you get 3 points. If you predict the right score, for instance you predict 1-1 and it finished 1-1 you get 5 points. So to start off, here are this weeks games: Boston Utd v AFC Telford (Blue Square North) Fleetwood Town v Whitby Town (Unibond Premier) Hampton & Richmond v Basingstoke (Blue Square South) Harrogate Town v Stalybridge (Blue Square North) Lincoln United v Hednesford Town (Unibond Premier) Weston-S-Mare v Welling (Blue Square South)

Ooh wonderful idea. Yes, we used to have one of these on here, but I languished in mid-table for most of it (admittedly upper mid-table, but often that was because other people failed to predict!)
I can't allow myself to do it right now because I'm supposed to be writing an essay, but I shall certainly come back to it later. I like these games. I always predict with my gut feeling, which never has anything to do with form or current issues, and I always do better than chance ;D

Being a robot, I may have an unfair advantage or it may be a major hinderance due to my lack of human intuition, we shall see! > Boston 2-1 Telford Fleetwood 2-0 Whitby Hampton & Richmond 2-2 Basingstoke Harrogate 0-1 Stalybridge Lincoln Utd 1-0 Hednesford Weston Super Mare 1-0 Welling > stop

I never actually got around to adding up the final scores last season before eventually packing it in altogether, leading up to that final week however I'd been 10 points clear at the top. Of the 17 people invovled Coops was 5th, Amber & Daza were joint 7th.
Anyway - my predictions:
Boston Utd 0-1 AFC Telford Fleetwood Town 2-0 Whitby Town Hampton & Richmond 3-1 Basingstoke Harrogate Town 2-2 Stalybridge Lincoln United 2-1 Hednesford Town Weston-S-Mare 0-1 Welling

I have not tried this before - but there's always a first time! Boston Utd v AFC Telford 0-1 Fleetwood Town v Whitby Town 1-0 Hampton & Richmond v Basingstoke 2-1 Harrogate Town v Stalybridge 2-2 Lincoln United v Hednesford Town 2-2 Weston-S-Mare v Welling - Will be postponed, but not until around 13:30 on Saturday - just after the ref has paddled a hastily provided canoe around the centre circle! Or; 0-2 There is a precedent for this. Without there being the need for a canoe.

You had enough time to dash off a couple of paragraphs, but not enough to type 10 digits (11 if H&RB score more than ten goals, obviously! How much analysis, computer modelling and forensic examination do you need, you gurt great stat-tart?! Anyway. The results from the Supercomputer have just been beamed through from Silicon Valley: Boston Utd v AFC Telford (Blue Square North) 1-3Fleetwood Town v Whitby Town (Unibond Premier) 3-0Hampton & Richmond v Basingstoke (Blue Square South) 3-0Harrogate Town v Stalybridge (Blue Square North) 1-0Lincoln United v Hednesford Town (Unibond Premier) 0-1Weston-S-Mare v Welling (Blue Square South) 1-0
