saint_stevo Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 dont get confirmation when i submit my prediction, that right?
Danish Saint Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Done, done, done, done, done........ and done!
Bailey Posted 3 August, 2009 Posted 3 August, 2009 Registered and have made my prediction for Millwall. Can't wait for the start of the new season now! Here's hoping for 3 points.
stevegrant Posted 4 August, 2009 Author Posted 4 August, 2009 dont get confirmation when i submit my prediction, that right? Correct. It'll take you straight back to a list of your predictions.
chrisobee Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Correct. It'll take you straight back to a list of your predictions. Amazingly it did !! Guess watching nothing happen for 13 hours was all worthwhile in the end though clearly my definition of "very shortly" is not the same as yours Mr Grant
stevegrant Posted 4 August, 2009 Author Posted 4 August, 2009 I'd finished it on the train yesterday morning, but the signal isn't strong enough for me to be able to upload all the code without it cutting out halfway through every time, so had to wait until I got home last night.

thorpie the sinner Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 My God, that was easy!!!! Ten out ten coming up!!! Wrong lol!!
rawspirit Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 I know I'm going to regret asking this question, but do you have to predict the scores on all the games showing now? or can you wait for the results of previous games?
stevegrant Posted 4 August, 2009 Author Posted 4 August, 2009 Entirely up to you. All of your predictions are updated in the database when you hit submit, so if you've left loads of them at 0-0 that's what'll go into the database. However, you can modify them at any time right up until kickoff.
ottery st mary Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Looking forward to a great season in more ways than one....I'm FEELING HOT. Many thanks Mr Grant for your hard work.

Hatch Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 10th so far. Going to push for a Europa league place

Northampton Saint Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Thanks for doing this again Steve - great to be able to predict so many in advance too so that at least if I forget I have still got the chance of scoring something with all my current 0-0 predictions!
chrisobee Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 10th so far. Going to push for a Europa league place I guess it depends if your football predictions are better than your horse racing tips says he who could not even find the winner in a one horse race!
chrisobee Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Thanks for doing this again Steve - great to be able to predict so many in advance too so that at least if I forget I have still got the chance of scoring something with all my current 0-0 predictions! Somehow I don't see 0-0 occuring too often, in fact a correct 0-0 prediction should score bonus points!
SuperMikey Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 I've got us down for 14 points from that lot (excluding a win at Northampton in the cup). If it actually comes true i'll be astonished!
NorthamSteve Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Looking forward to a great season in more ways than one....I'm FEELING HOT. Many thanks Mr Grant for your hard work. Wrong website....
ottery st mary Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Wrong website.... I have always felt this way about Saints and Granty:-&
chrisobee Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 I have always felt this way about Saints and Granty:-& Too much information TBH !
chrisobee Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 I'm 6th already! Lol, you must be pretty useless as you are down to 9th without a ball even being kicked
stevegrant Posted 4 August, 2009 Author Posted 4 August, 2009 what's the prize? Nothing at the moment, but if I find anything suitable over the course of the season, there may be a prize at the end.
saint_stevo Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 Nothing at the moment, but if I find anything suitable over the course of the season, there may be a prize at the end. Find?! cheapo
sad saints fan Posted 4 August, 2009 Posted 4 August, 2009 I have entered and predicted all wins. I may change this after saturday.
chrisobee Posted 5 August, 2009 Posted 5 August, 2009 Find?! cheapo Yes, I don't somehow think winning this will be worth anything more than bragging rights !
eelpie Posted 5 August, 2009 Posted 5 August, 2009 I've got us down for 14 points from that lot (excluding a win at Northampton in the cup). If it actually comes true i'll be astonished! I've signed up, but only forecast three games. As far as I can see ahead. Do we have to do the whole lot now?

saintwarwick Posted 7 August, 2009 Posted 7 August, 2009 I've got us down for 14 points from that lot (excluding a win at Northampton in the cup). If it actually comes true i'll be astonished! Well I've pessimistically gone for 24 points from 8 games
Hatch Posted 7 August, 2009 Posted 7 August, 2009 Well I've pessimistically gone for 24 points from 8 games I've gone for a rip roaring 9 points from our 1st 8 games.
lordswoodsaints Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 1 in 1. i rule Same here......it's a shame I can't do it at the bookies.
stevegrant Posted 9 August, 2009 Author Posted 9 August, 2009 Just the 33 people predicted 1-1 yesterday
RonManager Posted 9 August, 2009 Posted 9 August, 2009 Missed the first game in order to re-create the -10 scenario. Ultimate victory will be all the sweeter!!
chrisobee Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Just the 33 people predicted 1-1 yesterday I'm hoping at least in this league my policy of always predicting a win for Saints will pay off in the end !!
dubai_phil Posted 11 August, 2009 Posted 11 August, 2009 Now we've signed a striker I've switched all my predictions to 2-0 wins Either I'm a genius or I should easeup on the Aussie cab sav but not in time for tonight grr
stevegrant Posted 12 August, 2009 Author Posted 12 August, 2009 Yep, I've just run the script to update the scores 13 with a 100% record so far
lordswoodsaints Posted 12 August, 2009 Posted 12 August, 2009 4th....damn alphabetical order If only I has used my real name......Aaaaaaaaandy Ardvark:-)
