Matt Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 Bloody Nora, Steve! Just glad to hear you're ok - no one knows how the scoring system really works so it'd be pandemonium if you didn't sort it out Arsenal 4 - 1 Everton Lukaku Cornish Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you were hit by someone under the influence Steve? Madness, hope you're back to 100% soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornish Steve Posted May 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 So you were hit by someone under the influence Steve? Madness, hope you're back to 100% soon. No. Around midnight, with no lights on, they pulled out right in front of me, and I hit their SUV at about 45 mph. In the split second I had, at least I was able to avoid hitting the driver's door head-on, otherwise I dread to think what might have been on my conscience. As it is, they appeared to suffer no obvious injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish Steve Posted May 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 Congratulations this week to aaron and Matt. Both predicted an Everton win with Barkley as our first scorer. In other news, aaron leads for the month of May, while MikeO has extended his lead for the season and continues to lead per prediction. Matt has now won eight of 37 predictions this season. Our predictions for the Watford game were average. We move on to the final game with several questions to be answered. Is 8 points enough for MikeO to claim victory for the season? Can AidanLewis score a perfect 10 and claim victory per prediction? Will aaron have made enough predictions for the season to be the surprise winner per prediction? Will Rubecula finish in the top third of the table? Will chalkpie rescue his season by once again asking his son to make his prediction? Stay tuned for the final exciting episode this time next week!
