For question 2, does a 100% record of defeats count or does it have to be wins ?

I make that 12 entries. I'll get them in a spreadsheet and hopefully post updated scores every now and then!

bspittles · **Posted:** 15 Aug 2011, 13:56

The answer to question one is 13, which puts me into an early lead :lol:

bspittles · **Posted:** 22 Aug 2011, 12:16

For question 2, we've now lost Leagues One and Two as well as the Conference. So four entries are out...

bspittles · **Posted:** 14 Sep 2011, 13:59

The answer to question two is... The Premier League.

bspittles · **Posted:** 28 Sep 2011, 12:28

The answer to question 3 is... 11. No-one got that right.

bspittles · **Posted:** 22 Dec 2011, 14:59

The answer to question four is December. Colbert, saintmark and chris2k_11 all got it right.

bspittles · **Posted:** 28 Dec 2011, 11:16

The answer to question five is +38, which no one got right.

bspittles · **Posted:** 19 Jan 2012, 01:30

With Brighton's penalty shoot-out victory, the answer to question six is 3rd which tadpole and I both predicted. Probably/hopefully a bit of a wait until question seven gets answered!

Colbert · **Posted:** 24 Jan 2012, 18:10

No idea how well I am doing in this but hopefully my random prediction skills hold up.

Cheers bspittles.
