Weekend Prediction Game, Season 2022-2023

[Chris H]

My birthday is usually the 4th round of the fa cup I have zero expectations

To be fair, Wolves regularly avoid disappointing you by just not participating by then at all!!

It’s pretty decent of them really when you think about it
You probably not used to having games on yours

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Thanks for all your hard work and magnificent humour once again @The Wolf In The North . This thread is my favourite of the season, as it was last season.

Delighted for you that you won the 'Cumulative Most Correct Scores' Table, which is basically the equivalent to the Carabao Cup. Still, at least it's a trophy. At least I've qualified for the European Champions Prediction League and will be playing on a Tuesday/ Wednesday evening and not be a Thursday/Sunday ****er like you in the European Prediction Conference League.

Congratulations to @Blast tyrant on a worthy win. You ****ing ****er toss pot ****

Well done @Blast tyrant and thank you @The Wolf In The North

Nope, i think the 2003 play off final was the closest to my birthday with Wolves involved.

More generally, FA Cup finals, Champions League finals and play offs have been around it but very rarely do Wolves get the opportunity to disappoint me!!

 

[Miniwolf]

Congrats @Blast tyrant, enjoy the celebrations.

Weirdly I finished 9th in both the league and correct scores.. must be my lucky number !

 

[Evthewolf]

Well done to @Blast tyrant, great predictions.

Thanks @The Wolf In The North for your tireless efforts in putting this out every week. It really adds another interest to the weekend. Very pleased to share 4th with you, at my first attempt. Probably get relegated next year, after beginner’s luck.

 

[iamthenewno2]

A reasonable last week, after forgetting to put in the week before, and after all those weeks, all those statistics, all that effort, I was SO close, only 164 points in it, so damn close.

Good fun, thanks @The Wolf In The North

 

[Bigcheese]

Well played blast tyrant.
Thanks TWITN for a enjoyable thread.
Hopefully back with better predictions next season.

 

[Baboon]

Congratulations BT and many thanks TWITN. A great game, even if I'm not very good at it.

[The Wolf In The North]

Thank you all, once again, for making this such fun. In true Netflix style, The Weekend Prediction League has been renewed for a third season and will return in August (unless I get banned, obviously - you may have to keep Mutchy distracted for me), with a brand new "Goals Galore" sub-competition, because apparently I'm not quite spreadsheet-insane enough.

A Night With Mr Spoon In The Box Of Shame (Coming Soon To Select Niche Torrent Sites) - SuperGran

As if this season hasn’t been bad enough

 

[jrpb-3]

Thanks for doing this again @The Wolf In The North

I’m consistent at least 2 pts different from last season, and good to see I was joint winner of the best award (most correct scores in a week)

 

[Wolf in Wednesbury]

Yes I won the “most weekly awards” cup … on a par with the Leyland DAF

 

[Huge of Sharjah]

.

Many thanks for running this TWITN. More importantly, are there special cash prizes for anyone who finished in the top ten and failed to win any of the many many possible accolades and awards? (Asking for Giantwolf obviously.)

.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

The table above doesn't tell me what to do though, can we have an expected points total so I know whether I'm likely to finish higher next season?

 

[SuziQ]

An increase of points over last season but same kind of position. Evidently know where I'll be at the end of next season, though providing I score more than Mr Spoon I'll be happy!

 

[The Wolf In The North]

The table above doesn't tell me what to do though, can we have an expected points total so I know whether I'm likely to finish higher next season?

xS (expected Spoon) is 15ppw, so a standard human would ideally be looking at 20-21ppw minimum, which is 680-710 pts, mid-table. You were slightly above that, which ranks you as an above standard human, but to be an elite human you need to lower your xWW (expected Wolves Wins) because they're a bugger.

 

[S G Wolves]

Congratulations to Blast Tyrant. Well Done!!

Many thanks Wolf In The North for your hard efforts.

Blast Tyrant from one champion to another can I just say please wear the crown with dignity, respect and humility,

Enjoy your season in the limelight like the Villa because I'll be winning it back next season .

Many thanks for running this. It's been excellent.

That's where i have been going wrong, but i just cant predict us to lose, also most of my predictions are based on my dislike for cerain clubs and always predict there going to get stuffed.
Cant see that changing next season but will try a coarse of counselling before then, LOL

Once again thanks for running this fantastic competition and well done to all the winners,
