Happy League 2019/20 Week 32 (of 38) - Deadline Sometime in 2020 (hopefully) 22:33 - Mar 7 with 1932 viewsmfb_cufc

Week 31 Results

BRISTOL CITY 1 FULHAM 1

It is now five games without a win for City after a late equaliser from Fulham. A decent 6 got this spot-on, and nobody had the outcome.

BIRMINGHAM 1 READING 3
Reading's brilliant comeback overturned a first-half deficit to end Birmingham's ten game unbeaten run. Nobody had this spot-on, and only concordman got the outcome. 24 predicted a win for Birmingham with 14 going for a 2-1 in what was the weeks most predicted score.

WIGAN 0 LUTON 0
Wigan had won their previous three games, but had to settle for a bore draw here. Nobody got this spot-on, and 4 had the outcome. The other 23 predicted a win for Wigan.

MK DONS 0 DONCASTER 1
Jacob Ramsey scored the only goal as Doncaster bring an end to MK Dons three game winning run. 4 had this spot-on, and a further 9 got the outcome.

SHREWSBURY 2 OXFORD UNITED 3
Oxford made it five wins in a row as they produced a fine comeback to beat 10-man Shrewsbury after trailing 2-0. Nobody got this spot-on, but 18 did have the outcome.

SOUTHEND 3 BRISTOL ROVERS 1
Despite a number of senior players still not being paid, Southend produced a committed display to end a run of six successive defeats. Again nobody had this spot-on, though 5 did get the outcome.

CHELTENHAM 0 PORT VALE 0
Cheltenham's five-match winning run was brought to an end with this bore draw. Well done to GOSBTS for being the only one to get this spot-on, and another 4 had the outcome. 21 predicted a win for Cheltenham.

CRAWLEY 3 OLDHAM 0
Crawley stretched their fine unbeaten home run to nine games with a convincing victory. Yet another game with no 3 pointer, but 16 did get the outcome.

NORTHAMPTON 1 MANSFIELD 2
10-man Northampton's play-off hopes suffered a setback when they were beaten by struggling Mansfield. Another game with no spot-on, and just noah4x4 had the outcome. 24 predicted a win for Northampton.

SWINDON 0 FOREST GREEN 2
Swindon surrendered top spot in League Two as they suffered their first home defeat since September. A final game this week with no spot-on, and just unitedwhites got the outcome. The other 26 predicted a win for Swindon.

The weeks fixtures started well with the lunchtime game at Bristol City producing a decent six 3 pointers, but after that it went rapidly downhill with the other nine games only achieving five more, and the 92 total points gave us by far the worst 10 game week of the season so far. On a day of shock results, at least the wins for Doncaster, Oxford and Crawley made sure nobody who turned up fired a blank. Well done to oxfcolu for picking 10 games that produced 7 without a spot-on. The eleven 3 pointers were shared out with eleven members getting one each. Only gerry_us of the eleven managed to get four outcomes, and he is the weeks top scorer with a decent 7 points.
That 1-1 draw at Bristol City was the 30th of the season for that score. It leads the way from 2-1 that has 26, and 1-0 with 23. Fourth is 0-1 that has been best for an away win with 21.

Happy Cup Congratulations to blueeagle and durham_exile on both reaching their first final.

In the Premier On such a low scoring week a very good 6 points, that included having the Doncaster 1-0 spot-on, has restored the noah4x4 lead back to 41 points again. With only 55 games left to the season his Liverpoolesque title is now all but confirmed. The race for the title maybe over but competition for the other Charity Shield spots continues to hot up with Sector4 reclaiming the second place he lost last week, and thrillseeker a point further back in the third spot he last held in Week 18. Another point away is last weeks second mfb_cufc, who has to settle for fourth this week. Then back in contention another point back is gerry_us after his top scoring effort. Then finally another point away in sixth is sevebalo that means 2nd to 6th are only separated by 4 points. At the bottom the likely relegation of eagledares has given Colukev every chance of achieving the great escape. A solid 5 points for TheHappyGooner will give them hope as well, in what they said would be the greatest escape ever.

In Division One The top two cemented their automatic spots by getting a useful 5 points each, with Blue4U2 achieving his with outcomes, and basher2010 having the Bristol City 1-1 spot-on on his way to those points. The play-off places remain the same as the previous week, with the only change being GOSBTS moving up a place. Having the Bristol City 1-1 spot-on helped Lewis_1 in the final play-off spot put a bit of daylight between him and the chasing pack. On such a tough week for point scoring the rest of the league had to rely on outcomes except oxfcolu, who was another to benefit from having the Bristol City 1-1 spot-on, and he moves up a place, in the only other change in this league. The amazing season for unitedwhites continues as another four outcomes this week means nobody in either division has more of them than him, but no 3 pointer for 54 games means he has less of them than anybody.

THE TABLES (225 out of 280 played)

No point Mick. It still will not bring him close enough to the pack.
Probably better to abandon the whole season.....

Only joking Noah Roll on the cricket season. They should just play the County Championship as that does not attract crowds of people....unlike 20/20

Sadly, I cannot see there being a cricket season in 2020. County Clubs have now introduced home working and ECB won't meet until there is something to discuss. Based on current advice (indefinite avoid social contact) there is nothing to discuss.

If the strategy is "Flattening the Sombrero" to help the NHS to cope and to allow time to manufacture more ventilators, the peak of Coronavirus (albeit lower), will probably extend from May to September. Only if we let the virus run rampant will it peak earlier. I might be a pessimist, and hope I am wrong, but I won't be rushing to sharpen my pencils.

EDIT: Around noon, ECB issued an advisory recommending clubs immediately cancel all cricket activity including pre-season training and practice.

All that appears certain is my chance to break all Happy League records looks over, except one, which is to be the first to retain the Premier title.

Unlike the EFL, I reckon at an appropriate time, it would be fair to declare the Happy League concluded and promotion and relegation stand as at that date given everybody has predicted the same number of fixtures.


noah, your chance to break all Happy League is most definitely still on. There are 55 games left to the season and I am determined they will all be played, even if it doesn't happen until next season. One thing is for certain THIS SEASON WILL NOT BE DECLARED VOID.

There will be a further update after the present suspension date of 3rd April is inevitably extended.
