Happy League 2021/22 Week 21 (of 38) - Deadline Boxing Day 15.00 20:28 - Dec 18 with 2331 viewsmfb_cufc

Week 20 results

BRISTOL CITY 2 HUDDERSFIELD TOWN 3

After ending a spell of 17 league matches without a win at home against Barnsley in October, City were chasing their fifth consecutive victory at Ashton Gate. But it was Huddersfield who secured their first away victory since September. Nobody got this spot-on, but 6 did have the outcome. 11 predicted this to end 1-1, in what was easily the weeks most predicted score.

MILLWALL v PRESTON NORTH END POSTPONED Due to Millwall players testing positive for Covid

AFC WIMBLEDON v PORTSMOUTH POSTPONED Due to Portsmouth players testing positive for Covid

GILLINGHAM v CREWE ALEXANDRA POSTPONED Due to Gillingham players testing positive for Covid

PORT VALE v EXETER CITY POSTPONED Due to Port Vale players testing positive for Covid

ROCHDALE 3 NEWPORT COUNTY 0
Rochdale continued their good form over Newport and have now beaten them in five successive home league games. Well done to Pinault_Noir for being the only one to have this spot-on, and another 6 got the outcome.

We were told there was a tidal wave of the Omicron variant infections on the way, but I don't think anybody expected football to be affected in such a big way so soon. With payers being ordered to take a daily test, there was always going to be more positive cases revealed, but the number is still shockingly high. I don't know what checks are done to confirm if all these postive cases are true, because being the cynical person I am, are clubs "doing a Sutton" and using a few positive Covid cases to get games called off because they have got a lot of injuries and suspensions.
The Major of London has declared a "major incident" due to the rapid spread of the Omicron variant in the capital, and with Christmas and New Year parties still to come, the future is looking bleak for football. The EFL chairman Rick Parry said there are no plans to have a circut breaker, because of the rise in cases, but there's talk of the government having a two-week lockdown after Christmas so maybe that will be taken out of our hands.
As for the Happy League, I feel we heading for a season similar to the one in 2019/20, and there will be weeks with no football. If this happens lost fixtures will be made up, and I hope to still have a season with 280 games.
This week we lost four games, and the two that were played almost produced unpredictable results. I say almost, because considering their relative league positions, Pinault_Noir pulled off one of the best predictions in this season, or any other, when he had the Rochdale 3-0 spot-on. He also had the Hudddersfield outcome, to make him the weeks top scorer with a very good 4 points. A special mention for unitedwhites and oxfcolu in being the only ones to have both outcomes.

Happy Midweek League Cup With Christmas coming, and far more important things to think about, a reminder that the next round of games are due to take place on Wednesday 29th December.

Happy Cup The Quarter-final draw and fixtures, can now be found on the separate Happy Cup thread. If you are reading this blueeagle, I have sent you a PM regarding one of the Happy Cup fixtures.

Champions League With only two games played this week, and not many points accrued, it is still Daniel who is in that final qualification place with his 76 points.

In the Premier With only 5 points achieved overall in this division, it is not surprising to find there is little change. In fact the only change has unitedwhites moving up two places into the final Super Cup place, and mfb_cufc going two places the other way.

In Division One The consistency this season from Pinault_Noir finally got its reward, and his top scoring performance took him up three places to the summit. The only other change in this league has oxfcolu moving up a place, after getting both outcomes.

THE TABLES (140 out of 280 played)
(Tie-breaker: Most 3 pointers, and then the first to post)

Noah I fear that even if I posted my scores after the fixture it would make little difference to my indifferent predictions at present!



Up the U's


For multiple successful seasons I have uniquely posted my scores before the fixtures. Because that required formatting the text after cutting and pasting it took me longer and I was more thoughtful. But my OCD for tidy columns simply isn't working. So taking a new broom, last chance to try new tactics in 2021 before the transfer window opens.

Stress levels currently far too high having been bought a giant (age 12+) Lego kit of the London Skyline by my daughter to amuse me during today given football is off and the pubs shut. Started last night, and I was a nervous, quivering wreck after the first 34 pages of the 118 page instruction manual. Requires far too much concentration to find the right piece amongst thousands of all different. How kids toys have changed since I were a lad. Have a good Xmas all!
