If you wanted them back quick, you shouldn’t have made them hard!

Mine will include a complete guess in each of the three sets.

Well, I'm so sorry that your road to a second successive championship isn't paved with tap ins :lolol:

I’m not confident in the first game. One utter guess, leaves a score of 4 at best, and your boy Badger is all but certain to CARD me down one, too. Maybe i’ll Get lucky and he’ll pick one I’ve got wrong. Unlikely though!

A possibility, especially as you successfully carded HIM in the last section.

You do have until 7pm tomorrow, but as only 11 have been returned so far I thought a reminder in case any folk have been sidetracked.


Mine done and sent in. A five educated guesses, confident in matches 5&6, but some of what I think are the curve ball questions I knew. can only think of 1_league of Ireland team.

Just seven to come. Four from the main compo and three from the Merit League who seem just as keen. Quarter Finals should be known tomorrow then.

Anyone who stays in the competition goes into the final rankings for the next tournament (which could be like a seasonal divisional thing depending on what folk want).

I’ll stick up the hand for Gibraltar. One stadium, one hotel, no worries about venue neutrality or coronavirus isolation issues due to the homogeneity of the situation. Oh and did I mention we have monkeys too?!

And a runway with a main road over it.

Mine have now been sent in. Sorry for the slow response time, these were the toughest set yet.

There are one or two curve balls in there. But, looking at it, educated guesses could still return decent scores.

Folk must play their Shyster cards wisely. I was a bit surprised at how some of them were used last round.

A third of the players overall have 65% or over. That's about right. You're highest at 85%.

Does that include the match where I BEAT the best player in the domestic and international tournaments by getting MORE QUESTIONS CORRECT but was only awarded a DRAW?

You've never mentioned this before.

Let me guess - Poppies, Flora and the Irish champions? I haven’t got a clue on any of those so have also submitted three total guesses with zero confidence.

!

I knew the Poppies one, immediately. The Irish one I had to give a little thought, but fairly certain I have it right - helps that my oldest was still at Uni in Cork then, so we were following the league. Flora - amazed if ANYONE knows that.

I thought initially Flora was Malta on account of my Premier Manager 2 friendly arranging days but talked myself out of it and chose some former Soviet block country just because it sounds tinpot in that direction....
