SF Predictio Results
Greetings amigos
The majority of points were again scored via predictions in relation to penalties (or lack of them) as we all struggled with predicting the scores. With such high-scoring semi-finals however, this is understandable. I couldn't find any predictions from either Mr Moore or Mr Luke, so if anyone has these, pass them on.
Moving onto the final, I would suggest that we keep the penalties prediction as it is - i.e. a correct prediction either way (pens or no pens) results in 2 points. Additionally, as we're in a situation in which 4 managers could win the tournament going into the last game, if managers wish to do so, I suggest they send their prediction for the final to current domestic champion Mr Crinnion, who can post them onto the blog once he has received all of them.
Any mistakes let me know, take it easy,
Danny

Predictio QF Results
Greetings amigos
After a surprising set of Quarter-Final results the table is pretty much as we were at the end of the group stage. Penalties points made up the majority of the scoring as we found it hard to correctly predict the score after 90 minutes. As he's in top spot with 3 games to go it's Mr O'Callaghan's to lose, however, the managers below him will be hoping they can produce some magic in the final stages of the tournament to take home the trophy.
For the semi-finals we will again have a penalties prediction, however, you have the following options (if anyone disagrees with this approach, let us know):
Correctly predict one game that goes to pens: 2 points.
Correctly predict neither of the games will go to pens: 3 points.
Correctly predict both of the games will go to pens: 3 points.
I suggest that you get more points for a prediction involving both games, but, as ever this is a democracy - let me know if you disagree.

Group Stage Round 3 Results
Greetings amigos
The final round of group games saw a mixed set of results for managers - Mr Luke's inconsistent tournament continued as he only scored 2 points and drops down to 5th place as a result. Mr O'Callaghan's steady performance goes on and he is the new tournament leader. As we enter the knock out phase it's still anyone's to win, especially with the introduction of penalties - Predictio veterans may recall the penalties wild card, in which you nominate a game per round that you think will go all the way to spot-kicks. Correctly predicting this will see you win 2 extra points (note: you don't have to predict that the game in question would be level after 90 minutes). Mark the game you consider will go to penalties with *.

Group Stage Round 2 Results
Greetings amigos
Round 2 of the group stage certainly belonged to one man - Mr Luke. After a slow start to the tournament which left him in last place after round 1, Theo notched a fantastic 4 spot-ons out of 8 games to leap frog the entire pack to go top of the table. Mr O'Callaghan and Mr Stewart-Jones both scored 6 points, whilst I managed 8 to join them on a total of 15 points, one off the lead. Mr Moore had a better round with 8 points, whilst Mr Soares and Mr Crinnion both scored 4 - Nick's amazing domestic spot-on form has yet to translate to the international stage as he awaits his first spot-on of the tournament.
Any mistakes let me know (I'll update the table on Monday, but see list opposite for current standings).

Group Stage Round 1 Results
Greetings amigos,
The first round of Euro 2008 saw some interesting results but a lack of high scoring games meant that no 5 point spot-ons were achieved. In fact, only the Spain v Russia game offered such an opportunity, but Fabregas' last minute goal denied a 5 pointer for myself (not that I'm bitter). Mr O'Callaghan and Mr Stewart-Jones lead the way at the first hurdle, with 2 spot-ons and 9 points apiece. Mr Soares and myself are below them on 7 points each, with Mr Moore, 07-08 champion Mr Crinnion and Mr Luke in the remaining places. It's early days, but Mr O'Callaghan and Mr Stewart-Jones will be happy with the starts they've made.
Any mistakes let me know.
Take it easy,
Danny

The first round of Euro 2008 saw some interesting results but a lack of high scoring games meant that no 5 point spot-ons were achieved. In fact, only the Spain v Russia game offered such an opportunity, but Fabregas' last minute goal denied a 5 pointer for myself (not that I'm bitter). Mr O'Callaghan and Mr Stewart-Jones lead the way at the first hurdle, with 2 spot-ons and 9 points apiece. Mr Soares and myself are below them on 7 points each, with Mr Moore, 07-08 champion Mr Crinnion and Mr Luke in the remaining places. It's early days, but Mr O'Callaghan and Mr Stewart-Jones will be happy with the starts they've made.
Any mistakes let me know.
Take it easy,
Danny

for those who like a flutter...
Hello chums,
although we in the Predictio world are all about the pride that comes with victory, i thought you may be interested in this promotion that Blue Square are doing on their website. It offers for the measly stake of £5 a chance to win big money doing what comes naturally to us: predicting results. Per round of eight fixtures you only have to get 2 spot ons for a free £5 bet and the money goes up with each spot on you manage like so:
3 spot ons: £25 bet
4 spot ons: £100 bet
5 spot ons: £500 bet
6 spot ons: £2500 cash
7 spot ons: £25, 000 cash
8 spot ons: £250, 000 cash
for a fiver for the whole tournament, it seems like a pretty darn tooting deal because although a £500 bet doesn't sound particularly wonderful, just stick it on a sure thing (i find early rounds at Wimbledon are always good) and it quickly turns into cash!
anyway, just thought i'd offer up the chance - www.bluesq.com is the place to go if you fancy taking up the challenge! Crinnion, with your penchant for the spot on, i fully expect a cut of the 250 grand mate!
Cheers, SJ

Predictio-o-o-
i must also commend you again Mr Watt for the creation of an exciting new chapter in life as a Predictio manager. And also on behalf of Google for testing out their new applications so thoroughly! I also feel my chances of success in the Euros are much improved by supporting the Germans and therefore not falling into the trap of being wildly optimistic on their results like I may have occasionally done during the Premiership season!
i have decided to submit predictions for the group games in sections as my views on the teams may well change as the tourney progresses.

Woooooooooo hooooooooooooooooo
First manager post, apart from Danny like. What a brave new world this is. it reminds me of the first time I saw a Rubiks Magic.
Well done D'mon, sterling effort and I think that a collective hurrah should be sounded for your work and dedication which has made Predictio second to none on the score prediction charts. with inovations-a-plenty, 2008/09 looks mouthwatering already.

Euro 2008 Predictio!
Greetings amigos,
The time for rest has passed. The time for predictions on an international platform has come! Yes, Euro 2008 begins this Saturday and with it comes Predictio Euro 2008. Winning a Euro Championship is a wonderful thing - just ask Ruud.
The lack of England means that the tournament will be slightly less predictable than usual (had we made it I'm sure we could all predict a quarter-final exit on pens for the three-lioned troops) and with many of the 16 entrants feeling that they have a genuine chance of lifting the trophy, it promises to be an interesting few weeks ahead.
As mentioned at the end of the domestic season, unless anyone has any objections (and if so, please voice them now) we will pilot a new spot-on scoring system during the Euro 2008 tournament, which, if a success, will be put into place for the 2008-09 league season. Essentially the change is that we will introduce a 5 point spot-on; 5 points will be awarded for a spot-on related to a game with either 0 or 4 or more goals. There is arguably more skill in spotting a 3-1 as opposed to a 2-0, and also it will give the chasing pack a better chance of catching those above them by submitting more risky predictions. Similarly, for the league leader, they will be faced with the dilemma of whether or not to play it safe and stick to 2-0's to go for 3 points, or try to increase their advantage by plumping for a 5 point 3-1. Anyways, we'll see how it goes.
In the meantime, if you could submit your predictions by copying and pasting from the fixture list below, that would be dandy. It's up to you when you put your predictions in (i.e. all in one go or day by day / round by round) but make sure you get them in on time!
Take it easy
Danny
