PLODS End of Season Play-Offs
Hi everyone,
Apologies for the lateness of this post in regards to the end of the normal season, but I had to get a few things sorted out and finalised for my grand plan for what the play-offs will entail, but we're just about ready to go now!
My idea is that kiwikid, rudolph_hucker, Diamond_wolf and myself will face off against 4 players from the Peterborough United prediction league (www.londonroad.net/Forums) over the course of the World Cup. 4 fixtures per round will be issued for each of the 8 players to predict, with there being a Quarter Final stage, a Semi Final stage and a Final where we will find out the grand champion
I will post the fixtures within this post, but I need you to reply with your predictions via a PM. Once I have all the submissions from players across both forums, I will then post them publicly on this sub-forum. I understand that this system may lead to none of us from this forum actually winning the play-offs, but as it is an idea that I would look to pursue in the future, I feel that it is just a good opportunity to pit our wits against predictors from other forums!
The same rules as the normal PLODS season apply, in that 3 points will be awarded for a bang on score, 1 point for a correct result (e.g. home win), and 0 points for an incorrect prediction.
If any of kiwikid, rudolph_hucker or Diamond_wolf have any questions about how the whole system will work, then feel free to drop me a PM, and I can explain
So the draw has been made, and it is....
olio Vs Bourneposh
rudolph_hucker Vs MaccPosh
kiwikid Vs KenGandhi
Diamond_wolf Vs canonmillersdad
And the fixtures, that need to be sumbitted to me through PM by 5pm on Thursday 12th June, are:
Brazil Vs Croatia
Mexico Vs Cameroon
Spain Vs Netherlands
Chile Vs Australia
Good luck to everyone involved!

Re: PLODS End of Season Play-Offs
Here are the results from the Quarter-Finals played last week, and those in bold are through to the next round...
olio 5-Forgot Bourneposh
rudolph_hucker Forgot-2 MaccPosh
kiwikid 4-4 KenGandhi
Diamond_wolf 2-1 canonmillersdad
kiwikid goes through as the number of goals he predicted (12) was closer to the actual amount scored (15) than KenGandhi's prediction (10)
So the Semi-Final draw is as follows:
Diamond_wolf Vs MaccPosh
olio Vs kiwikid
Again, if you would be able to PM me your predictions by 5pm on Tuesday 24th June, and then I will post them on the public forum when I have them all.
Costa Rica Vs England
Italy Vs Uruguay
Greece Vs Ivory Coast
Japan Vs Colombia
Good luck guys!
