Ah boo I'm down already I seen. Mon tae :-(

Sorry dude :( ... still, all the fun seems to happen downstairs. 

So it's a play-off between @BigBo10 and @peasy23 for the Premiership spot...

And I've got a wee treat for you ... I've uncovered Edmund's cloud quiz he sent me a while back! PM me your scores... feel free anyone else to post their scores in the thread. I got a mighty 3! Good luck!!

Oh, and in Peasy news... he and Ross have both sent in their cup scores...

Ross. 5 - 7 Peasy23

And to quote Peasy, "Can we do the old quizzes every week?" ... a subtle change to the jibe "Can we play you every week?" :D ... unlucky Ross.

I've bitched about clouds before, but I read Bill Bryson's "The History of Everything" before, and it was cracking read, with the exception of the chapters on:

  1. Fossils
  2. Clouds

Don't like 'em. Never have. Yes, you see them every day, but what possible benefit is there from learning all their names? (I realise this argument could apply to pretty much all general knowledge but i've had some beers and I'm spoiling for a fight).

Pretty terrible week but hopefully 22/50 is enough to beat the drop

I'm not sure how the SFA would take it if Celtic spent the entire season playing big-money friendlies and then played their 38 games in quick succession :)

However, as luck would have it, you're still in the relegation spot so as SlipperyP says, tis the Beazer Homes League for you next season, I'm afraid!

Scottish teams should get precedence over NI, English, Thai, Aussie or Swiss teams anyway! It really is quite the melting pot the Beazer Homes League, especially since all the foreign teams have failed to gain promotion!

In the top tier, we're missing quite a few key results.. but Alang1993 has secured another title. Kincardine is looking nervously over his shoulder and Arabdownunder claims another 2nd. BigBo's tracksuit is on a bit of a shoogly peg (assuming the other results come in).

Down in the Beazer Homes League, I'm tempted to award everyone a bonus point for punctuality. It's always gratifying seeing all the results in before I've even crawled out my bed. Congrats to Blackislekillie who has yo-yoed back up to the top, and congrats also to the debutante Tynieness, who also gains promotion. Peasy's into another play-off.

Cup quiz to follow shortly!

Pwoud very Pwoud.  Came into this season with a small budget, and a young team but their enthusiasm got us over the line.  Will be favourites for relegation next season but we will battle on as that's what we do at this club.

Marvellous.

Let's be honest if Celtic tried that the SFA would bend over to accommodate them.. and if they finished 2nd bottom then surely some kind of reconstruction is in order ?

Yes, I thought something was missing.

5/10 (all guesses, of course).

5/10. I posted it yesterday.

BigBo10 was getting his cup and league play-off quizzes confused - I'm not going doolally. 

Anyway, it looks like Peasy23 and BigBo10 have drawn in the play with 5 apiece. So it's another play-off question...

Please PM me the answer again ... closest gets it!

I deal you a 5 card poker hand. Assuming no wild cards or replacements, what is the probability that you have a royal flush?
