Trying the "look at image for 5 seconds and select the first square that comes to mind" method today, This is almost certain to propel me even further down the table.

High scoring match.
Hard luck BigF. 7 would normally be good enough in any game, but not against Buxton in this form, especially not scoring in Image 2.

Next Game starts later tonight and ends at the final whistle against Arsenal on Saturday afternoon

Blood and sand....now that leaves me with a problem. Do I leave Easton out in Lanzarote and go with Tommy Cowan again?

Well played Green Parrot. I know you were only playing the kids...

A high-scoring thriller, I think that's one of if not even my highest score in Spot The Ball, unlucky for you, but a decent point for both of us I suppose. :)

Some impressive tallies in this round, are folks getting better at this game, or are the images getting easier?

Unbelievable that MrTopTier has 48 points and is third from bottom, whilst 48 points is in third.
Fell unlucky with the fixture planner there.

Apologies to the Willie Irvine League for failing to submit my entry thus allowing my opponent an 8-0 victory.

Just come out of a 24 houperiod I don't ever want to repeat. Mao has been really ill since last Tuesday and we thought it was the end yesterday.
She has made remarkable progress overnight and hopefully on the road to recovery :D

COTC 1882 is unbeaten this season and his 8 points may have made my entry futile anyway :lol:
