With the year’s championship action at last over, it’s also time to reveal the winner of this year’s championship prediction mini-league, powered once again by Facetheball.com. This one, I’m proud to say, is staying in-house. The young lad, trading under his Big Dog moniker, has been to the fore in the prediction stakes all summer and he had the mini-league […]
It’s been a month since I did the last update in the prediction mini-league and so it’s as well to get this bulletin squared off and done before the madness of the build-up to the final takes hold in earnest. With only the big one left to play, this means there’s only one match left to predict in this year’s competition. […]
Just five games left to play – imagine! – in this year’s championship, the five ones where everything will be decided. Including, by the way, the All-Stars: I had to laugh on Sunday when Eamon O’Hara claimed on RTÉ Radio prior to throw-in between Tipp and Galway that Danny Cummins was a shoo-in for an award this year. ‘Was’ being […]
This latest update on the prediction mini-league is, I know, coming hot on the heels of the last one I did and with only two matches having been played since then. Both of those games, however, produced shock results and my young lad took a gamble on the Clare one, which paid off handsomely for him and sees him clamber […]
I’ve just done my predictions for this weekend’s matches but ahead of these games it’s as well to do another update on the prediction mini-league where the business end of the season isn’t too far away now. The rash of qualifier action of late has produced a bit of movement in the table compared to how things were the last […]
Fully occupied as we are with this qualifier journey we’re on, it’d be easy to forget what’s happening on the prediction mini-league front. There were a fair few matches on last weekend and the week before and so that meant plenty of chances to leap up or slide down the table. I’m still blowing out the dirty petrol – I’m back […]
With the start of the qualifiers last weekend there was a decent sprinkling of games on and not all of them, including – as we so well know – our own one went according to form. That’s had a bit of an impact on the prediction mini-league leaderboard so it’s as well to do an update on how things now […]
Okay, we’re in proper countdown mode ahead of Saturday’s Connacht semi-final meeting with Galway at MacHale Park (throw-in 7pm) so it’s as well to start clearing the decks to get ready for this one. Time, then, for a quick update (the second in the series) on how things are shaping up in this year’s championship prediction mini-league. The leaderboard after Week 5, […]
Okay, we’ve had three weekends of action so far in this year’s championship and I guess it’s time for the first update on how things are shaping up in this year’s prediction mini-league. A total of 56 hopefuls went to post this time around and the top ten after Week 3 are as shown in the table below. As you […]
The Connacht championship opener in New York has been played, The Sunday Game is back on the telly this weekend, the provincial championship launches are happening – no word on the Connacht one as yet but I’m sure it’ll be on before too long – and it’s even begun to warm up a bit. Time, surely, for the launch of that […]
