Title: Guess The Goal 5; Liverpool v Villa Sunday 5th July!
Post by: Louzie0 on June 28, 2020, 06:53:36 PM: Welcome to GTG Round 5: Liverpool v Aston Villa at 4.30pm on Sunday, 5th July!

Reasons to be cheerful:

1. They’ll be tired after playing on Thursday 🥴 and the worse for wear after celebrating when the pubs re-open the night before! 🤪🤞

2. Deano’s coaching staff have an entire week to get our honest bunch of lads firing like a pimped Rolls Royce with extra thrusters in F1.*

3. We beat them 4-0 last time. (An excellent omen for GTG as well as the Villa!)

Basically- No problem.👍. Why not Adopt A Number?

Just

*choose a minute between 0 and 90 in which you think a goal will be scored.
*Any goal, from anybody, including Them.
*Use your favourite number. (The Villa need all the help we can get.)
*Multiple guesses on the same number are TOTALLY OK.
*Post it in here before KO.
*Use 45+ or 90+ if you feel strangely drawn to extra time drama.

That’s it!

Things to remember-

Just the one minute, please.
No edits; so if your post goes awry, just post again!

New teams, just jump in ...

any time, any place, anywheeeeere...it’s a wonderful game we can shaaaaare....

... as Mings sings.

UTV!

If this has been read 54 times, why aren’t there 54 guesses? :o

Cmon, 0-90. Post a guess. It’s free!

Could be lucky...I hope so, with a Villa 🥅 obviously.

But

There are 81 lonely numbers left without a sponsor :'(
Come on, H&V, you can meet this challenge!

3.1415926.

Villa will probably get sliced yet again.

Mathematically on the basis that football does throw up some strange results so let's be optimistic and say 3.

Best case 3-0

Worst case 10-0

Probable outcome 5-0

Hopefully the Villa win a lot more than that if it does, especially all 3 of them, robbo!

russon’s in for 5
Tony Erdington 0
And CDBWF has consolidated 90+!

44 teams have adopted or shared a minute, so far.

There are lots of lonely minutes left looking hopeful, and winsome ;) , especially between 46-72 ( none taken) and 75-90. ( 82’s taken.)

Show a minute you care!

There’s still a lot of scope...
I’m thinking of their consolation goal.

Post by: Nii Lamptey on July 04, 2020, 11:50:14 AM: 12, with the obligatory 64th minute goal (probably the 4th or 5th by this time), which will trigger Dean's square peg, square hole subs in the 65th minute. ;)
Title: Re: Guess The Goal 5; Liverpool v Villa Sunday 5th July!
Post by: Louzie0 on July 04, 2020, 02:47:43 PM: Ok Nii

Do you want 12 or 64? :o

(Totally confused )

Edit I’m going with 12 because that is the first number posted. :)

17. CDBWF! 8)

9: Towser! 😃

The rest of us all got a point for playing this round. :)
I was hoping for 1 point for everyone, and then I was hoping that the second goal would be our equaliser.

Still, we’re not gone yet!
Round 6 will be up and running soon and the table is about to be updated.
