Challenge:

 

Maroon: After this weekend's games, the list of clubs in the top three in English League Two will be the same.

 

White: After this weekend's games, the list of clubs in the top three in English League Two will NOT be the same.

 

 

 

One of the top three clubs (Burton) dropped out of the top three, so the winning call was White.

 

Two players called White and advance to the eighth elimination round.

Really should have read the rules a bit closer.

 

Money already spent on women and helicopters after swansea's winner, didnt realise there was a jackpot round to come.

 

I'd add a Dawson face if i knew how to.

Not forgotten but absolutely no idea which way im going to go on this one........would have gone the other way and lost last week if i hadnt been beaten to it and my betting recently has been horrific, so not confident.

 

Hopefully the scotland game or wine help me find some inspiration!

THAITB opted for Maroon.

 

 

The results were:

 

Livingston 1-2 Dumbarton

Airdrieonians 0-1 Morton

Annan Athletic 2-2 Montrose

Gillingham 3-2 Leyton Orient

Wimbledon 1-0 Dagenham & Redbridge

 

That adds up to 14 goals, so the winning call is Maroon.

 

That means we have a winner! :toasting:

Your maths is up to scratch, and that was some late, late way to win the prize. :hae36:

 

Can you send me a PM to let me know which charitable cause you'd like us to donate ?250 to on your behalf?

 

Oh, and ?250 for you. That's a thing as well. :biggrin:

Goals 12, 13 and 14 in 90 (annan), 94 (leyton orient) and 98 (gills) minutes. Some way to do it indeed.

 

Was well chuffed with the alloa equaliser and then kept checking my phone just in case when it seemed all over on my way to the stadium. Then another hearts win and six points clear.

 

Thats a pretty good saturday!

thehibsareintheirbeds has decided that the donation of ?250 should go to:

 

CCLASP - Children with Cancer & Leukaemia Advice & Support for Parents

 

 

CCLASP is an Edinburgh children's charity set up 20 years ago to help children and young people who have life-threatening cancer and leukaemia, and also to support their families.

Jambos Kickback has previously contributed to CCLASP, and we're delighted with THAITB's choice.  :toasting:
