[BigBo10]

8/10 to end the week.

[The Captain]

8 for Friday.. Ditto peasy23. 

[Eednud]

@NJ2 and @101 you've both got 40 minutes to get your Thursday and Friday scores in before service closes. 

[Eednud]

Table time and in the Premier one @8MileBU wins it by 2 points from @Moomintroll on QD from @Salvo Montalbano. At the bottom down goes @alang1993 and any 2 or 3 out of @Ziggy @The DA or @wastecoatwilly. They all finished on 39 points with the exact same daily scores.

The SWL title goes to @Silky Si McFly 4 points ahead of 2nd place @Tynierose and it's a play-off for 3rd place and the play-off spot between myself @Eednud and @MixuFixit So a 5 way play-off for promotion/relegation. Down go  @Mark Connolly @NJ2 and @Ross. on QD from play-spotter @Spring Onion

The BWV flag goes to @CaspianChris 3 points ahead of @SteelJag and @Snobot with @JamesP_81 taking the play-off spot on QD. @SlipperyP avoids the wooden spoon as it goes to @101 .

Over to @SlipperyP to check my QDing, gives us the play-off participants play-off stats and set the play-off question.

 

[SlipperyP]

@Eednud  I think @The Captain makes the playoff in the 3rd Div.  Can you confirm.

You are correct. Apologies @JamesP_81   but you’re taking the 5th.   @The Captain is 4th.

Bit of a problem with the diddy league, o got 6 for Monday, not 8. I know this leaves me open to receiving the wooden spoon again depending on games in hand, but someone has to get it.

[Eednud]

Well I wrote it down as an 8 and that’s the way it will stay. You will be deducted 2 points for not telling me by smoko on Wednesday but the 2 points are reinstated for being honest. The wooden spoon belongs to 101 this week as any missing scores are deemed, in best Katie Boyle voice, nul points.

[SlipperyP]

Thank you @Eednud, I really don't understand why you are still held in OZ, your're a good man.

First up we will have the 1st Division who gets relegated and who gets in the playoff, playoff.

@Ziggy v @The DA v @wastecoatwilly

Winner will get through to the real weekend play off, other 2 get automatically relegated.

We also have a 2nd Div Play off to see who gets promoted and who goes into the playoff, playoff.

@Eednud v @MixuFixit

Winner will automatically be promoted, loser will get a second chance in the real weekend play off.

Question for all 5 - From Wikipedia, what is the population of Motherwell? (last estimated in 2012).

This reminds me of the song Fast Car by Tracy Chapman, especially the line "You'll find work and I'll get promoted". It's very apt, except I've already got a job and I've not been promoted. Well done @Silky Si McFly ... I'm sorely tempted to strip out all that populist nonsense in your quiz I'm running tomorrow, and replace it with questions about architecture and Japanese poetry. 

[JamesP_81]

You are correct. Apologies [mention=72090]JamesP_81[/mention]   but you’re taking the 5th.   [mention=72250]The Captain[/mention] is 4th.

Fair enough.

You'll upset the natives.  Just cos it's not your cup of tea, doesn't mean it isn't tea.

@Ziggy population of Motherwell is 47,000 all of whom would bite a dug.

v

 @The DA Population of Motherwell is around 30K.

 @wastecoatwilly I was in motherwell last night the asda looked busy going for 82,000 steelmen.

We also had a 2nd Div Play off to see who gets promoted and who goes into the playoff, playoff.

@Eednud Motherwell will be between 30-40,000 so I’ll go for 35,000

 v

 @MixuFixit Motherwell: 45000

Question  - From Wikipedia, what is the population of Motherwell? (last estimated in 2012).

• 32,120 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherwell

@The DA fights another day, 'well another playoff question.  Going down quicker than a loose Lanarkshire lassie are @Ziggy & @wastecoatwilly

In the other playoff, glasses of claret getting swallied as @Eednud is promoted to the tap league, congratulations, and in the playoff is @MixuFixit.with his second chance.

The  real playoff answer will be revealed as soon as I have received all the answers.
