No change at all in the order of the Leaderboard after the Barnsley game for which most of us indulged in some serious overestimated of the crowd - probably for very good reasons so -
Many congratulations to @wwfcblue for holding onto top spot. Many congratulations jointly to @perfidious_albion and @thecatwwfc who jointly hold the record for the closest prediction of the Season so far with their predictions for the Northampton home game.
Congratulations are due to @DevC who is Forecaster of the Week on here and recorded a new 10th best prediction which was good enough to both gain @DevC a place in the Sub 100 Club and cut in half the lead that @wwfcblue has at the top. That lead is now the equivalent of about a point rather than two.
There are a couple of other alterations I have spotted too - there may be others. @bookertease has a new 8th best prediction [201 score] and @our_frank has a new 9th best score [341] so they both have new 10th best scores too and have inched that bit closer to the person above them in the table.
There are congratulations for @tewkesburychairboy who with a second prediction of the season so far, came 9th on the Barnsley home game Top Twenty and knocked his first prediction into a cocked hat.
I just did some meticulous record checking and proved my memory is not perfect. Here is a screenshot of the top ten out of my final post of the 18 /19 season, the first year we had an attendance 'Tour de Season'
I should do an "All Time Greats" table sometime - I know the scores won't be absolutely comparable because I have included some cup games on occasions, but I think it would be fun.
The top four remain unchanged - on this occasion none of them were close enough to register a scoring score. Many congratulations to @wwfcblue who stays top of the Leaderboard.
Congratulations to @PJS, who was Forecaster of the Week with a match score of 45, that knocked just over 12 off the Leaderboard score and takes up to 5th place, the highest placing of their season so far.
Lots of people improved their score without moving up the Leaderboard - a notable example is @perfidious_albion whose match was 122, a new 7th best of the season personally, it knocked 6.9 off his Leaderboard score which took that to a tenth of a point - a single person behind @micra who just holds onto to 7th place on the Leaderboard.
The other really close spot is between 29th and 30th where @thecatwwfc leads @Twizz by a score of 0.1 (a single predicted person).
Just above that part of the table - indeed 19th to 29th - there was a great shuffling of places - with for example @Manboobs and @Mandown just holding onto places, despite recording scores within their previous best ten.
Congratulations are due to @thecatwwfc and to @perfidious_albion - they jointly still jointly hold the record for the closest prediction of the season so far - both missed by just two for the Northampton home game.
Nobody recorded a move of five or more places up the table, although several came close to that. @PJS was the only person to reach a highpoint on the Leaderboard so far
@tewkesburychairboy did gain the closest of his three predictions so far, but nobody else improved their personal best.
Many congratulations to @wwfcblue for holding onto top spot.
Congratulations to the entire top ten for retaining their places. @mooneyman@NewburyWanderer recorded the best score - [114] - of those in the top ten, a new 6th personal best and with it replacing a previous 10th best score of 200, the difference of 86 in those two numbers produces an improvement of 8.6 in this table, enough to take @mooneyman to the fringe of the sub 100 boundary and considerably closer to @ryan_w_kirkby2 in 9th position, but not quite enough to move positions. No one else in the top ten improved on their existing 10th best score.
@Glenactico's match score of 130 was a new personal 4th best and enough to climb to 14th place on this Leaderboard.
The closest match predictions this week came from those placed around the middle of the Leaderboard.
@BSE match score of 43 was the 2nd best prediction of the day and also a new 2nd best personal prediction of the season for @BSE, good enough to move from the other half of the Leaderboard into the top half.
Congratulations to Forecaster of the Week - @williwycombe - for a new personal best score of the season and congratulations to @our_frank, who was close in all of this match weeks tables and also recorded a new personal best for the season and the largest leap up the Leaderboard this week, and to a new personal highspot in the table too.
@Alexo recorded a 3rd best personal match day score and in consequence also moved up the Leaderboard.
Chat gpt made its 5th closest prediction so far but did not move on the Leaderboard.
Outside the Leaderboard there are congratulations for @tewkesburychairboy -just four predictions so far - so no position on the Leaderboard - but so far each prediction has been closer than the previous one, so a new personal best on ever occasion so far.
I hope to complete the Bristol Rovers game updates tomorrow.
Good luck to all with predicting the numbers coming to the Wigan game - that thread should be up very shortly. @railwaybeth and I are both coming so we will be in Block R rather than just me on the terrace.
Many congratulations to @wwfcblue who maintains a small lead at the top of the table.
The top six all keep their positions, although @Commoner in 3rd, @PJS in 5th and @NewburyWanderer in 6th all made scoring predictions. Congratulations to @NewburyWanderer who now has all 'best ten' predictions under 100.
Congratulations to @BSE, @DJWYC14 and @silverfox who all made giant leaps up the Leaderboard - 5 or more places - in a week when lots of people registered scoring predictions.
Congratulations again to @Erroll_Sims, this time for a new personal best prediction in the season so far.
The best individual forecast in the season so far is now shared three ways - @perfidious_albion and @thecatwwfc for their predictions in the Northampton home game together with @tewkesburychairboy for his score in the Bristol Rovers game.
The table is tighter than League One - maybe 8 points separately the top six. a gap of around 3 points to 7th and then 6 points covers all those in the upper part of the table.
Comments
I can't find Shev's previous best score, my searches only go back to 2020. I presume @Shev's amazing score was 18/19 or before?
The best I can find is @NewburyWanderer's exceptional score from 21/22 of 32.00.

Onto the Cambridge Away game.
I'm pretty sure it was 18/19, yes. Clearly resting on my laurels as I am diabolical at this now.
All the best in beating both! I am hoping you get into the 20s. No pressure!
I just did some meticulous record checking and proved my memory is not perfect. Here is a screenshot of the top ten out of my final post of the 18 /19 season, the first year we had an attendance 'Tour de Season'
@NewburyWanderer's 32.00 is the best ever end of season score.
