Another chance for us to dust off the crystal ball and see if we can predict these results.... Matches to be played on Monday 16th December Black Horse v Star Eastbourne (Star receive a handicap of 1,200 in any 3 games of their choice) Ye Olde Black Horse v Glynde Club (Glynde Club receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) Laughing Fish v Cock'n'Balls (Cock'n'Balls receive a handicap of 5,500 in any 3 games of their choice) Plough v Hassocks Hotel (Plough receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) Festive humour will gain additional bonus points this week....

And here are my thoughts on these games.... Black Horse v Star Eastbourne (Star receive a handicap of 1,200 in any 3 games of their choice) It is a well known story that 3 wise men followed the star to find a stable around this time of year.... sadly if they hand their gifts over in the stable this time then the horse will bolt away with a 3-2 home win. Ye Olde Black Horse v Glynde Club (Glynde Club receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) I'm sure that I could put some more "olde" jokes in here, but I must stop "horseing" around and try to get this right if I want to stay in the "black" and get some points on the board.... ....a 3-2 away win for the visitors in a close game. Laughing Fish v Cock'n'Balls (Cock'n'Balls receive a handicap of 5,500 in any 3 games of their choice) Christmas has come early for the Cock team who receive plentiful gifts and the largest handicap in any of the games in the new format.... but the "Grinch" home team are in "Bah Humbug" mood at the moment and have taken the extreme step of dropping Henry on his home table this week. A 3-2 home win. Plough v Hassocks Hotel (Plough receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) "Santa Derek" and his team of elves (yes, I remember the special video about them a couple of years ago! ) will be keen to get back to winning ways and looking to scatter the Plough this week. A 3-2 away win.

Black horse v the star 3-2 away win hopefully Bob will be available tonight to boost the visitors chances Rotters v Glynde 3-2 away win the handicap may come to our aid today, Carol singing will not be on the agenda for the visitors as we have our reputation to uphold Fish v Cock 3-2 home win santa may give the cock a nice present tonight with a massive handicap for the home team to overcome but there will be plenty of diversion signs out to put him off the scent, leaving he fish to fill their stockings again Plough v Hassocks 3-2 Home win, the plough will grind out a home win in a tough to call ADVENT tonight this will be the turning point for the plough and will win ALL their future matches just like MAGI...C

Time to do some marking, starting with me.... Black Horse v Star Eastbourne (Star receive a handicap of 1,200 in any 3 games of their choice) It is a well known story that 3 wise men followed the star to find a stable around this time of year.... sadly if they hand their gifts over in the stable this time then the horse will bolt away with a 3-2 home win. A 3-2 away win means that this (not very) wise man picks up no points for the result... but I think the (very bad) puns deserve half a point for effort! Ye Olde Black Horse v Glynde Club (Glynde Club receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) I'm sure that I could put some more "olde" jokes in here, but I must stop "horseing" around and try to get this right if I want to stay in the "black" and get some points on the board.... ....a 3-2 away win for the visitors in a close game. And a 3-2 away win it was.... 2 points for a correct prediction. Laughing Fish v Cock'n'Balls (Cock'n'Balls receive a handicap of 5,500 in any 3 games of their choice) Christmas has come early for the Cock team who receive plentiful gifts and the largest handicap in any of the games in the new format.... but the "Grinch" home team are in "Bah Humbug" mood at the moment and have taken the extreme step of dropping Henry on his home table this week. A 3-2 home win. Bah humbug.... the handicap was well used by our opponents to get a 3-2 away win, no points here. Plough v Hassocks Hotel (Plough receive a handicap of 1,900 in any 3 games of their choice) "Santa Derek" and his team of elves (yes, I remember the special video about them a couple of years ago! ) will be keen to get back to winning ways and looking to scatter the Plough this week. A 3-2 away win. The Elves were scattered in a 3-2 home win for the Plough.... no points here for me either. Just 2.5 points for me this week.

Black Horse 2 Star 3 Ye Olde Black Horse 3 Glynde 2 Laughing Fish 4 Cock 1 Plough 3 Hassocks 2 Not sure how many black pegs i can predict for our team this week but maybe on our home table we can scramble a win. 2 points for correctly predicting that the Star would shine in the stable in Lewes.... the Glynde Scrooges spoilt your party in the second game and the Fish were sunk by the rampant Cock.... but 2 more points for the Plough win over the Hassocks Elves.... and a special bonus point for no Black Pegs this week!

Now we come to the messy wizard.... Black horse v the star 3-2 away win hopefully Bob will be available tonight to boost the visitors chances Bob certainly fixed it for the Star, 2 points for a correct result. Rotters v Glynde 3-2 away win the handicap may come to our aid today, Carol singing will not be on the agenda for the visitors as we have our reputation to uphold What reputation is that...? Two points for a correct result, although perhaps you should lose a point for being such a bunch of "Grinches" and not singing! Fish v Cock 3-2 home win santa may give the cock a nice present tonight with a massive handicap for the home team to overcome but there will be plenty of diversion signs out to put him off the scent, leaving he fish to fill their stockings again Empty stockings at the Fish this week.... no points here. Plough v Hassocks 3-2 Home win, the plough will grind out a home win in a tough to call ADVENT tonight this will be the turning point for the plough and will win ALL their future matches just like MAGI...C 2 points for the correct result and a 0.5 bonus for the humour.... added to the earlier 2 point bonus for finding the video clip gives Gandalf a massive 8.5 points this week!
