YKPAIHIAH Premier League 2012-13

Only update here is that Kvartsyanyi is now head coach of the 16th placed Kozaks...

 

I really like what Demyanenko is doing with this team. From the highlights that I have seen and the goals that they have scored there is definitely stability in the team. Whether they will have the goods to fight for a European event with the kind of a coach Demyanenko is anything is possible.

Its quite obvious that DK is 2 goals the better of Karpaty.

The question was whether it would be 2-0 or 3-1....

I didn't know you were keeping tabs....

Its been kind of lonely on this thread.

BTW 30/72 Got it Wrong is not bad.
I thought I'd be better in the exact score department which would cover all expenses - IYKWM

 

What we're interested is correct scores...

The usual break even point is about 1 - 1.2 correct scores / round. (depending on how outlandish you picks are).

If I had picked a 5-0 MetaDon correct score thats like breaking the bank (100/1).

 

No.

It is me tracking the season as per my predictions.

You're welcome to join in.

Karpaty L'viv            0-1 Arsenal Kyiv       

 

Although I had SD +1 over DD and that was the correct margin, there has to be a query about the referee's decision to give a penalty for SD when Cherbiachko clearly did not see the ball and unfortunate that the ball from header the head went onto his hand. Also the 2nd YC was pathetic in this case.

Then in extra time a hand ball just as clearly Kucher was hit on the hand and he did see the ball.
The referee waved the play on.

Also I have to query whether the Mykhtaryan's goal was on side and whether the ball was in a stationary position when the free kick was taken.

GIGO from the referees....
