Week 2 Toulouse 0-2 Lyon Nancy 1-1 Caen Lorient 0-1 Monaco Nice 2-1 Strasbourg Sochaux 0-0 Le Mans Auxerre 0-0 Bordeaux Marseille 2-0 Rennes Saint-Étienne 1-1 Valenciennes Metz 1-0 Lille Lens 1-1 PSG
Here are my picks. Toulouse 0-2 Lyon (Toulalan, Squillaci) Nancy 1 (Kim)-0 Caen Lorient 0-2 Monaco (Ménez, Kallon) Nice 1 (Koné)-0 Strasbourg Sochaux 0-0 Le Mans Auxerre 1 (Kahlenberg)-1 Bordeaux (Micoud) Marseille 2 (Zenden, Cheyrou)-0 Rennes Saint-Etienne 3 (Ilan 2, Payet)-1 Valenciennes (Doumeng) I'll do the Sunday games tomorrow, if that's OK. I want to see how I do with these. This was actually a lot of fun, though it was kinda tough picking scorers, given how strong teams are in goalkeeping, central defense, and defensive midfield!

After being appointed just two games before the end of last season and managing to save Paris Saint Germain's place in Ligue 1, Carefree 95 has been given the nod to continue his impressive work into the 07/08 season. When asked about his appointment for the upcoming season, Carefree 95 said "Obviously it was a tough campaign last year, being in the relegation zone until the last day, however I believe with our hard work in pre-season a top 5 finish is not out of our grasps and I believe I'm the right man to deliver it." On the appointment the chairman stated "Although he kept us up last season, we really didn't want to give him the job but he kept hanging around the training ground, so when the judge didn't grant the restraining order we had no choice." Toulouse 1-2 Lyon Nancy 2-1 Caen Lorient 1-2 Monaco Nice 1-1 Strasbourg Sochaux 2-0 Le Mans Auxerre 1-1 Bordeaux Marseille 3-0 Rennes St-Étienne 2-1 Valenciennes Metz 0-2 Lille Lens 0-1 PSG
I know, though it's fun. Especially considering how wrong we often are. After all, in L1, goals don't come around that often. Here are my picks for the Sunday games. Metz 0-2 Lille (Michel Bastos, Makoun) Lens 0-0 PSG
So if I understand the whole system correctly, I have 6 points thus far, as I have 3 correct outcomes (ASNL, OGCN, ASSE), as well as 3 correct scorelines on those games? As a side note, does anyone else think this season has gotten off to a "huh, what's going on?" start, with the title favorites having issues and the dark horses (Bordeaux, Nancy and Le Mans) being on top? I know, it's only been 2 games, but who would have thought?
Think of it more as having scored 6 goals in this week's match, but you seem to have got the idea its a conspiracy
I'll volunteer if you want, I'm in a good mood as I scored 9 goals this week. Though congrats to all, I am certain everyone competing did well.
Thanks but I've already started calculating and I need something to take my mind off that god awful PSG performance. Feel free to do it next week though.
Yeah it was a shame about the rest of the team though And an away draw against that Lens team is very disappointing!

Week 3 is already coming up on Wednesday. I'm not sure how this kind of week was done last year - there are 2 games that are being rescheduled b/c of European matches (Lyon v Lens, set for 9/29, and Caen v Toulouse, not set yet). I guess we just pick all of the matches anyway? Week 3 8/15/2007 Valenciennes 1:1 Marseille PSG 1:0 Lorient Bordeaux 2:0 Le Mans Strasbourg 0:1 Auxerre Lille 3:1 Sochaux Rennes 2:2 Saint-Étienne Monaco 1:0 Metz 8/16/2007 Nancy 2:1 Nice 9/29/2007 Lyon 1:1 Lens Yet to be Scheduled Caen 0:0 Toulouse
I don't know how it was done before, but it'd make a lot more sense, I think, to go pick only the 8 games, since we do want to do standings after this, don't we? Also, I'm going into this with the essence that the skill in getting the games right has a lot to do with form, injuries, morale, etc. of the teams in question. That's what I'm doing, in any case. So it'd be overwhelmingly difficult to think what those will be down the road. That's my opinion, anyway.
Valenciennes 1-0 Marseille PSG 2-0 Lorient Bordeaux 1-0 Le Mans Strasbourg 2-1 Auxerre Lille 2-0 Sochaux Rennes 0-0 Saint-Étienne Monaco 3-0 Metz Nancy 0-0 Nice Lyon 2-0 Lens Caen 0-0 Toulouse
We would pick all the games and then adjust the standings retroactively once the games were all played....i think. Valenciennes 1-1 Marseille PSG 2-1 Lorient Bordeaux 2-0 Le Mans Strasbourg 1-1 Auxerre Lille 3-1 Sochaux Rennes 1-0 Saint-Étienne Monaco 2-0 Metz Nancy 1-0 Nice Lyon 3-1 Lens Caen 0-1 Toulouse
I got 3 points. https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=12443222&postcount=24 I think we postponed the predictions for the matches that were postponed.
3ème Journée Valenciennes 0-1 Marseille Bordeaux 1-0 Le Mans Lille 1-0 Sochaux Monaco 1-0 Metz Paris SG 1-0 Lorient Strasbourg 0-1 Auxerre Rennes 1-1 Saint Etienne Nancy 1-0 Nice EDIT: I forgot to add that we should probably use a third party to total the score predictions. That way a non-bias party is doing it. Also everyone should always double-check to ensure that they aren't missing any points after the results are tallied.
Valenciennes 1-2 Marseille PSG 1-0 Lorient Bordeaux 2-0 Le Mans Strasbourg 0-1 Auxerre Lille 3-1 Sochaux Rennes 1-1 Saint-Étienne Monaco 2-0 Metz Nancy 2-0 Nice Lyon 2-0 Lens Caen 0-1 Toulouse
Alright mate calm down!! I just made a mistake, I wasn't trying to cheat you out of points or anything. You could have just PMed me about the result and I would have changed it for you, no need to get so upset. I did volunteer to do it after all and it was the first time I'd done it too. Feel free to do the results yourself in future and then you can check them as many times as you want.
