Reminder re the Euros prediction league as promised. See entry of 24th May for full details. Thanks Lone Groover and Foxello for starting it off (although you need to identify you double points match Foxello).
You can post on either this thread or the original.
Good luck everyone.
Amendment:
I should have mentioned in the original post that the usual bonus points for the top five in each round will apply, ie top score 25, 2nd 15, 3rd 10, 4th 6 and 5th 3. Original post will be edited accordingly.
As you will doubtless note, there will be the occasional non ja606 'guest' taking part. I will post their predictions for them. If anybody would like the opportunity to do likewise, for example wife, girlfriend etc, please feel free. It will be each individual's responsibility to inform any guests of the results when posted.
Good luck one and all!
OWF.
Euro 2021 Prediction League - amended

Any more for any more on this!
@Dubs, @MITLBC, @Dunge, @Bowstring, @Appleton, @Downsouf... ?
Be good to get the gang involved! I am seeing a few more family members pop up in it mind... (Kenilworth Fox!! That's my Nan!) She doesn't even watch football, so she will probably win by a street!
Hope you're all doing OK!

Very kind sentiments Young Warwick, and both yourself and your dad have been an absolute credit to the column. Warwick senior has put such painstaking effort into striving to keep OTW Predictions League going.
I can recall offering to step into the breach when Yanks was absent. It would have been a very basic effort on my part, much in keeping with the existing theme at the time. Anything more elaborate may well have proved to be a shambles much to the detriment of those involved.
I simply haven’t had the time to get my head around all the players, teams etc and analyse their strengths and weaknesses. A Leeds fan, I believe, sent a link to a “handy guide” to each of the partaking nation’s stars which has been an excellent read thus far. However, I feel I am not going to be in a position to see too many matches through a rotten work schedule.
I wish you the very best over the coming weeks.

Thanks for your very kind comments Downsouf - very much appreciated. I realise Yankari was very much up against it in 2019/20 season but it's really great to see him back in the game for the Euros and hopefully next season too. Fortunately, I have a great deal more time so it's not a problem for me, plus I'm really enjoying doing it!
Enjoy your summer
