CTFC vs Leyton Orient Sat 15th February 2020

Well a cheerful and elated squad on the long and tedious journey back from the Northern hinterlands shortly to be joined by a new ultra fast and horrendously expensive white elephant project in a decade or so's time [...never if our own A417 is anything to go by!) to the favoured South East. I digress, congrats to the team for the win; hopefully that will continue Saturday at home against the Orient.
I'll go for a 2-1 win with May to score first.

5/5/5=15 :)

I had this match as a firm home win but then checked current form and saw that Orient are a point to the better:
4th L Orient 11 pts,
7th Cheltenham 10 pts.
So checked home & away form which did confirm my original thought:
[home] 9th Cheltenham 11 pts
[away] 11th Orient 7 pts but that included away win at Stevenage.

My forecast: Cheltenham 2-0 Orient, May to score

5/5/0-10

Not part of this competition but I did check and read average attendance is 3439 and this year in 2020 has been fairly consistent between 3029 to 3868.
Weather is expected to be bad on Saturday which might deter some but Cheltenham are on a good run that will attract others.
My guess would be 3567.
What's yours?

CTFC 3-1 Orient

Not so, not so at all.
Everybody could see the elephant trap that you were digging, so I carefully avoided it.
Actually I'm well pleased with that attendance forecast. On other prediction competitions it would have won me a few points.

Please explain the point and trap then so that we know you didn’t miss it.

Good try RCS but I'm not going to be drawn. :)

BTW I am currently joint top scorer on this competition and set ready to reclaim my title that you won last season in my absence. :D :D ;)

I guess it was you ASL, but I seem to remember RCS was doing alright for most of the season.

140 pts ............ Pas & OTC
125 ................. TIR
120 ................. Red Duke
110 ................. ASL & Shade
100 ................. Joe's Dad
80 ................... Cliffy
65 ................... RCS & JRA

Ah so you won’t explain the point because you did miss it.
