CCC - latest update

 It has been a while and there aren't many matches to go.  Kate and Andy are already promoted.  And we know the four teams in the playoffs.  Have you all watched your team play this season and posted a photo of you watching on the blog so you can claim them back?

Technically Wycombe aren't down but for them to stay up (which they have only done 9 times all season) and reduce the goal difference by 13 goals compared to Derby and Derby have to lose (they have lost their last 5).

For those of you wondering how we are going to cope with two seasons... simple, two curries weeks or months apart.  It would not be fair on those that earnt a cheap curry to abandon last season and nor would it be fair to half the cost and roll into one.  Remember Dave got the free curry last year and I live with Dave :-).   Two curries in one day Dan is more than any stomach should have to cope with unless you are abroad!  

Derby day in the Pine-First household....on the plus side Wycombe still firmly anchored to the bottom of the table...even though they scraped a lucky win :-)!!!

Owls v Bees

 Me and Dan witnessed a tantilising match last night, with Dan running out the winner 2-1. Not sure if I'm going to need a claim this season though, promotion is a bit of a long shot.

CCC - ladies still on top !!!!

 Whilst it is international break there is time to catch up on the CCC.  Kelly and Lyn have maintained their 100% record and share the same goal difference.  Stoke are surprisingly less than the cost of a curry and Ted has made a dent in his huge starting point and is now at £69.29 but it is a long way to go.

correction Barnsley = Dave rather than Anna paying twice!

Kelly and Lyn have a freebie

 I'm not sure that these two lovely ladies have ever had a free curry at any stage of the season before so it would be remiss of me not to post it whilst that is the case.  Perhaps a little cruelly Kelly beat Ted who's Owls are desperate for points to get out of negative. Interestingly if he had drawn it would have saved him only 50p although a win would have saved him a tenner.  The Midlands teams are no faring so well at the start of this season.

Start of 20-21 season - it's started and Ted is reducing his debt rapidly!

 Hi all, so the new season has started. More about admin at another time, but for now the important news for Ted.  Ted wanted to know how much his curry was costing him due to his 12 point deduction.

Assuming the curry will be £11 (can't really assume that now) before the season started Ted would have been paying the lot £264.

On the first evening Watford won and that saved Ted £50.50 as everyone else owed a bit.  Managing to win himself on the Saturday, Ted in now down to the mere sum of £99.99 a dramatic saving of 62% in 2 days.  Most of us would be happy with that (if you didn't start so high!).  Here is where you are for now.

CCC - season is finally over

What a night that was! How exciting with so many teams with stuff to play for, promotion, playoffs and relegation.  Goals going in and the situation changing constantly - if I'd been on the ball I'd have done some sort of spreadsheet,

Anna did no favours for Dan and I ruined Mick's chances.  Lyn laid down and let Neil sneak into the playoffs. Congratulations to Dave and Karen on promotion.

Despite their recent form trying to launch themselves as high as possible, Wigan were in the situation that their 12 point deduction was applied as they could get relegated and relegated they have been ..... but they hope to appeal. Kate's curry more than doubled overnight.

Not sure when the curry will be - we need to find a curry house big enough for social distancing or a big venue and a takeaway.  Anyone any thoughts?
