Conclusion of NLS 2019/20

[Gary C]

Will you be continuing this next season, week by week, so that we can see what would have happened in the Upside Down World?

Remember Braintree 2 x seasons ago??
Mikey can i suggest that you save the playing of the game until 3pm this Saturday?
This was to be the Final kick off time, it will all add to the suspense (And give us something to get up for!!

Wasn't the goal scored by Billy Crook? Bit of a bundled effort, but enough to piss on our cornflakes...

3pm Saturday it is. Not sure about it being settled by one roll of the dice though, penalties were quite fun in my own little world yesterday with odds as a goal and evens as a miss. I'll have a think and am open to suggestions.

As for next season, I'm really hoping we can leave it to the semi-professionals. It's interesting that we haven't sparked a thread on the subject of all this. Maybe a sweepstake opportunity on when the next game at PP will take place?

Too crass for this game to be decided on one dice roll, therefore the mechanic is changing for today’s playoff final. There will be ten rolls, one for each nine game minutes. Dartford will be represented by the left die, Maidstone with the right. A six will signify a goal for that team, whilst a double six will be a penalty - awarded to the team with the higher value of a subsequent roll - whereby previous rules of odds for a miss and evens for a goal will apply.
Since each team will have ten in-game rolls, the statistical probably is that each team will score 1.67 goals and be awarded 0.28 penalties. If the scores are tied after 90 minutes, extra time (four subsequent rolls) and penalties shall decide the winners. There will be a short test later.

Kick off 3pm in the glorious sunshine.

Ten minutes until kick-off and it is eerily silent at PP. So much so, that the police helicopter is circling Central Park on the lookout for lost fans.

That's far too complicated & confusing for your average Footy fan DA!! Just roll the bloody thing twice man!!

[DA Mikey]

Sorry my man, it’s a slow burner today. Besides, we would have just lost 3-4, so I’m sticking to it!

[M1 South]

I'm on tenterhooks here??

[DA Mikey]

No goals yet, beating the six-roll odds...

[DA Mikey]

It’s boring Jeff. The commentator has lit a barbecue.

[DA Mikey]

A five and a two. That’s gonna see us into half time I’m afraid, so next update at 4pm. 0-0
