An interesting bit of trivia about the Cup upsets:

Chelsea 2 - 4 Bradford
Chelsea's starting line-up cost about ?98 million, Bradford's cost ?7,500

Cambridge Utd 0 - 0 Man Utd
Man Utd's starting line-up cost about ?200 million, Cambridge's cost nothing.

It's not all about money

Bristol C - WestHam, 14.00 GMT
Asc 4CN24, MC 29AQ52, Moon 14AR35, POF 13VI42
Day Sun, Hour Venus (Regio) - radical by powers and friendship

Backtrack:
In the Bristol C - WestHam game Pluto in the 7th house was trine POF in a radical chart. WestHam won 1-0, scoring in the 80th minute.

Brighton - Arsenal, 16.00 GMT
Asc 29CN21, MC 4AR55, Moon 15AR45, POF 9LI44
Day Sun, Hour Saturn - Radical by triplicity with Moon

The closest aspect is MC * Sun in the 7th house. Arsenal are 1 goal up after 90 seconds and look good for winning with a handicap.
********************************************

No, it's just 3 marginal wins for the favourites today:

Bristol C - WestHam 0-1
Villa - Bournemouth 2-1
Brighton - Arsenal 2-3

What changed? Is there a puzzle?

Dare i suggest the quality of the moment?

Yes, astrogooner - but it's slight and like coming out of a storm. Things were like average better or closer to normal today.

I found the highlights from the Chelsea - Bradford 2-4 game yesterday.
The goals are spectacular.

I particularly liked the way Jos? Mourinho went into the Bradford changing room after the game and shook the hand of one and every player, congratulating them on their effort and team achievement!

The interesting thing is that on the weekend of 28th December 2014, there were quite a few draws

CP vs QPR
Sp*rs vs Man U
Soton vs Chav
AV vs Sunderland

Moon in Aries, both this weekend and then, conjoined, or conjuncting to Uranus, on both occasions.

Moon in Aries has a history of an excess of draws or the favourites losing, but only in matches that kick-off during the day. With evening matches there has been a big excess of outsider wins, but slightly less than expected draws.

That's interesting, GB.
Do you have a percentage breakdown on that?

Yes of course, I should have given the details.

Historically (in the Premier League) about 25% of matches end in a draw.
Moon in Aries and day matches we have 36% ending drawn.
With evening matches and Moon in Aries only 19% are drawn.

Historically 54% of matches are favourite wins, but with Moon in Aries only 42% of day matches are favourite wins.

The outsider historically only wins 20% of the time, but night matches with Moon in Aries the outsider wins 39% of the time (nearly twice what we would expect).

Brilliant!

League Cup Semi Final 2nd leg - Maureen vs. Brenda

Edit: Note of Interest:

Mourinho is known in England as Maureen and Brendan Rogers as Brenda.

Maureen a female given name, Irish form of Mary, also called Virgin Mary.

Brenda - a female given name: from a Germanic word meaning flame or sword.

The Virgo Asc and Pisces Dec (Mars on it and Trip Ruler of Pisces) reflects these names nicely, does it not?

Poetry.

Anyway, using the most affective system for football matches that I've come across - Frawley's L1/L7 system - the teams are assigned thus:

Chelsea, clear favorites @ 8/13, L1 & L10 - Mercury 13?Aquarius 34'r

Liverpool, plucky underdogs @ 5/1, L7 & L4 - Jupiter 18?Leo 56'r

Common sence would suggest a Chelsea win, possibly in extra time, backed up with Fortuna on the 10th cusp. With the Moon in Taurus, expect a slow and cautious game.

Using the Moon as the flow of events, She makes an opposition to the anti scion of Mercury (16?Scorpio26') at 18mins and an Inconjunct to the anti scion of the 7th Mars at 27mins (17?Libra59') - possible times for goalmouth action. The Quincunx is most certainly the 'go to' aspect in sports Astrology.

Whether or not Mars has an affect being placed so close to an angle remains to be seen. I suspect that it could, in fact, indicate a red card or possibly an own goal.

But fear not Liverpool fans - Jupiter ephemerally conjucts to the antiscion of the Moon @ 14?Leo44' - just outside the 12th house. Could well meen that Liverpool 'get out of jail'.

Suggested bets:

Half time result draw - 13/10

1-1 at half time - 6/1

Exactly 2 1st half goals - 11/4

Anytime own goal - 7/1

1st goal - 11-20 min - 100/3

- 21st - 30th - 9/2

To lead at

20 mins -

Chelsea - 5/2 - Liverpool -11/2

30 mins -

Chelsea - 17/10 - Liverpool - 9/2

Redcard in match - 12/5

Longhot: Liverpool to come from behind to win 22/1

Very nice astrology; well done, astrogooner.

Many thanks Saturnhead.


The eagle-eyed among the readers, and indeed the Virgos, would have noted that the goal action at both ends happened during both the 17th and 26th minutes with good saves from Liverpool in the 17th and Chelsea in the 26th.

Unfortunately, no goals so far!

17 mins: Hazard making things happen. Slips it to Ivanovic, and points to where he wants the return. Few inches overhit and goalie gets there.

26 mins: Should have scored! Brilliant football. Gerrard with a rapier ball, opens Chelsea up, such vision. Moreno's onto it, on the left. He should have shot first time, but he takes a touch and then has a shot - superb save Courtois.

Edit:

1st goal at 56 mins?
