I wish the Prem games were so clear cut. Most of this weekend's games had testimonies for both sides and were very difficult to sort out. At least I thought so.

I feel that the Sports section is like a playground for creative thinking. We do not always come up the right answer, but beside all the fun we have, there is always the reward of learning to look at a problem from new angles.

So keep those predictions coming!

I was being sloppy and you're right about it being radical. I found in the past this kind of radiclity was rather weak, especially when the LOH is also the L7 .

I also noticed that Mars is conj POS. Not something I'd usually look at but have you found it to work in the past?

I looked at both POF and POS throughout the last season and came across the main sig conjoing POS several times but they didn't seem to make any difference.

Oh, I absolutely agree and generally I don't mind getting results wrong, but for those of us taking part in the Guardian competition it's much more significant. We need those points for our team!

I was in a rush this morning and I've edited my last post in an attempt to make it a bit more intelligible.

Talking of creative thinking, I quite liked Susie's associating Potters with Earth signs

Thanks for the compliment Gem!

I've been thinking.... why not join us in our little "creative think-tank" league - it's oodles of fun, and I'm sure 6 heads think better than 5????

Susie

Thanks for the invitation but I've been even struggling as you see to get the result right and marvelling at you all managing to squeeze the number of goals out of those uninspiring looking charts...
Andrew may be up to it to make it 6 heads

Any more creative ideas for tonight's match?

Andrew may be up to it to make it 6 heads

It's all 6's and 7's on this side of the North Sea at the moment.

Seeing that the Moon is in the exaltation of Venus, and this is the same planet as the lady of POF and lady of the Hour; this planet also being Lady of the 7th - I give my guess of victory to the guests, Villa. This might be supported by the Moon's hard aspect to Pluto.

Yes, good point. Oh dear, and I've also found some previous examples of Moon square Pluto where the faves lost. I'd gone for a Spurs win but now I'm not so sure...

You are funny, Andrew

My "guestimate" for todays match - 2-1 for Villa. Reasoning is the exact same as Andrews......

Good luck to us all!

And Andrew - you're coming into the think tank, or what??

If Villa win, then the pattern of the first two weekends' results will be repeated again, i.e. 6 faves, 3 underdogs, 1 draw. However, Villa haven't won at White Hart Lane since 2000. Hmmm...

And the Moon is inconjunct POF. Quincunx is usually irrelevant but in this case, aspects between Moon, Pluto and POF are partile, which may not be good for Spurs, much as I want them to win. But then both Moon and Pluto are cadent, the effects may not be strong. There're positive aspects for Spurs as I wrote in my earlier post but I entirely agree with what Andrew wrote too.
Conclusion: my head is now at 6s and 7s

Hello gang,

Well I'll be diferent again. Tottenham win for me.

I'm regarding the Moon as void.
Venus in a cadent house, less than 4 degrees from the the descendant.
Jupiter in a cardinal house, less than 4 degrees from MC.
Jupiter in a cardinal house is stronger.-favors home/fav
L1 conjunct POF. (I'm using the day/night calculation as I don't know how to swap it round on this version of S Fire )
