Game 13 - Oxford United 3-1 Northampton Town

Today saw a tough game against Oxford, and Chester, in an optimistic mood, went for a draw. Another one he didn't get - and surely it's about time he predicted a win?!

Game 12 - Northampton Town 3-4 Hereford Town

For today's game Chester predicted Cobblers to lose. At half time, with Cobblers dominant and leading 3-0, you'd have thought this was another prediction gone horribly wrong. Sadly, Cobblers imploded, Hereford scored four goals in the second half, and Chester's prediction came good.

Game 11 - Cheltenham Town 1-0 Northampton Town

Chester's back. That Liverpool result must've really knocked him for six! I'm sad to report, however, that Chester correctly predicted that Cobblers would lose. That's three on the trot now!

Game 9 - Northampton Town 1-2 Chesterfield

It looks like Chester had the day off for this one (as opposed to his usual off day), because after several searches I am unable to find a prediction from him in today's Chron.

Game 8 - Northampton Town 2-0 Bradford City

Four bad picks on the trot now for Chester. He said draw, and Cobblers went and won. And not only won, but scored two and kept a clean sheet. Long may this continue - for the results, not predictions!

PS Chester doesn't normally do cup predictions, but he got one right on Wednesday: Northampton knocked Liverpool, 2005's champions of Europe who at the time of the game sat almost 70 places above Northampton in the football league, three divisions higher, out of the Carling Cup after a thrilling penalty shoot-out in front of Anfield's Kop. Have THAT, big boys!

Game 7 - Shrewsbury Town 3-1 Northampton Town

A bad day for the Cobblers (second defeat of the season) and a bad day for Chester (he said it would be a draw). Methinks both need to pull out their fingers! This is not the kind of hat trick at which Chester should be aiming.
