Pilgrims' Patter

It's been ten weeks since that playoff final at York. That went quick. The season starts again on Saturday so it's time to start up the Prediction League for 2022/3.
For those who haven't played before, it has been all about predicting the results and attendances of Boston United's competitive first team games throughout the season. As the season goes on you accumulate points and the winner is the person with the most points at the end of the season.
There's no entry fee as it's just a bit of fun.
All predictions must be made before kick off - although I'm open to bribes of a pint of Batemans XXXB or Dark Lord to accept predictions that are a few minutes late. ;D
You get 3 points for the correct score or 1 point for the correct result.
For attendance predictions it is 10 points if you get the attendance spot on or 3 points if within 5% or 1 point if within 10%.
Soon after each game I usually managed to process the scores and update the points table and post it on Patter.
You are allowed to edit your prediction right up until kickoff time.
In Cup games with extra time or penalties it's the score at the end of normal time that counts.
If a game is postponed or abandoned then all predictions for that match are null and void.
Just post your predictions in the thread on here for each match.
Here's my prediction for Saturday's game:
Boston United 1-1 Southport (1700)

Here are the points after:
Boston United 3-5 Southport (1575)
Not too surprisingly nobody predicted the correct score - the only other time Boston have lost their opening league game 5-3 was back in 1938. Only four people predicted a Southport win and eleven people the attendance within 5%. So not many points scored.
