Evening all.
The clocks are going back, the floodlights are coming on and winter is definitely on its way. But we all have football, so we'll be OK.... just bring a hat... and possibly gloves... maybe a scarf? For the 56 remaining players, Liverpool (31) are the top pick this week, with Chelsea (9) and Watford (7) flying high in everyone's estimations as well. Good luck to Mark C, Neil, Sophia and Ben, all with their individual predictions, hoping for a strange combination of results so they can walk off with the pot this weekend ...... never going to happen. I've got a busy Sunday coming up, so I'll be back on Monday with the results from the weekend. Good luck. UPDATE - We gained another 3 players late on Friday evening. I know the rule says the cutoff is 6pm, but as it's the start of a new game I've let them in, not out of the kindness of my heart but because I wanted their money.... any complaints? No..... I thought not.
This means we now have a grand total of £820 for the winner. We lost 11 players this weekend, with Bournemouth taking 6 out and only Phil L, of those that had gone it alone, managing to make it through. And just in case you were wondering, Tim was found OK at his desk, having willingly gone for Newcastle and now deeply regretting it. All results can be seen below. For those of you that did make it through, click HERE to make your next prediction and HERE to remind yourself of the one prediction you've made so far. Remember, all picks in by Friday at 6pm. Have a good week UPDATE........ we now have 67 players, a few people were very late entering but as it's the first week I'm going to let it slide, just to get their money. Normal weeks, if you've not predicted by 6pm on Friday, you get the team bottom of the table.
-------------------------------------------- Thanks for joining in everyone. Here we go with 'GAME 2', 67 players and a rollover pot of £820 If this one finishes with another rollover, it'll mean we have to split the pot, so fingers crossed we have an outright winner this time..... preferably me. Lots of you are playing it safe this weekend, making Man City (26) the favourite choice, with Liverpool (15) and Arsenal (12) coming in after them.... like it was some kind of popularity competition....?!? All predictions and fixtures can be seen below. 4 players have gone it alone this week, so could 'possibly' walk away with the pot..... except Tim, who doesn't stand a chance, having gone for Newcastle... In fact, can someone pop in and check on him, I think he may have just fallen asleep on his keyboard? I'll be back on Monday night after the Arsenal game with all the results. Have a great weekend Cheers and Good Luck 53 players at 4.53pm this afternoon - 'WOOHOO'
7 players at 4.53pm this afternoon - 'Oh Poop' Burnley's lose this afternoon (despite over 7 minutes of extra time being played) means we have our first rollover of the season. The pot currently stands at £520 and hopefully this rollover will take it somewhere north of £800, so still eligible for one single winner, rather than a split pot (when we go over £1000). There are no games next week, as the Premier League pauses for the England UEFA Nations League games against Croatia and Spain. So you have a bit of extra time to get me your fivers but why not get it done today and stop me having to pester you with numerous emails as the next games get closer...... go on! I'll send another email out this coming week with the bank details, in case anyone has forgotten them but if you know anyone else who'd like to join in (and can respond to emails in a timely fashion), send them the RULES and get them SIGNED UP. To summarise, having got further than I have for quite a while.... bugger! |
