Hello all
With just two weeks until the start of the new football league season, this competition is back for another run to see who can follow the previous winners “boscombebotn”, “yesyescherry”, “Winsor Cherry”, “DJ” & “jalalagood”.
The rules remain the same as last season: You predict a team to come top and bottom of each division.
For example:
If you have chosen AFCB for instance to finish top of the Premier League and they sit top of the table, you score no penalty points.
If you choose Southampton to finish bottom and they sit in 17th in the table, then you are 3 points out and hence fined those 3 points.
This is done for all the four main divisions and the National. So 10 selections to be made, 5 top teams and 5 bottom teams.
The entry accumulating the lowest total of penalty points at the end of the season will win the competition. No prizes for this one, just bragging rights.
Jalalagood’s winning selections last year were as follows and his winning total was the best so far beating the 25, 33, 28 & 15 in previous years: Man City - 0, Huddersfield - 4, Wolves - 0, Barnsley - 2, Wigan - 0, Oldham - 3, Luton - 1, Morecambe - 2, Tranmere - 1, Guiesley - 0, Total points - 13.
Entries can be amended up to the closing date should any late signings change opinions of any early posters.
I will post again below with a full list of teams in each division to hopefully avoid some people getting teams in the wrong divisions as has happened previously.
Closing date for entries (or any amended entries): 3:00pm Saturday 11th August – and yes I am aware that this is a week after the Football League starts but for most of us that is when the season will really start. I will post standings updates during the season.
The thread will be regularly bumped until the closing date for entries.
Good luck all.
