    From next season I think we should start a predictions league for all premier league matches.

    Basically something similar to the World Cup predictions contest where we highlight which team will win that week, or if you think it'll be a draw.

    We list our predictions weekly and I can calculate scores after every week of games.

    1 point for each correct match prediction + post your final league table prediction (1 point for each correct position correctly predicted).

    I know fuck all about soccer, but I'm thinking about joining.

    Mark me down for Liverpool winning 2 out of every 3 games and ManU and Man City losing 2 out of every 3.

    Any guesses as to how far out of first place I'll finish with that strategy?

    TBH, i just really don't have the interest in the english prem. It's shit and predictable without any good vs evil subtexts to give it social meaning.

    I'll play though, just for you mate.:lol:

    Why don't we start the tournament with a final table prediction worth 25% of our overall score or something? Could do it thusly - your prediction for each team is worth between 5 to zeo points depending on how many places away from their final position you put them (bang on = 5, one away = 4, five away =1, >5 away = zero). Then just adjust it at the end to have it fir the % we decide the table prediction should be worth.

    A point for win lose or draw. As someone who has ran a prediction league before, the more complicated you make it, the more of a bitch it is to tally up each week. Trust me. Keep it simple. 1 point for correct result, 0 for the wrong result.

    Is there are closing date for entries? I don't see much point in making predictions for league placings when the season has just ended and no-one has been bought or sold yet.

    I'm in. But i personally feel that any prediction should be done before the first game of the season kicks off.

    This is my favourite time of year. Arsenal always #1 in the rankings. Alphabetical order, and all.

    I am still in for this contest.
