runadrum Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 The idea is to predict the finishing positions of all 20 Premier League clubs in the forthcoming season. Scoring is as follows :- each correct position scores 0 one place out scores 1 (1x1) two places out scores 4 (2x2) three places out scores 9 (3x3) and so on for all places, so ten places out scores 100, and an unlikely nineteen places out would score 361. All 20 predicted v actual places are counted and (hopefully obviously) it is the lowest total score that wins and I'll put up a winner takes all prize of £25 (prize only open to existing regular posters). I'll post a league table every few weeks. To create a tiebreaker in case it is needed please also nominate one team to finish top of each of the other English leagues (Championship, Div 1, Div 2) to which the same scoring system will apply. Note, one team only from the other leagues to be nominated but only used in the event of a tie in the main competition. Happy to go first :- 1. Chelsea 2. Man Utd 3. Arsenal 4. Tottenham 5. Liverpool 6. Everton 7. Portsmouth 8. Aston Villa 9. Blackburn 10. Man City 11. Newcastle 12. Sunderland 13. Middlesbrough 14. Wigan 15. Fulham 16. West Ham 17. West Brom 18. Bolton 19. Stoke 20. Hull (Tie breakers - Championship Reading, Div 1 Leeds, Div 2 Bournemouth) Deadline for entries is midnight on Friday August 15th 2008. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked at Coral and the season match bets and found that if the table created so far ends up being correct then an accumulator for each of the season match bets i.e. Manchester United to finish above Chelsea, Hull to finish above Stoke, would return at odds of just over 241/1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
