what an absolute berk

Man City Arsenal Liverpool Newcastle Man Utd Chelsea Tottenham Brighton Aston Villa Brentford Bournemouth Burnley Crystal Palace Fulham West Ham Wolves Everton Nottm Forest Luton Sheff Utd Top Scorer - Erling Haaland Golden Glove - Alisson Most Goals From Outside the Box - Maddison & De Bruyne Most Assists - Odegaard Most Red Cards (Player) - James Tarkowski (Everton) Most Red Cards (Club) - Wolves Most Penalties Conceded (Club) - Luton Most Own Goals (Club) - Nottm Forest Man City to be clear winners, but I think Arsenal will be closer this time around and perhaps not tail off as early as last season. Suspect Liverpool/Newcastle/Man Utd could all be interchangeable, and I think those 3 positions will only be decided on GW37 or GW38. Chelsea have no Europe so could arguably be involved in that top 4 fight all the way to the end. I think Postecoglou will have a good season with Spurs, but may lose games where they are drawing, or draw when they are winning. Opted for Brighton and Villa in that order based on their European participation - either way I'll be interested to see how they cope with the added games, and how it takes its toll on their squads. Reckon Burnley have a good first season back under Kompany, don't think they'll be in any danger of relegation at all. Next bunch of teams - Palace/Fulham/West Ham - similarly all interchangeable and perhaps good runs of form at some point in the season will keep them safe, along with picking up a point or 3 with some levels of inconsistency, but not enough to get dragged in to the relegation battle. Despite the lack of transfers at West Ham, I think they'll eventually be okay. Despite losing Zaha, think Palace still have enough about them to be safe. The final 6 I think are in for a rough ride. Wolves just seem to have lost all spark and off-field issues always end up filtering their way down on to the players/the pitch. I don't see enough in Everton to improve on last season, and perhaps will only go down purely because there are 3 teams worse than them. Would love Luton to do well and surprise everyone by surviving, but I just don't see it. Perhaps a couple of surprise victories along the way, but nothing sustained to keep them up. Sheff Utd seem to be losing a fair few players, without adequate replacements I think they'll come straight back down.

Knowing @CaaC (John) he'd probably be thinking @Dan actually owes him £10k+ if it comes off

£10 to bet, John!

Am I the only one that won this weekend?

Game 11 - 70th Game 12 - 20th

GAME 11 - COPENHAGEN vs SPARTA PRAGUE - TUESDAY 8th AUGUST, 19.00 (BST) GAME 12 - PSV vs STURM GRAZ - TUESDAY 8th AUGUST, 19.30 (BST) ***any predictions made after kick-off will not count*** @DeadLinesman @Mel81x @Lucas @6666 @Dr. Gonzo @Michael @Redcanuck @Devil @Pugwash @Reluctant Striker @CaaC (John) @Beelzebub @Devil-Dick Willie @JoshBRFC @Viva la FCB @Pyfish @Bluewolf @Tommy @Rucksackfranzose @OrangeKhrush

Game 9's first goal came in the 47th minute, but no-one close enough to nab any points. Game 10 though, we had plenty! A first goal in the 23rd minute meant @nudge gets 3 points, @Faithcore gets 2 points, @Toinho with 1 point, and the following players below also in receipt of points... 1 point 1 point 1 point 2 points 2 points Table after Game 10: @nudge joins @Rucksackfranzose at the top with her first exact pick, while 7 others claimed their first points of the season.

So sorry for your loss and condolences to your family Hopefully you find solace in that he isn't in any pain any more and you got to see him one final time.

Never bet on your own team!

Iove this shit. Happy days. Probably the best it'll get for me this season

I already have doubts about my squad I took out Leeds players after seeing one of @Lucas's posts earlier. May bring one or two in mid-Sept.

Yeah will PM you and @JoshBRFC. @The Palace Fan @Bluebird Hewitt @Dan you also in? If so I'll PM you too.

I'm happy to hold the funds. I took Tella in and out my team about 3 times

Happy to join in with the £5 stake...

Yeah, it was always dodgy.

With their corrupt owner, it was only a matter of time...

Saw on BBC News last night - some of the people they interviewed said they'd still vote for Trump even if he was imprisoned

I think it's lighter than that gold Wolves have. Plus white shorts.

GAME 9 - BRISTOL CITY vs PRESTON - SATURDAY 5th AUGUST, 15.00 (BST) GAME 10 - LEEDS vs CARDIFF - SUNDAY 6th AUGUST, 14.30 (BST) ***any predictions made after kick-off will not count*** @DeadLinesman @Mel81x @Lucas @6666 @Dr. Gonzo @Michael @Redcanuck @Devil @Pugwash @Reluctant Striker @CaaC (John) @Beelzebub @Devil-Dick Willie @JoshBRFC @Viva la FCB @Pyfish @Bluewolf @Tommy @Rucksackfranzose @OrangeKhrush

Game 7 surprisingly had no goals, but perhaps even more surprisingly, there was one winner! 3 points! Game 8's first goal was 31st minute, but there were no winners here. Table after Game 8: @Rucksackfranzose flies into 1st place, and is also the first player to get an exact pick.

Happy to do a season bet.

Bournemouth Third: Monaco Away: Leicester Third: Guarantee anyone any money that Whiskey comes in and says Leicester's kit is shit or embarrassing...
