I know. If everyone made regular predictions for the next month then maybe we can scrap earlier predictions so that the points/played average can be used. The problem is when someone misses a week or two, it can skew their average in their favour. I shall keep a table for both scoring systems and see how things pan out...

In terms of scores I think it would maybe just work best to say someone had to have done predictions for 50% of thee games per season? additionally you could have a champions league for those that had say done over 80% means you have to have done a reasonable number so lets class show through ; ). Don't scrap scores so far RD, that's a bit harsh on you/Jah/Otta etc who have done good

Agree with minimum participation. CL too. That could kick in when CL last 16 knock-out starts in Spring.

How about when someone misses a week they are given that week's average score? I would've thought neither too great an advantage or disadvantage. I will knock up a table later to see how that would've affected scores up to now...

Man U 2 Arsenal 2 (probably wishful thinking on my part but a point would be most welcome)

Fulham 1 Everton 2

Norwich 1 Stoke 0

Sunderland 1 Aston Villa 1

Swansea 1 Chelsea 4

Spuds 2 Wigan 1

West Ham 1 Man City 3

QPR 1 Reading 1

Liverpool 1 Newcastle 2

West Brom 2 Saints 1

Robbie Keane (?20 million), Alberto Aquilani (?20 million), Downing (?20 million), Henderson (?18 million), Carroll (?35 million), Adam (?9 million) and Enrique (?7 million)


That is a shocking line up (and it doesn't even include ?35m Caroll).


Biggest problem is they are going to have to take huge losses in order to unload any of these players, but IMO, there is no point throwing good money after bad, so just take the loss on the chin, and save on their undoubtedly high wages.

Hmmmm.....has Hugenuts put a spanner in the works? He's not even in the fecking competition and yet you're blindly following his rules. I think he's having a little chuckle at us over in Singapore.

MANCHESTER United are reportedly lining up a ?12million January move for Celtic star Victor Wanyama.



Hoops boss Neil Lennon valued the midfielder at ?25m, but United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is seemingly ready to make his move and test the water with a bid of around half that

Don't worry Jah, nothing is set in stone at the mo, just open to ideas. What started off as a bit of fun is getting a bit more competitive :)

This latest table incorporates average scores (shown in red) for players that miss a week.

It also includes a minimum participation rule. I'm going to set the bar higher than ???? suggested 50%, and make it 75%.

This hopefuly will encourage players to participate rather than rely on getting an average score.

Anyone with less than 75% (shown in indigo) wouldn't qualify for CL and final table consideration...

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
