Prediction League ESPL - Registration & Wigan Athletic (A)

Ladies & Gentlemen (and Masky!), it is once again time for the return of ESPL - is it me or does the summer break seem to get shorter and shorter each year? Our return to the Championship (and the return of relentlessness Sat/Tues games) felt nowhere near as disastrous as last time, thanks to a good (if limited effort) at staying up. However, having played the sensible card regarding the transfer budget - we now expect to be competing at the top of the table for the upcoming season. We start at Wigan on Saturday!

The Emiliano Sala Prediction League (ESPL) gives the chance to predict City's league fixtures in the form of a lighthearted (or deadly serious) competition. Its a good laugh and hopefully gets some of you to take an active part in the board a bit more! Comment your commitment and you'll be placed in Division I or II (as described below) depending on where you finished last season. New members welcome!

Any suggestions for changes/proposals to the rules are welcome!
