A slightly different game. Rules are simple. Pick one team each game weekend who will win their game. That's all you need to do- just post the name of one team you think will win (not draw or lose). That's all... sounds simple. Here's the catch. If the team you pick loses or draws you are eliminated/out of the game. The goal is to go all season without getting eliminated... OR be the last one standing (whichever happens first). To help you out- here are this weekends matches: Man Utd V Swansea Leicester V Everton QPR V Hull Stoke V Aston Villa West Brom V Sunderland West Ham V Tottenham Arsenal V Crystal Palace Liverpool V Southampton Newcastle V Man City Burnley V Chelsea
So many new players integrating and Southampton will have a grudge/something to prove. I expect us to beat them but it isn't a sure thing.
It would make it more interesting if you were only allowed to pick each team once home & away. So it'd be a little more strategic than simply picking the big guns every week. Not trying to complicate things for you though I'll pick Man Utd like everybody else though.
Arsenal. Best way onve first few weeks are over is to alternate the top 4 sides or just pick whichever side plays qpr.
I had actually considered that- but thought it would make it more complicated, not just for me, but anyone playing. I figured upsets do happen. Sunderland had a few last season that would have caught a few people out. 38 games in a season... plenty of time for people to get eliminated even picking big teams.
That's a good point. Although come gameweek 23, are you going to be able to remember who you've already picked or are we expecting Milk to keep tabs and put it in the OP so we all know
