    Dear Sirs and Sirs dressed as Madams (we all know)...

    SOMEBODY HAS TO BEAT LAWRO. You may think he's some kind of dribbling Gargamel with a melty face and overflowing chest hair, and he is all those things, but he is also actually very good at his predicting job. On our board, we all predict every league game's result each weekend, and score the same way as Lawro is scored on the BBC Sport page (3 for the right result and correct score , 1 for getting the result right, 0 for being a smelly little bitch with the wrong result). We have three divisions, with promotion at the end of the month. There is manager of the months etc etc, but the big prize is the last month of the season. If you win, you win the whole thing. So anybody could join up now and easily win.

    That's all very well and good, and I encourage you to see if you can beat Lawro, who has won the top league for the last TWO ****ING MONTHS IN A ROW, but this thread is primarily about another reason for joining. I am creating a European Cup for our board's prediction league. If you support a team who is not Newcastle, you automatically qualify for the group stages just by entering. The groups are announced at the end of November.

    I know every board, pretty much, has a prediction league of similar proportions, so all I'm asking is you stop being a lazy little ****, and use your insurmountable brain power to copy and paste your predictions from your home board onto this thread, or straight on our page at the link above. If your board doesn't have one, I find the best way is to wait til some schmuck wastes two seconds of his life to copy and paste the fixtures, then copy and change the scores.

    Here's an example (for you to mercilessly steal, copy and paste, change scores, whatever your perverts do):

    newcastle 2- 1 Liverpool
    Arsenal 3 v - Burnley
    Chelsea 2 v 1 QPR
    Everton 2 v 0 Swansea
    Hull 0 v 1 Southampton
    Leicester 1 v 1 West Brom
    Stoke 0 v 1 West Ham
    Man City 1 v 1 Man Utd
    Aston Villa 1 v 2 Tottenham
    Crystal Palace 1 v 1 Sunderland

    If someone other than a Toon fan wins our league or Cup, I'll change my Username to MissDaisyButtKiss <ok>

    So in your example Burnley don't even turn up and Arsenal still score only three?

    I copied from Sammy's Silky Skills without checking <laugh>

    To be fair, the way Arsenal play, they aren't scoring more than 3 anyway!

    I'm ahead of him on ours, 2 points better by our scoring :cool:

    Thing is, we do internationals he doesn't, I discount my international score when comparing to his but i'm sure to lose track in with a few more international rounds.

    Yes! Its split into leagues and there is relegation and promotion at the end of every month and scores go back to zero. New players start in the bottom league (currently 3rd division) and its 2 up 2 down every month. The winner is whoever finishes top of the top league in May. Stupidly unfair and totally insane - just the way we like it!

    It does mean though that people can keep joining as late into the season as they like and still stand a chance of being overall champion. If it stays as 3 divisions then someone could join in March, get 2 promotions and win outright in May.

    Edit: One more thing, beware of JPF's rule changes they can happen at anytime and only ever make the game more complicated.

    If anyone is banned from our board they can still play by posting scores in this thread.
