We won't have to predict Newcastle games in the prediction league and will save ourselves throwing away 3 points every week!
Can I suggest we rule Paul Ince out of any managerial vacancy. From the BBC website... Newcastle will stay up - Ince Stoke 1-0 Newcastle please log in to view this image Paul Ince Former MK Dons manager on BBC Radio 5 live “I think Newcastle’s home form will keep them up. They are strong at home and I think they will definitely stay up.”
Nev - can you confirm that if we are relegated to the Championship we will be predicting Championship games next season. Its our game and we are taking it with us when we go. No problem if the tiebreaker is a random Premier League game.
I'm torn on what to do. It would make sense to have it for championship games. The downside is that it might be less likely to attract outsiders which I think adds to the fun. Plus, it would rule Lawro and Merson out, and a big thing when JPF and I came up with the idea was competing against Lawro.
I don't know. It would really be funny to watch Lawro and Merson drop through the divisions as they are forecasting on the wrong games. Merson probably wouldn't realise it anyway. Or you could always e-mail them and invite them to predict on the Championship games.
