No problems And ... anyone can change their selection up to day before kick-off. Of course, still over two weeks to the start of the Premier league season as well. If you wish to change opinion in the light of transfers etc. then simply write your NEW selection and include it as a NEW post on this thread and I’ll include it as ‘good’; much better than going back and editing your initial post, because I'm bound to miss that! Update coming on SUNDAY ...

Progess Report If, after 533 entries the total guesses are evened-out for a big average, the final league table would look like this: 1. Chelsea 2. Manchester City 3. Manchester United 4. Arsenal 5. Tottenham Hotspur 6. Liverpool 7. Everton 8. Swansea City 9. West Bromwich Albion 10. West Ham United 11. Fulham 12. Newcastle United 13. Southampton 14. Sunderland 15. Aston Villa 16. Norwich City 17. Stoke City 18. Cardiff 19. Hull 20. Crystal Palace But, there are normally one or two surprises, it’s very unlikely that the real table will be as ‘average’ fans say, it hasn’t other seasons - so use your intuition if you haven’t entered yet! Still nearly one week before we start – entries till next Friday, DAY BEFORE PREMIER LEAGUE KICK OFF!! Please check I’ve spelt your name correctly! Or haven’t missed you!

A lot of us have changed our names to include Hull City AFC in them. Most of us still have some or all of our old name still though as well. I'm happy with you keeping my old name on there as I will eventually get round to changing it back some time in a few months.
Good point, thanks for mentioning it, and one we were not contemplating when we set this up!! It's no problem changing you from Macca’s Right Foot but obviously easier for me without changes. But if anyone wants to jot a post saying "Old name XX change me to new name YY" absolutely no problem in re-editing our end. I'll leave it in your hands guys ...
OK everyone, last entries are to be received tomorrow, FRIDAY, by 11.59pm! Itâs not being a âjobsworthâ here, we have to further prepare all 600+ entries over the weekend and if we accept weekend entries weâd never finish! So very sorry, none to be counted on Saturday, itâs been up nearly a month now! Latest figues as of Wednesday 14th August - 621 guesses / from 38 forums (with 37 of these included in the forum average game too. Just a word; what Iâve been doing in some previous posts is only numbering the individual entries. Doesn't mean anything it itself, except that of course the more entries the more chance statistically the best individuals from your forum will be well positioned overall, but anything can happen. And in the separate forum competition part it is not vital having lots at all. It's simply a minimum of 5 needed to get a forum average, but once there reached it's an averaged out forum guess from all predictions on a particular site so ... you're on equal footing whether it's 6 participants or 50 from a forum - all to play for. However, with lots of guesses in an âidiotâ selection does get minimalized! But you never know whatâs in store; if someone has - for example â Palace down for 10th and they did in fact finish 10th, then that person would be 8-10 points better on that guess compared to nearly everyone else - who (really sorry Palace fans on this occasion!) have decided Palace are a choice down for relegation. So points are awarded, then added up, on EVERY team and how far out you are, both for the individual awards and the team forums - thatâs why your best thought-out order is what we're after! Lots of points are BAD; means youâre way out with positions. Ah, but which teams might throw a surprise then, either better or far worse than most expect? I simply dunno ⦠ah, well that's the real beauty of football, and what makes this game fun!! What IS IMPORTANT to know is that after this weekendâs premier league fixtures the first REAL fan points come onto the table and the first national order produced. Have fun â should be up middle of next week. What do I win, youâll say?! Short answer is FAME across the land on over 40 forums ... end of season awards are: 1st placing/s - Honorary Gold Medal 2nd/s - Honorary Silver Medal 3rd/s - Honorary Bronze Medal 4th/s - Diploma of Honour I 5th/s - Diploma of Honour II As farfetched as it may seem, some of the winners last season of our games have incorporated the names of the Medals/Diplomas onto their signature this season, and even done special fan feature interviews !! Easy! You all sit back and relax, we do the work from now on, all during the season!!
