Last reminder! Entries close TOMORROW, Friday, at 11.59pm … there are more forums this year taking part than ever, a massive 36 already have the 5 minimum, hopeful of one more (at least) getting there. Remember it's an average forum entry this season, not an individual player competition - where there has been massive entries that means a real representative forum selection. We’ll get this forum average to you next week … and kick-off the game! Good luck everyone, promised impartiality from my side ! daib0/David

No more entries please, we are now logging everyone onto the big Sunderland automated computer programme. So what happens now? We’ve been asked a few times … so for regulars to recap once again, and for new readers to know what’s going on. OK, we’ve waited till Saturday morning; in a couple of days (hopefully not much more) we go through all entries, bear in mind patience, it's literally hundreds of them (there always are mistakes such as having 2 Norwichs but no Stoke, having only 19 by forgetting a team etc so we have to get back to individual posters). Then we make the forum average - every team placed by every contributor has a number position and we take the exact average. If, say, Swansea comes out average of 8.5 place and next West Ham 8.61 then we know we place the Hammers one position lower. We can't predict points gaps of course - if you think there will be a 15 gap between 6th and 7th we can't account for that! But all twenty teams come out in order ... and I will faithfully transfer your average list on this thread as soon as I can. Forums by entry coming up soon too so everyone knows how many on each forum have participated. All forums will vary, that's the beauty - so we calculate the 'real' table with your vision of a your forum table and we calculate how far every team is out and thus give the points, probably from the second league match onwards or possibly the 3rd game if it takes us that long. A lot of astute guessing this year I can see. But the league positions will of course change all season so our forum table changes all season, and as stated in the initial post we award extra bonus points at the end of every month - and that really helps to sort out the top firing forums! But it's all just a bit of fun, don't take it TOO seriously! Also we've had cases where a forum has been, well, almost dire one season but the next gone on to medal positions (e.g. Man Utd and Sunderland) !! A reminder LAST SEASON – the top ten and their final points Position – Total Points – ‘helping’ bonus points – name of forum + team NATIONAL FORUM Honorary Gold Medal – Shared!! • 1 37 11 DCFC Fans Derby County • 1 37 9 Toffee Talk Everton NATIONAL FORUM Honorary Silver Medal – • 3 46 12 United Lounge Manchester United NATIONAL FORUM Honorary Bronze Medal – shared! • 4 48 2 Foxes Talk Leicester City • 4 48 6 BlackCatChat Sunderland NATIONAL FORUM Honorary Diploma of Honour I • 6 51 3 BaggiesZone West Bromwich Albion NATIONAL FORUM Honorary Diploma of Honour II – shared! • 7 52 4 Not 606 Hull Board Hull City • 7 52 2 ToonForum Newcastle United Then … • 9 53 1 WFC Forums Watford FC • 10 58 0 Tottenham Hotspur Unofficial Supporters Site Tottenham Hotspur Etc. etc. Enjoy the first day of the league season!!! daib0/David
An IBM Supercomputer and the Sunderland Black Cat Chat forum admin man and myself have spent quite a few days cogitating on the entries made into the Competition. A couple of entries could not finally be accepted, or did not get back to clarify doubts, but we finally have had a massive 431 entries from 39 Forums from the 40-something invited. Unfortunately 2 of the forums didn't hit the minimum number of entrants and lost out in Round one and a handful didn’t even get one prediction back. But the big, big majority got into double figures and some even passed twenty which makes for a fantastic representation. So the number shown at the side of your forum name is the number of entrants for the forum to get this all important average – if you want to know exact selections for any others (local rivals, soft spots etc) just tell me and I’ll happily post them on here, or even all of them ... 18 Not 606 QPR Board Queens Park Rangers 1 Chelsea 2 Arsenal 3 Man City 4 Man Utd 5 Liverpool 6 Tottenham 7 Everton 8 Southampton 9 Swansea 10 Stoke 11 West Ham 12 Crystal Palace 13 Newcastle 14 West Brom 15 Aston Villa 16 Sunderland 17 Leicester City 18 Watford 19 Norwich City 20 Bournemouth What would happen if ALL entrants were put TOGETHER? – well, here is the combined wisdom of those 431 people. According to all of us, this is how the League table will look after the last game has been played. Apologies if your team is not where you’d like to see it! 441 Combined say: 1 Chelsea 2 Arsenal 3 Man Utd 4 Man City 5 Liverpool 6 Tottenham 7 Southampton 8 Everton 9 Swansea 10 Stoke 11 Crystal Palace 12 West Ham 13 Newcastle 14 West Brom 15 Aston Villa 16 Sunderland 17 Leicester City 18 Norwich City 19 Bournemouth 20 Watford And …. here we are after the 1st Week's results!

UPDATE – after game 2 There won’t be an update every week, but as we are at the start there are going to be wild variations, so might be fun to look in. Having said that, the Posh boys have certainly started the new campaign fiercely! Leeds, Leicester and Norwich have also kicked off very nicely, don’t think any of these have been at/near the top in previous seasons, and the best of the new boys are Extreme Football Forum … But it’s a long, long way to go, don’t get complacent anybody!

Diablo, my last minute change of swapping City down to 4th and the Arsenal up to 2nd don't look like a good punt so far

Premier Game Middle of Sept 2015 Hi everyone, here is the update following our International break. As you can see, the north-east are in a sorry state right now, but we all know things can change fast. And absolutely no-one predicted Chelsea dangling with relegation!!! Here is that table: Played - GD - Points 1 Man City 5 11 15 2 Leicester 5 4 11 3 Man Utd 5 3 10 4 Arsenal 5 2 10 5 West Ham 5 5 9 6 Crystal Pal 5 2 9 7 Everton 5 3 8 8 Swansea 5 2 8 9 Norwich 5 -1 7 10 Liverpool 5 -3 7 11 Saints 5 0 6 12 Tottenham 5 0 6 13 Watford 5 -1 6 14 West Brom 5 -3 5 15 Aston Villa 5 -2 4 16 Bournem’th 5 -3 4 17 Chelsea 5 -5 4 18 Stoke 5 -4 2 19 Sunderland 5 -5 2 20 Newcastle 5 -5 2 Coming up then is our master table. I bet the Posh boys wish their team was as good as THEY are!! And unbelievable that LCFC Foxes talk are 3rd and below their actual team, bravo on both counts. Unusual to see my own forum - Royals Rendezvous - in the top half as we’re usually pretty naff at this particular game! Well done to everyone! Before the big forum table, a reminder of the first Bonus points of the season for 1st September (taken off your scores to get them even better) which were: 3 The Posh Forum Peterborough United 2 Tudor Talk Hemel Hempstead 1 Arsenal Fan Forum Arsenal 1 Foxes Talk Leicester City 1 Extreme Football Forum All Teams 1 LUFC Talk Leeds United Last Update: Sep 15th Pos Pts B/P Name Team 1 87 3 The Posh Forum Peterborough United 2 88 2 Tudor Talk Hemel Hempstead 3 89 1 Arsenal Fan Forum Arsenal 3 89 1 Foxes Talk Leicester City 5 93 1 Extreme Football Forum All Teams 5 93 1 LUFC Talk Leeds United 7 94 0 Back Henry Street Blackpool 7 94 0 Joys and Sorrows Birmingham City 7 94 0 Cardiff City Fans Forum Cardiff City 10 96 0 Not 606 Norwich Board Norwich City 11 98 0 Royals Rendezvous Reading 11 98 0 United Lounge Manchester United 11 98 0 WFC Forums Watford 14 100 0 CourtOffside Bournemouth 14 100 0 Viking Chat Doncaster Rovers 14 100 0 Friends of Fulham Fulham 14 100 0 Not 606 QPR Board Queens Park Rangers 18 102 0 Talk of the Tarn Barnsley 18 102 0 North Stand Chat Brighton 18 102 0 The Longside Burnley 18 102 0 Claret and Banter Bradford City 18 102 0 Toffee Talk Everton 18 102 0 Sports262 - Luton Town FC Luton Town 18 102 0 Wolves Forum Wolverhampton Wanderers 18 102 0 This Northern Soul Wigan Athletic 26 104 0 Rovers Talk Blackburn Rovers 26 104 0 The Holmesdale Crystal Palace 26 104 0 DCFC Fans Derby County 26 104 0 KopWorld Liverpool 26 104 0 MCFC Fans Manchester City 26 104 0 Tottenham Hotspur Unofficial Supporters Site Spurs 32 106 0 BlackCatChat Sunderland 32 106 0 Cardiff City On-Line Cardiff City 32 106 0 Not 606 – Southampton Board Southampton 32 106 0 West Bromwich Albion West Bromwich Albion 36 110 0 Toon Forum Newcastle United 36 110 0 Not 606 Hull Board Hull City Lastly, so many people have asked for the possibility of an individual score that we’ve succumbed - at the END OF SEASON we will give you every 400+ personal entries of everyone!! Possibly too at the half-way stage too or around Christmas if our Sunderland computer wizard can get the time to do it!!! Enjoy the footie coming up !!! daibo/David
Premier Game Update – roughly two-thirds way through September 2015 It is all very interesting this season. Good to see underdogs, even good underdogs, do well so personally I’ll say it’s nice to see West Ham and Leicester outbattling some of the big boys. But it’s still very early days yet of course … Last Update: Sep 21st Here is our table League table from the BBC site from which this update is based: Team – Played – GD – Points 1 Man City 6 10 15 2 Man Utd 6 4 13 3 West Ham 6 6 12 4 Leicester 6 4 12 5 Arsenal 6 0 10 6 Everton 6 3 9 7 Swansea 6 2 9 8 Crystal Palace 6 1 9 9 Tottenham 6 1 9 10 Watford 6 0 9 11 Norwich 6 -1 8 12 West Brom 6 -2 8 13 Liverpool 6 -3 8 14 Bournemouth 6 -1 7 15 Chelsea 6 -3 7 16 Southampton 6 -1 6 17 Aston Villa 6 -3 4 18 Stoke 6 -4 3 19 Newcastle 6 -6 2 20 Sunderland 6 -7 2 So how does the real Premier league table affect our Positions game? Quite a lot! Big news is that the Posh Forum have just slightly been displaced at the top of the Forum League – it’s now the Arsenal Fan Forum (amazing since it’s their first season with us!) calling the shots jointly with the Leicester Foxes Talk site. The Tudor Talk forum of Hemel Hempstead are always invited because they are without doubt one of the best predicting forums over the last few seasons, and there is no reason why a non-league forum can’t equally well know their stuff. Also delightful to see the Brum Joys and Sorrows group well up there on their first involvement with us as well. Then come a number of the usual suspects, including my own Royals forum that I can’t ever remember in top dozen in previous seasons. Sunderland and Newcastle forums were both in the gloom just a month ago, but the Black Cats are pulling away from the bottom. The Toons may well do so shortly too, these tables are still very violatile. Anyway it’s all just a bit of fun, please don’t let it spoil your week! So here goes: Position - Pts (incl.. bonus points) - B/P alone – Forum Name & Team 1 97 1 Arsenal Fan Forum Arsenal 1 97 1 Foxes Talk Leicester City 3 98 2 Tudor Talk Hemel Hempstead 4 99 3 The Posh Forum Peterborough United 5 100 0 Joys and Sorrows Birmingham City 6 102 0 Cardiff City Fans Forum Cardiff City 7 104 0 Back Henry Street Blackpool 8 105 1 Extreme Football Forum All Teams 8 105 1 LUFC Talk Leeds United 10 106 0 United Lounge Manchester United 11 108 0 Royals Rendezvous Reading 11 108 0 CourtOffside Bournemouth 11 108 0 The Longside Burnley 11 108 0 Friends of Fulham Fulham 11 108 0 Not 606 Norwich Board Norwich City 11 108 0 WFC Forums Watford 11 108 0 West Bromwich Albion West Bromwich Albion 18 110 0 Viking Chat Doncaster Rovers 18 110 0 This Northern Soul Wigan Athletic 20 112 0 The Holmesdale Crystal Palace 20 112 0 Claret and Banter Bradford City 20 112 0 Not 606 QPR Board Queens Park Rangers 20 112 0 Tottenham Hotspur Unofficial Supporters Site Spurs 24 114 0 Talk of the Tarn Barnsley 24 114 0 North Stand Chat Brighton 24 114 0 Toffee Talk Everton 24 114 0 Sports262 - Luton Town FC Luton Town 24 114 0 Wolves Forum Wolverhampton Wanderers 29 116 0 BlackCatChat Sunderland 29 116 0 Rovers Talk Blackburn Rovers 29 116 0 DCFC Fans Derby County 29 116 0 KopWorld Liverpool 29 116 0 MCFC Fans Manchester City 34 118 0 Cardiff City On-Line Cardiff City 34 118 0 Not 606 – Southampton Board Southampton 34 118 0 Not 606 Hull Board Hull City 37 120 0 Toon Forum Newcastle United Next update will probably be at the beginning of October so we can include the new bonus points for the end of September.

Another International break, so therefore a good time to make a general update on our Inter-Forum fun game! Right here is the league table. Grim North Eastern Reading, but probably far more of a surprise for Chelsea fans. Palace and Foxes fans must be smiling though, and all three promoted sides last time seem to be sitting more or less comfortably … … Last Update: Oct 8th Key: Team – Played – GD - Points 1 Man City 8 12 18 2 Arsenal 8 6 16 3 Man Utd 8 4 16 4 Crystal Palace 8 4 15 5 Leicester 8 2 15 6 West Ham 8 6 14 7 Everton 8 4 13 8 Tottenham 8 4 13 9 Southampton 8 3 12 10 Liverpool 8 -2 12 11 Swansea 8 0 10 12 Watford 8 -1 10 13 Norwich 8 -2 9 14 Stoke 8 -2 9 15 Bournemouth 8 -2 8 16 Chelsea 8 -5 8 17 West Brom 8 -5 8 18 Aston Villa 8 -5 4 19 Sunderland 8 -10 3 20 Newcastle 8 -11 3 Based on this ‘table’ we make our Main Forums table. What’s happening in the fan world then?! The Foxes still flying and the Posh not far behind. Tudor Talk always seem to be competitors to be well respected, and LUFC Talk are accustomed to this game too. Participating for the first time, the Arsenal Fan Forum, Extreme Football Football and Joys and Sorrows are all making a notable start. The next group – Blackpool, Bournemouth, Fulham, Norwich and Cardiff City Forum - are all sitting in there nicely too. Anyone of those or those following on could easily make a spurt ahead. Well done to all those just mentioned, but I’m sure things will change, they always do. The fact that if bonus points were allocated just a week later they would have gone to some other teams proves that! The two organizing forums – Reading & Sunderland – now once again down in lower half obscurity which is where they almost always are!!
