    Not sure how this will go down, but if I run one it will have to fit into what I have. So how about one of 2 options below:

    Option 1. As outlined in the L1 competition for the group matches. For the KO games each round as per L1 comp but when it gets to the last 4 teams, 50% of your bank must be invested in the remaining games. £1,000 allocated for each of the 4 sections (or for the entire group) as reqd, Ideas on variations welcome

    Option 2. Pick 5 matches in the group stage and forecast result.
    If all 5 win you get the winnings for a 5 match accumulator
    If 4 win you get the winnings for a 4 match accumulator
    If 3 win you get the winnings for a treble
    If 2 win you get the winnings for a double
    If 1 win you get the winnings for a single

    For the KO stages as for Option 1

    Again, ideas for variations welcome

    Seems like no-one is fussed either way, so I'll go for the easiest, which is Option 1

    The date at the top of the odds is the date of the first match in Section 1 (which is the first 16 matches). Everything else is the same as the L1 Betting Competition. £1,000 allocated to cover the Group stages. That means that Section 1 is like the first week in the month, Section 2 is like the second week of the month etc. So, you don't have to bet in each Section, but you must bet at least £1,000 on the Group stage.

    I'll outline the details for the KO stages later

    I might regret not putting a few draws in there but don't like the odds on them.

    You do realise that, if they don't all win, you would have no more to bet with until the ko stage. Just checking before I process
