I’m afraid GloverRyan has missed the deadline so I can’t accept any forecasts now.

Harsh, let him post IMO. I don't particularly want to possibly avoid relegation by a default.

There are other players to consider. It was staggered deadlines to give everybody at the bottom a fair chance of escape. GloverHarry being the ultimate beneficiary as he's at the bottom.

If I get the chance I'll post a half-time table

Think I will stay in now for a few days and wait for the delivery of the trophy.

It’s on it’s way but don’t tell the wife...

Many thanks for running this Gadget! Zero thanks for pipping me to the final Europa League spot!

Sorry about that...trust me...I'm just as upset at missing out on a Champions League spot.

Well done everyone and thanks Gadge, obviously the money I sent you wasn't enough this season.

I'll let you have the updated price list for next season shortly. You'll notice the Glover boys failed to respond to my blackmail suggested contribution email too .

I have a suggestion for next year's scoring.

Rather than an additional 3 points for a correct score you would only get 1 additional point.

With the current scoring system mattyn1 got to the top in week 9 and stayed there until the end of the season.

Have run the spreadsheet with this new scoring and mattyn and jack were trading places all the way through the season.

As this is the players game we would need a majority to agree.

Anyone got any objections or views ?

On that scoring system who would have won?

One thing I do think needs changing. Getting the right score line is tougher and reaps rewards. If two people are on the same points they should be separated by number of correct score line, then number of correct results, rather than the other way round. Gone A Bit AMG might not agree, Lotus Notes would do I suspect.

I have no dog in any of this except if it should create more work for me.

However, any change to the rules would require 11 of the 20 participants to vote for it as the very first paragrapgh of the rules specifies:

“These rules can be amended/added to by a simple consensus of more than half the people playing all agreeing to the change - this isn't my game, it belongs to everyone playing – UP TO A POINT. Any rule changes which increase the workload for the Administrator can be vetoed by him. You can ask any following administrator to reconsider should that happen.”

So if you all feel the same away about something please make your case (or support somebody else’s case) by posting on here or, if you don’t want to appear the party-pooper, email me and I’ll post the response for you leaving out your name.

Cheers guys.
