Rules

1. You must select a team to win in any game from England (EPL down to League 2) or Scotland (SPL down to 3rd Division) each weekend. International/Cup weeks may be void.

2. The game must be a Saturday 3pm KO.

3. You cannot select the same team twice.

4. All selections PMed to me by 12pm on the Saturday. I will then post selections on the public forum. If you forget to pick a selection, you are eliminated. You are also eliminated if you pick a team you have selected in a previous week; PM me after 12; or chose a team not in a 3pm KO.

5. If your selection wins, you move on to the following week. If your team loses or draws, you are out.

6. If your game is postponed then you will be eliminated. To avoid this, send multiple, ordered, selections. As many as it takes to guarantee a selection.  If more than 10 games are called off the game week is cancelled automatically.

7. If in one week every player loses then a rollover will occur and all of the initial players will have the option of paying £20 to be back in the game. No new players may enter.

8. Game finishes when only one player remains.

9. Absolutely no deals. 

10. Gamesmaster's decision is final.

11. All funds to be sent via Bank Transfer before 12pm Saturday 18th August.

Pls note the amendment to rule 6, this is following a dispute last year that I would prefer not to get into again.

Is the aim to start this Saturday?

Yes purlease!

I wouldn't mind having a bash but have never done a bank transfer before (always transferred money on Stars). Is it easy if you do not have online banking?

If you have phone banking it is!

walk into a Halifax bank and deposit the £20 into his account, so yes

Soviestong OWNS a Bank (or works in one) he's your man.

I left the bank :(

Now I can complain about how they ruined the economy & are responsible for global warming etc.

Whoops.

Ok, can you pm me your details and I'll try and get it done on Friday.

Bank details pleaseeee!

Is this starting this weekend?

The OP stated....

11. All funds to be sent via Bank Transfer before 12pm Saturday 18th August.

First season of doing this. Good luck all. Lol at the Rangers bandwagon.

Love Marky.... Top effort

Haha I was grafting until 6 this morning and completely forgot about it......

Good luck boys :D

rofl, geeg Marky.

Carnage in the first week!

FYP

:)

Enjoyed the whole thing, from start to finish.....

PS - thanks for running this, Chris.

Had a great run, horrible day on the betting front.

Can somebody update the list. On my phone and cant do it!!

14 left in

Tyty

Just to be clear. Do all those remaining have to send another twenty quid? Or does the pot stay as is until one man left?

Just to be clear have you read the OP?

week one totally epic

wow Boro away at Oakwell

 8)

Obv not worth the effort til it starts rolling over. Balla

Harsh.

In a bad mood because of the result at Highbury?

Smug smile engaged! :)

Three times. Still not sure so if someone would be so kind as to answer my question that would be appreciated.

No more payments, unless it rollsover: everyone out on the same weekend, when its another 20 quid

Thanks. So if two guys left, they both pick same selection, which loses then its a full rollover and the value hunters can pay twenty quid to get involved?

Only if they entered the first time.

No new entrants to a rollover Greg, just us mugs keep recycling twenties until Chiprich or Horneris scoops :)

Apologies Greg I didn't understand it properly either.

I assumed once you were out that was it and just the two/three remaining guys who got knocked out simultaneously could rebuy.

In defence of my grumpiness I've got tennis elbow and not been able to play golf for over a week  :'(

No worries ralph, I just put it down to you being old.

I am with it now. Must admit thought it was a bit unfair to the guys who started it off to have somdone pounce on the dead money.

Next question:  although Soveit has organised it and is clearly a boss for doing so but doesn't he have an unfair advantage at seeing all selections first?

I do yes. I haven't made it deep much but if it happens we bring in another person to assist.

You would think so but he still always manages to fk it up

Tiny edge for Mr Song for doing all the hard graft seems fair enough to me.

Hey was by no means complaining.... Merely clarifying my thinking. I am a LMS virgin

I need to start following rich more. He crushes.

I wish that was the truth, more a case of ballbag than balla though unfortunately. I was up working until, completely forgot to send and then woke up after lunchtime.

Still I enjoyed my first foray into the competition and I'm still in with a chance :D

Posting from work so might have missed one but pretty sure they didn't send

Was ChipRich

aahhhhhh. kk.

FML!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So as far as I can see the winner is the person who remembers to submit each week. :)

Fml

x2 0-0s and apart from that everyone's teams are winning at the minute. Come on Albion!

carnage

Confirmed.

lol, hope you meant that.

Medal positions! wiiiiii. Anyone up for a chop?  ;) I know, i know, its not last men standing...

Booooo :(

i ninja edited!

Not for me

I'm happy to chop it up.

Loose use of the term ninja since I managed to quote it.

And then there were 3......

Guess no matches next week?

15 September next go?

Fkn Spurs

Fkn Celtic

Is this confirmed?

Confirmed

cool, cool. ty ty

THankful there wasn't a round this week. My pick would have been Swindon :(

redsimon - sheff utd
milligan - Dunfermline
horneris - Manchester United

wiiiiiiiiiiiiiii swerved Sheff U last minute, thought you might pick them Si, thought Brent might stay in Scotland but also hoped he would think that I like the jock footy so might swerve for that reason. Does everyone think like this or am I just massively levelling myself?

Anyways, come on Wigan and Bury!!

sick, I think its going to be heads up by the end of the day.

Just not sure who between.

brave move by milli to go for an away team, speshly with all the short price home teams... 

Bit disappointed by your choice Brent, never thought I'd see you rooting for sc** to win? :)

good luck guys

he apologised when he sent it!

best of luck everybody.  I'm going out & may not be around tomorrow but if we have a winner I will try & ship ASAP, just send me you bank deets.

lol, it wasn't easy Simon

sighs. Wigan kept the dream alive for almost an hour.. Sheff U need a goal though. come on Wigan. #istillbelieve

And then there were 2

I'm coming for you Mill

Yes Man utd V Dunfermline must have had you shitting it this morning. My mans got the balls of a water buffalo. Would not be suprised if my mate picked Scunthorpe Utd next week :)

Let's doooooooooooooo this.

Failure is not an option. Would rather fall down in the first week than lose in the final. #have2win

Cheers for the support Herbie, doesn't matter who I pick, it's destiny. UL Si.

Good luck both of you. My second choice was Arsenal, who I understand won the first set Vs Sounthampton :)

Brent, you really thinking about picking them? terrible decision! I can already taste victory. #mindgames

Ha ha.
Can you give us a list of 5 Milly or does that give the game away.

Can't see anything in the rules against a bit of banter so lets try it.

Brent has Chelsea, Notts County and Wrexham to pick from really. After Stoke's draw vs City and Chelsea drawing vs QPR last weekend plus last night in champs it would be foolish to back them and we all know TheHorner is no fool. Wrexham would be my pick if i was him.. fortunately as I used Oxford and Dunfermline I still have a couple of trump cards to play. wiiiiii

Can you not pick the same team twice in one competition then?

narp

Cool when do you and the horny one put up your selections. Looking forward to this

Lets hope he picks Wrexham then :)


You do realise it would be a non runner?

obv. wont a rollover so more monies when I win.

haha comedy.

Gotta be Chelsea for me tho, ITS GOING TO BE A BLUEEEE DAY

fyp.

ROLLOVER

just to be clear, if you send your selections as

"Team A and if first game is ineligible or called off i will go for xxx"

should team A be ineligible you will be OUT!

Confused? Is that just because we are HU? Or are you saying that's the wrong format?

I normally say Team A, backup B, C, D etc. obv if it's because we are HU then thats fine. Intact I like it a lot. #addedpressure

If first game you pick is, say, a 5:30 KO then you lose as rules state 3pm kick offs. It wouldn't fall onto your 2nd pick. That is only the case if Team A's game is called off.

Just checked back on the PM's & for some reason I thought it was millidonk that sent in the format "if not eligible or postponed" but it wasnt, sorry for the mistake.

Back ups of course are fine but only for postponed games.

will be in for this if if happens again after, do i assume that we will have a fresh season given that we have so long to go in real life football season??

as soon as somebody wins we will go again. 

All understood. Yea If inelgible obv you're out. I get ya now.

sweet, what is the buyin??

£20

[  ] My mind games worked, ended up completely levelling myself, kept swerving my original choices, people are going to lol at this week's selection but the PM is sent now. So what will be will be.

There is only one real choice for Brent and I will be flabbergasted if he doesn't pick them. 

(http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/ff384/Milligan84/battle_zps34ca9204.jpg)

Horneris - Celtic
Millidonk - Alloa

Gl gl

Good luck.....










Dundee & Stranraer



ROLLOVER!!

You just knew the teams picked were gonna look like that. I am guessing you won't let DiscoMonkey in if it is a roll over

Only original members can join in rollover fun!!!

cool I still like to follow Hooper but hope Dundee can pull this out of the bag. Nothing against  Horneris but want to see Millidonks victory dance itt.

Wiiiiii love the herbs. Sitting on the fence is for losers. Together we can defeat him! We are antirailing Birmingham as I was very close to pulling the trigger on them. Gogogogogo Alloa

haha.

I wish you had picked Birmingham this evening.

Holllllllllllllllllld

Celtic missed a penalty. 

Come back to find Alloa 2-0 and Celtic 2-0. Siiiiighs.

If both teams win does the team that scored the most take it? :)

You're a fool Harry Potter Millidonk and you will lose. Everything.

Should be a new rule for next season. Save it dragging on. Next time gadget!

Looking forward to the next battle. #jockfootyftw

You will prob be banned next season for all these silly posts. Settle down pls

:)

The rules say Cup weeks MAY be void.

It's the Scottish cup this weekend are we void or do I have to pick an English team?

the game week goes ahead.  if its FA cup weekend for example the whole game week is generally called off

sighs, geeeeeeeeeeeeeeg, I am terrible with English teams. Last question Soviet, I promise! I was convinced if Brent and I chose the same team when H2H that it automatically goes to a rollover?? but having reread the rules if we choose the same team and that team wins do we just both go through to the next week?

Apologies for being the biggest ballache participant ever.

lol - have you read the op!?  you can both pick the same team, its only if they both lose when a roll over occurs.  as per rule 7

7. If in one week every player loses then a rollover will occur and all of the initial players will have the option of paying £20 to be back in the game. No new players may enter.

Is not generally a good idea for us to pick the same though, its a lose-lose.

What you on about Scottish Cup weekend anyway? I can see a full schedule of Scottish games in the Prem, Div 1 and Div 2. Its only Div 3 and the non league/pub teams in the cup this week lol.

lol, ok ok. I am a bit special sometimes. #confidenceislow wpwp Brent


Scots Div 3 is my speciality ldo. Thought Rangers had a cup game? Agree its lose lose that's why i have tried to be different the whole way through. just trying to decide who you are going to pick then working out if i should take a gamble or not.

When does the rollover start?

fingers crossed next week :)

Haha this has just clicked. Completely forgot they were put into the 3rd. Sometimes I am so special.

Millidonk- gillingham

Horneris - fleetwood

Thought he would go fleetwood or Hull. Got a bad feeling about today,

Lol both 1-0 down.

Hold!!!

Barnet keeper sent off, fleet wood scored peno. Brent runs bad

Lol Gills 10 men. Geeeeeeg. Wp Brent. Was gonna choose Livingston and obv they are winning 2-0. FMEL

ye Livingston were my 2nd choice too.

C'mon Fleetwood and The Dale!

sigh

yay.  ;D

Unfortunately I don't think its going to get me out of the day  :(

Pity we cant use BBC live scores as results there would = rollover :)


New game starting next week Sovietsong?

Wp and a great sweat :(

Should have stuck with Scotland. WP Horneris.

One of them days everything goes wrong. 6/7 on an acca, get shafted in this by an 88min winner, blonde is the only page on the internet that wont load through my laptop, I decide to console myself and play a bit of PS3 which has now decided it doesn't want to switch on. FMFL. #whenwillitend #can'tevenmoanitin

shipped

wp BH

FFS Millidonk.........

I thought I was back on the firm then and gonna get a shot at making the 2nd week :(
