***OFFICIAL PREMIER LEAGUE HANDICAP SWEEPSTAKE - 2011/12 SEASON***

[TightEnd]

SIGN UP NOW FOR THE 2011/12 SEASON
I don't mind sorting this

However time is very short indeed

If I get 20 names before Thursday 9am on here prepared to enter, with bank transfers to me within 7 days (within 48 hours pre season is too optimistic)

No point going to effort if we're getting well under 20 names

Also would be majorly disappointed if someone got a pick they were unahppy with an decided not to forward money which is a risk given that its unlikely all money would arrive pre kick off


If you are in, post.

I make that 6 in so far, 14 spots still to fill, come on peeps get involved!

[TightEnd]

£25 per team, making £500 total.  Prizes are 1st - £250, 2nd £125, 3rd £75, Bottom £50.  I think £25 is fair for a seasons worth of banter, probably not higher enough for some but we do need 20 so its fair I think.  Bottom gets a prize too for a bit of a giggle.  

PM for bank details.  Stars transfer if you have to.

Will update OP with names once paid, but won't release handicaps until we're full up.

Good luck.

How does the handicap bit work out of interest? 

In anyway.

How does the handicap bit work out of interest? 

In anyway.

Each team is given points at the start of the season by Tighty, based on how well/badly they are expected to do over the season.  These points are added to the points each team scores in the league during the season. If he gets the handicap spot on - it'd be a draw and we'd all end up with the same points.

So if you're lucky you'll get the team that 'over-performs'.  Simples.

I put up a list of teams and a points handicap

20 players chose a number each, between 1 and 20

I get a non involved person to allocate a number to each premiership team

you get the team your number corresponds to


Updates monthly on how your team is doing

So we will start with Man U at Zero and Swansea, say with a 50 point headstart and others in between

The teams will be handicapped by me

At the end of the season we'll see who outperforms their handicap, and which team with the points adjusted wins this competition
